    I think he’s just referring to the release of Smash Bros. for Wii U, which is in about a week.

    • Archaemic says:

      He said on twitter that he doesn’t have a Wii U. He also said that he has finals in a week, so he might just be talking about the semester.

    I wait so hard for that !!!!

    I just preordered a New Nintendo 3ds from Autralia 🙂 Great Timing 🙂

    • Ashton says:

      Actually Sky3ds is compatible with newest firmware. Gateway announced they’re gonna do the same, and to be honest gateways emunand is awesome. Then there’s leaked cfw which although probably buggy seems to work (though it requires old fw).

      Current gateway 3ds allows to install cia files on sd etc.. Honestly the only thing scene lacks atm is good homebrew.

      • The Z says:

        The 3DS CFW is to be updated to support FW 9.x, when they can RE the flash cards kxploit.

        • Anon says:

          Do they even have kexploit to RE in the first place? That thing imitates real 3DS cart of your region, so I highly doubt they have a kernel exploit. GW team will most likely reverse engineer and implement it in their cart (assuming they aren’t the same guys rebranded), but I don’t think CFW will benefit from this in any way.
          smealum’s exploit, on another hand…

    So duke nukem forever gets released when no body really cares about it anymore ?

    i can’t wait for smealum to back out again and have idiots stroke him off some more

    Only thing the 3DS has is a 3DNES Emulator. Only thing I can Emulate on the DS Side is NeoDS, PicoDrive, a SNES Emu and GB/GBC. Would be amazing if they were to be able to get a Doom3DS going. Would be amazing seeing it in 3D with HD Graphics…BrutalDoom 😀
    But actually, once the New 3DS comes out for the other Regions, it will be a much better System for Emulators since it has 4 Trigger Buttons, A, B, X, Y, Start, Select, and 2 Directional Joysticks with the Digital Buttons along with the Touch Screen for System Input.
    But would just need more Emulators and Homebrew for it in order to see what it is capable of. So far, I think the Vita for now might have it beat though. But the 3DS can take a 128GB SD Card and if you have the Gateway Card, that is an additional 128 Micro SD Storage Space added to that for more Homebrew/Emulation. I once read that the Vita might get a 128GB Vita Card, but they would need to lower the cost in order to have people getting them.

    “Smealum wanted to CONFIRL his exploit would run fine on the new device.” Typo

    i just want to kill this stupid region lock 😮

    and there was another thing what i wanted to do, but i forgot it 😮 (i really forgot it ^^)

    • Diag says:

      ah yes a cheat/quick save tool would be awesome, i don´t know if this was what i forgot, but this would be definitely come in handy

      • Smoker1 says:

        They do have that for the 3DS

        Does not work for those with a Gateway or other Piracy Device. Requires the Physical Game Card. But yeah, it would be great to have it natively in the 3DS. Dont know what happened. These days, Game Devs try and make sure there are no Codes or Cheats in their Games. Used to be great back in the day. Enter a Code and you have Unlimited Lives or Unlimited Firepower.

    I honestly think Smealum should wait until the New 3DS is available in the west before releasing this.

    who gives a damn about 3DS?

  11. Byte says:

    “than a DRM protected piracy solution (which to me ruins the whole point of being a tinkering hobbyist in the first place). ”

    Nothing has stopped/is stopping anyone from downloading the GW software for free from their website and reversing it, then releasing an open sourced version (perhaps even using an alias and some McDonald’s free WiFi access point) and let the community work from there. Smea had an emuNAND working (called “red nand”) without the GW flashcart.

    And we should give a damn about the 3DS, as it shows how far behind the VITA scene is (in terms of *native* VITA hacking; it’s at the same level of the Wii-U. I have multiple PSPs and Go so that’s fine for the built-in PSP emulation sandbox stuff).

    So does this mean I can update to the latest FW and still be able to use this exploit?

  13. The Z says:

    I just need the files : P

    Let’s see if he’s not delaying this release AGAIN.
