Hacking GATEWAY: Release coming soon

[Vengenceonu]

i wanna know what the "other (interesting) developments" is from their last posts, im guessing that they will have save decryption and re-encryption....because if they have fixed 7.x encryption im guessing they would probably fix the 6.x save encryption too.....but then they would want a way to decrypt the saves that used the broken encryption and re-encrypt them corrtly using the proper 6.x method.....thats just my guess anyway

Notice how in the video it was already booted into GW mode (something that has never happened in any other preview video). Also, they said "We are currently in the process of wrapping it up in a nice Launcher file" so my guess is we're getting a completely new GW menu and other new features to accompany the 7.x and 8.x encryption feature shown in the video. It probably wont even be called OMEGA anymore. Probably just 3.0. I also emailed them about incorporatinga "list view" in their multirom so who knows what we could get.

EDIT: Anyone else peep'd the BirdMania 3D in their multirom menu (0:52) AND as a standalone app (1:40) on the 3DS? It might mean nothing but it would be awesome if we could install eshop roms onto the 3DS itself in emunand.

Ahh, poop. I thought there was no way they would get around it this time but they did. Nintendo is useless. Congrats for you guys.

oh what about action replay ?

I wonder if they will be able to eventually hack it to the same level as the Wii. Now I know its alot of work and I am no programer either I am just thinking out loud about what the possibilities could be in a year from now. Still I won't be able to take advantage of it until higher firmware is available which I am guess will probably not be happening anytime soon.

Smash isn't even out, for all we know it could be 9.x Nintendo isn't that stupid

Except the production stage of games is usually way earlier than the release date. The final stage in game development is before the production stage. Chances are the game will be playable.

and before someone asks now, NO it does NOT mean, gateway is now compatible with all firmwares, you still need a 4.1-4.5 system nand 3ds, it only means, the emunand is now compatible with the latest firmware meaning, you can now access eshop via emunand again and play the newly encrypted games...
"now" meaning, when it gets released

... So what you're saying is I should now ask if it works on the latest firmwares?

Smash Bros releases in less then 1 month in Japan (September 13th). It will work.

Don't forget Pokémon Art Academy and Pokebank but some weeks sounds like an eternity, well we waited 2 months, waiting another one won't hurt I guess....

Chances are very slim of that occurring. Maybe if Smealum's exploit can be reverse engineered, it's possible. I personally think if that happens it would be a comunity thing and not Gateway.

Oh, no I was joking, haha!

Seems like this was a tongue-in-cheek post about people always asking this in threads like these. I mean, check out the post he quoted

Edit: Ninja'd.

If they already can do it then why will it take "weeks" to release the thing? Unless they are waiting for Smash to come out first perhaps?

Maybe the new launcher has something that they don't want to show yet.

I cant wait,Super smash bros will be out in just 4 weeks in japan, i would really like to know what they mean by the "coming" weeks, 2 weeks 4 weeks or how many? Mt-card told me that they will realese the v2.0 the next week so im sure Gateway will add save editor support after mtcard gets the update, maybe Super Smash bros usa/eur will get 0.9.0 encryption but the japanesse one will be 8.xx like Tomodachi life

 

[Cybore]

I'm glad this is coming. For some reason all of my updates were one day randomly deleted and I have not been able to download them again due to the eshop encryption. This also means pokebank support which is awesome. While ORAS is still a few months away, I'm hoping it will be compatible with it.

 

[Rizzorules]

Anyone know if we will be able to use Pokebank with the Roms?

 

[gamesquest1]

well depending on how gateway achieved this....there isnt much else nintendo can do except adding anti piracy detection.....adding more encryption methods, and gateway could just do the same again.....or the method they are using could basically defeat any new encryption routines they care to add before they even get added.

it all just depends on how gateway have done it

 

[Adr990]

Very nice.
Just in case Nintendo does decide to release another update now, I already made an EmuNand 8.1 update on a SD card.

 

[kyogre123]

I already requested GW via email that they should add a decryption/reencryption feature for save files so we could keep using our old save files played in GW mode (roms) and emuNAND (retail carts and eShop downloaded games). Additionally, to convert save files of .3ds roms to .3dz save files and viceversa (why not?).

I'm pretty sure you will NOT want to start new save files because of the change of the encryption. I hope some of you guys could request the same thing to them just in case.

Having something working under certain (for us unknown) conditions does not mean it's ready for release.
