You can use this site to get the necessary files to use 3ds.guide. Beginners are still advised to manually go over the guide once to know what you're getting into, the purpose of this site is for convenience for those who use the guide a lot. Files included are payloads, exploits, and apps. Copyrighted files are not included but magnet links are on the download page.

I like this. Will definitely be easier than running around github and torrenting with to many tabs open in chrome [emoji28]

Does this stay updated as the guide updates, or do you update it manually? If the latter it could be dangerous..... I already made an app that downloads stuff, and doesn't require a torrent client (I have torrent code in my app), and it stays updated automatically because it parses the pages and extracts the links, and parses the github release pages to find the direct links there. And extracts the files and puts them in the right folders on your SD. I stopped working on it due to not having time and passed it on to @Olmectron though.

Yea it get's whatever is latest on github, I don't manually add each version. Unless something new comes out then I would have to update it manually to include the new things.

This is a problem. The guide linked to an older version of SafeA9lhInstaller for a long time, not sure if it still does, because of potential bricks with the latest version. My first attempt at a guide downloader (it kept packages of files from each day as a sort of archive) was also getting the latest version of each github repository - that had to stop when the guide started linking to older versions on purpose. Also, if there is a new tool it won't capture that until you notice and add it (that happened to me too).

The guide currently links to this one and that's where it grabs it from. And yea, I see the problem with having to manually add new tools after I notice them but I don't see a change in that unless the site parses the guide website somehow. I don't think it'll be too much of a problem as new tools are usually big news and I frequent shacking forums, unless I'm dead or really sick then I wouldn't be able to add it but the chances of that happening exactly when a new method is out is slim.

Would you like to just use my database? I maintain links to all the files by scraping the guide.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree

    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
