It's now possible to start the Wii U Homebrew Channel / Launcher from the Homescreen, thanks to the recently released Haxchi hack by well know 3DS / Wii U hacker smealum.

Interested? if so we've put together a easy to follow tutorial that will take you though the process from start to finish.

The tutorial will teach you how to install a permanent Homebrew Channel icon on your 5.5.1 Wii U. The end result will be you can load the Homebrew Launcher from the Wii U’s home screen, just like any other app or game. The Homebrew Launcher will load first time, every time, unlike the unreliable web browser exploit we have had to use until now.

Note: Updated 1st December 2016 with a much easier tutorial, linked to above.

Trading From Pokemon Go To Sun and Moon a Possibility?

For fans of the traditional Pokemon 3DS games who are also enjoying Pokemon Go, all your miles (kilometers) of walking to find and hatch Pokemon in the real would could pay off in Pokemon Sun and Moon too.

Junichi Masuda, series producer mentioned earlier this year they were looking in to a way Pokemon Go could interact with the core game series, it looks like that will be a possibility in the future.

One of the met locations on Pokemon Sun / Moon is "Pokemon Go", suggesting something was able to be implemented and it will eventually be possible to import Pokemon from Go, to Sun and Moon. We would presume via Pokebank, which will be updated early next year to allow importing of Pokemon from previous 3DS Pokemon Games and the first generation of Pokemon games released on the Virtual Console earlier this year.

By hex editing your Sun or Moon save game, its possible to view all the in-game met locations for Pokemon, as shown below:

PlayStation Vita and PlayStation TV 3.60 Firmware Hacked (HENkaku Hack)

  • 5,910
  • 0

The PlayStation Vita and PlayStation TV on firmware 3.60 have been hacked. This is a native hack, meaning it's the actual Vita / PS TV is hacked and not the emulated PSP, meaning any Vita / PlayStation TV currently released to date is now capable of running homebrew.

The new hack, known as "HENKaku", will require the following:

  • A Vita/PSTV running 3.60
  • A memcard with at least 10MB of free space (internal memory is currently not supported!)
  • An FTP client
  • An internet connection
Yifan Lu who released the hack had this to say about it:

HENkaku simply lets you install homebrew as bubbles in LiveArea. It is a native hack that disables the filesystem sandbox. It installs molecularShell, a fork of VitaShell that lets you access the memory card over FTP and install homebrew packages (which we create as VPK files). With vita-toolchain, developers have access to the same system features licensed developers have access to as well as...

PS4 Kernel Exploit Released

The BADIRET exploit has been released for the PS4, this is a Kernel Exploit which gives full access to the PS4 hardware.

This exploit was designed to work on PS4 firmware version 1.76 originally, however it may work up to firmware 2.01 if a different entrypoint to run the exploit is released.

Team Fail0verflow who have a full Linux distro running on the PS4 decided to also release the missing pieces from their Linux booting on PS4 talk. This means in theory everything is now out there for the public to get Linux running on the PS4.

As the PS4 is capable of booting Linux, it is also capable of booting a patched Orbis OS, with security restrictions removed. That essentially means homebrew in the PS4's Orbis OS. The PS4 scene is in its infancy, however this is a big leap forward, especially as things are now out in the public. You only need to look at the 3DS scene to see how that progressed!

The Digiex team have invested in an exploitable PS4 on firmware 1.76 in the hopes we can...

Yesterday Pokemon Red, Blue, Yellow and Green we're re-released for the Nintendo 3DS on the Eshop. These are essentially the same games you played on the original Game Boy up to 20 years ago depending on where about's in the world you are from.

However the games have been updated to allow trades over local Wi-Fi and another nice bonus is that you will be able to import your Pokemon in to Pokemon Moon and Sun which will be released towards the end of this year.

As side effect of this re-release is that it gives people with a hacked 3DS a chance to import their save game from the original Pokemon games, either from an emulator or actually dumped from a physical game cartridge.

This means for the first time ever Pokemon from games in the first generation will be able to brought up to the current generation of games. Pretty awesome for the older fans of the series who still have their save games.

We have created a tutorial that will teach you how to import your...

A beta build of Star Wars Battlefront III for the Xbox 360 has been leaked to the internet by Reddit / Twitter use ProtoFaggot. This was a game very much wanted by the community, however ultimately canceled before release. It's worth mentioning this is not the same as the 2015 release.

The build number is 70217 which is quite playable on RGH hacked Xbox 360's with RGloader and on 360 devkits, however at a low framerate. The leaked build currently does not work on Jtag / RGH hacked Xbox 360's running Freeboot or the Xbox 360 emulator Xenia.
