Hacking Is there anything additional needed to load games on n3DS?

[BobDoleOwndU]

From the thread you linked...

Ah nevermind, didn't realize the method relied on Nintendo's CDN.

My n3DS arrived. It's 8.1.0-J.

Huh? I never said anything about piracy.

There is a way: https://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-upgrading-8-1-0-0j-to-9-2-0-20j.384960/

Oh, thank you for that.
Luckily, one of my friends decided to buy a sky3ds, so I'll borrow from him.

Seeing as there isn't 1TB of 3ds games....

Actually there's 652 3DS games, and at an average size of 2GB, that works out to 1.3TB.
Will you be able to install all of them? Not with one SD card, but if you exclude the crap games, you could do dual EmuNANDs with a 1TB SD card (when they come out) and a MicroSD M to SD F adapter, or two seperate 512GB MicroSD cards each with their own EmuNAND.

Of course it would cost $2000.

@videogame57 coming in with all the answers

I think I got about 100 GB of 3DS game dumps on my various HD's, need to actually consolidate them, take out dupes and stuff. I know I don't have all the Japanese stuff, but I do have pretty much all the USA & European releases. Why am I saying this? Because it doesn't matter if I say it on a public forum. No one cares, no one will come after me for it, ever.

I have about 120GB, but discounting duplicates (I originally got 3DS for Sky3DS, and then CIA for CFW) it's about 70GB of unique games.

Unfortunately that method doesn't work anymore, it relied on being able to download the 9.2 updates from Nintendo's CDN; I didn't realize this when I commented. @VerseHell is correct, there is currently no way to update from 8.1.0-0J to 9.0-9.2.

Super Smash Brothers 4 3DS has 9.2 packed with it. He can run it using his friend's Sky3DS.

Not the jpn version.

 

[RikuKawai]

Not the jpn version.

Forgot the part about it being a J region 3DS...
There's several J region games that are 9.0...but they're all eShop so they don't have firmware packaged.

Can't he just use the browser or Cubic Ninja on the Sky3DS as an entry point, then use sysupdater?

Hahahah. First rule of fight club is don't talk about fight club.

So no way for full system access... just Gateway? I don't like gateway's game selector where there's 5 game shown on screen at same time and you use d-pad to select the game.

 

[VerseHell]

You can use cias on gateway too.

 

[uyjulian]

Eh, I'll just put my n3ds in storage and play the waiting game again...

You aren't the only one who has posted in this thread, are you?

lol, it seems you're the only asshole in this thread. What's with the hostility?

Anyhow, I realise your comment wasn't aimed at me (since my comment was less "fuck you pirate OP", and more "what kind of moron brags about his collection of pirated games on a public forum").

It's highly unlikely I'd post if it was just to attack someone for being a pirate. But if I had something to contribute to the conversation, and I did, then I'm more than entitled to preface my post with my opinion on piracy. But I'd do so only it were relevant to the post I was replying to, which it was.

The difference between what I feel entitled to, and what you feel entitled to, is that you're robbing game developers of money they're entitled to, and I dont.

8.1J doesn't have a browser, and the only way he could boot into sysNAND to run sysupdater is via Gateway. But, attempting to update in sysNAND Gateway Mode will result in him bricking his new3DS.

Eh, well I did warn you that it'd be running 8.1J, and that your only option would be Gateway.

Sell it, and get an exploitable one. The hunt for an exploitable new3DS will take far less time, than the time you'd spend playing the waiting game.

Eh, I'm not going to play with my n3DS right now, as I still have my o3DS with me. I'd rather have an exploitable console in case something comes up, while still being able to play my games.

You're right, I wasn't talking about you. And I agree fully with your sentiments re: "bragging". I was referring to gallymimu
