Today, we can change and swap the kernal about and try out new things a lot faster and easier than it used to be.
We’ll go over the different levels of things that can be done, from experimenting with simple kernal code changes to options for swapping out the installed and in-use version!
Let’s take a little trip, and look at some stuff that’s available for our beloved consoles, for both original physical and emulation, with a specific focus on performance and convenience.
A cartridge to LOAD cartridges, for the C64!
Not a drive replacement, but a way to keep and launch your single PRGs and CRT files easily. Adds MIDI and COM capability too!
Diving headfirst into the Playstation 4 to unlock its full potential!
The XBox 360, arguably the king of the game consoles, was a big part of many childhood memories. It was of course usurped by new pretenders to the throne, and seemingly forgotten. But he ain’t dead yet; let’s infuse this machine with a little hack magic to keep the legacy alive for another generation!
It seemed like everybody either had or at least dreamed of having a Nintendo DS/3DS, and the Nintendo Store closing felt like a betrayal, especially when those classic titles went to the new store, as if this little powerhouse were irelevant. Screw that, I’m going to keep the experience alive as long as I can!
You can have a legitimate and solid DOS box for super cheap with only a little bit of effort, plus a spare old USB thumb drive and a few bucks for an internal upgrade!
The Nintendo Wii. An odd duck at the time, but there’s no denying that it had some interesting titles, and the first models were 100% backward compatible with the Gamecube library.
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could still play the library without the old school optical disc hassles and hobbled display capabilities?
Yeah, read on to see how you can do just that!
