      That's a good one! It's also great to see a pi joke that's not a food pun.

        BTW...the game Eador: Genesis is free today on GoG.com! This is in celebration of Gremlins, Inc. being added for purchase through GoG!

        Also Dungeon 2 is free on HumbleBundle.com as well! This games is kind of like Dungeon Keeper (one of my favorites from back in the day).

        And...you can get Party Hard 2 Alpha for free at this link (HumbleBundle.com)! Just scroll over halfway down the page and enter your email address.

            Pac-Mania is kicking my butt for this week's MAME ROW. Mother is fantastic and I'm going to be continuing it.

            Does anyone have a "New" 3DS XL? I have been thinking about picking one up as I see you can get them on eBay for around $100. It'd mainly be for platformers and RPGs. I also see that there's a pretty active homebrew/emulation scene for them, but in looking at the installation process it seems like homebrew is pretty easy, but custom firmware is pretty involved. I really wouldn't want to brick the thing just to play some backups or old SNES games.

              I think it's unable to make you earn cheevos using it. :-P

                @obsidianspider I just hacked my old 3DS, the process is simple as long as you follow directions. If you have an old 3ds, you are limited to NES, Genesis, GB and GBC.

                  does it have internet connection?

                  is it able to run RetroArch?

                    answering my own question:

                    is it able to run RetroArch?

                    I think yes. Look here:

                      @meleu Yes, you have internet connection

                      Retroarch runs like Internet Explorer. You'd be better off running another emulator like BlargSNES.

                        Take it easy bro, there's no need to be so offensive! :-)

                        Thanks for the info.

                                @lilbud "SNES9x for Old 3DS" is a better option than blargsnes and it's still alive. It got an update last month.

                                  @lilbud which method did you use, if you don't mind me asking. On my daughters 3DS, we use the Ninjhax to get to the homebrew and emulators (11.3.0-ish firmware).

                                    Sweet. I have a bid on an auction that ends on Tuesday that comes with some games and a case. If I can get into one for under $100 I'll do it.

                                      @celly I used ninjhax as well, now all I need is a flash cart

                                      @obsidianspider New 3DS or Old 3DS?

                                      New 3DS can be hacked but the chance of a brick is higher

                                          Now I will try to play with python and try to implement what I commented in this topic.

                                          I've made it. Testers, please!

                                            @meleu @obsidianspider How do you get the builds? I am new, but using this forum, I plan to make a NES build out of my old NES that isn't working.

                                            N64 emulation is the next step :)
