Hi
no
Ok
Ok
Ratio muda 😌
I love whenever Muta mods a console. He usually sounds so happy whenever he talks about the process.
Of course ladies and gentlemen
@卐-SoundWrathAesthetics-卐 bye
Really reminds you of what this channel supposed to be: a gaming channel where Mutahar would provide us with commentary.
O' good days, those are no longer with us.
@@frds_skce Gayer than me bruh, he talks about things he's interested about and that's it. Nothing actually changed, people just get new interests with time.
It is quite fun, especially when you see the amazing results from it. All consoles I own are modded, mostly through software. Only my 360 has a hardware mod because it never got a software jailbreak.
Nintendo: we're gonna be shutting down our 3ds eShop early 2023
also Nintendo: please don't pirate our games
Nintendo: we're not porting over the Virtual Console
also Nintendo: please don't pirate our games
Please don't pirate the games we're no longer supporting. It's really bad when you don't pay us another $60-80 for a rehashed version of a game we've already rehashed.
Nintendo goofy. Nintendo hates rom hacks. No more funny plumber man to goof around with.
@@piranhalettuce please pay for a botched port that's no different than the original yet charge at full price
Well tbh once the eshop closes it really isn't piracy if the games won't be available to purchase anywhere, it's game preservation imo.
Muta: if I can do it, You can do it.
Also Muta: *uses arch* *has multiple undetectable VMs* *built his own MutaPhone and MutaDeck* *has great computer and security knowledge*
Lol true!
Or mudahar industries
What do any of that have to do with modding your 3ds
Everything. It's a Computer with an OS and everything. Cursors, Taskbars, and Windows make not an Operating System. :)
Dude there is a step by step guide on how to do this. As long as you can read ANYONE can do it. Ofc if you are mentally disabled it could become troublesome too.
I was too scared to hack mine as I knew if I messed up, I would risk bricking the system. However, I got shitfaced drunk and decided "yeah, I can do this" and next thing I knew, I was playing Smash 3ds with all the dlc. Basically, what I'm saying is that it's so easy to hack a 3ds that you could do it drunk as shit like I did.
gonna try to do this soon too lol
That actually goves me the confidence to do it lol
I've probably saved 3,000 dollars with my homebrewed 3DS. I still use it pretty often to this day. Love it!
I hope to see James Corden sent to North Sentinel island one day to be a cannibalistic offering. Imagine how many hungry tribal children he would feed.
On god, I have no idea who would spend $180 on Rhythm Thief lmao
@@SlimeDoesArt For sure man. It's pretty damn nice being able to play any old Pokemon game I want, and not having to pay 100$ on eBay to get a single cartridge. Pirating from multi-million/billion dollar corps is moral in my book 😉
Hacked consoles and pc have probably saved me 100k lol.
@@TylerMBuller12 Don't even get me started on PC software I've pirated 💀
Nintendo is so horrible they would sue a grieving family for putting mario on a gravestone
That's more Disney cause something like it actually happened.
@@JTruong3rd what happened
He ain’t comin back legally lol
Thats more of a disney thing
@@weeby87 I feel like all these child friendly companies are always suing people
The thing I like about modded 3DS the most is the fact that you can use fan patches for certain games to improve the experience of half arsed ports or that you have the possibility to install fan translations of games which only released in Japan.
Right, Miles Edgeworth Investigations for example.
Or get cool Fan Ports like Prboom 3ds
Majora's Mask 3D had all of these TERRIBLE changes made to it. Project Restoration makes it play like the N64 Majora's Mask did.
I actually picked up my first 3DS earlier this year for fairly cheap and modded it and it was really easy, great to be able to play all the games Nintendo's ready to throw away when the E-shop goes down next year
Good for y'all!
I hope MarioCube comes in to preserve these like DSiWare.
I watched the whole video without owning (or planning to own) a 3DS. Muta is just a cool guy to listen to while washing dishes 😋
I hope to see James Corden sent to North Sentinel island one day to be a cannibalistic offering. Imagine how many hungry tribal children he would feed.
Well, if you wanna get one in the future, now you know how to pimp it out!
I also watch muta while doing dishes. Helps make the time go by quicker!
I plan to get one in the future lol
@@SSBBPOKEFAN True! Maybe someday. Right now I have a pimped out Vita and that's plenty for me.
I always wondered how much actual legitimate legal standing these title things really have.
You can legally call yourself a lord or lady, and that is it, since you have no subjects or land to manage you don't get any of the responsabilities or privileges that come from the tittle.
