You can see what titles your friends are playing and they show up as currently playing on the 3ds friends list. My question is, Can Nintendo see this? Can they ban my console because of this?

Turn WiFi off I guess. Maybe if you use SDK/DevMenu they think you have a Dev unit /s.
Yeah but I like to use the qr code install. Oh well looks like I'll just have to deal with it
They can't actually see what you're playing. All it says you're playing is "Unable to get software title." If you're really that concerned, go to the first card that says Friend List, tap Settings, Friend Notification Settings, and turn off Show friends what you're playing.
essentially what they see is the private header (hence why some flashcarts got banned) other systems cant see it itll show up as Unable to get software title. as it tries to look for the corresponding smdh but cant find it. but nintendo can definitly see that private header.

they can and likely will seing as they banned those who played online with an invalid private header and those people have had there 3ds's banned.

however this generally only occurs if playing online with a 3ds game that as an invalid private headerYeah but I like to use the qr code install. Oh well looks like I'll just have to deal with it
The way it works is nintendo sees a title id that you're playing and sends it to friends. If. The title id isnt on the server, which a few legit apps arent, they dont see the name or icon.
Im not even entirely sure if nintendo can view the title you're playing. It probably just passes through the server and sends the title id to other friend's 3ds', where those 3ds's download the icon of the title id from the server. Ik that's why adding a friend locally shows homebrew apps as favorites while online doesn't.
they obviously can as theyve cached the gateway 3ds cards so im completely sure they see you using fbi and freeshop. its probably just the fact that theres so much of it or something.

example: my favorite title is Pokemon sun, I switch it to fbi. If a friend checks to see what your favorite title is it will revert back to Pokemon sun but on your 3ds it will stay as fbi.You should take a look at my current favourite title then!

Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
