Introducing NINJHAX - A Nintendo 3DS Homebrew Exploit!

[Deleted-355425]

im betting they just looked on ebay.

 

[thenotoriousrod]

smea's hints regarding its price and availability narrowed it down to a small set of games, plus some fun speculations like sss standing for shinobi x shinobi x shinobi (ninja cubed), but for me personally it was when he asked people to make him a webpage for his exploit, one had sample text vaguely detailing the instructions to install it, and one bit of text in the instructions was less vague: "Hit 'play' and your 3ds will say that it is updating." I watched gameplay videos that started from booting the cart for the few games it was narrowed down to and only cubic ninja had a "play" option on its main menu. quite a stretch (and a killer wait since the end of august to see if I had bought the right game) but it paid off haha

Excellent insight. Had I had any idea he was actually giving out clues, I'd have tried my hand too lol Even so, I doubt I would have guess right as I NEVER heard of this game in my life. Also it was really clever of him naming the exploit shinobi x shinobi x shinobi. This guy is brilliant lol

You were just in time, too. It looks like GameStop has hiked the price of a used copy of Cubic Ninja up to $40!

Not only does GameStop have just about the worst trade in value policy in the entire industry but they also try to capitalize off hype which is based on an exploit AS A RETAILER lol

I may never buy from Gamestop again.


BRING BACK FUNCOLAND!

well he said here that it stood for super special secret, but the shinobi cubed guess was just too clever for me to ignore lol

I think it's called "market economy". They would have to be stupid to keep selling the game for $5 when there is such a huge demand. This has nothing to do with ethics.

Btw, anyone know whether Ssspwn will allow for DS mode without a flashcart?
I'd love to have one card off my cases.

 

[hyperg]

Business people aren't all ethical to begin with.

That's odd. I've been watching the status of my package from Amazon. Yesterday, they had it saying it left City of Industry, CA early in the morning (I live in Sacramento), and now, they backtracked it. The tracking code used for USPS still says it left CoI yesterday, but not on Amazon anymore....

It is from a 3rd-party (with Amazon fulfilling the order), but is it possible that either one of them could somehow recall it before it ever reaches me?

 

[Deleted-355425]

but still a legit business making money from an exploitable game still comes across as a grey area to me especially when they sell video games for a living lol.

I'd love to stop using my DSTWO. That thing sucks the battery dry, even in sleep mode.

yeah, it appears they pulled the stocks from their stores at least showing stock online yesterday, then updated the price and put the stock availability back online.

 

[DiscostewSM]

Wouldn't be surprised if GS opened all their new CN copies just so they can mark it up as used.

He confirmed on twitter earlier that it won't enable launching anything DS mode.

maybe he found out that he would allow piracy with it and now tries to search a way to disable this. <---- a very wild and unlikey guess.

Cubic Ninja in hand and a bit of time for a play with SSSpwn some time in the next few hours

It's going to be released tonight SO what does that mean? it means.. something... the end of the world perhaps? I dunno but it means something.

My copy is only coming next week. Nuuuuuu.... Well, This means that if any 3DS updates come to block the patch then I'll have to refuse them. Surprisingly plans HAVE been accelerated as per Smealum's latest tweet. O.o
