With the recent release of TWLTool to downgrade and be able to hack any DSi that exists right as of now, as well as being able to run DSiWare on hacked 3DS consoles, it'd be nice to have a place for all the DSi-related development on the site, whether it's homebrew or tools for DSiWare (Such as tools for editing various games). Could this be a possibility in the near future, perhaps even just a single subforum of the Nintendo DS section?

 

This would avoid confusion for sure.

 

This is not that hard. or just "dsi" would do.

 

As is always the case, when/if there is enough content to warrant a new section, that section will be made. As of now, there is still not nearly enough focused around DSi hacking to have an entire section devoted to it.

 

it actually just needs a separated area inside the nds part. or even a sub section like the different flashcarts own sections...

 

This was exactly what I had in mind, actually.

Keep in mind, however, that every single DSi that exists right now is exploitable. That isn't the case for the 3DS. I do see your point though. Perhaps if news about it were spread it may gain popularity.

 

how about a new3ds section too? lol

 

please admins, make this real

 

I don't think comparing your cause to done and dead sections and saying "well it would be more active than this" is really going to do much to further your cause.

 

Even with that tool, I don't see much spark being brought back into the DSi hacking scene. Hell, when the DSi was hacked and there was even a flashcard that ran in DSi-mode, it was met with a resounding, meh. Hackers weren't interested and the community fell flat before it could even take off.
Maybe this tool will spark some interest now, but I don't see it taking much away from the 3DS hacking scene, at least not enough to make it's own section. Maybe a sub in the DS, but that's implying this tool actually draws enough people in.

I can easily argue that they remain for archival purposes and easy for those still using the card. As of right now, the section still has some current use. Verses creating an entire new section with the gamble that something might happen. Looking back when DSi hacking was new there wasn't much interest in it then, then it's safe to assume there might not be much interest in it now.
If there's not a high enough demand, then there's no reason to create section until it proves itself to be a stable community.
