So basically all consoles are now exploitable with their stock firmware. Go Smealum!

 

[Green Cat]

Well that explain him asking about how many people still have 6.3

That raise the number of potential exploitable 3DSes by a lot, 4.5 3DSes were getting rare, but I suspect most 3DSes in the market are 6.1/6.3 right now.

All 3DS consoles sold at the moment have at max 6.x firmware. If no one updates the firmware, it's exploitable.

Nintendo is now really mad. Be carefull Smea, killers at your door!

He should release the exploit before having panic that Nintendo will sue him

Maybe Nintendo will pay him to not release it.

I believe now it will only be a matter of time before it is released (even if not by smea). Just showing that it is possible will motivate people with the necessary skills to go out and find it, and eventually it will come out.

Sucks for all those people we told to update to 7.0 because it didn't look like a new exploit for 6.X was going to be available for a long time.

What I believe is that now piracy on 3DS is something serious. It is really starting now with this exploit, because everybody can get a 6.3 Nintendo 3DS.

What I also believe is that Nintendo will now start to find everything to stop us from using such exploits.

 

[cearp]

even so, will this get released (soon?). if not, it doesn't really make a difference right?
but still, good

 

[GBA rocks]

Sucks for all those people who paid premium for guaranteed-to-be-4.5 consoles.
Even more so because they had to withstand a subpar gateway (pre-2.0) with no multirom and no 100% compatibility.
Who's getting into the game now has everything easier, golden zelda 3DS XL and multi-rom gateway fw 2.0.

This boy is the best.....nice woork m8!

 

[aireca]

Nice, now you just need to get a new 3ds released before this date and you are good to go.

Heh, very intriguing indeed I just might need to buy a 3DS soon.

Maybe Nintendo will pay him to not release it.

If anything, they'll send their squad of ninjas, and yes, Nintendo has hired ninjas. True story.

 

[masterzero]

or he will give it to another flashcard team so people will need to buy another flashcard ¬¬ viva anti piracy moralism

How about no? This is too good to pass up. As long as it's another flash card team. Screw AP moralism lol.
