Well Monster Hunter X is sheduled to release in japan this 28 of november...but, you already can pay for it an pre-download it, the thing is that you need to wait until release date, to activate...

Here a picture of a friend console...

Well my question is.... is possible to hack this predownload game to activate before release day? In the game text say 16 more days to play it.....maybe some method? Or at least dump the download to a cia?

Anyone knows something about?

Thanks ;)

Not sure, it doesnt seem to be easy. I'd say no and isnt that illegal playing before? So why you cant wait 2 weeks?

I can wait, just trying to figure if anyone knows how to do it, or if making a dump can work as a predownload game.

Just have curiosity about it, because i know another games on other platforms have been hacked from predownload versions...maybe in 3ds can be possible too.

I'm pretty sure there's no law that says you can't play games before their street date. Heck, I would have been arrested for playing my new PS4 that I won before it was officially out. There probably is something in the EULA/ToS/whatever about it, but that doesn't mean it's illegal.

I would imagine preloaded games from the eShop are similar to ones from Steam in that they're missing data to allow it to perform, and that data gets sent after the game is officially out. That's just my guess, though. If people have been able to access preloaded games without being connected to the internet, maybe it's possible.

Indeed i remember gta v pre download, no one could run it until sony released a patch or something.
So its up to nintendo.
I have already tried dumping Fire Emblem if on Jun.1st.
Our entire team stuck on the lacking of SEED until the release date was coming.

and maybe the 95% in this forum give you details step by step on how to hack and do illegal things, we dont need to be cynical about it

I was just pointing out the flaw in what someone else said. Saying it's "illegal" to play a game 2 weeks early

    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022

    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
