quick question about the seeddb.bin (like, I have no idea where to ask this, and since seeds are on the mind...) since the titleid is reversed, is the seed also? i.g. Picross E6 titleid (for europe) is 000400000016E800, but it comes across as "00 E8 16 00 00 00 04 00" in the seeddb.bin (read from right to left) so, is the seed also like that

Heres a dumb question, but are there any differences between a .3ds file ripped from a cart converted to .cia opposed to a .cia straight from the eShop?

iirc, a cartridge convert is not protected by seed, because it can't be. but with cia, since they are constantly maintained in the eshop by ninty, they can be protected by anything.

I dont know what you mean by protected.

You can very easily rip a game from the cart and then convert to cia and install then play. but downloading thru cdn means there are some extra steps that may need to be taken depending on the game.

ok but I wanted to know the differences between the .cia files themselves, not the process of acquiring them.

oh, oops. no, not much besides one you can play right after installing and the other might take some steps. the seed is what is protecting us from getting to play sumo. once nintendo either releases, leaks, or someone else gets the seed we can play. sorry if i didn't answer ur question

I know about legit cia but I wanted to know any differences between cia from the eShop and ones converted from .3ds, no matter how small they may be. Thanks anyways.

Well someone posted a pic of their friend holding a sun case saying they got their physical copy now.

I saw this picture. It is most likely a fake.
You can simply print the cover and put it into the box of another game. tada..

No gamestore will have their copies in stock yet anyways.

 

[Astoria]

they uploaded the seed for the demo before it came out but i don't think they will upload the seed days early

They didn't upload it early. It was uploaded when the demo released in Japan. The same will happen for the final games.

Any idea when review copies go out? Thats the most likely time a leak will happen.

The Review copies of Sun are out since the demo came out, it even has a different title id then the final game.
00040000001A8900 is the Sun review copy,
note: the seed from that id does NOT work on the final game ^^.

Haven't seen it come in where I work. Maybe I can get it early. But, may lead to other bad stuff. Otherwise, gonna pre-load it soon.

Review copies aren't out yet, those were just early demos. If there were review copies then YouTube would be full of actually gameplay and not just demo gameplay.

Yeah, but remember, it can't full of gameplay because the reviewers are only able to show so much of the game.

Usually there's an hour+ of gameplay but there isn't any out yet so I expect review copies to be sent out next week or the week after.

some kid in that iso site uploaded a fake cia for pokemon sun heavy compressed to 322mb,after you unpack it it will become 3.2GB.
the kid got banned and thread got deleted.

remember,everything about a leak for the game before 2-3 days is fake.

nintendo won't risk sending early copies to the stores.

 

[cokacommando]

Hate to be that guy, but I remember hearing that Sun/Moon's production finishes today in China. Anyone have any idea how true that might be? I heard it from a friend of mine, and he tends to be credible about this kinda stuff.

Yeah, they don't want to repeat the mistake from X and Y...
