Is this about the new 3DS R4i Gold Deluxe or whatever it's called, or does this apply to the old DS mode only R4i Gold as well?

On one side, I can agree with Nintendo.
They want to prevent another disaster like they had with the R4.
Ironically, the R4 made the DS popular.

On the other side, it's not copyrighted software.

The kernel isn't, but the firmware is, since it contains part of a ROM.

Depending upon how they use it there could be a case that it is a legitimate use of it. From what I understand the current 3ds implementations probably would not get this but hey.

Anyway this is probably just another less legal aggro the better situations, it is not like it will be hard to find either.

Isn't it better to use torrent to spread the files?
If Nintendo can't stop games on torrent sites, they have 0% chance to stop firmware files!

I think it might just be wiser to make a stickied thread listing the files we can't post. Because I am pretty sure we are also not going to be able to post the files for the 3DSLink either. Which from the looks of it, means pretty much any future 3DS flashcard to come out, we won't be able to post nor host the files for them.

It's just a matter of time until DMCA makes a notice ordering GBATemp to take down 3DS Link files.
