/r/switchHaxing https://ift.tt/2GSYjR8Request/Info - OpenXcom - Looking into homebrew development and wanted to port it
EDIT: Doing a little more research into the idea, it seems there is an android port of OXCE+ which is Open Xcom Extended, which might be possible to run on the android switch port, going to setup android now just to test, I'll report back in a bit.This is my first ever Reddit post so forgive me if I get it a bit wrong but here goes.I'm a huge fan of the OG Xcom and was looking into trying to port the open source version written in C++/SDL to the switch, but while doing research on the subject it seems that while C++ may work and SDL was ported for switch the SDL code is only for people who are licensed under Nintendo's NDA for development, unless I'm misunderstanding something? I'm not a coder but I really wanted to try my hand at this as a fun side project but now it seems I am unable to...I had some ideas, because it is a mouse+keyboard based game there is no controller support so that would have to be added in, left stick could be cursor control while binding the buttons besides A to certain actions but obviously that could be worked out after words. The biggest thing though that makes this seem like an awesome idea is the touch screen, being able to use the touch screen to play would make it play almost exactly the same as the DOS version because it used mostly mouse control, I think to alleviate some touch screen woes if playing with the battlescape scale higher than normal a UI scale slider should be added to make it easier to tap the icons at the bottom of the game.I'd really appreciate any info about this subject and would like to request if someone could attempt this in my stead if I'm right that I can't try to do it myself.https://wiki.libsdl.org/Installation#Nintendo_Switch This is the page I read about SDL.

/r/switchHacks https://ift.tt/2YO4V9PHow To: Switchroot with larger FAT32 partition or exTANt partition
This is a temporary guide that will be expanded more when I'm at my computer, with links and more in-depth instructions. If you want to do it now, use a lot of google to understand it.1) Etch Switchroot image to SDCARD, use the 32gb image if you don't need a lot of android storage.2) Burn "Gparted live" to cd or usb.3) Boot into gparted. Suggested method for windows users(most of you) is to hold down the shift key while clicking to restart your computer, and telling it to boot the usb or cd drive.4) in gparted, shift all partions that are not "hos_data" to the end of your sd card.5) Resize hos_data to take the newly available space.6) shift the remaining partitions back to where they were.7) sudo gdisk -l in terminal8) give your sd card a hybrid mbr-gpt table.9) you're done. This can be done even after you've down the initial android installation.

Fake Pro Controller Mod.
I recently bought a fake pro controller because I couldn't afford the real one, it's really good but I was just wondering would it be possible to replace the rumble motors with the ones from the genuine pro controller? Also would it be at all possible to add an nfc reader? I realize that this might seem a bit much to try and do but I was just wondering if it was actually possible. Thanks.
