you would have to translate the entire thing and add it as a external patch. buy the English one if its out. its a lot easier.Is there any way to english patch a 3ds cartidge or buy one?
That doesnt really answer my questionyou would have to translate the entire thing and add it as a external patch. buy the English one if its out. its a lot easier.
You would need cfw to patch a cart as its read only memory. That said you can use luma to add a patch. Is the game you are after only in a non english language or is there english versions out there?That doesnt really answer my question
wrong. sky3ds is significantly different. 3ds has rom checks in place preventing those bootleg games or rom hacks from appearing. And because sky3ds just decides to emulate a entire game, same restrictions apply, it can't load a modded rom of a 3ds game.Couldn't Sky3DS be considered sort of a clone? I mean all the DS flashcards basically did what you would have done to make a bootleg game, right?
Ah, I see. Thanks for the clarification. Any idea how Switch carts work then? Still RSA?DS flashcards did things differently and were able to get around a lot of issues. First thing is the original batch if I recall used a exploit that was on the original ds. *can't remember what it is. I might be wrong* and then when the dsi was released, the whitelist became a thing. and has a list of valid and good ds game headers. With dsi carts and newer ds games having a RSA check for the cart after the dsi released. Which if the game wasn't on the whitelist, but however did have a good proper RSA check using Nintendo's own keys. Then it would run the cart. However if it wasn't and the RSA was wrong, then it wouldn't boot. This whitelist concept was also introduced on the 3ds for the same ds games without a rsa check. Which is why ds flashcards get around security fairly easily in regards to running custom code. It's disguised as a whitelisted cart, and because it's not under the constraints of a rsa check, none of that code can be checked. BUT with the 3ds and 3ds games that all changes. Since there is no such thing as a whitelist, and all carts have a rsa check. Which to clarify, rsa checks are not like headers at all. Headers are like a name, they are more easily to fake. But a RSA for the sake of simplicity, it checks everything. So having the same name and then changing something in the code won't work, because then it fails the rsa check. For the sake of a example
I can call myself bob. And claim I am a valid worker. If a job used a header check/whitelist. Just me being named bob gives me a pass.
But if I call myself bob, and they do a RSA check. I will fail, since I don't look like the real bob to it. I don't have the special branded underwear, nor I'm I not wearing the watch I'm supposed to wear, and I'm wearing shoes instead of a specific brand of boots that my employers gave me and told that I must wear.
*this is a gross simplification but example is example*
RSA but even more complex and more checks. Tl;Dr impossible to even emulate a switch cart like how the sky3ds did with 3ds games.Ah, I see. Thanks for the clarification. Any idea how Switch carts work then? Still RSA?
Yeah, you'd figure that Nintendo would eventually find a way to combat flash cards , even if the fact that Sky3ds was the only option for the 3ds at a whooping 80$ price tag kinda showed that they'd already managed to beat flash cards.RSA but even more complex and more checks.

Afaik the switch has some extra measures that makes it impossible to do a middle man like the sky3ds.

3DS carts are read-only, so you can't edit the cart's data.Is there any way to english patch a 3ds cartidge or buy one?
