Slowly getting back into playing my collection lately since i have a little more freetime. I’m see there are so many consoles out there that can be modded to unlock certain features.
I recently modded my Xbox 360 and love not having to deal with my discs anymore and being able to see CPU and GPU temps to avoid damaging the sensitive GPU.
I also have a modded Wii and it’s the same situation. No need to deal with discs or worry if they have data rot. So much easier and less concern as my physical copies age.
I see the OG Switch can be modded and looking into that, seems like you can actually push it to do 60 FPS instead of the 30 it’s locked into when you buy one if you overclock it.
I’ve also heard the PSP and 3DS are awesome to mod, but don’t own them yet.
What do you all think is your favorite?
Honestly my “favorite” is my SteamDeck. In that it doesn’t really need to be “modded” just install some software and away you go. At certain points ive made it into:
The PSP was my first back in the day. It was awesome!! 3DS is also a close second. I think I have a ton of homebrew games. Ive seen some impressive wii/wii u stuff lately. And the switch / switch 2 mod scenes are pretty cool. Switch for now is the easiest with all the homebrew stuff people have been putting out. And the switch emulator(s?) that are coming out are pretty impressive. Was able to play a couple of games after getting and compiling the latest releases. Hard to find but totally worth it.
Im having a blast with the miyoo mini plus playing pico 8 games lately.
