Nintendo 3DS Does Block Flashcarts

Oh well, I'll buy the games that REALLY need buying (COME ON, PROF LAYTON X PHOENIX...GET TRANSLATED~!)...Other than that, a flashcart will be nice :D

yeah especially since each game is like 2 gigs

well the r4i works with the 3ds now which sucks lets hope nintendo stops them soon

one of the R4i carts does. There's quite a few different R4i carts. Personally I was hoping R4 named cards would never become compatible because they're a bitch to support due to the hundreds of different fakes.

Sorry, I was a bit mad with somebody else while writing that, and loony's posts came precisely while I had finished talking to them.What I meant is: Sony released the PSP to compete with the DS. The DS has sold over 135 million systems worldwide, while the PSP has sold 62 million. Its mission was to compete with the DS. It failed. And pretty badly at that.Now, the Virtual Boy and CDi... those weren't just failures, those were outright mistakes. Or from a more commercial standpoint, gigantic flops.

What? R4i already (kinda) hacked it? I hope this would be the case for the NGP!

test the ttdsi iplayer and ex4i for me (i will be testing them all as soon as i get a 4ds tho)

Da FallenNintendo can only delay pirates.When spyro 3 for the ps1 came out, they knew if they did anything that would surly stop pirate, it would affect the game and load times, so they aimed at a perfect stop block, one that a hacker can see and affect, the other only the ones using the roms will see given the nature of hackers rushing around without checking more than game boot.Before it got cracked, they sold thousands of copies, most of those from pirate who just couldn't wait...Patience, shall be rewarded, as for me, I'll be buying the games I love for a very long time...but I'll wait until the 3ds lite comes out, that way i can just buy my games cheap :D

nintendo said that a remake (such as a 3ds lite) is unlikely but mabey they will do a battery upgrade?

I don't think so.
R4i is still working on 3DS.
Here's the proof.

Da FallenPft, I expected this already.No offence, it'd be dumb for flash carts to be working on a new device.

The thread was made before the flashcarts were able to function on the 3DS.

So my Acekard2i WILL work on the 3DS? If so, I'll trade in my XL and take advantage of GAME's offer to get a 3DS. I won't need to do some crazy update or modding, will I?

yes.

in all fairness this is a bit of a no s*** sherlock we heard about this shortly after it was announced and anyway at 2gb a game you cant realy pirate the games unless you pay for loads of sd cards. (on a side note unless you have unlimited web you will go way over your limit as well).

this topic is kinda old. flashcarts already work on 3ds. and i dont if you heard but the psp has games that go to 1.7gb. and people manage to pirate it. there are sd cards of 32gb which is enough to store games. on my psp, ive had up to 80 games. and im guessing not all 3ds games will be 2gb. there were a few ds games that actually used up the whole retail cart memory

This is so true. 3DS today. im in england so was lucky. Went gamestation and he was given one for being an manager. They are so amazing.

Thats sad actually.My Original R4 doest support cards higher than 2 GB, and I don't believe that the Wood R4 will fix that.
Will need to buy a new one >_>

It's hardware that limits that. As well as being able to play on the DSi/3DS. No NDS flashcart will work on a DSi/3DS.
