There is no system wide setting to do this. It's something the game has to support and then you select it in the game.
I've not checked myself, but you'll have to check the settings for NMS for a 1080p mode. If they haven't added one then you'll have to play it in 4K downsampled to 1080p.
Hello Games added support for the Pro recently, like 1-2 weeks ago. You're supposed to have a 1080/60 mode, or a 4k/30 mode, these aren't available as options in the game per se, you need to force it somehow. Since yesterday, there's a frame limiter toggle available for 30/60 too. Iirc, there is no supersampling in NMS specifically, even with this new patch. You're either in HDR/4K mode or in 1080/60 (which is supposed to be pretty much entirely stable according to DF), but my framerate is kinda acting like the 4k/30 here and there, as reported by DF. So it's not enough to set the screen to 1080 from within the system settings?

Question about Fire Emblem Fates DLC:
I have a physical copy of Birthright and used that as the key to download the other two routes (which as far as I can tell are connected to the memory card and not the system itself).
I'm selling my 3DS now with the game and want the new owner to have access to all three games. I want to know unlinking my Nintendo account to that 3DS will cause it to lose access to the other two routes in Fates, or if as long as they has the memory card and cartridge, he'll have access to the three routes.
Any help would be appreciated on this!

Depends on what you mean by missing? The true final boss can be missed since the game puts you in ng+ immediately after beating the game. Chalice Dungeons can be missed if you don't do them :lol Not sure if ng+ locks you out of them but I think so (so you need to re-unlock them). The weapon trophy can be missed for one playthrough (and needs to be done on one character) if you screw up an npc quest, it's stuff like that:

N3DS works with microSD. You can copy the old card's content onto the new one. There are other options as well, like copying everything wireless during the transfer. That takes its time though, and the new 3DS don't come with an AC adapter.

What's the biggest entertainment franchise that has never had any official video games released to do with it?
This came to mind earlier so I figured GAF might have some decent answers.

Yamaha? I was thinking Samsung but I'm pretty sure they did some collaboration with Nintendo

I was thinking morelike...films, cartoons, movies etc. Like, there's been no games to do with Breaking Bad as far as I know (then again, mobile gaming...)
But the hardware side of things is another interesting question.

Oh, yeah... That's what franchise means :facepalm:
I think it might be Saturday Night Live, honestly. Longest-running, most-popular series I can think of without any video game tie-ins. Unless there's an old Mr. Bill PC game floating around out there somewhere.
It shouldn't matter.
Here's some info and a guide:

I doubt anyone reading this has played this game, let alone played it recently, but am I the only one that finds this game to be ridiculously difficult?
It's a shitty licensed game from 2003 so no talks about it and there aren't many videos of it. So I'm just wondering if anyone else considered this game a nightmare to beat.
The levels range from 5 minutes to nearly half an hour to beat and there are no checkpoints. One simple screw up in many levels can kill you since a lot of enemies/hazards can either kill you in one hit or in a matter of seconds due to no invincibility frames. Bosses are brutal displays of developers not giving a single fuck and they're stealth segments that require trial and error to pass.
Like I said, it's a crappy licensed game from the PS2-era so no one gives a crap about it. I'm just wondering if anyone else remembers this and if they had trouble playing it. Since I remember it giving me hell back when it came out.

I've been waiting and waiting for Bravely Default to go on sale on the eshop here in europe but it doesn't ever seem to happen. Should I just bite the bullet and order it from amazon?
Too late, I bought it. If I don't like it, I can always resell it.

Splatoon 2 is on the way soon, and that got me thinking:
What was the *last* numbered sequel Nintendo released? Mario Kart 8?
And what was the last 2-numbered sequel Nintendo released? NSMB2?
It struck me that Nintendo seem to have moved heavily towards subtitles over sequel numbering of late, with only Mario Party having been numbered continually (Mario Kart going through the Super Circuit - Double Dash era for a time!)
And, to take it a bit further, I wonder if this is something Nintendo are tending to do more for their multiplayer-focussed titles, since it's MK, MP and now Splatoon that are getting numbered iterations, and outside that field I can only think of a few games that get them - the last single-player one springing to mind at the moment being Pikmin 3.

