I don't need a flashcart for 3DS games (I'll just buy those) but I do want one but only if there are top notch emulators for the legacy consoles (NES/Famicom, SNES/SFC, Genesis/Megadrive w/ 4mb+ rom support, PC Engine, if possible N64), DS, and the GBA.

But his body is ready!

Why is this even in this section when there's 20 threads like this in the hacking section?

I'd love to see what the demoscene and cracktro makers could do with the 3D effects, gyroscope etc.

Demos are rarely interactive, you know...

The DS demoscene was miserable, let's hope for better prods on 3DS.

Cracktros, no. Demos sometimes have interactive sections such as modifiable starfields etc.

true, but they know the hackers will be waiting for something so theyll give the hackers something. then theyll get a heads up on the hackers hopefully midway through their developments with a new firmware update and make them start afresh. if that works itll take the hackers even longer to hack the system, which we're all against in this debate. we WANT it hacked, so im just outlining Nintendo's POSSIBLE ideas in order for the hackers to be aware of what they MIGHT be up against. stupid, terrible ideas or not, that's Nintendo for ya. It WILL be hacked, Nintendo can't do anything about that, but they CAN delay it as long as possible using any means possible. Other than that I do see your point.

So you're saying Nintendo is lazy? Perhaps even stupid? You can't use the DS as an example, as you are aware. This is the first time Nintendo can start fresh against piracy since it started becoming a real problem. It was never really necessary for Nintendo to put the strongest security on the DSi, since all that would mean is people would start buying DS Lites. There was already a widely spread method of pirating games on the DS console. Now they are starting with a whole new console, where there is no way of pirating their new games. You don't need to tell "hackers" (I hate that word) what they are up against. No offense, but anybody who can exploit a console is more experienced than anyone else here on GBAtemp. Are you really that naive to assume Nintendo is going to take the easy way out?

I'll tell you what. If the 3DS is "hacked" to be able to play pirated games with a practical method in the first two years, I will gladly put my foot in my mouth and stay quiet.

Hey Nutella remember this quote? Well it's been only a few DAYS and pirated games can be played on it! Don't pull technicalities on me, you didn't specify what kind of pirated games you meant (ie. either NDS mode or 3DS mode). So you gonna put your foot in your mouth now? Or are you gonna keep debating until you realise that you were wrong? Because I can almost guarantee that by the end of the 3DS's first full year, someone will have cracked it to play 3DS games at the very least, maybe not their apps though...

Still thinking, maybe when the 3DS gets its first confirmed 3DS-mode flashcart, what emulators would be released? obviously a GBC emu, and because of LoZ's update, then an N64 emu would be in order, also perhaps (if it has the processing power) a GameCube emu? Let's hope they rerelease some of the faves of GCN, would be nice....

You sir are an idiot.

How so, I'd like to know? (Hey that rhymed

) They cracked the DS in its first year, why should this be any different?

The 3DS is much more powerful then the ds was to the gameboy advanced.

And? they've still got the starting point from cracking it already with just DS games, it just needs a bit of tinkering (at least according to my guitar teacher) to be ready to play in 3DS mode

Yeah, no I'm not putting my foot in my mouth. Obviously it was implied that I was talking about 3DS games. It's a thread about 3DS, so naturally, you could assmue that I was talking about the 3DS. The only real reason that you're guaranteeing that pirated 3DS games will be possible this year is because DS flashcarts work on it. That's it. You have no other basis for your argument whatsoever.

Regardless, even if what you say does happen, there isn't going to be a practical use for end users for years and I specified that clearly. I spoke on a level that any user could understand, without mentioning a single technicality, so don't tell me I'm pulling technicalities. Seriously, you're 15 years old. You were 8 when the DS came out. You didn't even know that the R4 Team was shut down years ago. It helps knowing the history of the DS scene before you start speculating blindly on the 3DS. The DS, which supposedly had miserable security according to most unknowing users, took 2-3 years for an affordable, usable and valuable method of piracy to become available to end users in mass numbers.

Listen, I've tried to reason with you without being condescending, but I don't know why you're so persistent on something you don't understand. I can't even begin to describe how retarded this statement is. Seriously, your guitar teacher?

4 things. 1st: Get your history right, I was 9, not 8.
2: I didn't know that the r4 team was shut down at the time, because i had only just joined the flashcart scene. I was brought up to speed quickly though and now I'm almost up-to-date with the news thanks to this site.
3:What do you mean by affordable in piracy? there's almost no money involved!
4: I have my offline sources around the place, they are in the know quicker than me and have more experience, thus knowledge and as such are reliable sources for the basis of my arguments.

My final point is: the DS mode has been hacked, and as such, the flashcart teams out there are doing their best to crack 3DS mode to play the games. Whether the flashcart is released by the end of the year is a different matter, but if it is cracked to play 3DS games, then we may not know about it until they wish to release the news.
