Has anyone actually found the NSP/XCI somewhere?

I’ve found an update file but the base game doesn’t seem to be anywhere I have access to.

    lol Nintendo are the only ones who get their games pirated, because they use antique hardware.

      Also, I feel like they kinda deserve it for being global vexatious litigants and squashing free fan projects at every opportunity.

      It’s not the “antiquity” of the hardware. It’s that the chipset was known and they forgot to lock the bootloader.

        That’s what happens when your core manufacturing philosophy is “withered technology”. You get old tech people have figured out.

          Not a nintendo fan boy, but i will say i love that they focus more on good gameplay than having the flashiest graphics

            I loved that the Gameboy was designed to survive a fall from the average shirt pocket. I love that the Wii controllers pushed gyroscopic technology so far that it allowed the explosion of quadcopters. I loved the idea of 3d through rapid aspect switching.

            I loved when Nintendo pushed boundaries, not just through hardware but through gameplay. I enjoy and appreciate the Nintendo polish

            I agree with your sentiment wholeheartedly - good gameplay is much more important than flashy graphics. But the polish was nice - pushing boundaries is what made the difference

          ???
          Consoles get unlocked sooner or later.
          There’s already exploits circulating for the PS5. People already have game rips running. You’re gonna tell me that’s “Withered technology” ?
