Yes

 

There are two known trojens created to destroy the ds, both attempt to overwrite the ds firmware. If you have installed flashme on your ds, some recovery code is written in part of the protected area and provides access to some slot-2 cards to reinstall flashme. otherwize your ds can be bricked.

However, these trojans have not been seen in the wild and you have little to no chance of comming into contact with them. Nobody has infected any games with code like this, and i doubt they ever will.

 

We won't know that until R4 1.19 came out, it said to brick the DS that use R4-clone.

or it might be in next big game from SE to punish pirate

 

scroll down to darkfaders walware section & the trojans are there http://darkfader.net/ds/

 

Get your DS flashed if you're up for the risk. I flashed mine, technically the worst a virus can do to me is erase my microSD and temporarily brick my DS until I can boot a reflash of the firmware.

 

And my NOD32 and Symantec AV Corporate both claim to detect it.

 

I actually have both of them in a folder on my Linux drive.

 

I have over 200 viruses in a folder. None anywhere else.

 

wow... a trojan in a ROM... apparently you people don't know what a TROJAN virus is...

A trojan virus hijacks a system, and allows remote control of a terminal... the virus itself is not destructive, only the end user (or hacker).

A trojan virus alone cannot hurt ANYTHING. It just sits there, waiting for someone to connect to it to give commands.

Some of the early trojans were able to make screen shots, log keystrokes, copy files, and for fun, could send documents to your printer, and open and close the optical drive, among other things.
