    Hacking Trouble with HDD

    Hacking 3DS XL R4 cards? do they work?

    Say I forget that I have a Supercard and I update my 3DS XL. I decide to play on it and realize what has happened. Is there any chance of bricking? Also, does it require me to downgrade my firmware?

    Tutorial How to play GameCube games off a USB HDD.

    No, the problem is not that I can't rip DVDs off of my retail games, it's that I can't read any DVDs. I used one of those Wii Drive Cleaners but to no avail, so I'm assuming it is beyond my control to fix it. Is there no other way to play GameCube games? =
