I think that they are right when it comes to ruin the competition plans, but I also think they're doing it in a wrong way, bricking end users 3DS's. There are plenty of ways to stop the piracy (rofl... of a company turned to piracy)
They could maybe place a lock on the 3DS if you ever uses a clone card, making it impossible to run the launcher if you don't have Gateway Original cartridge. And the key to unlock it is on gateway original cartridge... Or even force a system update if a clone card is detected, teaching that person a lesson.
Anyway, even if i trust that their firmware is safe to use as long you have an original Gateway Cartridge, i think is better to be safe than sorry, and stop using it until everything comes clear.
I'm currently playing my retail games using sysnand, guess i'll have to wait a little longer to play pokemon on EmuNAND to avoid updating the system version.
By the way, It seems very odd to me that a bricking code has been found on the original launcher, and even now no source code has been published to prove it yet (sorry, but a if statement line doesn't prove anything)
I think that the whole situation has forced them to release the teaser to calm things down, but 2.0 doesn't seems to be available any time soon...
