I dunno if it is too niche, but LittleGPTracker seems like a great candidate for porting to 3D/WiiU. It is already built on DevKitPro tools and is a cracking introduction to trackers. I have been playing around with it for months on a Chinese handheld and would love to see it on the Nintendo handhelds!
A quick look at the source makes me realize this is very easy to port to the 3ds. Anything holding you back from attempting?
Seems like a fun learning project. Since SDL takes care of the lower level code, not much knowledge of the 3ds hardware is required.

I wonder about the N3DS tho, since it's more Power!

Since the project is being build for platforms like Dingoo, GP2X and PSP, the new3DS is more than capable of running without issues. Old3DS may be an edge case due to the slow processing speed. Otherwise i see no issues.

I am at the limit of my abilities to identify that the toolchain should work, unfortunately. I tried to set up a build environment, but it is just beyond me... I'd also love to see LGPT have a little revival with some new features...

I personally would have like to see a good mp3/flac player which can scrobble music to last.fm and a GBA emulator would be pretty cool too so I don't have to buy a flashcard for my SP.



edit by Cyan:
Now that Ninjhax and Homebrew launcher is released, I renamed the thread from:
"Which homebrew apps would you like to see when smealum releases his exploit?"

Please use this thread to suggest, request (even if there's very little chance that a developer accept to do it) or troll impossible to do homebrew.

That thread will probably won't be a proper and respected place to request homebrew, but it will canalize all future requesting threads in a single place.
Please, don't create multiple threads for the same purpose. Thank you.

Before making a request or suggestion, you can find the existing homebrew and projects on our Wiki.

Is it possible to somehow spoof having accessed the eShop the same way DSES accepts the EULA manually? If so, then you could technically region swap, do that, then system transfer from an old 3DS and not need a new one.

Can someone give me info on how to cheat in all Titles unlocked for Tales of Abyss? There's a basic cheat list going around but it specifically doesn't have anything for Unlocking all Titles.

I would really love if there was a mod to harvest moon skytree village to allow any bachelor similar to the trio of towns: true love edition rom hack and the tale of two hearts rom hack. There are similar projects so I know it is possible, and I'd love to help if I can but I have no idea how/where to get started. I know you have to get the romf files from godmode9 but I don't know what you're supposed to do with them/ how or where to open them to code stuff. Anyone here can help me? Because this is a request I wanna help with !!!!!

I have a few ideas but they might be heavily copium induced

Screen hardmod with higher ppi

Higher capacity battery mod(maybe with dual batteries as this worked for the Switch)

An easy usb c mod that replaces the charging port(this most likely already exists and I just didn't look up the right thing)

Battery's not too hard if you have the manufacturing ability to do so, they were somewhat common back when the 3DS was new -- especially for the o3DS

People's USB-C mods get posted every few months on r/3dshacks, but it does obviously require decent soldering experience

Higher PPI screen will never happen, I'm not as familiar with the 3DS GPU as the DS GPU to say exactly how impossible it is but I highly doubt that'll ever happen on original hardware, especially not practically working in games if it's somehow possible

Why not have a FXAA adder homebrew? FXAA shouldn't effect performance at all. It would need to be a little weak as FXAA is very weird on low resolutions like 240p(aka 3ds) but I'm sure it could be an easy way to make games look better. It would have to be a cfw level thing.

Maybe use the second unused core to do the FXAA processing as iirc it's a cpu thing.

How about an RPG Maker MV interpreter? There’s one for RPGM 2000/2003, but that’s incompatible with MV made games.
Are you talking about RPG Maker FES or something homebrew? I'd love to add some classic rpg maker 2003 games on my 3ds, and I haven't figured out how.
