You can facepalming me how many times you want...But this is The throuth.
You can put your Head under the Sand But The reason because many in 2016 to buy a console it s The possibility of hacking.
Then you dont note here we are in gbatemp.
Not nintendo Dot com
What you don't understand is that GBAtemp is not a piracy forum...
The only reason why devs try to exploit locked down hardware is as a proof-of-concept and as a personal challenge to enable homebrew or to use Linux on the machine (what by the way would be awesome)
The side-effect of this is that it enables piracy. Do you really want to make me believe that you bought the console to play Space Game,
[email protected] or Pong on it?
Some Homebrew is already working even on FW 5.5.x, this is what this thread is about... THE PROGRESS...
This doesn't necessarily mean piracy, does it?
Oh yeah, maybe for you and your friends.
Whoever buys now an already "dead" console when the new Nintendo NX is on it's way and is now whining or complaining that he spent money on it doesn't deserve it better...
Patience is a virtue...
