Hi everyone!
Regular titles use 0100.... and latest chars are zeros too, to distinguish from updates.
I personally suggest using a different start mark, like 0300, 0400, 0500...
That way it would be easier to distinguish from retail games, and title managers like Tinfoil or Goldleaf could add the option to distinguish homebrew via that special digits.
For example, I'm going to use the application ID 010032A5CF120000 with Goldleaf, but it would be easier if we used a specific mark for homebrew.
Letting anyone use their custom and random IDs can be dangerous, because IDs ending with ...800 are installed as updates (and must be)
What do you think about that? I personally prefer 0300... mark.
Mentioning @blawar as he asked me about this idea, and he might be interested on this discussion.
And yes, application ID = title ID, but application ID is the term used by the official Nintendo libraries and tools, so I prefer to use it.
