I think the log would be somewhat useful, but if the DSLite and the DSi can read a flashcart header as a completely different game, then wouldn't the 3DS log it as that game it's pretending to be rather than the actual flashcart? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Wouldn't it be somewhat obvious even if this was true ....most of the headers that are used are kinda terrible games.,and if you see someones log spending 500+ hours on say....my cooking coach......wouldn't you be just a little suspicious

I like this. I mean, I use my flashcarts all the time, and because of that I'm keeping my DSi, but it's admirable how Nintendo is going to such lengths without ruining the experiences of those who don't hack the 3DS like a certain other company.

You're talking about Sega, right? Right?

You do have a point. I did not think of that.

A better example would be remotely bricking your DVD player because they didn't want you watching a home-made porn DVD on it.

You didn't buy that DVD and it's not using CSS encryption, so do they have the right to break your TV?

Hell no.

Except home-made porn (provided it meets the specifications...) isn't illegal, pirating games is.

Personally I think as a pirate you accept the risks of obtaining items illegally, such as retaliation from companies to prevent your piracy, and think Nintendo would be in the right for bricking your system if you're pirating on it. I wouldn't be happy, but it'd accept that it's my fault for not being more careful.

Although odds are if I get a 3DS (which won't be any time soon), I'd go legit with it. Just feels better to go legit unless piracy on it becomes as easy as it was on the DS.

Same opinion here, i'll go legit on it as long as it doesn't become as easy as the DS. I might just go legit simply because the filesize of the roms are too large. That's the main reason I don't pirate Wii ISOs.

But i'm getting my 3DS launch day though

Except of course, there's no way for Nintendo to prove you're not just the worlds biggest fan of My Cooking Coach.

What the teams should have done from the start is set the header to Dragon Quest IX. That game has enough legit players with 500 hours logged that anyone at Nintendo looking at your 3DS log would be unable to tell who's a legit player and who's playing Final Fantasy Adventure on Lameboy.

Are you kidding me? If this bullshit was true, it would be worse than anything that Sony did on these last months. Bricking a console remotely is ridiculous, no matter how you look at it.

Miyamoto didn't create the 3DS, nor is he the President, CEO, or key decision maker of Nintendo.
