If your 3DS is collecting dust in some forgotten cupboard, you owe it to yourself to get reacquainted with the little portable if you somehow skipped it completely, it's time to snap up some great hardware and software deals while you still can. Streetpass provided a genuine reason to keep the console on your person at all times and backwards compatibility with original DS carts opened an avenue to another whole console’s worth of fabulous games.
Sure, glasses-free stereoscopic 3D turned out to be a bit of a non-starter, but the best games made great use of the feature and the ‘New’ hardware variant (which arrived in 2014) improved its ease of use considerably. The loophole was patched out shortly afterwards.It may have had a slow start at launch back in 2011, but Nintendo 3DS steadily went from strength to strength and amassed a huge library of quality titles - enough to rival the company's finest. That method required the use of a particular 3DS game's AR features to get around Nintendo's security. Last year Eurogamer spoke to a coder who had bypassed the 3DS' security and unlocked the ability to run homebrew apps and games. (Pokémon Yellow, while playable on the original Game Boy, is frequently available as a Game Boy Color ROM file).Ī video of the exploit in action lies below.
It's also limited to Game Boy Color ROM files, rather than other variants. The workaround is limited to the regular 3DS and 3DS XL models - the New Nintendo 3DS uses an updated browser which appears to have blocked out the method.
The exploit works by "injecting" ROM files into the memory of a legitimately downloaded Game Boy Color title - one that has been bought via the 3DS eShop (thanks, Nintendo Life).īy pausing the legitimate game and then switching to the 3DS browser you can then download full ROMs and get them running via the paused game in the background. A new exploit has been discovered that lets you boot Game Boy Color ROMs on 3DS.
