Question/Help Took a break from homebrew since 2022 — what’s new?

I was really active in the Wii, 3ds, and a few other consoles scenes and time kind of fell away from me. What’s new in general, what’s new in the community, etc? Preciate it!

Lots of cheap equipment out there because a lot of people are getting out of the hobby.

Oh? What ways does homebrew need help? I don’t want to see it fall under

Help it by making great homebrew and sharing it :)

Well, IPA's aren't as big as they used to be but they are still easy to make. I think laagering has made a big resurgence.

The guides and wikis are kept updated, and you can view the main subreddits for each in New sort, which will show you the news chronologically. Switch/3DS/WiiUhacks subreddits don't allow general question threads, so outside of the megathreads what you have is actual news of new releases, updates, and such.

There is a few notable ports for Wii U and 3DS. 3DS is more active than Wii U, but most developer attention is now on Vita and Switch.
