Hacking Gateway 3DS - First 3DS Flashcart

ov3rkill · Jun 8, 2013

I can't freakin' wait for the reviews on this flashcart. LOL.

Mementos ps3key and all other is a mod chips, even if you consider jtag/rgh and other is not safe to log to online services and play games.
PS3/XBOX 360 are old stuff, even wii u was hacked based on firmware but first hackers examines hardware.

3DS is "new" brand of handheld that is not hacked - I don't think that Nintendo will pass any kind of piracy... here on Gateway is little problem because it will handle only roms... right now there is no sign of any sdk for homebrews - so it is possible that Nintendo will sue them...

Yeah suing them is something il understand. But saying it gets blocked, cause its mimic the hardware, is just wrong. You cant know this, no one knows for now. Xkey, ps3key etc also only emulating the harddrive, with taking care of all its checks (like ap25, xgd3, so you can compare it with an cartridge which is emulating the device, with all its checks, cause, when gateway realy is emulating the device, xkey, ps3key, wode etc just works in the same way as gateway), like gateway is emulating the cartridge, and may can take care of checks, nintendo is implenting. If the Gateway Team is able to getting to know, how nintendo blockes the gateway, they just can upate the fpga, to take care of those new checks, like every other emulating device is doing that. Only time will tell.

And il think, it makes it even more difficult for ninty when theres no exploit involved. 3DS exploits seems to be very rare (when you trust yellows8, neimods words), if they would youse one, homebrew would be may possible, but nintendo also just could block this exploit and it would end up like the Cyclo DS IEvlotuin with its DSI Mode.

wiewcw · Jun 8, 2013

I don't think so that fixing exploit even if it is rare or not, they have debuging stuff and etc... sdk's and things so if as you said is rare so they could track by some memory check what is incjected for example caused buffer overflow or etc. So another question if Gateway will work via exploit so... it is single or if they found few of it... If one it will be problem for while.

Ok, for now I am worred is that Ninny will possied of and take Sony's way and use mandatory udates.

And you're little wrong about mod chips for example on XBOX 360 ;-) it is even now no the best thing to fully free the console. Softmod is best way... XBOX 1 have that not for begining... even PSP before Pandora have got some early mod chips.

Sorry understood your argument with the exploit false i think, what i meant was, that if gateway used an exopoit, it will be a problem, cause theres not many of them

Understood it inititaklly that you thinked, a exploit would be more efficienter for not getting blocked

BTW, ive just wanted to compare ODD (which are nto blocked on ps3, xbox etx) with gateway. Not whats the best solution for unlocking a console

Sorry if i worded it false.
Though, when it comes to xbox, its all bout what ya want. With an RGH you get banned within mimutes/hours, but you get homebrew, but with flash/emualting device youre able to play online. They dont recomened that, but just because they dont wanna get in trouble if they promising things.. Il used c4eva´s drive flash fw´s since years, and drive emulator since xkey was released, never got banned, though its only interesting for warez/backup user. (youve just have to take care about some important things, like not update without they checked the firmware for new security measures, burning/patching sks correctly etc)

so far this is the cheapest site from their resellers list
http://www.gateway-3ds.net/

wiewcw · Jun 8, 2013

Yeap little off top I think

I've also had XBOX 360 and I know what is LT3 and older versions

and as far I know it is not as you trying to tell me that it is exploit over console firmware it is also hardware mod... but on drive, but it still not give ability to fully hack console but only play games - and not all tittles without eminent ban.

At the end of this off top I only said that even FT was blocked... M$ is wrong for good example of how console should get for free or not.

I am consider only of Gateways support or/if it give full support not one expensive shot for moment -> on 3DS I've get few flash cards but stay on DSTWO because of support, customisations and etc.

If Gateway fails or if it gives for me only support for games I will wait for hack or another who gives SDK like DSTWO with baypass to ARM11 CPU for homebrew mostly for multimedia like Youtube, internet radio's maybe port of better net browser and etc <- CPU is capable but system is limited to lack of good will from Nintendo.

Only thing is support and nothing more

Have nice day ;-)

modchipcentral has a $5 off coupon, so you'd only be paying $3 more for shipping costs. In the US at least, that site ships from Asia and is..really sketchy looking.

