Homebrew Post Homebrew ideas, suggestion, requests here

[Flame060]

Are you talking about RPG Maker FES or something homebrew? I'd love to add some classic rpg maker 2003 games on my 3ds, and I haven't figured out how.

EasyRPG Player is a homebrew app for playing RPGmaker 2000/2003 games though it is fairly unstable.
Meanwhile all my favourites use RPGmaker MV it seems.

 

[Drvulcanlord]

There is a lightweight Linux game named "Endless sky" that I think would work well on the 3ds.

And for a troll request, "Can it run Crysis"

 

[raxadian]

Since checkpoint for 3DS is dead and some games don't work for it, it would be nice to have another tool to backup saves. I keep having problems with my micro SD cards so just making a backup of my saves would save (heh) me time.

So yeah that would be nice.

Edit: found one.

I would love a screen and game audio recording tool, it would make life so much easier for YouTubers who need good internet, a capture card, or a really good camera, plus you could just take the MP4 off the SD card, and that's it.

 

[Eddypikachu]

A randomizer hack for The Denpamen 3 would be amazing. Randomizer as in like the Ocarina of Time randomizer or other such rom hacks where the locations of items get put in random locations and you have to beat the game like that. The Denpamen 3 has items like the different key colors to unlock doors in the overworld, the right of 6 or 8 that increases party size, the ship parts, the orbs and idols to advance the story, etc, it'd be really fun looking traveling through all the overworld locations to find what you need

It could probably work if games were run in old3ds mode while using the new 3ds cpu and ram to record

 

[raxadian]

A Paper Mario 64 3ds port would be great since the decompilation is done.

 

[PigletTubeYT]

I personally would have like to see a good mp3/flac player which can scrobble music to last.fm and a GBA emulator would be pretty cool too so I don't have to buy a flashcard for my SP.



edit by Cyan:
Now that Ninjhax and Homebrew launcher is released, I renamed the thread from:
"Which homebrew apps would you like to see when smealum releases his exploit?"

Please use this thread to suggest, request (even if there's very little chance that a developer accept to do it) or troll impossible to do homebrew.

That thread will probably won't be a proper and respected place to request homebrew, but it will canalize all future requesting threads in a single place.
Please, don't create multiple threads for the same purpose. Thank you.

Before making a request or suggestion, you can find the existing homebrew and projects on our Wiki.

Cyan: I'm surprised nobody requested 3D animated boobs apps yet..., well we got the Fart one instead!

I want to see screen recording some apps use screen recording but It stops recording when it's closed I want the screen recording to be a background task and It could be a modification to the web browser and hold a key combo to start recording while opening the web browser and go back to home menu and do that again to stop recording.

What I want to see (but I know it will never happen) is:

- a system manager. Like the Wii. To change your region and downgrade/upgrade your firmware. (So we can go back to 4.5)


- Something like bootmii


- Eshop access in other regions


- Cia installer (just like wad installer)

- SD LOADER GX just like USB Loader GX

- A much better browser app

- A simple HTML editor/ loader

- A cheat engine like ocarina and action replay


I would be already happy if I have the exploid.

You predicted most of them right!

 

[admrlmse]

I'm not sure if it's already been said before but Doom 64 would be nice.

 

[hecker_isaac]

Gamecube is NOT possible on 3DS. If you want a portable fix of NGC emulation, use a decently powerful android phone with a bluetooth controller.

 

[TheAutisticManiac]

I'd wonder if it's possible to port Postal 1 on the 3DS.

 

[smileyhead]

I'd wonder if it's possible to port Postal 1 on the 3DS.

Doubt it, considering it's closed-source.

 

[AbolishIPLaws]

I want to see a 3DS VC for the old PokeWalker that came with each copy of Pokémon HG/SS

 

[TheAutisticManiac]

Doubt it, considering it's closed-source.

Actually, It isn't. RWS themselves released the source code in 2016.
Since then, people ported the game to the Switch, PS Vita and even Dreamcast. So it could be possible.

Oh, my bad. I didn't know the source was out there.
In that case, maybe? Although, I imagine it would be almost if not impossible to make it run on 3DS hardware.

 

[KainReaver]

How do we use cheats on a legit copy of NDS pokemon games? This is outside of twilight menu.

I just want to cheat in event items like the enigma stone for latias. Literally it.

 

[F3arm3]

Can somebody make a mod for mirror of fate that makes items/enemies that need to get grappled flash blue rather than white or have the "R" symbol flash by it?
I was fighting a boss in the game that requires you to dump acid on it but it just didn't register that I needed to use it, possibly because any time it is used in climbing the points shine blue.
And if you don't have the time can you point me to a tutorial so I can learn?
Also if this is the wrong thread please point me in the right direction

 

[Kwyjor]

If I'm not mistaken, you can use TWiLight Menu with a legit DS cart.

I just want to cheat in event items like the enigma stone for latias. Literally it.

I'm sure pkhex can let you add that to your save data. You just have to dump your data with Checkpoint, edit the data, and then use Checkpoint to put it back on the cart.

if it's possible to emulate wii u on a new 3ds then what about the original Wii?
