I have a quick question for a few people who make exploits for 3ds homebrew. Why is it that most of the games that have exploits available are only for games that are rare or expensive. When I started using homebrew the only games that i knew of that could be used for homebrew were ironfall invasion (which at the time was taken off of the eshop) and cubic ninja. To my knowledge, the only way to install homebrew ropbins is using cubic ninja (which goes for a very high price on amazon) and OoT (which is getting harder to find.) I could understand if the reason is its easier to make an exploit for those games, but I feel as though there are other reasons as to why. Just thought I'd ask, thanks for your time.

The games become expensive because of the exploits :wtf:

Cubic Ninja was a bargain bin game before its rise to fame. OOT was just a Nintendo game that never went on sale much and eventually went out of print, and people were just working with what they had. We had tubehax for a time, and there was browserhax and themehax. There really were a lot of opportunities to get homebrew if you cared enough at the time.

its not that they are rare or expansive its that they become rare and expensive due to big'n removing them/ceasing production of them and supply and demand

The reason the games are expensive is because they were once cheap, undiscovered/undesired games and once the exploit is released, it becomes expensive and more rare.

SEGA does what Nintendon't! XD Maybe SEGA would be back in the game if they simply started making systems once more. They died when they stopped.

SEGA are slowly crumbling in my opinion. I haven't seen a good Sonic game since Generations, and that was in 2011!

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if that was the point of game streaming
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, i only have like 1 or 2 mb sec

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, why did you start saying my pc has a hamster in the first place?

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Its actua!ly just a old joke, meaning its slow. Was just kidding around with you.

    I bet @AncientBoi has some hamsters hidden somewhere tho....

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, ik

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    im taking a break for today anyway

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.
