not trying to be a dick here but if you're willing to spend the money on importing games, maybe you should import a 3ds from that region as well instead of relying on people to hack the 3ds so you can play games you bought

just my $0.02

That would mean supporting the bullshit idea of region locking, which isn't an acceptable practice by console makers.

you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about

if you knew how to read, you would know there is kernel access

so where exactly is the proof of this? granted, i've been through ssspwn/ninjahax/whatever top to bottom and know there is no kernel access, but i still want to hear this because i'm sure it will be humorous.

Personally I don't think leaking anything damages GovanifY's credibility, but I do feel that since he's going against what Smea has said, it's on him to provide proof he's right, rather than for Smea to prove him wrong.

With that said, I'm extremely curious to see how Smea will achieve region-free without kernel access, because I can't see how it can be done while still disallowing ROM loading.

so dont import games, importing games to a region its not playable in is also supporting the bullshit idea of region locking, if you want to get rid of region locking, stop buying games from different regions other than your own

although its easier to buy the game then bitch about how you can't play it on your console

Haven't followed his activities, but if he did, then I'm just as curious as you.

Ahh, here we are:

Of course, this was back in August, and a lot can change in a couple of months, but he was confident at one point that he could allow for region free games.
Whether or not that means ninjhax originally allowed for kernel access and Smea has since taken the decision to intentionally gimp it is a whole other kettle of fish.

Region-free would mean arm9 kernel access, so I'm genuinely curious of how he plans to do that with this exploit. Ya know, the one that doesn't use a kernel exploit. ;)

That's not protesting region locking, it's playing by Nintendo's rules.

it's funny how all the people who continue to state that kernel access is possible are not devs and don't budge even though people who actually understand how the 3ds works tell them it's not possible.
really, stop being so delusional and face reality. it's surely not the end of the world if ninjhax won't make you run backups.

basically, I'm bumping this post: http://gbatemp.net/threads/speculation-yes-ssspwn-allows-kernel-access.374631/page-11#post-5173552


edit: btw it's 3:30 AM over here, I'm going to sleep. good thread-lock everyone!
