IIRC, the major cfw people are waiting for (atmosphere) will support both version faking and pirating, although that would need confirmation from SciresMIm pretty sure smash is getting released this year(in fact nintendo have confirmed it), its a definite showing at E3. CFW on 4.1 might mean homebrew, but I wouldn't expect to be pirating games on 4.1 for at least another couple of years, if thats what your holding up for.
SciresM has only said he won't be going out of his way to block piracy. He certainly won't be explicitly allowing it though.IIRC, the major cfw people are waiting for (atmosphere) will support both version faking and pirating, although that would need confirmation from SciresM
He also said he'd be implementing ways to load homebrew off the home menu, and unless he goes super out of his way to create a whole new method of loading apps, the ability to install homebrew = the ability to install real games. A CFW without the ability to load custom titles is really quite pointless if i'm being honest. Still, we'd have to ask SciresM himself for confirmation either way.SciresM has only said he won't be going out of his way to block piracy. He certainly won't be explicitly allowing it though.
I'm not sure if that's the case or not. I would assume a backup loader will be required for piracy.the ability to install homebrew = the ability to install real games
Henkaku wouldn't be much use without vitashell so there needs to be at least some sort of file manager.It’s pretty much going to be like HENkaku or Haxchi in that the purpose is to run unsigned code. The devs don’t really care what people do with it from there.
no difference if you have a game that has 4.1 go ahead but sont go past 4.1Is there any downside to being 4.0.1 over 4.1.0?
Whichever one is the newest at the time. If CFW supports the latest firmware, I'll use the CFW, If TX's effort is the only one that supports the latest firmware, I'll grudingly go with that. I'd rather support the community solution, but it depends what works with what I have.
from your list of systems, you seem to have plenty of time for researching, hacking, setup and maintenance, installing a ridiculous surplus of ram on a tiny board. could squeeze some time in there to play those super short and not so very wothwhile games (at least bayonetta 1 felt like a waste of time)
