Everdrives have been around for a long while now, so there’s no doubt that you’ve already heard of them. But if you haven’t, the Everdrive series from Krikzz are flash carts for retro consoles that allow running of your collection of cartridges on one cart. That means if you have shelves of SNES, …

There are always systems sitting on your shelf that don’t get much use. And why? Well most likely you love the system, but have beaten every game in your collection and retro games are expensive now. And maybe you want to play games from other regions but your PS1 can’t …

The Nintendo Switch Homebrew scene has been taking off but like all of them, it’s in slow strides and baby steps, plus needing FW300 doesn’t help when they are getting harder and harder to find. Well, one man couldn’t wait for The Homebrew scene and built his own PiSwitch. With …

Tons of retro game cartridges nowadays are just the game with no box. Or if they’re in a box, it’s a cardboard one that is slowly disintegrating. Or maybe it’s a plastic box from 25 years ago that is slowly crumbling to bits. Naturally, you’ll want to protect your game …

Here at Hackinformer, we review a lot of Switch games so that you can make certain that you only buy and fill your limited Switch space with good games. Today we have another game to satisfy your wonder, and that game is Qbik ($4.99, Forever Entertainment). Some of you may know …

Recently, I came across a video about the mod that I’ll be reviewing while on YouTube. I was recently swooned by my Dreamcast (again) and was looking to see what mods were out in the wild in 2017. I saw a video on the channel ‘The Dreamcast Junkyard’ and I was blown …

We are all more than aware by now that the hakchi software from Cluster_M was a godsend to both the NES Classic and the SNES Classic. For those who aren’t aware, I have a quick history lesson. You can add more ROMs to your systems! So, the NES Classic easily fit …

You all may have heard of the “falling out” that Amazon and Google had recently. I suppose in some regards they are competitors in terms of the products that they sell. But the bottom line is that recently the customer got the crap end of the deal. Anyone who owns …

I feel like Vita homebrew developer theheroGAC just doesn’t quit. If there is anyone helping keep the Vita scene alive, he’s definitely one of them. Yesterday he dropped another stable update to his Cross-Connection app for the Vita. So what does Cross-Connection do for the Vita? How does it help …

If you happened upon and purchased the Super Retro-cade from Retro-Bit, you were definitely happy about the 90 included games. There are just so many of them and this time around, they aren’t vaporware or shovelware. The system is just leaps and bounds better than their previous foray into the …

It was pretty big news on Christmas Eve morning that a jailbreak for iOS 10.x through 10.3.x came out. However, there are always issues with initial releases, so I refrained from reporting on it. I wanted to wait until the bugs were reported and patched a bit more before posting …

Some of you may think that since Apple has been adding lots of features that that means that the jailbreaking scene is dead. On the contrary, today’s release, though not a full-fledged jailbreak (and still in the beta stage), shows that there is still a love for tinkerers to get into …
