    Nintendo has just released a new firmware update for the Nintendo 3DS

    ntrboot remains cool and good. Imagine updating the firmware of a platform that you refuse to sell software on. Get the fuck outta here, Nintendo.

    Hacking Is Sky3DS+ yesterdays news?

    Sky3DS+: Can only play perfect rips of cartridge games. Cost: ~$80 CFW: Can run any code on the 3DS, including great homebrew. Cost: Free or ~$2 depending on your situation. Yeah, Sky3DS is pretty obsolete at this point, and to be fair, it was kind of obsolete when it was released except for...

    Hacking Is there a way to disable Luma's menu?

    ntrboot takes precedence over Luma/bootloaders installed to FIRM0 so I don't know what you're saying here.

    Hacking Question Used to play X game, now it says there's an update I cannot skip

    No, it doesn't. Of course, some of the updates shared might actually require a higher firmware than you've got, which would put you in a bad spot.

    Hacking 3ds luma cow mod gone wrong

    You need a working console of some sort to actually flash that one though. NTRBoot uses just a DS flashcart that's flashed with boot9strap and a magnet to boot the system straight into an arbitrary AMR9 payload (so, SafeB9SInstaller or GodMode9). It'd be very helpful to have one in this case...

    Hacking 3ds luma cow mod gone wrong

    Downgrading to 2.1 hasn't been a thing for 11 months. What year is this? That's probably the only good option here. You need a DS flashcart compatible with ntrboot, and if you don't have another DS/3DS to flash it with, you'll need one that comes pre-flashed such as the R4i Gold Plus.

    Hacking WIP Upcoming update for the SwitchBru DNS

    8.8.8.8 (and 4.4.4.4) are Google's public DNS servers. In cases where your ISP's DNS servers are slow, Google DNS would speed up all DNS lookups, which would be a noticeable improvement when browsing the web. See also OpenDNS, or https://1.1.1.1 for Cloudflare's new DNS servers.

    Hacking How do I deactivate my account?

    I'm confused as to what this has to do with this topic, but Odyssey requires 3.0.1, so long as you've got a first-run cartridge of it.

    Hacking First Switch eShop dump released by BBB

    Plus you could pirate the game on the Wii U literally before release. That said, I also hope that backup loaders aren't a thing, or at least not easy / pain-free for a good while. It's not that piracy kills consoles, but the fear of piracy can definitely have an effect. Major game publishers...

    Hacking Why I think even with CFW, Nintendo Switch won't support controllers with a headphone jack for audio

    So you could wear a wired headset without a cable connecting your head directly to the console. That being said, last time I checked (which to be fair was a while ago), not even PC supported those headphone jacks when connected via bluetooth.

    Hacking Kirby only needs 4.1

    Zelda had a day 1 update on the Wii U for sure. I don't remember the Switch needing it, though.

    Hacking Do not buy digitally from Eshop on 4.X

    They did a maintenance last night, which was likely the cutoff point. Really weird that they let you purchase software that they won't let you download, though. I expect there isn't any recourse, given that you are free to update.

    Hacking Gateway removed Luna and boot9?

    It's true. FIRM overwrites (which is what happens when you try to use Gateway on an 11.3+ sysNAND, or update sysNAND in Gateway CFW, or some other seemingly random times using Gateway on sysNAND (seriously don't use Gateway on sysNAND)) only caused bricks on A9LH N3DS systems because A9LH...

    Hacking Cheap flashcard to buy

    Avoid r4i-sdhc.com and r4isdhc.com carts. I'd recommend this one: https://nds-card.com/ProShow.asp?ProID=507 It's an r4isdhc.com.cn cart. It runs the Wood kernel like the R4i Gold, so no timebomb.