No actual legal standing.
"Ma lord, your tree is deathly sick. We need your Majesty's presence ASAP."
None, just a fun little gimmick. Still a good cause though
Zero and the plots are BS in 90% of them. haven't looked up this one in particular but tbh they prolly sell the same plot 10 times if u actually get a plot that is.
This gave me a huge wave of nostalgia. I modded my 3ds with soundhax in late 2017 and upgraded to CFW when Nintendo dropped an update to patch soundhax. Lots of good memories :)
I've long been too nervous to try modding any of my consoles or handhelds, but watching this video made me actually go through with it and having Muta's video on while I go through the process helped make me sure I didn't miss a step. Thanks very much Muta, you're the best
How did it go? Thinking of doing it rn just scared to get ur bricked
@@tropazcentral233 It went perfectly fine. I also went ahead and modded my Vita and ps3 too. Those were even easier to hack since they used less steps.
I remember doing this in the past year. This guide is really useful and also doesn't promote piracy. Not only that this guide also helps you prevent yourself from getting banned as well as backing up Incase you brick. Thanks for bringing awareness to this guide, and especially since 3ds is so moddable.
nonononononnono youll still get banned eventually even for modded system but honestly who cares at this point expecially with pokemon bank going away soon i had my original 3ds banned eventually i modded it for cheats in single player stuff cause you wouldnt belive how many effing games on the 3ds need the front facing camera to work for qr code stuff ( vast majority)
but honestly i wouldnt care if you pirate anyway afterward since you cant buy stuff anyway and now all 3ds games worth it are not worth overpaying scalper prices for
@@noyukikun you dont get banned i modded my system 4 years ago lol
it was simpler than this, only needed the internet browser and a few sd files
never got banned from eShop and my NNID never got affected
last year there was another browser based method that was updated days after i performed it and i was lucky enough to mod 8 DSes with it
I hope to see James Corden sent to North Sentinel island one day to be a cannibalistic offering. Imagine how many hungry tribal children he would feed.
@@noyukikunI have like 100 pirated games and have played online with some of them and haven't been banned
@@ryanm8529 I only have pirated five games so far and I have 128 gig SD card on my 3DS
I didn’t think he’d show us the process of modding a 3DS, now I can actually follow the steps and do it myself with a UA-camr I trust, truly awesome stuff !!
You really shouldnt follow video guides for modding consoles. This video just came out so it'd probably be fine, but usually you should look at a text guide.
@@TheGreenBlur ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
@@TheGreenBlur I would, but it’s hard to focus on things and going back and forth, autism be holding me back from focusing 💀
But I’ll try that regardless !!
@@TheREALPlasma_101 Understandable. If you do give it a try, the site Mutas following is linked in the 3ds hacking subreddit. (Pretty sure I cant post a link in UA-cam comments, comment would get flagged.)
@@Kirr to be fair autism manifests differently in people
It’s nice seeing Muta make a video about 3DS modding. I modded my 3Ds months ago, and it took a while to go through the steps. But I’ll tell you if you decide to mod, it’ll open doors to a lot of opportunities. IMO, it’s a great deal.
It's amazing how you can make a tutorial video about something that means nothing to me but still make it fun and interesting to watch!
Things like this makes me put Nintendo on perspective over the years, even tho things like this seem shady to the corporation, at the end of the day, people love programing. Having gaming consoles with such tools and exploits like this really give value to the console away from the nostalgia and gameplay. Thanks for taking the risk Mr. Muta
(Muta breathes in Nintendo's direction)
Nintendo: Are you threatening me?
😂😂😂
Muta: *Glitched face*
I hope to see James Corden sent to North Sentinel island one day to be a cannibalistic offering. Imagine how many hungry tribal children he would feed.
🤣🤣🤣
??? I'm confused? Has Nintendo ever taken down one of his videos?
Muta I’ve been going through major depression lately and your videos have been keeping me afloat.
That was lots of fun been a long term fan from the creepypasta days, and idk there is cool to me that you were able to help me finally softmod my 3ds. Been wanting to forever, but only found the game exploits, so thanks for the awesome video.
You mentioned doing this a while ago and I'm really glad that you're doing it.
I hope to see James Corden sent to North Sentinel island one day to be a cannibalistic offering. Imagine how many hungry tribal children he would feed.
I remember played MarioKart 7, Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed, and New Super Mario Bros. 2 on the 3DS. Great memories!
The dashes! That is where I went wrong too! Thanks Muta for being the only place I have found this device.
