Also, are you sure about the meaning of [??????]? The rest checks out (for who's wondering; I'm fluent at Japanese and I'm studying Korean right now).
???? (majikon) is a Japanese generic term for any device that allows for ROMs to be played on a console (source). I'd say that his English translation of "majikon" into "flashcart" is correct.

Lets not get ahead of ourselves people. Granted the exploit (if it's real) is only a slight sign of hope for the possibility for running code in what could be another endless cat-n-mouse game of the firmwares like it has been for the PSP. You also have to take into consideration that the big "N" has a couple months to patch the holes by the time it hits stateside here in the U.S.
I just hope DAX and others as ingenious as him join in what will be the new "DSI HOMEBREW" scene... unfortunately, regardless of running code on the DSI, I have a terrible feeling the next generation of NDS games are going to be difficult to backup if Nintendo starts to implement stronger rom encryption and key data signing protocols in newer upcoming games.

Golden. Just golden.

I thought that Nintendo would've done some super nifty-hifty anti-cracking programming for this device.
Now, then just as soon as those things are available in english...There will be homebrew and flashcarts aboundin'

I'm going to have to start my own store or something...

Exactly my point, remember this exploitation is just a small step for Yasu compare to Nintendo re-modeling the DSi. Remember how the glitches inside a Japanese game they are still there but when revision inside the USA version the glitches are gone or lessen? This needs to keep under a tight scrutiny so the news don't spread fast that it can get out of hand.

Must I remind R4DS users what Nintendo did to that company?! Nintendo knows that they can't stop pirating, so they decided to counter it with the DSi. If this information comes out then Nintendo going to make a firmware update that is going to stop the DSi Homebrew for good!

I'm skeptical now...

Couldn't it just be an animation using that new animation feature of the DS? When he presses the home button, it goes to the photo channel.

Problem with the DSi is exactly its updatable firmware - it's likely to be another Wii style game of cat and mouse.

Every time an exploit is found, or a cart is made to work, nintendo can fix or blacklist it.

I imagine you will have to mod your DS this time round.

the psp also was a cat-mouse game until the hackers modded the network update to download the latest hacked firmware instead of the official

Well if Nintendo skillfully patches all the loopholes (which should have been done out the door IMO), then there is always the possibility for a dual flash-able mod chip to come hit the market, which I kind of hope for, because it will deter most of the little wannabe cut-n-paste coders & newbiez, who don't understand the art of hacking as well as the concept of HOMEBREW, but would rather look for the easiest way to STEAL the hard work of true coders, developers & publishers

Maybe when you sent that thought out into the universe it actually happened - except your intention was lost in translation and they fixed the problematic lite hinge instead

How is what he said intelligent in any way? What he's practically saying is; "i dont want everyone to be able to steal stuff, just me."

Intelligent? My ass.

"skillfully patches all the loopholes"
"Nintendo"

I'm sorry, do you know who you are talking about?
