DSi "Channels" Exploit Announced

[WiKiLEAK]

I wish the other thread wasn't deleted, seems to be more noobs in this thread saying "omg, i think its fake because (insert stupid reason here)"

We where first to have a ps3 mod in ours hands. First to test Wii modchip firmware from wiikey, first to have certain wii dvd drives before they where even in retail wiis. First with a lot of stuff, and its never been fake. Why would we risk our rep for a joke?

I already said that I don't know more yet. About this hack. I know what they have told me, but I don't want to say anymore until the video is given to me, just to make sure. Because the claims are pretty BIG.

Video should be with me within a week, then my job is done and they are on their own for publicity.

The iEvo thing in in the picture is just a light joke. Stir the team up a bit, competition is good.
Cyclops team don't deserve the crap that gbatemp members throw their way. Selling a card, and supporting it for many years to come is hard...the best solution is to open the card up like the AceKard, and the community can support it themselves. Now thats almost what it seems like they are trying to do here.

Anyone who is innovating doesn't deserve to be bashed.
Team cyclops could have made a DS lite card that works on the Dsi, like all of the other teams out there.
They would have sold a ton of them. BUT they waited until they could do something usefull.
Now if you call that greedy, then I am a monkeys uncle.

WiiPower: I was only trying to figure it out for myself. I respect their choice to be anonamous, like all other modteams

For all i care, that could be TC doing a joke at themself ... either way we all win

Let's the LEAK start [

= Julian Asange ]

You didn't look at the picture, did you? And yes, we should wait until we start assuming things.

Thank you ozmodchips for this great news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess this group has been fooled before?

Just a question, have they told you if it was a hardware or software mod?
BTW, I find it kinda strange and/or coincidental that your post was #42 in this thread.

A frog? Very creative...

Not really. That's the icon for Flipnote Studio...

which means that they passed the channel off as DSiWare, rather like how flashcarts bypass 1.4.1 by passing themselves off as Alex Rider/Fish Tycoon.

OzModChips is a hugely reliable source and a pretty good shop, I believe that this could be real, but being the skeptic I am I'll wait for the video.

I doubt someone would ask for publicty help if it was software and totally free. But besides that I don't know.
I am guessing its a combination of both. Use some kind of hardware to modify the consoles software?

There is still 1 more team, yet to make an annoucement as well. I think they said January/Feb for their product. Which can apparently do the same thing as TC.
No team has claimed to be able to do what this new team claims.

Tbh I don't know why anyone is bothering with this.

50% of people will say it's a publicity scam.

49.9999% will say "yeah whatever I'll wait for more evidence"

The remaining 0.0001% are the noobs who will say "I IZ TROLL"

And 99% of everyone will say "Fuck this, 3DS is out soon".

But if the DSI code is cracked than it will be easier for the 3ds to be crack. Would it not?

The way people carry on about a $50 flash card, I doubt many will be buying the 3DS on launch

Not really. It's a 128-bit encryption which has about 18 quintillion possible codes.

That's true.

But then again, most of them are only carrying on because it doesn't do what they wanted it to.

i've talked to some game testers who have told me (off the record) that the 3ds is causing headaches. to be honest, i grew up in the 3d age and to this day i still enjoy good 3d. i want to own the 3ds but i'm not 100% sure about it until more people report back on any problems it may cause to the brain or eyes.

i'll forever look to hacks for what homebrew they can bring us. dsi-ware would be great, but i'm more interested in dsi homebrew. i think this announcement is huge in those respects. it seems like a majority of users have pirating on their minds. most of the 3ds discussions i've read have been about roms, rom size, pirating, 3ds flash kits, etc. i'm more interested in the possibility of 3ds homebrew! if this hack leads to a 3ds homebrew solution then this is even bigger than "huge."

I think it's the technique that Nintendo's using for lens-free 3D, and the so-called "sweet spot" your head needs to be fixed at (as I've heard that moving your head out of the spot even slightly will hurt your eyes). I guess their compensation for the headaches is the 3D adjustment slider.

I tip my hat to whoever can make 3DS homebrew.

Although DSi Homebrew would be a step into the future, as I've said many times before, access to the SD card slot, which isn't possible in the first place, and access to the NAND, which is pointless in the first place, is useless. A flashcart with a mSD is enough to store stuff, the only thing I use my SD slot for is to store a 4GB mSD in an adapter. And even then it goes unused.

The only possibility the DSi hacked brings is use of the cameras, which, although I agree would be cool, is pointless, due to the low quality of the cameras.

I only say one thing.

Let´s hope that this thing is only a software and will be free

lookin forward to the video

the sd slot and nand will probably be required to run dsi-ware, which is something most of the users want. after the slot-1 is launched you can not use the sd slot or nand due to a hardware restriction. if the sd slot and nand are unlocked, and the channels area can be hacked, what will we really need a flash kit for? isn't that what makes this news so exciting?

also, please do not forget that dsi mode means a faster cpu and more ram.

Agreed, can't wait to see more proof of this thing! [DSiBrew Channel, here we come!]

Well the SuperCard seems to be pretty popular becuase it can run GBA stuff, emulators etc.
They had to add extra hardware to do that. If TC or these guys can run DSi code, then they don't need to have complex hardware and it would be less limiting.

I don't see a legal reason to be able to run DSiWare. The content is already in digital form. There is no reason to back it up.

I don't know if you can run purchased DSiWare from an SD card now, because i know the Dsi NAND is 256mb, but if you cannot then I guess thats the only semi legal reason there is.

Whilst it might be possible to use the DSi's extra processing to maybe improve Genesis or SNES emulation, I doubt you're going to be able to emulate GBA games on DSi mode any time soon.
Actually there is an example, Sonic Classic Collection. The game secretly operates in DSi-Mode when played on a DSi, to enable better performance, and the game is practically a commercial version of jEnesisDS.