Just hacked my 2ds XL last wednesday. absolutely fucking absurd and i highly recommend!
To be honest i do feel its best if a console isnt succesfully cracked till its after its prime (not just piracy, hackers and creeps), but yeah ppl who say its wrong are dumb.
I hope to see James Corden sent to North Sentinel island one day to be a cannibalistic offering. Imagine how many hungry tribal children he would feed.
The last thing hurts, its the law it stands for nobody.
for me it's the fear of getting banned or bricking the shit when updating
BACK IN MY DAY you had to worry not about any of that bc games came complete
"creeps" what do you mean
I'd think that the 3DS is comfortably after its prime these days. If Nintendo were still making much money from it, they wouldn't be about to close the eShop.
It's probably a good idea to keep low key about hacking the Switch though.
Thank you for your content muda. Watching your videos is throughly enjoyable.
Sometimes yeah!
The 3DS is such an incredible system, man. I’m hyped to create my own menu theme for it along with maybe some stickers for the cover!
…I also wanna enter a Splatoon 3 tournament with my 3DS just for the heck of it
Muta idk how I found your channel but I am glad I did! Great quality content! Keep up the great work bro!
I just did this Muta, so happy you made a video on it. Such a great time. CFW has never been easier.
Browserhax xl was easier.
@@seandoesstuff4172 was that before luma?
@@LYDLNX Luma existed then. Keep in mind, browserhax and browserhax xl are different.
This video's release could not have been better timed. I ordered a 3DS like a week ago and it arrived earlier today. As I was unboxing it, I happened to check my YT recommendations and here we are lol.
Coincidence? I think not!
Really cool and fun to watch! Could you imagine making more console modding vids?
It’s not piracy if you can’t buy it
I used the Pichaxx method to mod my 3DS last year. It was a bit simpler than this method but most of the steps are the same. I love my 3DS. Modding it is absolutely essential.
i already modded my 3ds a few months back but it was still fun to watch you go through the process, makes me realize again how fun it really is
Same, just modded my 3DS.
Yeah the best part of modding consoles to me is the process itself
Had to use that hacking guide recently, I didn't know the console was still receiving patches, so I had to work around a newer version to region swap a Japanese 3ds LL. Absolutely worth doing in the end, the homebrew tools add so much more charm. Having access to e-shop content again with those tools is keeping alive the titles that just won't exist anywhere else.
WHen you are speaking so fluidly and clearly, that I can still perfectly understand you when watching the video at 5 times speed.
I originally didn't mean to watch it at five times the speed, but I love playing with that addon, and I was just surprised how well I still understand you at 5x
3DS homebrew and CFW is awesome! I'm glad Muta talked about how to homebrew the 3DS, since it's one of the best consoles to install custom firmware / homebrew on, as well as the Wii U and PS Vita.
I hope to see James Corden sent to North Sentinel island one day to be a cannibalistic offering. Imagine how many hungry tribal children he would feed.
Agreed and I have noticed his 3ds on his desk for awhile.
wii u can literally play any nintendo game except 3ds (and switch exclusives)
Yeah, its pretty nice the N3DSXL managed to run Castlevania symphony of the night and ff7
Original wii is awesome to homebrew as well
I used to be into PSP modding. It was fun getting Windows 95 to barely run before it crashed the PSP. And just being able to download games or borrow a friend's games and copy them. Untold Legends: Brotherhood of The Blade is one of my favorite games
Love these kinds of videos. Thanks for uploading!
You cannot fathom how happy i was to see a video from muta pop up when i looked up modding for my new 3ds
I literally just did this! It was the first system I ever hacked and was surprisingly so easy!
THEY CAN NEVER TAKE MUTAH DOWN💯
hoorah
Nah they can't take down our powerful indian tech support overlord!
I hope to see James Corden sent to North Sentinel island one day to be a cannibalistic offering. Imagine how many hungry tribal children he would feed.
Never understood these, because really they try, at least that I know of.
thank you muta but ive done this 2 years ago
but this is informative for other people keep up the good work king
I always just watched this types of vids because I'm interested in those types of videos, but I have a new 3ds laying around taking up space, can't wait to turn it into a emulation beast
What I really love about having a hacked 3DS is the ability to dump/load save files from games installed and physical cartridges, load them up on an emulator to keep playing the games on a big screen and vice versa. Used that quite a bit. :3 And there are many more interesting features, like running old 3DS games with the performance enhancements of the New 3DS, fixing the framerate/performance for a few games,t hough some games become unstable with those active.
