      No, the game data itself is 1 TB, but 29TB is their code to change colors

    Summary:

    • Gen10 is on the works
    • Switch 2’s internal codename is Ounces
    • GF and ILCA are co-producing a MP battle-focused game, codenamed Synapse
    • source code for HG/SS and B2/W2, plus map editor for R/S/E were leaked

    Conjecture: I wouldn’t be surprised if the TeraLeak in question wasn’t planned out by Nintendo and Game Freak, to distract people from the fact that Nintendo is trying to harass a competitor out of the market and suing emulators back and right.

      Sorry, but at its worst, Nintendo is lawful evil. There’s no way this is intentional.

        It does! And it would be damn great fuel for the ROMHacks that Nintendo has a burning hate against.

        Source code was leaked?

        TFW it’s just Pokemon Red copied and pasted 35 times, in Word 2003, with mail merge tokens to replace character, location, and skill names:

        Hoping this gives the DS romhacking side a good kick in the pants. It’s amazing what the community has done with R/S/E, but I’d love to see what they can get up to with fewer hardware limitations (while not going the full PC fangame route)

    I’d be cautious about running any “leaked” software directly, great way to identify the modding community if it dials home, maybe run it in a vm, behind a vpn? Unless it’s just source code in which case carry on

      I wouldn’t run it on original hardware but are there any known attack vectors where malware infects you via a ROM that runs in a trusted emulator?

        There was a vulnerability in Project64 so a malicious ROM could escape outside of the emulator. So while unlikely, it’s certainly possible.

    Everything that old should be public-domain anyway. Might as well publish the behind-the-scenes stuff as well.
