NX-Mod-Manager Latest Releases Updated to version 2.1.4 on September 17, 2025. This is a local MOD manager for the Nintendo Switch, similar to SimpleModManager. It also uses a copy-based strategy to manage local MODs according to predefined file paths. The reason for using copy instead of move is the same as the author of SimpleModManager: the mods2 folder must be preserved as a backup for MODs. The software supports multiple languages and can automatically switch according to the system language. However, please note that all languages except Chinese are machine-translated, since the author does not speak other languages. If you need to refine the translations, you ca…

I know there's an official remaster of this game, but somehow the original PS2 version is more nostalgic for me. I used only one texture from the official remaster, all the others (~16000 textures) are more detailed in my version. The project is 99.99% complete, only one superboss is missing, and the 90+ levels of the Trials. To Do list: - Improve the guest characters' portraits - Improve the widescreen UI - Find some missing textures It is important that the HD textures were made for the Japanese International - Zodiac Job System version (+ English translation)! Enable the Widescreen option in the game's config menu! Install: Download the latest Pcsx2 nightly build! …

D3Hack --- I'm very pleased to be able to release this, and I look forward to feedback from anyone who has the patience to go poking in the source. In theory it can be ported to other versions, there's currently 373 offsets betweenoffsets.hppandoffsets_patch_only.inlbut they are not all necessary. There's lots of unneeded code in resolution.hpp for the time being, I've been trying for days to fix the invisible character model face/nearest-limb but it's proven very difficult. This project would have been impossible withoutexlaunch! Caveat (in case you didn't read the repo/screenshot):3D textures are unable to render in this engine above 2048px on the Switch a…

A new update for the popular NES ROM hack Sonic the Hedgehog Vol. 2 has been released, directly implementing changes requested by its player base. The headline feature is a new optional mode that disables the spin-dash acceleration, fundamentally altering the game’s feel and platforming mechanics. In a user-friendly move, the update now includes a patch to enable EPSM audio directly within the Mesen 2 emulator, saving players the hassle of switching to another program for the enhanced sound experience. The patch also squashes several bugs discovered by the speedrunning community, including glitches that allowed Sonic to phase through walls and a rare issue that would caus…

This is a HUGE update from the previous version that was published in this “News” section, and one of the biggest Rom Hacking projects out there. The bosses Rat King and Karai are now fully integrated into the game, as if they were always intended to be played! This is essentially Street Fighter’s “Champion Edition” equivalent to TMNT: Tournament Fighters. The two boss characters have been fully balanced to be even with the rest of the cast; their move sets have been fully fleshed out giving them a lot more new normal attacks and even light/heavy variants on their special moves; there are now huge graphical updates to include their body portraits on the character select s…

Capcom has a variety of beloved franchises that haven't seen much in the way of new entries as of late. A financial report from Capcom looking back on 2025 shows that the company did well, due to the successes of new Resident Evil, Street Fighter, and Monster Hunter titles. The higher-ups at the company, however, believe that Capcom needs to have more frequent entries into some of its more stagnant IPs in order to continue growing in the years ahead. Specifically, it looks like we'll be seeing remakes, new games, and ports of three series in the future: Ace Attorney, Devil May Cry, and Mega Man. Capcom also plans to expand on one of its development offices by 2027, leadin…

This one’s for all you Black Mages out there. A number of Black Mage weapons (and stats!) have received well-earned love, along with something new - a major overhaul to boss magic resistance. Black Mage/Blue Rose will finally be able to play a greater role beyond buffing their colleagues during boss fights! Also, there are a few Dryad buffs…just to make sure she’s as spritely as can be. “Another release so soon,” you ask? Well yes, but this one is special. It marks a major turning point for the project - the ending. It is time to move on. While new ideas and minor fixes will transition to being collected over time, please note - bug reports AND feedback will still be read…

Ten weeks after it was first announced, the bumper Gran Turismo 7 Spec III update is now available to players worldwide, bringing a host of new content and features to get to grips with. If you didn’t check in ahead of time and missed out on the preload — only the second time a GT7 update has been available this way — you’re looking at an update of a hair under 9GB on PS4 and just over 15GB on PS5, somewhat reflecting the very different contents on the two consoles. Of course we did hear quite a bit about the Spec III update and the Power Pack DLC in yesterday’s announcements alongside the preload, but there’s always finer details missing until the update goes live and th…

