Hacking 3DS Hack: "We hacked it"

[Deleted User]

I'm going to keep everything in order and in one place in the following thread: http://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendo-3ds-hack-compilation.340296/
Let me know if I'm missing information, if information is inaccurate, or if any new information comes out as well as who has done what in a private message. Thanks.

So, Josephvb10 is the culprit huh? What a pillock. Why'd the wanker change it?

It's you guys blowing this up. A random 3DSBrew user added the kernel hack as a news item, neimod didn't like it for some reason so he reverted it. Calm down already, no need to get upset over something so trivial.

Region locking turned me into a pirate. I needed to hack my Wii to play my copy of Tatsunoko vs Capcom that I imported from Japan. Since my system was already hacked I thought what the hell I might as well learn how to download ISOs. I never looked back after that day.

Hacking a console to circumvent region locking isn't piracy since you bought the game legally. Companies don't like it though.

I'm impressed your parents knew about flash carts. I thought only nerds know about them.

Lol I Didn't know anything about them either until then

I'm a cheap bastard. There's no external influences that led me to accidentally become a pirate. I just didn't feel like shelling out money for wii/ds games. If anything, the emulation scene is what got me into it.

On a more related note, if it was true, why would neimod delete it off 3dsbrew? I can understand if he didn't want people knowing/publicity, but by telling anyone in the first place, he gave up those rights.

I don't think he wants every little informal advancement to spam up the news page. If you look at the body of news releases they are mostly ofw and homebrew tools releases. Joseph's post seemed out-of-place and hyperbolic to him, not to mention it was taken straight from his mouth on irc and immediately placed on 3dbrew -- he doesn't want that to be a trend. He takes pride in 3dbrew.

I think someone should make a thread "Why I want the 3ds hacked" that way the updates, when any, will be easy to read. Also living in the US I apparently never realized how much region locking screwed you guys over. I know I got dogged with some VHS tapes back in the day, I just figured in tod

Only "nerds" know about custom firmware and all that stuff.
but flash carts are really well known.. there are lot of moms that just buy them as the "100 games in one" cart or something..

Yea and then those carts generally don't work or the "100 Games" are really fucking shit

I'll bet everybody (excluding nerds) wants the 3DS hacked for the same reason.

 

[Senbei Norimaki]

Until this thing is released I don't give a shit about updates.

It's pretty much a hit or miss in the PAL regions. Region locking is also a pain in some other consoles with online content being tied to region (PSVita and maybe the PS3 too). In other words, importing will give you only a certain amount of options, but most likely you'll end up with a game with incompatible DLC (PSVita has this with only 1 acc per console, but the PS3 can possibly have a workaround).

As I've said before, I'd like to see the region lock removed, but at this point in the development of the hack, I'd prefer to wait. As there is no suggestion that the hack can work with all games flawlessly and the homebrew options are very limited (displaying pictures is nice and all, but as most people already know, that is possible with OFW), why release it for it to be patched? Still haven't seen any great reason to keep the 3DS online capabilities intact, but this isn't a reason for me to let that feature go away. Yet.

Guys, stop with the I like this and I don't like that talk.

 

[McHaggis]

I hope we don't see the hack released until a toolchain is available. Gives people more time.
