Hacking Has anyone destroyed 3DS game carts?

[earny]

I think the easiest is to just put them in a small sealed container like a tubber wear bowl and put them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. I'd keep it in a sealed container while doing this so it doesn't foul up the microwave.

it's remind me of a game

Also a better way would be to carefully disassemble the cartridges and microwave the PCBs. Then you can sell the empty cartridge cases as replacement shells for other games.

Fire. Kill it with fire. The method has two positives: Using fire and getting rid of the cart.

Another method, though just as effective, is to just rip the cart into pieces. A grinding wheel or similar will also mince the cart into pieces.

Microwave it for 11 seconds. Not 10 seconds. NEVER 10 seconds.

fire, trash bin, razor, guillotine, 220000 volts line...

just put a drill through it.

don't put it in the microwave, metal and microwaves are dangerous.

toilets and then pee and poo and say good bye,
or just a bath if fine, but this is not fun.
Or better : give me your game, since I don't play online lol

I just finished giving out some headers from games I have (Still have more games) and I want to know if anyone else has figured out a good way of destroying 3DS cartridges. They seem to be completely indestructible!

I want to destroy the games for these users so that they can have a piece of mind. These are very terrible games so not gonna worry about destroying them.

So any ideas?

you need to join the us army they will teach you how to destroy things.

... Hammerrrrr

Hahaha I use Skylanders Giants. Funny thing is it might be the next way since it has those toys which might lead to an NFC exploit..... Then I would be pissed.....




Mostly sky3ds users, plus for the price I am asking I don't see a cheaper way. I mean I am not doing it for profit, I do it just to help people out.

gamestop got a TON of brand new Steel Diver carts. If you find a pre-owned box on the shelf you'll get a brand new sealed copy. I picked up quite a few of them and every time I'm in a gamestop I pick one up.. they are $2.50 with a powerup card.

also make a video of destroying your carts/3ds.. I'm sure alot of butthurts fans will be watching in awe as you axe, smash, rip, burn and jizz on those precious gaems..


You could also sell them after on ebay as some sort of modern art.. or something..

I know a guy who knows a guy who can "dispose" of these game carts without a trace left behind, if you catch my drift.

 

[dubbz82]

almost 3 months after last post, and you felt the need to post that?

 

[NostalgicMillennial]

Cubic Ninja was just a "terrible game" too until someone discovered its potential!

I would highly recommend going with destroying the carts in a microwave. You can't go wrong with this decision!

Reading this kind of topic really makes me sad, because these things are SO EXPENSIVE here... :/
Well 1st world problem, I guess.

 

[WhoAmI?]

I had to use a friends raspberry pi and NFC capture card to get the initial code then my s4 could put out the code with no problem. I assume if someone were to make a hack it would have to do something similar then release the code

What!!?? Your phone can host an NFC card!? O.M.G. I heard about the HCE feature, in Android but that's it. Also, isn't there apps on Google Play, that can read all the sectors of an NFC chip, or am I missing something? Sorry for being off topic but this is REALLY intriguing. Sorry >.<

Do you have a blog or tutorial or something? Would be awesome if you did. I'd like to clone my college NFC pass

Edit: Put the cards, in a vice

cheaper to buy a header

I don't know... Personally i'd rather pay $20-$25 for a powersave + cheap game and be sure the header is actually private rather than pay $9-$10 and have no garantee that the header is private and wasn't resold multiple times for quick $$.
