Hacking m3sakura is almost here!

[Toni Plutonij]

I doubt they'll be releasing it early in the morning, probably some time after 8.00 AM, at least I think so (it would surely make sense)

 

[ringorinfret]

What!? We will have to wait another 4 hours?? this is non-sense....

 

[Toni Plutonij]

Yes!! It got delayed again

for about few hours.............Is it possible?!?! Who should I kill (or f**k) to get that freakin' Sakura........

(I actually don't mind waiting

)

 

[LukeDS]

LOL yeah I don't mind waiting either, pretty keen to check it all out though and skin it

I noticed the "Download" section on m3sakura.jp has some updated text { I might be wrong but I don't remember it being there before }

Translated to -

"The M3 Sakura firmware is the next few days release schedule. (It cannot start with the hardware other than M3REAL Japanese edition or M3 Sakura. ) "

Google Translation:

M3???????????????????? Sakura M3 firmware is coming soon.

? M3REAL???? ??? M3??? ???????????????????? (M3REAL Sakura Japanese version of M3 and other hardware can not start.)

Bummer if we have to wait longer for use on English M3 Real.

 

[Unchi-san]

so wait... all the M3 real users w/ english carts can't use it?

if so.. that blows for most of the gbatempers... unless theres a way around it.

 

[Toni Plutonij]

There's always a way around it.....But, lets not make wrong assumptions....Wait for few more hours, until it gets released, and than we'll talk about possible hacks/translations or whatever will be needed to get it work on english Reals..

I would really like if Densetsu3000 was here, he always does those translations nicely and understandable (without those bad google translations)

 

[ringorinfret]

Whats the hardware difference between a Jap and a US one ?? It's dumb to have different hardware....are the NDS different over there in Japan? what justifies having different flavors of the same card

 

[Unchi-san]

the google translation is actually accurate. let's hope it does work on the non-japanese m3 reals though

See this topic: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=63782

Basically the makers did it on purpose.

 

[gangsterboi]

I don't care about the real.... im using my g6 and they better not waist to much time releasing it for g6.

 

[xJonny]

How do you mean? The G6 Slot1 is the G6 Real so it is a "real".

 

[gangsterboi]

I could of rephrased that better. What i meant was I don't care about the m3 real. I am using the g6real and i hope they don't take long to release the g6 version of the firmware.

A download has shown up!

[ringorinfret]

IT'S THERE! SAKURA JAP IS THERE :-)

 

[halomasta]

If the Sakura beta has already been converted it shouldn't be a stretch to translate the real thing...correct?

 

[thedicemaster]

it is region locked.
m3sakura will perform the first few steps of booting, but shortly after the fat-init it will detect you don't have a jap m3 and it will freeze.
this however is an "intentional" freeze so it should be possible to remove.

 

[klaafstra99]

It's not entirely clear to me: will the SAKURA firmware run on M3 Real or not?

 

[Toni Plutonij]

It will, but at this point, only Japan version is released, and it's Region-locked..So, we'll either have to wait..or find some good guy, to hack it for us, and remove protection..
