Homebrew Thread

BASICSploit is confirmed working and will be out either today or tomorrow. https://twitter.com/MrNbaYoh/with_replies

I don't care how clever the name is, I hate this. If SmileBASIC gets removed from the eShop temporarily, the Miiverse page better stick around, else I'm afraid of all the Miiverse posts getting deleted.

I think you'll be fine. Just try not to talk about the exploit. You will get b7d. ...probably

http://mrnbayoh.github.io/basicsploit/ He's crediting "the lumage team" for the BGSCREEN bug XD The exploit isn't released yet so don't get too excited by that link. Just thought the credit was funny. I'm not expecting Lumage to be flattered. (Lumage, if you're reading this, you might want to post a github issue or contact him via twitter if you don't want to be credited in that way)

    All the testers :)
    The lumage team for discovering the RAM bug

Considering I reported the bug the moment he said he was able to use it... And that all I could actually do while we were actually researching it was provide snacks, I'm simultaneously flattered and appalled. Yeah, this isn't really a thing I want my name on, thanks for the notice. Especially as he didn't seem to quite bother to do his research on what (or rather, whom) the 'lumage' name on those links referred to.

The exploit for it should be up within 18 hours from the posting of this post, but it could be later or earlier. https://twitter.com/MrNbaYoh/status/751936056057012224

thought it was 18 https://github.com/MrNbaYoh/mrnbayoh.github.io/issues/1 (If you couldn't tell I'm not very good at creating tickets)

Um. Yeah. That's what I meant..... Sorry

Got this exploit on my old 3DS only to immediately uninstall it. The only reason I used it was for SNES emulation, which the new 3DS now has officially.The piracy has gotten worse since I last used homebrew, too. I guess I'm just incredibly salty about the homebrew community, their choice of game, freeShop existing, the fact that everyone will disregard the amazing SmileBASIC community, and freeShop existing. (well, actually reconsidering uninstalling because SmileBASIC File Manager)

Is FreeShop some type of Eshop where everything is free? Isn't that like, piracy or something?

Yep. Homebrew in general is illegal, though, so the exploiters don't really care about piracy. That's why Nintendo is trying really hard to stop people from exploiting.

You know that you can actually use homebrew without pirating anything right ? The way I see it, it's the only way to get region-free cartridges. Regarding SmileBasic I really don't understand why no one use homebrews to import and export code, it'd be much simplier than PetitModem :/ Miiverse community should be fine, there are still communities for games previously hacked and removed from eshop. Thankfully, the exploit don't use the latest update of the game, so I don't think it will be pull out from the eshop soon ! The only thing I'm affraid of, is that this could cause a greater delay for an european release of the game :/

"Thankfully, the exploit don't use the latest update of the game, so I don't think it will be pull out from the eshop soon !" are you blind https://smilebasicsource.com/forum?fpid=10928#post_10928

Ow, I didn't know that :/ Well, Ironfall Invasion was patched and re-released later, there's a good chance it will be the same for SB ! They're still working on the game after all (:

I can tell you pretty much everything here is wrong or misguided. It's possible to avoid piracy, but don't deny that a large portion of "unlocking" the system does it for piracy. Region-free is one thing, but that's not what goes on in the end. People do use homebrew for file transfer, look up SmileBasic File Manager <already addressed> I don't think this will actually affect Europe that much and even if it did you wouldn't be able to tell. Then again, even longer approval times could still happen.

I need to unwatch this.

Oh I didn't know that. Thanks for your answers, anyway ! Regarding piracy, I don't deny it, but well, as an European user who had to go to the trouble to import a console just to play some games, and still want Japanese exclusive titles anyway, please let me think I'm not the only one to do that ._.

Why are us CFW users stereotyped to pirates? One of my questions.

It's moments like these where I wish funcooldudes wasn't right about SmileBASIC being exploitable
