>willingly hacking your 3ds so nintendo can ban you You're a few months too late.

What do I need to do if I have a new3ds xl at 11.4?
Jaxson Hernandez
>5 min portable hack solution You can literally set up a stand in some anime convention and charge $10 to hack them
Joseph Adams
Do you have an acekard or r4i gold rts?
Jack Kelly
Everything good came out before hacking really
Blake Johnson
I bought 3ds XL in 2013 and almost never used it, firmware was 4.20 something, can I install CFW without flashcart fuckery or do I need to buy some 3rd party shit?

Ayden Smith
The reason for the random bans has not been found out yet, you could get banned at any moment.
I didn't actually get banned either, but I'm not touching my 3DS until the reason for the bans has been figured out.
Mason Torres
Wait you can add a cfw to ds lite
Kevin Sanchez
True, but downloading hundreds if not thousands of dollars of games definitely helps the budget. The barrier to entry is absurdly low, it adds convenience, and there is very little risk.
I understand the morality of purchasing games, obviously, but pirating adds so much convenience that it's easy to understand why people do it, even with well paying jobs. Video games become an expense that you NEVER have to make, which allows you to allocate money elsewhere.
Brayden Hall
>if you install homebrew that means you only think about pirating games and nothing else! dumb wageslave poster.
Nathaniel Wright
literally its the smartest thing to do
every main DS/3DS title has tripled in value as times moves on, thanks to retards willing to pay though the nose for that shit
you'd have to be some kind of massive retard not to buy the physical games
Robert Butler
Stealing games is all people do with homebrew.
Nathaniel Stewart
bumping the question.
Chase Allen
Unpopular opinion on Sup Forums, but I'd rather support the devs and publishers, so that I don't have to rely on bad fantranslations for everything in the future.
Thomas Lewis
Why not both? There's literally no drawback in having hacked 3DS.
They haven't done any bans since that large wave months ago. If you get banned, who cares? Takes less than 10 minutes to unban yourself, and there's always a public code to replace any banned one.
Elijah Allen
Have had it hacked for over a year. Great for playing GBA games and demo'ing 3DS games that I might not have been interested in.
>homebrew >stealing games I don't think that word means what you think it means.
Chase Williams
Can I do it without buying anything at all, if I only have a japanese 3ds?
Hunter Turner
I overclock and emulate.
Grayson Lee
Is it worth it?
William James
Is there a solution for increasing your firmware version aside from having a cart with the proper firmware update now?
I went through the motions about a year ago and got as far as downgrading before realizing my SD was too small to finish, much less store any games to play. Now I'm stuck on whatever version the guide said at the time and can't find my Smash cart.
I'm only curious, can't hold a 3DS for more than a half hour with both hands anyway.
Isaiah Nelson
why aren't you just updating online? You don't even need to downgrade anymore anyway
Joshua Bell
Maybe. Yea. It's kind of scary and a pain in the ass, but you can get free games which is nice.
Lucas Garcia
I suppose I don't care enough to research. This was around the time Nintendo was trying to stay on pace with the exploiters and current firmware was a death sentence to them, so I didn't consider the official update an option.
Aside from DDD and Planet Robobot I couldn't give the slightest shit about CFW on that thing. Can't use the 3DS long enough to possibly play Monster Hunter, despite still using my PSP for everything it can handle.
Camden White
>Maybe. Depending on?
Lincoln Gray
I don't know. Apparently it's different for a Japanese 3ds, depending on firmware.
Robert Watson
>not even considering emulators or homebrew games/ports like Duke 3D and DOOM
c'mon man
Logan Rodriguez
>doesn't use homebrew >tells other people what it's used for
I hope for you that your job is McDonald's or a store or something, because if not, you're too old to be this ignorant
Christopher Stewart
Does it have to be an acekard?
Evan Williams
or a particular R4 variety magnethax is fresh out of the gates
Brayden Evans
>tfw have a job >tfw you buy 20x retail games every month >tfw you will never play any of it
Jaxson Perez
So any of the other cards are out of the question like SupercardDS2?
Alexander Russell
I don't know what that is.
Hunter Miller
if money isn't any issue, then the small return you'd get on physical copies after 10+ years wouldn't matter.
Adrian Rogers
For the time being at least.
Jace Robinson
Good for you, but I hope you never find out you want to play something outside your region or a game with a fan patch.
Luis Collins
what this user saidalso for me, I don't buy physical for handhelds anymore, except if it's a game I really like and am invested in personally. It's just a hassle and defeats the purpose of a handheld system imo. There's a reason things like mp3 players quickly killed of the CD player market.
Jose Jones
Glad I already soft-modded my 3ds then. >tfw have a job >tfw still pirate shit anyway ;)
Owen Howard
You'll probably want to install magnethax when it comes out anyway, it makes your console unbrickable.
Hudson Parker
I thought bs9+gm9 did that already?
Jaxon Jones
Hacked mine earlier this year and was stolen afterwards. Feels bad.
Hudson Green
I mean truly unbrickable. You could wipe the entire NAND and still recover with magnethax. Think a Pandora Battery.
Austin Myers
Oh shit, gotcha user.
Jack Roberts
This guy was already on Homebrew general on /vg/ i guess he just wanted to share the new magnethax. >
Henry Nguyen
What are the chances of that happening, though?
Daniel Bennett
I don't know how well documented the Supercard DSTwo's card commands are. Acekard 2i is the first one to support magnethax because its protocol is fully and freely documented.
Cameron Bailey
How particular?, i have a possibly more chinese pink r4.
It works on my modded 3ds and i know by experience it works in clean updated 3ds too.
Isaac Sullivan
Will this card work? The website says "dualcard +ak2i interface"
John Campbell
Can I play NDS games on hacked 3ds? Do I need a flashcart or will it work without it?
Nathaniel Walker
you need a flashcard. nds-bootstrap exists but has shit compatibility, audio glitches and stuttering so it's not worth it
Evan Taylor
Oh shit I have the gold one from the same chinks
Ethan Evans
Is there a chance compatibility will be improved in the future? Does backward compatibility sucks or is it software one specifically for hacked 3ds that sucks?
Evan Cox
>Download this file and put it on your Acekard 2i's SD card. Can I use my R4 instead? OG R4, not R4i, R4 Gold or all the other variations.
Carter Harris
Compatibility will be improved but it can't be perfect. The patches used to load from the SD card are extensive and complicated. A real game or a flashcard works perfectly fine, but just the 3DS's SD card is a glitchy minefield.
Nope, no updateable bootloader.
Brayden Murphy
Well, fuck. Can I use it to play DS games on a hacked 3DS through other means though? My DSlite is dying a painful death and I'm eyeing a 3DS in the next months.
Connor Gray
Your original R4 will work fine for playing DS games on a hacked 3DS. Must be hacked though.
Jason Foster
>have kept my n3ds at 11.3 for months with the intention of hacking it >still haven't done it because I'm too afraid of bricking it Why do I have to be such a pussy?