After what feels like the longest two months in the game’s life to date, Gran Turismo 7’s Spec III update is now available as a preload ahead of being unlocked on December 4. It’s only the second time we’ve seen a preload available for a Gran Turismo 7 update, with the previous being the 1.54 update last November that brought PS5 Pro enhancements. That was a 32GB monster, while Spec III is a comparatively slim 15GB on PS5 and a daintier 9GB on PS4 — but still comfortably on the podium of biggest updates. The December 4 date is one we’ve been expecting for a good long while, but has now been confirmed both by Kazunori Yamauchi and other official game channels by way of the…

As it's almost the case with every big Nintendo release, the next big upcoming title from Nintendo, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, has been leaked online ahead of release. However, the leak didn't come in a date that many people expected. Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is set to release tomorrow, December 4th, for both Nintendo Switch 1 and Nintendo Switch 2, with the Nintendo Switch 1 version of the game having leaked online today. However, in contrast with previous big Nintendo releases, this leak came just a day prior from the official release of the game, while previously, huge Nintendo releases were known to be leaked several days, if not weeks ahead of release, making the title…

The Pokémon Company had revealed another new Mega Evolution from Pokémon Legends: Z-A‘s upcoming DLC, Mega Dimension. Mega Lucario Z has appeared! The group also revealed a new extra side mission, allowing players to catch the Legendary Mewtwo. Mega Lucario Z is a newly discovered form of Lucario. It was determined to be a Mega Evolution because of how its form changes through exposure to a Mega Stone and how its increase in power far outshines your average Lucario. Now, Mega Lucarios are already present in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, but this Mega Lucario Z is new to the DLC. Z Mega Evolutions, such as this one, need less time to fire off moves but burn through Mega Power ver…

After many years revisiting Final Fantasy X-2, I decided to fulfill an old dream: to bring an English translation of the International version to the PS2. This game never had an official English version on the PS2, although an HD Remaster version was later released for the PS Vita and PS3. This was the initial inspiration for me to accept this challenge, the goal was simple, but ambitious. The path to get there wasn't easy. Anyone who has ventured into PS2 modding knows that it tests our patience, our creativity, and, above all, our persistence. Countless nights were spent studying structures, testing, correcting, and trying again, but I had help from very important peo…

A brand-new set of Gran Turismo 7 Weekly Challenges is now available — or over the next few hours, depending on how west you live — in likely the final set before the switch-up brought about by the impending Spec III update. Weekly Challenges are a bonus game mode, made available once you’ve finished the main GT Cafe career, and currently offering a selection of five World Circuits races for you to tackle. Four of them are existing events, with a fifth “Special Event” created just for the week. You’ll earn additional rewards, alongside the credits for your finishing positions in each race, with more lucrative gifts the more you complete within the seven-day window. Gran T…

It’s now been confirmed that the bumper Gran Turismo 7 Spec III update will be arriving in the first week of December, exactly as we’ve been suspecting for a little while now. Spec III has been in the works for some time, with the most-recent game update being the 1.63 patch sent out in late September. Shortly thereafter, off the back of the GTWS Berlin event, series creator Kazunori Yamauchi announced the surprise Spec III update. We’ve known quite a bit about it for a while, with that initial teaser revealing four of the eight — yes, eight — new cars, and two brand-new circuits making their series debut, and some more coming to light since. There’s also been a few featu…

After many years, Final Fantasy X-2 International + Last Mission has received a fully English version for PS2. This game features many exclusive features, such as new dresspheres, a new garment grid, new monsters, a new secret game mode called Last Mission, an extra menu that allows you to capture monsters, train them, learn their stories, and use them in battles (fully playable), an exclusive tournament with powerful monsters, and new missions. This project was created by Gledson999 using tools he developed himself, but it also included image tools by Gdkchan and kernel text tools by Nameless. kr_ps2 also contributed, making several important fixes for the game’s smooth …
