Homebrew How to update freeshop games?

Do i need to update the titlekey every time for new games like pikmin and miitopia?

My Eshop shows these titles but freeshop does not. Anyone from UK/EU have these titles showing?

I have deleted the correct folder, re-installed freeshop and added the titlekeys.

Are you sure they are in the titlekeys database? If they aren't then they can't show up in freeShop. Someone has to buy them and upload the titlekeys, and then they have to be put on the cache.

Hey Pikmin is available on that iso site. They have .nds version which you can convert via GodMode9 to cia file. That's what I ended up doing. They probably have cia version by now as well.

A Hey! Pikmin .nds file? ...What? I assume you meant .3ds?

thanks for this! I was not aware of how the whole titlekeys thing worked. For some reason I just thought the freeshop somehow just accessed the same server/ files as the eshop.

For others in the same position. The titles I am looking for are not there - despite what others are saying. I am sure they will turn up in time. Thanks for all the help.

You could always buy them to make them available for others :-)

It does access the same server and files, but it needs another place to access the keys, since eShop only releases those after payment. That's what the key database is for.

Thanks.


For anyone reading this later on; the bug I had was due to freeshop but this has now been updated and all works fine.
 
The latest game I see on my FreeShop list is, "Ninja Smasher". Is this normal?? I updated FreeShop and the URL about 5 times, but the results are always the same :c

No, the latest game is not Ninja Smasher. Make sure the URL is http://<name of site>.gq/downloadenc, and that you have deleted the old URL, and that you have closed freeShop to save the new URL.

no it will update itself, each time it boots it will look for update, if you have auto update set in settings, in the drop down box in the settings where it has the url, click on it and delete any other urls you have, then do not save just close the app using the home button, then next time you boot, it should only have the 1 url and have latest games list

Thanks so much! I did as you said, and now my game list is updated :-D I see Miitopia on the list as well as a Phoenix Wright game, I believe? (It's in Japanese)
