3DS games: is it safe to assume there are no fake cartridges out there (bootleg games)? Supposedly 3ds roms have been dumped, what's stopping someone from loading them onto a cartridge?
I think they're currently in the making. Not sure if they are on the market yet, but they certainly are in the works.3DS games: is it safe to assume there are no fake cartridges out there? Supposedly 3ds roms have been dumped, what's stopping someone from loading them onto a cartridge?
Flashcards we have these days don't support the emulation of 3DS roms, but only DS roms.
That's annoying... anyway, why I'm asking is because I see this for cheap http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006Y76HY6/We have seen videos of bootlegs already.
I was assuming you said flashcards since you were talking about cartridges like R4s, Acekards, DS2sI didn't say flashcards...
Nope, bootleg games.I was assuming you said flashcards since you were talking about cartridges like R4s, Acekards, DS2s
Nothing, just the risk of getting a 1:1 fake copy when you buy 3DS games off ebay. The region locking is software based so this is strictly for piracy, you can't even load different games on the same cart or anything and obviously no homebrew either.Wait, what would this accomplish for us?
So you're happy to buy a dodgy inferior product that has more chances to not work properly rather than something that is covered by a warranty if something happens with it?Why should I care if I own a bootleg?
If it works then I dont care.So you're happy to buy a dodgy inferior product that has more chances to not work properly rather than something that is covered by a warranty if something happens with it?
Yeah, see, the problem occurs when they don't work, or fail early, or lack features, etc.If it works then I dont care.
No. It needs to be hacked to load ROMs (as in, more than one and not from a game cart) and run homebrew.wait, i thought that we need to hack the 3DS first before we can make a bootleg??
now this is confusing O.O

I once bought Lunar for the GBA on eBay (no box/instructions). I could tell right away that it was a bootleg because the label looked poor quality and game saves only worked for about a week after I bought it. Best thing to do is stick to boxed pre-owned or new because it will be easier to spot a fake.Yeah, see, the problem occurs when they don't work, or fail early, or lack features, etc.
Well, would you rather pay close to the same amount of money for a knock-off and not only that but support thieves instead of supporting the devs?If it works then I dont care.