Recently hacked mine and didn't know you could run old 3DS games with performance enhancements on New 3ds! And fixing other technical issues. Where is info on how to do that?
Good Video!
Got cfw around 5 years ago and can't imagine my N3d XL s without it
I got homebrew set up on my 3DS XL during the Winter break of 2021 - awesome way to spend it. It was great to get my own legit ROMs as well as getting all the different emulators set up. Can't recommend it enough!
Yea I remember when I modded my old 3ds the first gen kind I bought from GameStop years ago. I wanted to mod it for years eventually got round to it with some help cuz I was rather dumb about it. I love it but ended up getting a Japanese new 3ds from Japan and modded that myself and I've been in love. Even added a psp nub over the rubber nub for a c stick.
Yeah, I saw the 3ds meme going around and, like you, I was unsure if they were being serious or not. Tried it, and yes. It's very easy.
Just for the record, these "established titles" type things where they sell lord/ladyship are a novelty. It's not a real tite, they give you essentially a patronage position in their company titled "Lord" or "lady."
I looked into it a few years ago
he just needed some money like all vpn sponsors
I study law at university and let me tell you, it is all bs.
Aged well
Ive been waiting for this!
That sponsorship aged.... well 😅
I remember doing it with a magnet... there were sooo many hacks before the latest one, but it became easier and easier every time a new hack was found
Modded my old 3ds since 2019. Absolute lifesaver tbh!
Change your "nipple analog" stick on the 3DS to a PSP analog stick (I forget which version 1000/2000). It has better movement and is much easier to use. Plus is actually comfortable.
Being someone who got the 3DS when it first launched and being disappointed at first with the launch games. Then being rewarded with the Ambassador Certificate, giving you 20 free games when they made the 3DS XL a year later. Getting 10 NES and 10 GBA games no one else got was really awesome at the time. I remember looking up tutorials on how to mod it early on, but not finding anything I actually wanted to do. I'm so glad it's easy to do this and this tutorial explains it perfectly. I can't wait to transform my "New" 3DS XL into a modded beast. Been waiting for this!
My tech illiterate ass will never do this out of fear of killing my 3ds somehow
Man, I remember modding the DSi back in the day. Good times.
Your grammar is... Questionable.
@@Avaitor_YT Yeah, it's actually good, and not poor like most YT commenters.
@@Avaitor_YT your profile pic and channel are questionable
My 3DS has been modded for years now, but it is nice to see Muta informing people who may not know how to do it.
As a fellow tinkerer I understand the sound of pure bliss in your voice. I modded my 2DSXL back in the day, had hours of fun with that guy.
I did this a while back and it was one of my best moments with the 3DS. I felt like a child, I felt like anything was possible. So please if you haven't hacked your 3DS do it!
The Nintendo 3DS is a homebrew JUGGERNAUT. Been using it for weeks and it is the best. Homebrew your 3ds if you haven't already.
I already did this with my 2DSXL earlier this year but it's fun to watch Muta do this stuff.
Does it work on a normal 2DS then? I'm worriieeed
@@charweez Yeah, it works with anything in the 3DS family. Including 3DS, 2DS, new 3DS. Whatever.
i think once a system has it's store taken down, it should be fair game to mod the console, i fully understand the reasoning behind not wanting hacks when it's in its prime. it becomes impossible and extortionate to try and get games for consoles like this.
Necro, but I agree. The system is no longer made alongside the games, so nothing's being threatened outside of nintendo's ego and maybe the microscopic amount of digital sales.
it's really great to see muta doing what he loves - screwing with nintendo. big agree!
Now because of muta we will never get the Dr Mario remaster we've begging Nintendo for since the N64 era... Thanks alot...
I was doing homework looking up topics on the rosette stone and this video popped up ain't complaining tho
I applaud your enthusiasm :)
Love those websites for the ds and the psps and stuff, makes it so much easier for folks that don't understand all that much! I never would have been able to mod my dsi without it.
I don't even have a 3DS. I just enjoy listening to you, Muta
Very cool to watch a buffer overflow exploit in practice. It's rare now because of stack canaries and other protective measures...
It’s so amazing seeing 3ds modding community evolve. I remember in middle school 2014 wishing I could hack my 3ds to get all mythical Pokémon, but being upset I couldn’t because I had an updated 3ds firmware for which the exploit didn’t work. Oh how times change😂
who else here after the e shop closed lol
me
I was so afraid I would screw this up for the longest time that I waited exactly when the eShop closed so I'd have no excuse. And I gotta say, aside from the sheer number of steps looking daunting, the steps themselves are very simple. It really is easy to mod/hack your 3DS.
