Inb4 close but im sure everyone is thinking this....

Does the game have to be "legit"

 

[Abcdfv]

I heard it's a Spongebob game, not sure which one. THAT IS JUST HEARSAY, I DO NOT KNOW.

I guess the big question is, after getting the game and using the exploit, will we have a way to update the firmware like gateway users can? Because it would kinda suck if you have to stay at the same firmware forever in order to use this.

Hope its Steel Diver or some other cheap game

It's not a spongebob game. Only one of the two 3DS spongebob games works on 4.X, and it isn't on any eShop. Also the price is a bit low.

 

[Warft]

I'll bet that is Shinobi.

I'm pretty sure only people with 7.0+ should need to use a cartridge 4.0-6.3 have the ds profile exploit so maybe it is spongebob who knows.

Slightly off topic, but what does SSSpwn mean/stand for? I can guess on the "pwn" but the SSS?

 

[Rizzorules]

I hope it is super street fighter

 

[manlego]

Well it isnt Steel Diver, Spongebob or Shinobi because all of them arent on the eshop.

 

[EverCoo]

It could be crosswords plus, or some other dirt cheap 3ds game

 

[endoverend]

Maybe there's a game that stands for "SSS"...

Super Street Sighter!

Super Street Sighter!

Hope you are right.

 

[Rizzorules]

Hope you are right.

Yeah, me too

 

[manlego]

I am trying to find 3ds games that fits "SSS", and the closest one is Super Smash Bros. 3DS.
Guess we are taking the wrong path then...
Wait what i am saying, it doesnt even have a third S, i am really tired...

How did I know someone would make this thread . Personally we should just wait for him to say its name but for those of you who are impatient, I'll point you in the right direction. Because I knew this was coming, I've already found all 130 games released on the eshop AND retail in North America. Considering Smea previously said the exploit works with 4.1 - 4.5, I've narrowed the list to every dirt cheap game $12 and under that released before March 2013 (the launch of the 5.0 update). This obviously doesn't guarantee one of the games is the required one as games released post march 2013 can still have update partitions sub 4.5 but lets assume a standard deviation of about 3 months so every game released after June 2013 is automatically eliminated. "I've narrowed it to about 15 games.

EDIT: This does not include games they were originally over $12 and then fell in price over time such as street fighter.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it was a lego game, like Lego Harry Potter or something (and my brother has Lego Harry Potter! PLEASE let it be that one, Smea!)

 

[NyaakoXD]

He bought four copies of the same game for about $30. The game could range from $5.99-$9.99

 

[endoverend]

Or he meant he bought 4 used, discounted retail copies of the game for 30$.

Anyway, it's ridiculous that there's a new thread for every one of smealum's tweets. It's amazing how much GBAtemp users can read into 140 characters.

Just close the thread, it's not worth keeping open.
