Bah in my day my parents were rather strict about what I could play...

I don't think that's needed. For anyone with Wifi they can simply block the device from connecting to the internet by putting the MAC adress on a block list of the router/modem's MAC filter. No internet = no firmware updates.PopSmith said:I could see someone making a WiiScrubber-style program that can edit 3DS files (like the Wii ISOs) and release groups would just remove updates before releasing the games. No more accidental updates for pirates. Every access point within my Wireless-N card's reach is passworded so randomly connecting to open Wi-Fi won't be a problem at home for me.
If the automatic updates via the Internet can't be disabled then someone will (eventually) come up with custom firmware that, at the very least, has the automatic update portion removed or disabled.
That could change when they have a device capable of some things they couldn't add to firmware before.tulio150 said:At least my wifi have a whitelist for the MACs of my pcs and my DS
Everyone should do that, otherwise the AP is public =)
macs can be spoofed very easily.

Can I just don't give my WEP key to the 3DS so that it can't go online? Surely the 3ds won't hack into it?Kamika said:I don't think that's needed.

I think if you say 'no', the 3DS will shut off by itself and when you on it again it will ask you to accept it again...Mbmax said:They can't update automatically the 3DS without any permission of the end user (EULA).
Just say NO to the new EULA, it won't update.
Yeah,,,...chris888222 said:I think if you say 'no', the 3DS will shut off by itself and when you on it again it will ask you to accept it again...Mbmax said:They can't update automatically the 3DS without any permission of the end user (EULA).

Assuming if the EULA is shown on the 3DS when asking for your details like fav colour...
