Homebrew Using Homebrew Apps, I was able to restore my long lost PKMN Y Save Data that I lost 3 years ago...

Have you had a Game that lost its save data?

Back in 2014, I was messing around with some stuff that involved my Pokemon Y Save Data, and then, Because of Nintendo's Anti-SaveGame Restore patches, The Save Data became Unusuable...(And that Save Data contained all of my beloved Pokemon that I brought from Pokemon Black/White, including my First Ever Pokemon. I was stupid enough to not put my most prized Pokemon in the PKMN Bank...) Not knowing what I did, I thought it was impossible to reverse...So, I backed up my SD, in hopes that someday in the future, I'll know how to restore it, and then, I reseted my game...

Now, in 2017, 3 years later, I was able to find the back-up I made on my PC (It took grueling hours to find it because I forgot where I put it), I replaced the 1.sav file in the PKMN Y section of my SD, and I was presented with the same error screen from the Anti-SaveGame Restore Patch. Luckily, JKSM can bypass it. So, I backed up then restored the Data with JKSM, and...I GOT MY SAVE DATA BACK!


Here's a picture of my VERY FIRST Pokemon :)

I LOVE IT SO MUCH

Congrats! Hopefully you can continue to bring them to newer journeys or something when Sun and Moon.

I honestly wish I could say the same with my release date Animal Crossing save file.
Click to expand...
With the possibility of US/UM bringing back the "Pokemon Can Follow you" feature, I'll be looking forward to! :P

Also, sorry to hear about your Animal Crossing Save...

Nice! I wish my 3 almost 100% complete Final Fantasy VI saves were still here but I pretty much lose everything. Even my Pokemon Platinum save was almost lost .-.

I lost 100+ hours of Pokémon y and 30+ hours of animal crossing thanks to one a lady from Nintendo CS removing my nnid from my 3ds xl a few years back, I was trying to put my club Nintendo account onto my 2ds but kept getting an incorrect password error(as it turns out their servers were having problems).
Luckily they were able to restore the nnid onto my 3ds xl but I had to format the system plus sd card before I could use it again, I'm not sure if I made a backup of the sd card before I formatted it.
Fortunately for me I had Pokémon bank at the time so I was able to transfer across the important Pokémon, while I'm still pissed off at the lady who almost lost me my games I didn't loose everything in terms of Pokémon y however did loose my items in animal crossing.

I'm glad you managed to get your save back, i'd be over the moon about that!

I still have my Pokemon saves from the original GameBoy games. Thanks to homebrew i've imported my saves from the GameBoy in to the Virtual Console version and migrated my squads to GEN 7. I can't wait to do the same with Gold and Silver next month. I'm pretty chuffed to have my first Pokemon from 17+ years ago in the latest generation of games :)

    VR had the chance to integrate with existing games and tech but VR companies said "NO, I WANT MY SHIT TO BE STANDALONE AND MY GAMES EXCLUSIVE TO FACEBOOK"

    Back when Oculus Rift was still starting out and being demoed around, they modded existing games to use it as a 360° immersive screen thing and that was AMAZING.

    The tech isn't there for affordable power enough VR headsets at a good market value yet sadly, oculus had a good idea but didn't have enough funds for marketing iirc

    But now it's "can I use my VR set with my racing games, that would be neat?" "ONLY IF YOU USE OUR DILDOSTICK CONTROLLERS AND RUN THE GAME ON OUR ANDROID-UNDERPOWERED BRICK"

    The tech to have quality VR goggles at an affordable price is here, but every set has to have 4 additional controllers and be standalone.

    These are the same type of gamers that spend $2,000 on a GPU when a $600 GPU gives nearly the same outcome which is what the market looks at for them to do spend more on unneeded bs
