Stop trying to make it look like a sky3ds vs gateway thing, it's not. Calling gateway out on their bullshit has nothing to do with sky3ds.


Yeh but I prefer it when the Sky dudes don't try and talk shit like that random dude with the bowser pick did, ah well its whatever

People are referring to emails.
Yes, Sony and Ga(r)y may be full of shit, but Gateway has replied to emails such as "Will my kids play their Gateway before they go to school?" And they replied yes.
Maybe the meant normal 3DS. Who knows, but if that's the case then they delivered. If that's true, then they never lied.

in the "school kid" email someone asked if his/her kid could play with his 3ds before the 7.1. (? something like that), because that was the date when school started.. they replied with yes.. and the exploit arrived some days later.. so yea they lied in fact even regarding the 3ds exploit (though it were just some days) ^^

except the email with the kid was a fake, but i dont really think so

edit: i´m not sure about the exact words, but the way i wrote it know, they didn´t lie - he could play with his 3ds, though he just could not use gateway :P

They might have said it, but they didn't shown any proof that it could be blocked without affecting people using retail carts so for now, we can assume it's not.

Be sure that Nintendo would already have blocked it if they knew how (did you see how fast they blocked Ninjhax? they also blocked Gateway in 9.3+)
Blocking is pretty easy, but completely futile.

Nintendo could easily release a new blacklist update to block every single header on Sky3DS template tomorrow, rendering every game inoperable. But then Sky can release a brand new template the next day and Nintendo would be back to square one, on top of that they would have also blocked all circulating cards in the used games market with those headers.

So, can you block it, YES, but can you really block it, NO. Nintendo knows this.

They delayed by 1 day. Give them a break.

I don't see how people took it so serious, if there's one thing you learn from deadlines and gateway - it's that there are none, or time estimates.

One thing you should've learned from garyopa and sonyusa by now is that they're both very fond of satire comedy and exercise it regularly.

However take this with a bag of rocks and just assume it's soon™ again.

Also my prediction was in the old thread, 25th of Februrary, if it turns out I was right all along then I am just clearly the king of all predictions and I'll go ahead and put the lottery on too.

Will Gateway announce support for the New 3DS this week? Anyone bet?

I'm hoping it will be by the end of this week. I just see it as everyday that goes by without any promise of support, I'm seeing a lot of lost revenue (myself included) by buying something like Sky over GW...

    Hello
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I like being immature.

    Let be immature online ffs.