I tought i will be excited when a 3ds flashcart comes out, but turns out that i have kid icarus, mario kart 7, 3d land, RE: revelations, zelda and samurai warriors chronicles. and i still haven't finished all yet, so why buy a cart to have more games unfinished ?
'cause right now i'm finishing chronno trigger DS again.
but then again, it's great news, it's something of a progress.

iceaco · Jun 10, 2013

I bought and will buy the games I wanted in 3DS (although I did not in DS :\ ) But the only reason I want this is if they have support for other regions - I really wanna play Taiko no Tatsujin! XD

Why won't you buy japanese 3ds then? It's ~$150 and all your region-related problems solved.

...yeah, what's $150? ..nothing lol

Well... that's roughly cost of 2.5 games in Japan. Or region lock is just excuse for pirating expensive games?

Also, this card itself ~$80 and considering guy buying all his games, just suggested.. :rolleyes:

Depends what games, not all 3DS games are the same price.
At my country prices are almost the same as in JPN and i tell you, that's not small money 150$.

But hawing another 3DS solely for JPN games is not an option for me.

Yeah, i know, i thought the same thing..why not buy JPN 3DS, but than again that's too much.

I think i'l wait the hack... Hey, by the way, what IS happening ith the hack, any NEWS??
And what about Chip Decapping, what's with that?

dragonmaster · Jun 10, 2013

i have 2 games of 3ds paper mario and super mario 3d land ,i paid 110 euro for them,great games but it was my 3 days salary to own them ,i will buy gateway and in the future original games if i find them great enough to own a copy.
for my it was better if a cfw was released but each step is essential .

Metoroid0 · Jun 10, 2013

I don't haw ONE original game for any of my console, I sold them all. However, i wanted to buy Metroid: other M (metroid fan!) but the thing is, i want to buy used one that is well preserved. IMO it's not good idea to buy NEW games for anny console..unless you got good job and a lots of money and everything in your country and life as it should.
Otherwise, it's luxury...

But i don't want to sound like soldier, so rigid, like "i don't buy new games, its luxury and i newer will"

i mean, knowing myself i would probably buy some NEW game if i REALLY LOVE IT!

But i think GATEWAY will be BIG! despite region-locking.

dickfour · Jun 10, 2013

I'd use this for games that I'd play but never buy like castlevania. I'd never pay 80 bucks though unless they figure out how to implement a loader and back and load saves

iceaco · Jun 10, 2013

Yeah I think buying a Japanese 3DS would be too much for me also - I'll especially be sad as I won't use it much.. (well until I learn my kanji)
In addition, I'd have to import all the games too! :\ (except if I use eShop?)
Technically it'll be nice too for, as four said above, games I'd play but never buy, but that in itself shows that I won't play it much anyway, but I guess it's justified?
That being said, I'm all for a 3DS flashcart. There are many games I was interested in but not interested enough to buy them, such as the launch titles :s

I only have SWC, KH, HM: ANB, anc AC:NL so far anyway :s

Don't waste your money on this people.
Too expensive for something that seems half complete and borderline useless, since you can only keep 1 save at a time, and have to have a bunch of MicroSD cards. Isn't the idea to consolidate everything to 1 card so you don't have to carry around a crapton of them?

Plus there's no homebrew, so what's the point?

The point is that i can save myself from spending 100.000$ because i just want to play some games.
Everyone can say whatever, but for me, this is a good thing, even without Homebrew, which will be available soon.

Not bunch of microSD's, just 4 of them. 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB that's all the cards you need.
You can keep ROM's in your PC and just swap them as you need them. and you can hawe 4 different games at the time.
At least it's easier than Buying 40$ ~ 80$ game, not to mention faster.

Either way you play one game at the time, till you finish it, no need to jump from title to title. (R4 spoiled us

)
I mean considering situation with GATEWAY. I mean, you got to make the best of it

it is as it is now.
Maybe in the future it will be different in terms of multiple ROM's on 1 microSD, but now, it's like this.

But yeah, i agree about SAVE's. The ONLY REAL problem as i see it, would be if you simply CAN'T backup your SAVE files from GATEWAY.
that would be a big bummer.

I'm sure i wouldn't like to finish my RE: revelations 80% and play a different game and then when i feel like i want to return to RE: revelations and finish it 100%...
But nooo how can i, because i didn't backed up my SAVE file, because how can i, and now i have to start ALL from the freaking Beginning!

Now THAT's A BUMMER IMO!
