Hello, not sure if this is the right forum for this question.
But anyways, so I just got to finishing to creating an emuNAND for my brother's O3DS XL.

I then went to use my 3ds to use streetpass mii plaza (since i play this regularly).

When i went to street pass him i noticed and received the notification that the last game used was the cia Installer
"FBI".**

My question is can this pose a problem in the future if we are street passing others?
Say by the off chance it picks up someone's 3ds (say a nintendo employee) or even picked up by a nintendozone or whatever.

Can our NNID/consoles be banned or reported even, etc?

I just find it funny how it'd be plausible to create a nsfw icon and anyone who would streetpass it would be able to see it (aka on their mii plaza forever).



**also noting how this isn't a legitmate piece of software a regular 3ds shouldn't have to begin with haha

I believe the only people that will see it are any other people using emuNAND, much like if your favourite title on the friends list is a homebrew app only people with emuNAND will see it

I have heard that too, but my friend who's 3DS is on stock firmware was able to see my street pass as yellow 8 homebrew launcher lol. I think this should be looked into more.

This is false; my sister has an O3DS completely unhacked, and sees my street passes from emulators and such. Plus, my favorite title in the friend list is PocketSNES, which she can see.

the game information will be exchanged together with the street pass data and stored in a local database, that's why people are able to see is on unhacked consoles. Also people will be able to see the applications informations in the friendslist(for example as current running or favorite game), after they got it over streetpass.

That's what I use, since I can't seem to find any other in CIA form. I think it was you who dumped it (if I'm correct - if so, thanks!)

@Asia81 probably didn't dump it. PlayCoinSetter was leaked from the official SDK, and as such any copies floating around are not dumped but simply reuploads of the same copy.

Well that's cool and all that we can confirm seeing homebrew via Spotpass and whatnot.

Soooo, my question up above:
can we get banned in any manner?

Or is this something that shouldn't be too worried about in the longrun?

Meh. My secondary and tertiary 3DSes have both have Mii's with gold pants and homebrew/SDK apps as recently played.

It's funny that someone (not necessarily you) is concerned about something as inconsequential as this. Yet they are quite happy to talk publicly and nonchalantly about their pirating of Nintendo software, often using the same username for both here and their NNID.

Point being, to our knowledge nobody has been banned for openly talking about pirating games. I'd consider having a homebrew app as your recently played near the bottom of the banable offences list.

Sounds reasonable. I don't even know why i was even concerned in the first place tbh. But it would suck to find out one day if our online services were shut down because of this 'Recently Played' reason (which would probably be extremly to almost impossible to happen i guess).

Guess it's time to make a bunch of nsfw icons for the (streetpass) world to see for shitsngiggles.

if i recall, wasn't that also the time when people kept reporting their 3ds crashing after attempting to open street pass mii plaza?
can't the same principle follow on other people street passes if they were to receive a software that can't be recognized?

Yes, homebrew titles will show up on non-modified 3DS consoles through StreetPass, but no you are unlikely to get banned. NNID and other console-specific information isn't exchanged over StreetPass due to privacy, I think. So even if a Nintendo staff StreetPassed you, they wouldn't have any means of identifying your account.

That's how I've been sending this icon to people over StreetPass:

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park

    Stremio ruined my need for nas

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
