Yes, that is what they said. However people can change their mind. If you look at the HiyaCFW github for example, it has not been touched in over a month.
NDS-Bootstrap hadn't been touched in several months then we got updates with more supported games and then DSi support. Have faith in the devs.

They probably realized that they got too much attention which resulted into the leak. It's wise not to announce every small step if you are not ready for release.
I'm pretty sure that they are still working on it and that it will get released. But they said that they wanted to make a bundled release with everything you need to install the CFW etc. and all the tools need their time to be developed.

I would love a bundle with the new exploit(s), the RocketLauncher files and the CFW.
That could just mean that Hiya is ready and is waiting for a RocketLauncher release, which is most likely the case.
It already is ready since the source is on GitHub and it can be compiled using devkitARM. We just need RocketLauncher for it to run correctly, since it freezes on NO$GBA. Only problem is that RocketLauncher isn't even out yet.

Really? have you read this thread? https://gbatemp.net/threads/announcing-rocketlauncher-the-first-exploit-with-unlocked-arm7.476288/
or seen the youtube videos? July was a busy month, showing awesome things that could be performed with this exploit! And it made me
drool of emotion. See, all this created a hype that made me read and learn how to downgrade my dsi and install sudoku hax, then I injected some
other titles / tickets. I had a great time modding my DSi, and now i'm ready.

If waiting a little more is to "then improve the functionality of the system in order to provide the easiest, most user-friendly experience possible" :rofl2:
I´ll wait.

Hypervisor is more accurate to the real hardware and in most of the cases goes to full speed.

GBARunner2 is still an emulator. Running the code natively and using an mmu to emulate hardware doesn't mean it's more accurate, in fact you could end up not being able to emulate certain interactions (cpu instruction timing etc). It will normally be quicker, although with a just in time compiler you can special case things more easily which can make that faster.

Will there be a coldboot method? Like with Luma3ds? Also will it support NAND backup/restore?
If you will have already installed RocketLauncher, then you can make HiyaCFW autoboot by renaming the HiyaCFW .nds file on the SD card to "boot.nds". This only works if you have your RocketLauncher-installed cart inserted, though.

It would be nice if they didn't all use boot.nds, so you could use rocketlauncher for running something that needs arm7 but use one of the traditional exploits for running something that only needs arm 9. Without having to rename files on your sd card. Mostly would be of use for testing.

So flipnote studio or dsi browser will allow you to DG to 1.4 once the exploits are released. What else do we need to run hiya?

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
