    Homebrew Shall I hack my 7.1.0 O3DS? Interesting homebrew?

    I've just stumbled upon my old O3DS gathering dust in some drawer and it seems it's on firmware 7.1.0-16E, so vulnerable to Browserhax + Menuhax/Themehax. I understand that a 3DS hacked this way cannot run: - 3DS ROMs - 3DS eShop games - 3DS virtual console games - DS/GBA ROMs - DS homebrew...

    Hardware Loose stylus - falls out of 3DS. How to fix?

    Just a few months after buying, the stylus of my 3DS started to fall out of it. I guess the socket became too loose. Anyone knows of any magic trick to fix it? Thanks!

    Gaming A few questions on Mario Kart

    I'm considering buying Mario Kart... could you be so kind and answer these questions of mine? 1. How many tracks are there? 2. Are these flying/underwater sequences (as seen in the trailer) normal parts of tracks that everyone drives through each lap, or do you have to do something...

    Gaming Few questions on 3DS' video format

    Hi, 1. Has anyone tried playing a video file with framerate higher than 20 fps? Does it simply crash / not show up in the menu? 2. What might be the FFMPEG commandline syntax for converting simple, 2D movie into 3DS' format ? I'd like to convert a standard 16:9 XviD... all the batch files I've...

    Hardware SD interface really slow ?

    Isn't it a bit strange that all the operations involving reading/writing to SD card seem to be really slow ? E.g. 3DS startup time is already quite long, and even after the main menu shows up, you still have to wait a second or two until icons for downloaded titles appear... The same for...

    Gaming What exactly do you have to do to become the "ambassador" ?

    I'm a little confused as to what exactly do I have to do in order to receive these free games for early adopters... Is it enough if I just click the eShop icon and wait for it to load ? And maybe download some free videos/games ? I got Pokedex, but I haven't downloaded any paid content yet. Or...

    Gaming Any dedicated 3DS games on the eShop ?

    Apart from 3D classics, are there any dedicated 3DS games on the eShop ? All the DSiWare games were originally made for DSi, so they do not take advantage of 3DS' hardware. Plus, DSi games have to be upsampled from DS/DSi resolution introducing some blur, which kinda defeats the purpose of...

    Gaming MGS disappointing ?

    I wanted to buy MGS as soon as I saw screenshots and videos from the "Naked sample" tech demo. But now, after they've decided to simply port the PS2 version and especially after seeing the awful eShop, I'm not so sure. I've played one of the earliest MGS'es - don't remember the exact name, one...

    Hardware Impressions on 3D trailers

    The quality of these downloadable videos is much better than streaming trailers in eShop. You can barely see any compression artifacts ! As for games themselves, all of them seem to be must-haves... RE for its fantastic graphics and being a true survival horror. Starfox is bound to give one of...

    Gaming One Piece Unlimited Cruise SP - ???

    I've looked briefly at screenshots and one teaser of this game, and I honestly cannot figure out what genre is this... Is it hack'n'slash similar to Samurai Warriors, but with manga cartoonish graphics ? PS. Apparently this game has already been released in Japan...

    Hardware What does SpotPass do ?

    I get StreetPass, but what does SpotPass really do ? Does it continuously try to connect to open unsecured WiFi networks and download stuff ? But why, if it could simply use my home network ? Or does it just record SSIDs of WiFi spots I'm passing by in order to reward me with content (similar...

    Gaming What's this eShop country/region nonsense ?

    Why the hell Nintendo is releasing different content in US and EU ? I would understand they might have some licensing issues for games, but for game trailers ??? I thought that from marketing point of view, it's the best to reach as many potential customers as it's possible. So why aren't they...

    Hardware Connecting to open WiFi automatically ?

    Hi, Let's say I arrive at an airport with free, open WiFi. Will 3DS connect to this network automatically, or do I have to manually detect available networks, create new connection etc. ? Thanks.

    Gaming Internet Browser impressions

    I've already seen some negative impressions on the browser, but sincerely, I think it's pretty fine. Granted, it might be a bit slow, doesn't support YouTube and has to render incrementally, but major sites (Gmail, Facebook, Digg, GBAtemp...) seem to work. Zooming is smooth. Also, it does seem...

    Gaming eShop not working in Europe ?

    Tried a few times after updating 3DS. It either returns error 007-25 (if I remember correctly) or says that eShop is under maintenance. Internet Browser works fine (no problems posting to Facebook). Anyone managed to access eShop in Europe ?

    Hardware Why no antialiasing ?

    3DS' screen is quite low resolution and it could really use some antialiasing. And despite AA is listed as one of Pica200's features, it seems that no game is using it at the moment. 2xFSAA (Full Screen Antialiasing) basically forces hardware to render 4 times as many pixels as normally. I...

    Gaming Dead or Alive: Dimensions ?

    I've never played any Dead or Alive game. So, apart from bouncing tits and legs in stockings, does the game differ much from e.g. Street Fighter ? For me, all the fighting games are very similar... sure, they might have different combos/fatalities/whatever, but basic mechanics are identical...
