DSi 1.4.3 is out!

[Nicole Luyben]

Does this mean the 3DS is soon to be updated, just like last time?

Nice guess ,

But dont want it happen, give us a breath , nintendo , since the last 3DS 2.1.0-3 update is only 3 or 4 weeks old ?

 

[Nicole Luyben]

Well , R4i gold 3DS (www.r4ids.cn) official site released the news :

[ Great News ] R4i Gold 3DS can support the newest DSi V1.4.3 Firmware successfully without any updating! (Jun.30,2011)

Please Note: So far,the other flashcards can not support the DSi V1.4.3

Confirmed!

Ahem. Was anyone else's eye caught by the Chess Master thing? Who's actually played it? Sorry to be a bit off topic, but seriously? Who has? What's it like?

Sudokuhax is still safe provided you already have it installed, if anyone was curious. I went ahead and updated because I have an Original model to update my DSTwo on, and wanted to download The Lost Town from the DSiWare shop tomorrow morning anyways.

New firmware?

Oh well, I'm waiting for the flashcarts maker to offer some "behind-the-scene improvements" to their flashcarts, then I'll upgrade.

 

[Evo.lve]

What is this in China?

1.4.4?

 

[Saddamsdevil]

I updated my DSI XL to 1.4.2 the other day, only to find out my DS2 wont update on a DS lite T_T, not updating anything ever again

Except my 3ds

Didn't Smiths say something about there only being a handful of DS games that can be spoofed? Maybe the N knows this and wants to force flashcard teams to run out of games they can use.

there are only a handful. each time a team releases a new update which gets blocked we lost one rom we can use. most of the new cards use a different design. the bootloader icon is the 1st check, its basically checking to see if its a valid icon for that card. after that the firmware queries the card for some data. the older cards just spit back the data for that game sitting in the bootlaoder. the new cards can have the data spoofed. so when you update the new cards you only update the data it spits back and not the game/icon in the boot loader. once all the bootloader only methods are blocked those cards will be rather useless, i think. although i have been told that the acekard could be updated if the time ever comes (assuming the acekard teams allows certain devs to do it), so its possible that the handful of roms being fully exploited won't matter when it comes down to it.

-another world

By update, do you mean the bootstrap in the AK2i or a new AK2i is needed?

Anyways why don't Nintendo just put a end to this and just patch up all those games so flashcart companies can't use them. There's only a handful too.

Blocking all flash carts forever is bad because people who are only buying a dsi for free games would be put off buying the console in the first place. Making it annoying to run a flash cart is better for nintendo than not having flashcarts. Plus if there were no exploitable games then someone would be motivated into looking for other ways to do it, which could be potentially more damaging to Nintendo.

It could also be that they don't want to take the risk at blocking games without a test case, it's cheaper for Nintendo to wait for someone to create the header before they try to block it.

Isnt this too soon?

It's not bad; Nintendo doesn't want you to pirate games. If there ever was a way to stop piracy on the DS, nintendo will make more money from increased software sales.

It doesn't matter if they find another exploit, it can't be any worse than this.

but it seems like another dick move by Nintendo to release an update for anything that does nothing....oh wait!

Yeah! Shame on Nintendo for protecting their system from pirates! What dicks!

Idiot.

Are you being serious?! Nintendo have the right to protect their hardware, y'know!

 

[Marlonguppy]

Does this update include Debian?
I don't think so. No extras, just a piece of AP shit.

Maybe someone can make a slot-1 booter via Sudokuhax

Although I own a DSTWO myself, I'm personally all for Nintendo blocking flashcards since most people just buy them so that they can play pirated games. What Nintendo really need to do is follow in the footsteps of smartphone manufacturers and release an affordable SDK for the DSi/3DS, so that homebrew developers like myself can develop our games and have a legit way to publish them.

That's not possible since access to SLOT-1 is disabled when a title is launched from the NAND.

+1
I had a DSi with an Acekard 2i, but never actually played pirated games (only backups created by myself with an usb device thing)
But now you can't run any homebrew, so the piraters are 'bricking' it for others who don't play pirated games.

Yeah, I forgot that for a moment.

Offtopic:
What I had seen yesterday was someone having an actual modified version of Apache(or someting else, didn't see it very well)(webserver) on his DSi, he just gave it a static IP and port-forwarded it. That's a low cost webserver, but it didn't had the php-extensions.
