Every year, CCC (32c3 this year), one of the more famous hacking conventions in the world, takes place in Hamburg, Germany. This event is especially notable to GBAtemp for it's groundbreaking talks on console security: the Wii, PS3, and Wii U are just some examples.

Now, famous 3ds hacker smea, and a couple of his no-less talented buddies are taking their places in history by attending the event to give a 1 hour lecture on the 3ds's security. The above image is a rundown from the CCC official site.

Is it going to be online after?
Video? I'm sure it will as that's the common practice with these talks.
Exploits? Nothing kernel-related will be released although they may demonstrate one and give details like Marcan and Comex did for the Wii U talk a couple years ago. Maybe there will be some clever new userland hax released, we'll just have to wait and see.

I meant video. And thanks. I probably should've clarified.

If it is like the Wii U talk by fail0verflow, it will be filled with outright lies, distortions, half truths, heavy obfuscations and glossing over the truly interesting parts. And then, you won't see them for three years.

The Chaos Communication Congress should be embarrassed by ANY talk where the topic of the talk cannot be duplicated(period).

And if a team is trying to fill time to run out the clock then as much time as needed should be allocated to get the job done. Otherwise, it is just simply embarrassing.

I doubt it will be anything like that, the kernel exploits and things covered in the talk is all public information at this point, the process of discovery is, at this point, not fully known it's more of a history lesson than anything else

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.
