Does not existI do know such thing as Luma3DS exists, but I am not talking about the overlay CFW. I am talking about replacing the 3DS's firmware with an open-source one.
That's an enormous job, but it has been completed for some system modules though.I do know such thing as Luma3DS exists, but I am not talking about the overlay CFW. I am talking about replacing the 3DS's firmware with an open-source one.
Well the 300 title limit is bullshit, the gift-wrapping of new apps is unnecessary bullshit, and I feel like the entire 3DS "home screen menu" could just be replaced with a no-frills text menu, maybe with touch controls on the bottom screen.Is there something you would hope to do with such firmware that you wouldn't be able to do otherwise?

That's still just a band-aid, not a full solution. Kind of like adding an SD card to the Wii for more channel space, instead of having infinite channel space using UNEED/SNEEK.To get around the 300 limit we have 3dsbank
While I agree with you can't you just like install less games? Surely you don't play all 300.That's still just a band-aid, not a full solution. Kind of like adding an SD card to the Wii for more channel space, instead of having infinite channel space using UNEED/SNEEK.
At that point you'd simply be ignoring the problem.While I agree with you can't you just like install less games? Surely you don't play all 300.
Yeah, the problem that people are addicted to installing games and not playing themAt that point you'd simply be ignoring the problem.
No, the problem is the title limit. Blame the software, not the user.Yeah, the problem that people are addicted to installing games and not playing them
Exactly, artificial limitations set by the OS are just not needed.No, the problem is the title limit. Blame the software, not the user.
Bruh I can’t even name 300 titles. I can’t imagine how long your Home Screen takes to load that data off the 3DS SD BusNo, the problem is the title limit. Blame the software, not the user.
Not so "in the know" about these things but what are the uses of these tools?That's an enormous job, but it has been completed for some system modules though.

A complete rewrite of the firmware almost certainly will never happen.

im pretty sure "3DS WITH TOP 300 GAMES " still makes a fairly complelling listing for anyone into that sort of thing (mostly clueless parents)Many of such people are looking for a way to install hundreds of games to sell the console "full of games", they don't care about playing them all.
I don't know what you mean. VC GBA injects aren't really "emulation"; it executes the ARM code natively on the 3DS CPU. And it's more compatible than GBARunner2, isn't it? Even if it's not more compatible than mGBA, it's certainly faster.the agb firm loads gba roms without home menu, but still uses nintendo's emulator that isn't compatible with most games like homebrew emulators are.
Aye, I'm not clear on that either.I have no clue what 3ds pxi means or what patching arm11 does.
Those are just open source re-implementations of select system modules (and agb firm) that add a few features over their stock versions. Their readmes will have more details on what those features are. Maybe.Not so "in the know" about these things but what are the uses of these tools?
The context of the... documentation is a bit confusing. Injector suggest system patches like region free games that CFW like luma does already. the agb firm loads gba roms without home menu, but still uses nintendo's emulator that isn't compatible with most games like homebrew emulators are. I have no clue what 3ds pxi means or what patching arm11 does. Amiibo emulator is interesting, especially for 3DS systems without nfc amiibo support.
Pardon my lack of understanding, I just would like to better understand. One useful thing I can think of right now is booting directly into NDS carts with power on.
