20w ago - Today D3cH with help from aerosoul94 has shared a tutorial on PS3 Debug / DEX real-time PlayStation 3 game memory modding for those interested with details and a video demo below.

To quote: Hello everyone! First off I want to say special thanks to aerosoul94, we discovered this few months ago, we did a lot of mods, and now this is the time for release!

Ok, so now I'll explain how to edit memory of PS3 games in real time.

Tools needed:

• A PS3 with a DEX firmware
  
• ProDG Target Manager and ProDG Debugger (they got leaked, see HERE)
  
• make_fself.exe
  
• The ELF file of the game you want to mod
  

Your PS3 must be wired, it will not work if you're using WiFi

Ok first, start ProDG Target Manager and go on "Search For Targets" then press the refresh button to start scanning, if all is ok your PS3 should be detected, just right click on it and move it to "Debugging Station" group then double click on it, it will add your PS3 into your targets list.

26w ago - Following up on the Wii U Specifications with the US launch being today, NeoGAF user Trike has already uncovered what appears to be a Wii U Miiverse Debug Menu with details below.

Also of note, a Nintendo Wii U Teardown Guide is now available followed by a second Nintendo Wii U Teardown Tutorial and Geoff Keighley of GameTrailers TV has Tweeted that: The Wii U Firmware update is apparently about 5 gigs. No wonder it takes about an hour+ to download.

Additionally, the Wii U is able to run Nintendo Wii homebrew at launch (WiiXplorer ELF) and run Wii U games Off an SD Card, as demonstrated in the videos below!
