omg, can I use my 3ds to play my old music cds now?! can it emulate a cd-player?
But who would really take the time to make such a stupid homebrew just for fooling people. I mean I know a few trolls who really have dedication to being a douche and stoop to really low levels, but this would be such a wasteful act that just wouldn't be worth it even for being a troll..It's not that hard to make a matching homebrew. You can even use the DSGM and display a picture at the bottom screen.
I posted it when the threat started. Now I belive that it's no fake. But I think that it's not souch a big problem to waste 5-10 minutes to troll the hacking scene.But who would really take the time to make such a stupid homebrew just for fooling people.

Yes I've gone deeper into this thread so I see that. I still think it's a stupid waste, but hey opinion is opinionI posted it when the threat started. Now I belive that it's no fake. But I think that it's not souch a big problem to waste 5-10 minutes to troll the hacking scene.
So? ARM CPU's are popular, well documented and as such not hard to emulate, it's not uncommon to emulate dual-core machines (in fact, it's not uncommon to emulate machines with more than just two CPU's, as shown by Saturn emulators), the GPU isn't all THAT advanced etc. and the 3DS won't pose as much of a problem to emulate as you assume.ROFL at 3DS not being hard to emulate. It's dual core CPU, with 3D effects a dual screen and a fairly powerful GPU. Good luck with that.
The photo was taken by yellows8, who released the DSi ware exploit Suokuhax. There are reasons why we think that's 3DS mode and the last possibility to fake the picture is Colors! 3D.Yes I've gone deeper into this thread so I see that. I still think it's a stupid waste, but hey opinion is opinion

No, enlighten me as to what the are.Ever heard of QEmu, armware, or SkyEye?
I heard from some people over at the Dolphin forums (wii emulator) that a device must be 10x more powerful than what it is trying to emulate to successfully accomplish emulation.ROFL at 3DS not being hard to emulate.

Is this true?
What's a CPU speed? How does that even work?Just going on cpu speeds, the n64 cpu is about 93mhz so a device in this case would require a 930mhz cpu, whereas it will run on 600-700mhz maybe lower. But then again the gamecubes 486mhz cpu in my experience requires a 3.0ghz dual core cpu, which is about 12x more. It varies, but is dependent on how well the emulator is made / coded. Back before dophin was open source it had the ability to render games near perfect but required twice what you need now for half the speed. Now it is one of my favorite emulators because of its quality.
It could be 10x. but a better answer is that it can vary greatly with other variables such as the degree of cpu/gpu architecture difference of target/host systems and the quality of emulation software.I heard from some people over at the Dolphin forums (wii emulator) that a device must be 10x more powerful than what it is trying to emulate to successfully accomplish emulation.

Thanks for standing up for me and all, but I don't know technical stuff anyway.Are you calling Janthran stupid?
That's not nice, mate.

You don't go by frequency in computing power comparisons - that's what we have MIPS and FLOPS for. MHz is a measure of the amount of cycles a CPU performs per second - everything depends on how much it actually does per cycle though. Two CPU's with the exact same frequency could have vastly different MIPS/FLOPS counts. Add varied performance depending on tasks and it gets even more convoluted.
