I always knew a flashcart using neimod's/yello8 exploits would appear soon, the moment they announced them. The way the said "we don't want to promote piracy" was telling.

Let us be honest for once. There is absolutely no one who cares about "homebrew". If you need "homebrew" on a portable device, you get them on your android phone, which is by the way far more powerful...

I don't accuse them for making money out of their work. I am a software developer myself and I support them in this. I just hate their hypocrisy...

I agree with the first part of the post, and yes everyone wants piracy, I sure do, but I would still like to have homebrew, especially 8 and 16 bit emulators, and maybe n64 (long way off I'm sure since no SDK leaks yet, if even possible) that are in 3d since nintendo seems to never going to be releasing any decent amount of 3d classics.

Yeah you can game on a phone but it's not in 3d and has shitty simulated controls unless you buy a controller.

I 100% agree. Homebrew can be played now on Android which is an Open Platform. And now OUYA. Homebrew on the big consoles is a thing of the past. People just wanna play Backups and ISOS now.

You wanna do your own Homebrew Game/App I suggest you Android(OUYA). In which you're not doing something 'Illegal' and no need to hack for that. Or maybe even on PC.

Instead of N64 I'm hoping for a PS1 emu.:yay:

PS1 emu on 3DS? Keep dreaming

PS1 emu on 3DS? Keep dreaming

Lesser systems have emulated the PS1 before (hell with the ismart MM and its port of dingux we could get in the high tens or even 20 fps). I doubt it would be an easy emulation and would probably take some doing to get right but I can well see full speed PS1 emulation at some point.

20 handheld generations later maybe.

I'm talking about what can be launched ("accepted" as in what the 3DS will let the user feed it via the device).

We've only been told that this device runs 3DS ROMs, not homebrew. The tools to unpackage and repackage the ROM containers and executables and stuff have been around for a while now, if you could simply feed it some homemade 3DS ROM with custom code (even as simple as a hello world which wouldn't be hard to make via the documentation on 3dbrew) they'd likely have mentioned or advertised it somewhere at all.

but they did advertise that they think they can make a gui manager and since the card doesn't run in ds mode and says it uses an exploit then doesn't that mean that they have some idea in mind that they can run unsigned 3ds code? how else could they expect to make a gui manager if they can't run 3ds code?


Also I noticed in the video that that they not only never turn off the 3ds but that they never remove the red gateway card from the system's cart slot when switching roms/m sd cards

With this new bit of information about the blue card being used to prepare the system I have to wonder does the blue card have to "prepare the system" just one time, like as in 1 time for each fw/ fw update (4.5 , 5.x, 6.x etc) or will the system have to have the blue card inserted and be prepared every time it is turned off or every time the red card is removed from the cart slot, that's what I am wondering now.

I, personally, think that blue card needs to be run after every console power cycle (on/off). After you run it, you can run any number of backups from the red card.