Star Fox Zero? Or if that doesn't count Picross 3D Round 2.
They also have Xenoblade Chronicles 2 coming up. As far as we know that's not multiplayer focussed.
I still have the trial installed, if that counts.

Can anyone identify the game the GB crew are playing here (at 11:43)?

It's called "Submerged".

Thanks! 
Could be the Sleeping Dogs ghost DLC as well
My ps4 sometimes crashes in the middle of a game. Is there a good way to prevent this, or at least reduce the occurence of it happening?
It gives me some kind of error code and goes back to the dashboard.
It doesn't happen often. Once every 75 hours of game time maybe. But it is enough for me to notice.

In Madden, is picking the Patriots as your franchise the equivalent of playing on easy mode?

Hopefully this doesn't get lost on the last page:
I'm playing the Legend of Zelda on the NES classic and I'm wondering if there's any sort of overworld map that you can get?
The game UI suggests there's an overworld map because it indicates you location but I can't find any resources online that says there's an actual overworld map item.

No. You only get maps for the dungeons. The map indicator on the overworld is just so you have a general idea of where you are.
Edit: I think there was an incomplete one in the manual, though.
The game originally came with a map so just use Google. It won't be cheating.

OK. I remember having the map as a kid but my memory just thought it was a novelty considering I'm staring at a blank map in the corner of the UI.
Makes sense that it's just for reference.
Yeah, there are plenty of resources online so I'll use one of those.
I don't think so. The game was designed to have players help each other out.
The stream will be the frame buffer from the PS4 plus optionally the camera. At best you could use the camera to film the tv while set to your Wii U. The main screen will still be whatever PS4 game you've got running.

I didn't play a lot of RPGs and not that familiar with genre. However, I want to try one of the 2D Final Fantasy games (Never played any 2D one). Which one do you recommend? And what version (what console)?
Although try and get the *actual* map from the game box, because a bunch of that is deliberately 'uncharted' for the player to fill in. If you've got the right one, the filled-in sections are sort-of pyramid shaped.

FFIV Complete on the PSP and FFVI on the Wii VC (bonus points if you have it hooked up to a CRT). FFIV Complete has updated graphics and the After Years episodes included, so if you want a traditional version of the game I'd recommend the GBA version.
FFV is supposedly really popular too, especially on GAF, but the ideal version for that is the GBA version, which is hard to find these days.
If you enjoy the traditional/pre VII FF games, I'd recommend you try FFIX as well. They're very similar in structure.

Is Marvel Heros a bit like Marvel Ultimate Alliance But Online?
I just bought those old two for the PS4 today having only played one briefly, but both was on sale and by coincidence see the trailer for Marvel Heroes coming gor consoles soon and thought hmm wonder if it plays the same but online and with new Characters or is there more to it?

It's a f2p Diablo clone with microtransactions, to put it simply.

Is their a method of downloading all the dlc connected to a single game on the PS4 with a single click? I brought the Arkham Knight season pass and it essentially makes all the dlc free, but you still need to click to download each one individually. All ~40 of them. I predict it would take me somewhere in the range of 15-20 minutes just going through and clicking each files so I was wondering if their was an easier method to initiate a mass download of each item for Arkham Knight on the PS4 store. I did some google searching but couldn't find a perfect answer and wanted one before I waste a fair amount of time doing it individually.

I don't think you can. Driveclub had a ludicrous amount of DLC that I had to download individually. The good news is that once you've done it, if you delete the game and reinstall it, it'll install all your DLC too.
I guess you could try that, and delete the game data and then restore it, but I'm not 100% sure it'll work.
No. But make sure to use the web store to download them all since you can add them to your cart with one click (each). Sadly you can't have more than 10 items at once in your cart, but it's still a lot faster than doing it on console.

Does the gameboy color screen degrade over time and usage like the original?
I still use mine from time to time, but I'm starting to worry about whether I should continue or storing it the way it is now.
