Small question, except downloading content from Nintendo servers (and avoid someone to dump the whole game for example), what is the point? It is still a classic CIA, right?

Anyway, it is still good if it allows to download content directly from Nintendon't. (Even if I'm still unsure about the real use of this script :P)

Would this error be associated with the custom titles I've installed? I just want to be sure I'm not experiencing any issues requiring troubleshooting.

Custom titles means they aren't Official. So yeah. Makes sense that it can't get something for titles that don't exist on the eshop.

Yeah, I complete agree with this. What will happen when Nintendo takes down the servers? :/ This is why I believe in the users right to backup copies of games they purchase. DRM and non-physical based copies only hurts the users!

You can still add Nintendo DSi Points until September 30th 2016 and purchase content in the Nintendo DSi Shop until March 31st 2017. Please be aware that the ability to re-download Nintendo DSiWare games will stop at some point.

funny how many people had their own little scripts like this....i too made a batch script (yeah mine was probably very nooby crap poop) based on @Relys 's code that outputted either a .3ds or .cia depending on user preference, but i decided everyone and their nan hammering CDN would probably not be very nice for nintendo :P

yes imagine tens of thousands of pirates downloading mh4u from cdn... lol
i guess it's too late for nintendo to do something about, but they shouldn't really let us access the files that simply. but at the very least, their server would see where the request is coming from, as in, it's firefox and not the 3ds.
if we have fast interent, we get good speeds from cdn, but also good speeds from file hosters.
if we have bad internet, we get slow speeds from cdn, but also slow speeds from file hosters.
it doesn't make much difference to the end user.
mega is faster than nintendo's cdns anyway i think ;)

honestly i think another tool will just confuse people, nothing new over previuos tools, still python...
but people can do what they want, it's the noobs that follow

Keep in mind this is only for eShop titles and you still need to decrypt some files using Decrypt9 on your 3DS after downloading them before you can make a CIA or 3DS file out of them.

In short:
  1. Run script with Title ID and Title Key.
  2. Copy downloaded DEC files to D9Game folder on 3DS.
  3. Decrypt DEC files on 3DS.
  4. Copy decrypted DEC files back to PC, overwriting encrypted ones.
  5. Resume script to get CIA and/or 3DS file.
If you need the CIA patched for region free or crypto fixed this will not do that.

And this is why simple CIA is helluva allot better.