Thank you so much for this video i use my 2ds xl tons due working in no service areas and I managed to get it to play ff7 and excellently it was the most surreal experience it beats the resolution of the Mobile port and is more portable And convenient than the switch port, I just find it so cool what this thing is capable of.
Awesome video , you channel is a massive inspiration to us smaller creators 👍👍
Love da Content Mudahar
Lord Muta has a ring to it.
modding my 3ds was so much damn fun, using a bluetooth controller through my pc that inputs into my 3ds was just amazing, making my 3ds lights rgb was the cherry on top
I absolutely love my hacked 3DS. One of my favorite things to do is use kit-kat slim to stream it/control it with a PS4 controller. Really fun stuff.
Modded my 3ds just over a month ago, best decision I ever made. I've dumped all my games and play them on citra, and any games that rely on the touchscreen or just feel 'right' on the 3ds stay on there. And Portable half life, doom, and quake is a pretty slick deal as well
uh, forgetting dementium 2
I loved modding my 3ds, its been modded for a couple years now. Takes 5 minutes to do. Now I've got 1000s of free games on there ranging from NES to the 3DS. It's good that you can still play Online too.
5 minutes if you're familiar with that type of stuff. I don't know the first thing about modding/jailbreaking/ect
@@Training_Wheels I only say 5 minutes because it's just dragging and dropping files onto the SD card. Not much to do to mod the system. It would probably take on average 15-25min.
@@PopADoseYo
15 - 25 minutes if someone is familiar with that type of activity. I've never done anything of that nature and would most likely just get frustrated and throw the game boy at the wall
@@Training_Wheels Oh that stinks. I found it pretty easy since the website goes in order of how to do everything. Nothing frustrating about it, anyone with a 4th grade comprehension level could easily do it.
@@PopADoseYo
Well if I do decide to try, and then I happen to fail..
Then I will acknowledge that am as smart as a 3rd grader and will beat the living sh1t and p1ss out of my game boy pocket.
It will from then on be called a
"Game boy rest in pieces all over the room" 😬
Did this over the summer. Most fun I’ve had for a while.
Got a 3DS XL just this year which I practiced CFW on. It was really fun to do, and finally got to try genning pokemon legendaries
The question is: When Nintendo comes after this video, will we see the follow up videos covering the legal battle? Or will this be dropped the moment they try anything?
Not funny.
There are tons of tutorial videos on how to do this. I highly doubt Nintendo is coming after Muta. I hacked my New 2DS like two years ago.
this is completely legal btw, the illegal part is pirating the game, just buys the game and dump it yourself.
He didnt pirate a game. And emulators can run non-nintendo software so they have no legal right to said software. Even then, Muta will normally try and own an legitimate copy of a game he is emulating (example Astral Chain) so he has a "license" for it and he can save it, back it up where ever he likes legally.
As long as he isnt selling ripped files or modded DS's for cash. Nintendo legally cannot do anything.
(Also nintendo shutting the eshop for it in 2023 basically means every 3DS is effectively "abandonware" in the eyes of the homebrew community because nintendo is notoriously bad at offering legal means for folk to buy and transfer thier purchases legally.)
@@Makorze If they're merely the catalyst for the hiding of the dislike count, I'm sure they'd wanna get rid of videos that do so much as criticize them. The only reason they don't do that is because of the backlash they'd face should they do it.
That intro aged well huh
lmao
This brings me back to the days of using an action replay on my DSi to get everything on Pokémon haha
Yeah some 3DS games are pretty awesome I agree. On emulator as well. Nice resolution upscaling. Ocarina and Majoras Mask in 1080p is pretty neat.
Played both of them. Would advise everybody to play Majoras Mask in 1080p.
An experience you won't forget so fast.
Weirdly enough hacking my 3DS was super fun, like more than playing the games.
I hope to see James Corden sent to North Sentinel island one day to be a cannibalistic offering. Imagine how many hungry tribal children he would feed.
Really? Cool! Good for... You?
Happened to me as well, cfw on consoles is like a drug for me
modding the actual games is even more fun
I felt the same! I felt giddy the whole time I was doing it. I want to buy another 3ds just so I can do it again.
The devs of the 3ds hacks guide updated the guide so now this video is now obsolete.
EDIT: As of April 9th 2023, the 3ds hacks guide has updated again for the new 3ds consoles so now this video is only outdated for those consoles.
