The thing is, if you follow 3dsbrew site info, they have mentioned that from 9.3 onwards there is some 2nd stage ROP that is blocked (it was the GPU buffer something), it is also present on N3DS till 9.2 but since the browser in it is not the same one as old 3DS so the entrypoint should be something else.

Also I see from previous posts that there is confusion as to why old 3DS has emuNAND support for 9.5 while N3DS doesn't it is due to the fact that 9.5 on N3DS is using new encryption keys which old 3DS doesn't (if you remember few months back old 3DS has exactly same issue when on firmware 7.x, people thought it was the end but GW were able to bypass those new encryption keys after some time). However I think the delays by GW is due to their resumed work on 9.5 emuNAND support for N3DS after yellow8 decrypted the arm kernel keys due to bugs in 9.5...

All I'm saying is I agree with waiting until NA release and would have been quite surprised if they released the exploit prior to NA release.
I just can't picture a business confronted with a possible NA capability yelling "YOLO" and releasing earlier than the NA release.


Still making zero sense

how would gateway releasing the update before NA release effect anything?

And from a business stand point they are shooting themselves in the foot, while everyone goes and buys a working sky card.

Yesterday Gary said that the GW team will make an announcement SOON (S O O N!), any news about it?

Also, am I the only one who think that an annoucenement isn't a big news, because if they were close to release the update, they would just release it, not need to make a special announcement, a special announcement can only be to tell us "well, about the N3DS support, hum, mhhhh well... We're working on it, buuuuuut..." etc! xD I'm not feeling that good about it. ^^" But I still have hope, they'll find a way, I'm sure of it. ^^

He said soon... and then said might have news by end of Feb.

Not looking promising.

And I agree.. We don't need another announcement just to lead up to another announcement. Just admit support isn't coming, then we will all be happy.


Just remembered an email they sent me in December. I asked them if it was safe to order a gateway card now. And they responded. "Update will be out before you get it!"

If they released the exploit earlier, Nintendo would have been confident in their "fix" and implemented greater efforts to have a higher sysnand on release.
As the exploit wasn't released, Nintendo couldn't invest any time/money to guarantee a secure sysnand within NA on release. (Since there's no guarantee what/if any of their sysnand versions secure it.)

That's not true.

    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.
