Today, I was playing The Simpsons arcade game via 3 player using the gamepad, a ps4 controller, and an Xbox one controller, with my 2 kids. 👌 I was telling them kids used to have to actually leave their house and pay a ton of quarters at arcades to play these games lol.

Well, except for the initial setup, which always seems to force the user to go through several steps manually.

      It's easy to uninstall Hakchi. It automatically makes a backup of the unaltered kernel in system memory. Go into Hakchi, click the uninstall option and you'll be back to stock unit. Then use the Project LUNAR software if you want to install that. I do however agree with the other post that I think Hakchi is better and gets more updates, but you have the freedom to install what you want on it.

    Hello, is there any way of reverting it? I mean, i bought one from second hand recently and it came with hackchi already installed. Is there anything I can do to remove hackchi and set it to its original state? o.o
