Can you take the board out of a 3ds cart and put it into a ds cart? Obviously to mangle your 3ds cart.
Yes, and I can confirm that it does work very nicely. So if your too classy to saw off the nub, you can just take apart a crappy DS game you don't play with a small flathead screwdriver. Here's a pic with the carts swapped. Notice the Ocarina of Time cart that isn't inside the 3DS, but is swapped with another DS game that is inside the 3DS.

So when a hack comes out, just swap carts and modify the save! Although once you take it apart, it makes pulling the top and bottom halves of the cart much easier, so hot glue is advised after doing this, unless you want your cart flying apart when you drop it.

Nobody would know what was new on that page, so here it is:

This is a troll. Probably just trying to lure people to do a survey scam. The edit should soon be erased by an admin.
You beat me too it I was just about to say, do not send a email to that address unless you love spam, at least use a temp email.

From that idiot's user page:

I'm currently testing a beta hack overload .aac and .jpg they were originally a .exe some one help me find out if that will work

So in other words, he renamed an EXE file with the extensions .aac and .jpg, and thinks that will work.

WTF? people are getting really crazy with this hacking thing. The survey sites must be making a lot of money with this.
I'm really noob on this hacking matter, but i know that we won't be seeing emulators and homebrews until at least the second semester.

yes but you will need a DS Flashcard & a DS Phat or Lite

DS Flashcard to load the homebrew save dumper and upper
and a DSLite or Phat due to you cannot hot swap cards in a DSi or 3DS (hotswap is where you switch the card when game/homebrew data has been booted)

It was Xeno's website.
Though I honestly doubt it was the real Xeno. AFAIK they have NEVER released any of their releases through such means. They are waaay more hush hush about those. Plus iirc their "release" was the same as the others that is in circulation, which is not Xenophobia.

    Exactly.
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    Thor from "Pirate Software" said its just better to pirate the game than buy from a keyshop if you care about the devs
    +2
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    devs don't get hit with the chargebacks, the keys are free to generate
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    at least on steam
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    Except he said the DEVS get hits with the chargeback cost
    +1
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    since the key gets bought with a stolen credit card
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    there's nothing to charge back because the keys don't cost them money to generate in the first place
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If the game has a crack sure
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most these crack sites have dead links anymore or the crack don't even work
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    @The Real Jdbye What don't you get? If someone use a stolen creditcard. Then sell said key on G2A. If I the dev sold the game key, I will get the charge back cost. That's how it works, it doesn't matter if I generate 300 keys if 300 of them are bought with stolen credit cards. I never said it was on Steam, but its the dev that gets hit. There is a ton of stories out there if you google it.
