Nintendo 3DS smuggled off a Chinese assembly line

[Zeroneo]

Did everyone noticed something odd on the pic that has all the consoles powered on

Spoiler

?
Look closely to the red dsi, it says ique dsi?

Did that chinese hacked a dsi??

This has been asked already. iQue DS is just the Chinese name for the Nintendo DS.

No vid yet of this thing in menu or running a game. I'm guessing this guy can't get it working.

As has been said multiple times in this topic: It likely doesn't have any firmware flashed to it yet.

It has a firmware, and it appears to be a dev or debug system installed on it. It just appears to not have the retail firmware (who knows, maybe its installed and is accessible via the menu, doubt it, but its possible). Speculation mixed with general ignorance is fun!

Hey, I know the Situation in Greece is bad and we have to give you multi billion of Dollars because you Guys didn't pay Taxes for many many...NEVER! But hey, don't give up to have at least a little bit humor, that makes life a bit more tolerable!

 

[Mid123]

yeah because the greek crisis was caused by people not paying their taxes

Chinese?

I hope there will be a low-priced edition of 3DS

lol Sony would definitely get their hands of that piece of meat. They'll need something better to battle 3DS; a higher spec handheld device perhaps. Still, i'll get my hands dirty this year to have my 3DS

There's a video of him going onto the actual 3DS boot screen.
He pressed start i think.

Why do they have Mario's face blurred out?

Why do they have Mario's face blurred out?

Copyright reasons.

 

[Crass]

The IQue line is officially licensed from Nintendo, there really was no reason to blur his face. I didn't think China is too strict with copyright law either.

Quick edit: Just realized the photograph was taken from Wikipedia, probably some idiot Wikipedian thought it violated copyright law when they uploaded that photo, but it does, its protected under fair use.

 

[Stevetry]

um no. flash cards are way more common in china. if u were chinese and lived in china and loved nintendo ds and u were chinese from china and u had every nintendo ds sytem they came out with and u were chinese you would have a flash card if u lived in china.

you can buy them in stores in china. everyone has them.

this guy was chinese and he was from china so he went to the store near his house and bought a flash card. he probably had 10 stores to pick from near his house that sold 10 different brands of flash cards each. THIS IS CHINA!!! HE WAS CHINESE!!!! flash cards are everywhere in china. chinese people can buy them everywhere in china. they are easy to get because they sell them everywhere so chinese people can buy them in china

YOU ARE ALL STUPID because u think crazy things that arent true because of the flash cart in the video. CHINESE PEOPLE IN CHINA CAN GET ALL THE FLASH CARDS THEY WANTT!!!!! THEY SELL THEM IN STORES THERE!!!!!!!

IF YO GRANDMA WAS A CHINESE FROM CHINA SHE WOULD PROBABLY HAVE FLASH CARDS. thats just how easy they are to get in china IF YOU ARE CHINESE.
