This. Clones WILL come out with the limit broken soon. If Sky3DS doesn't step it up, others will blow past them.

We are very much spoiled by the the flexibility of the Gateway team and product. With Sky in this case, you get what you pay for, probably nothing else. Still where there is a hack there is a way. The secret to reuse appears to be in the W25Q16DV Flash device. A pic chip, raspberry pi, or arduino will make it happen using the SPI bus.
They'll have a bit of a grace period - I don't know how long it generally takes to produce these cards in 'large' quantities.
But their time limit seems to be the time it takes for people to figure out how they did it, reproduce it and then mass produce it.
How you guys can be Sure that its a DRM by Sky3DS?
What if its a Tech Limitation? How you can be so dure clones will come out without that limit?
Maybe Sky3DS forced themselves to release the Card in time for ORAS/Smash. Maybe its an unfinished Product and released it like that cuz couldnt figured out how to have that limit lifted and they didnt wanna miss ORAS?

Its a bit like Shrödingers cat - untill either side is "proven", neither side is definitively correct so both are plausible/true.
If you assume its a tech limitation, you restrict yourself from looking into alternative routes by default.
There's a variety of options/theories open right now.
Ranging from "they purposefully chose limited hardware" to "its a software limitation".
So far there have been several people come up with potential solutions by looking at the hardware. Indicating that there really shouldn't be a practical reason why there is a 10 game limit (and thus its there by design/choice.)
There's a video of someone that got an 11th game working on one of these cards.
And there's someone that claims to have a way to 'wipe' the 10-limit list (but will reveal this 'tomorrow').
The reality being - we just don't know for sure yet either way. And everyone is far too eager to see how the cards will fall.
Post about 11 games on the card and from the same thread this post, referring to the pictures that this kind person made visible for everyone (the originals had some linking problems but are found on the previous page of the same thread.)
The latter one seems more 'vague' since its a claim to reveal at a later date - but again, we'll have to see.

Whatever. I don't care for a pirate card. Smea current plan is to release his exploit in two weeks. Than we will see some hombrew come out slowly afterwords.

Im kinda slow when it comes to homebrew and its community and I was wondering if Smeas exploit will be compatible with the latest current firmware?
Yes, yes it will. As far as I know though, there's still no word on what game we'll need to get started (as we will need a specific game for it).
Perhaps by the time I decide I'm ready for a 3DS flash cart, we will have a new one with either the limit removed or a larger limit of games (or at least allow the card to be cleared with a 2nd button or something).
Quick question - Are you able to swap out ROMs without losing save files? I saw in the review that people have called it a "10-in-1 cartridge" which makes me worried that you can't even swap out the games/ROMs.
* Sky3DS DiskWriter V1.07 [11/12/2014]
Change logs:
* backup/restore games function added
* backup/restore save data function added
* delete game function added
* more games title updated in template file.
I would say thats a yes.
I been fallowing his tweeter. The game is available as an eshop title, but not in all regions. Those guys will have to settle for the physical game card. Personally I wouldn't buy it digitally anyway, unless it is something embarrassing like barbie's horse racing or a littlest pet shop title lol.
And why would you care whether its physical or digital? Its not like you're getting it to show off your collection right?
i think he meant he doesn't want to go buy a physical copy of barbie XD....you know like embarrassed in the shop, but really there's no reason to be embarrassed im sure once the name of the game is released even if it was barbie suddenly lots of guys would be buying the "neice/daughter" etc a "birthday present"
Hehe, I guess there's that... I figured ordering it online or second hand generally allows you to get it for less... But eh.
And indeed, "Its a christmas present"

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.+1
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
