    Pretty sure I saw someone in the other thread install New Super Mario Bros. 2 on their 3DS. They posted a picture of the app. Either way I wouldn't do it. If you have a corrupted CIA or something goes wrong, you could brick your 3DS. I'd wait for CFW.

    I believe installing to the SD card is super safe, it's the NAND you have to worry about.
    At least that's what i heard before.

    How so? You can just take the SD card out and your 3ds works fine if something really goes wrong with the install. It isn't touching NAND

    Some people were able to install some legit CIAs, I'm thinking of trying it.

    Because this isn't something that is even a proper release. Literally anything can go wrong.


    I was going to try to as well but it isn't worth risking my Majora's Mask New 3DS.

    Good luck though.

    There's a title database in the sysNAND that determines what apps show in the home menu, FBI has to write in this.

    Anyways, I got to install CIAs just fine, as long as you don't touch anything else and just install CIAs on your SD, everything should be fine.

    Waiting for something that will never happen?

    Seriously, a 16 year old posts hype-bait since October, and his single release is source code for a menu that didn't even compile. When has anyone without prior releases and credibility ever lived up to their promises when they've got no evidence of having any real work? All he's done is back-pedal on snshax "lol no point now guys XXDD" and then on KTM "lol it was nevr meant to be anything other than a menu lol XDD I totally didn't hype it up or anything please keep boosting my ego".

    Okay i read all of these posts.
    I will not mess with the internals with the system just for a unusable downgrade. (No cfw stuff)
    I will wait for this "Kernel time machine" and memchunkhax2's offical re
    Thats what i am going to do.

    FBI doesn't "write to it" it calls the system functions that write to it... Though point is taken on that one

    Even with ninjhax or oothax? Isn't that what they were used for? I don't understand.

    I don't understand the worries of some peoples here about JustPingo was not delivered his KTM yet. I believe there is no way to release it without a properly finished, stable and fully working memchunkhax2.

    Is there anyone here who downgraded and has CN? Could you try NTR please?

    I've been on 9.2 this whole time so I have no real investment in this, just wanting to know if it works