EDIT 2: As of May 23rd 2023, this videos method WILL NOT WORK on old 3ds consoles if you have updated them to 11.17 before modding. If so, you will need to use R4 cards or some older method like Ninjhax to mod it. New 3ds' are still working through web browser exploit.
thought i was going insane man
@@tfxckz quick note. NEVER use videos to install CFW and only use the official guides provided on 3ds hacks guide as they're always up to date. You can watch the videos to see an example of installing but don't follow them.
@@Luca06Luna yeah i noticed while i was watching this, thankfully i’m on the right track at the moment
dam, and i wanted to follow his steps exactly, i knew i should have done it sooner :(
@@soratots Dude, did you see the original title of this video? This shit is click bait following the trend of videos titles "Nintendo will take this down.." that was started by LTT. Just go to GBATemp.
As someone who's been following the softmodding scene since the PSP CFW 1.5 days, it's easier to follow written instructions than videos. Seriously, I've been following this stuff before I was even in high school. If I could hard mod a PSP battery, you can soft mod a 3DS.
IM SO GLAD I DID THIS A FEW DAYS AGO
Love my modded 3DS + just modded my childhood DSi yesterday. I'd say one of the best reasons to mod a DSi/3DS would be so that you can backup your savefiles, I've already backed up my Pokémon Diamond save so now I can start a new game without completely losing what I've done before. Good stuff 👍
aren't ds saves in the cartridge itself?
@@namesurname4666 yes they are, what i was saying was that i can copy the saves from my cartdrige onto a sd card, and then put it somewhere else on my computer
I modded my 3ds a couple years ago and it was easy and allowed me to play the games I couldn’t play when i was little.
I soo wanted to mod my old 3DS when I was a teen (13-15) but I needed the online usage. And i think you needed a 64gb memory card which was pretty expensive at the time. My 3DS now is so busted in some parts that its just not worth to mod too..
@@Martin-yh7vi I mean i did mine at that same age range I was able to mod mine okay the 4gb micro sd was good enough for a while but you are right about the cost because i didn’t have a job then and had to buy an adapter and I got a 32gb micro sd which cost a decent amount
Video getting taken down any% run looking good so far, hope you get the WR
I dont even wanna hack my 3DS but i really like listening to this tutorial of yours. Nice Work
I have no idea why I watched this I I have never even tried a 3DS but , I enjoyed watching this. Thanks.
Not sure if it was said in the video because I've already done this a few years ago so I skipped through (sorry). but regardless of the 3ds having 32 GB card limit, I have mine loaded with a 128gb microsd card and it works perfectly fine (the load times are slightly longer). You can also use an r4 card loaded with a 2nd micro sd card to save even more space by running ds and retro roms off the r4. :) (If you buy an r4 card make sure it supports the proper type of micro sd card)
If you buy a microSD card with over 32 GB, use a program that can format it to FAT32 or it probably won't work
the first r4 released only supports up to 2gb, found out when the loading screen was stuck, newer ones (with sdhc logo/after 2010) should also support 128gb fat32
the only "legit" r4 model is the first one, the others are ripoffs like r4 gold, r4 3ds
i have a r4 3ds with timebomb (firmware expires if date 2022 is set) to fix you have to install a different firmware like ysmenu, just hope it supports multiplayer and most games
thanks @Lena Martin and @NameSurname for filling in some of the info I forgot/missed :) Here's a bit more my brain could "mustard" up for anyone completely new to this. If you are planning on buying a 3ds for this project, ask yourself why you are doing this, you can emulate more games on a phone at half the price and play with a Razer Kishi. The one thing no other emulation system can do properly is the feeling of authentic 3d 3ds gameplay. The problem is the 3d effect hurts your eyes and doesn't work at many angles. The "new" 3ds models track your eyes, this hurts less, and works at almost every angle but costs more. Imo you should go with a "new 3ds xl" model or "3ds xl" model (use 3d less) or nothing at all. And if you are more interested in a handheld emulation system but 3ds isn't that big of a deal, I would look into a Razer Kishi, psp vita, ds lite or a gpd xd
The 3ds is probably one of my favorite systems. It has a decent library of games. Good battery life, everything about it. I modded my 2ds xl recently and I'm enjoying it.
I bought a 3DS for the first time this year and I did all this during my vacation.
It was like a childhood dream come true.
And I mean, if the eShop wasn't closing, I wouldn't do it.
But the games are extra expensive here in Brazil.
