Hacking Question Is the mod chip will continue?

[lafleche]

"until it stops making money"
at that point the most likely thing that would happen is the source code is released to someone
maybe made public

Wishfull thinking.... Source code for Gateway 3ds (which seemed also to be the same team when you read the fbi article) was never made public.

but they were not being prosecuted before , they may just do it as a big fuck you to Nintendo depending on how things go
or it could get sold or leaked , remember where we got the 1st dev men cia installer from

Is anyone else tired of the SX OS vs Atmosphere thread hijacks?

Yes, I think fanboying over custom firmware that allows you to pirate is silly. I personally wouldn't care which one to use, as long as it works, and gives me free games, I'll of course use the free one.


But, I cannot help but laugh at the SX devs getting arrested. It's just funny to me. I'm quite sure you all know that Nintendo is going to have no mercy on these hackers.

 

[GilgameshArcher]

yes we will continue to get supports and updates

LOL LMAO ROFL
Only if they keep support from the jail

Apparently, most of the team still run free, so I suppose there's a chance they'll continue to provide updates.

How is this relevant here? Unless you would like to derail a potential usefull thread into a speculative and wrong gateway=TX thread.

Well... Seems more relevant now as the fbi article revealed that the TX team was also responsible (or at least very very close related) for the Gateway and Stargate.... So gateway = TX!!!

well yeah because they did stargate
and they bough code off gateway to stop their stuff being cloned

btw the dev for sxos wasnt hit so theres that

I doubt they will continue: the business people were caught and no reseller online, there will be no money coming in. Why would they continue to support a business with no money.

There's still resellers. Chips are still being sold.

Yes, for existing stocks. After they were sold out, I don't think there will be more as the management controls the operation, and they will be in jail. No one pays the devs, they would have left and won't update anyway.

Damn now I’m stuck with a mod chip that won’t work anymore

You're not, at all.

Just wait.

If for some reason there's not a next SX update, by that time there will be a way to replace the firmware and load Atmosphere instead.

Atmosphere devs are working on Mariko right now so hopefully that won't take too long.
For the time being, there is really no need to be on the latest firmware anyway. You can stay behind by a few versions and still be able to play everything, so it will be a while until it gets to the point SX OS can't run the latest firmware required by some games.

Lest hope the dump leaked make things easier for other devs to create awesome stuff SX ox mariko

Yeah, hopefully it will lead to an open source modchip. Maybe it will even lead to a software solution eventually. It's much easier for someone to look for a software exploit if they already have full access.

Yeah that will be nice I really don’t want another mod chip cause I have to pay someone again since I can’t do it myself.

The thing that make asked that question is cause read Nintendo file a law suits and win they shutdown team xecutor. I was under impression that Nintendo might release an update to block them in the future. But as for now any update that come I can freely update sysnand normally to system update right. And the chip should still boot SX os ?

Yes

They got Gary and Max but SX core production and distribution are happening in China, where western / international law can't touch. The current interruption is in US only. Seller in China on Taobao are still selling NS+SX Core+Game ROMs as a package. There is a good chance the rest of team will just took over as long as there is money to be made.

Well, TX websites and activation system are already going down, so things are going much more faster than we expected. It was a matter of time, anyways.

Nintendo will hunt down mostly every reseller of the TX chip, and also group that takes the dumped code from the chip to produce it themselves. As quick as they become barely known, Ninty will be there.
As long as the amount of money genereted is big enough to risk a few years in jail, you'll have chips and support. Once the sales start to go down, say goodbye to that.

I wouldn’t be too worried just yet. Their websites went down quite a few times this year. Nintendo will sure try to take down every seller. But then again they have a terrible history of stop piracy on their console. All of Nintendo’s system were hacked during most its lifespan.
