True, hacking a 3ds really is easy and it gets you loads of benefits.

Homebrewing your 3ds is morally correct

Hacking the Vita is equally easy

I was about to pay for NSO extra or whatever is calledt o play Game Boy games then I realized I could do that with the Vita I had collecting dust

Super easy to install emulators and super easy to install "back ups"

You can even use an adapter to use high capacity microSD cards and avoid the ridiculous prices of the propietary cards

Also if you do, you should really consider submitting Spotpass dumps to the Spotpass archival project as it seems that the Spotpass servers weren't shut down yet. Every little bit helps.

This also does help @pretendo with the revival of the online services as network dumps help them more accurately rebuild the services for individual games.

That's exactly why i got my N3DSXL, it's the definitive oem way of experiencing GB,GBA,DS,3DS and more imo.

Now i get to experience all the games i missed when i was younger

Real af, I got a 3ds xl for the same purpose and it's a fantastic gaming console.

I have a 3ds with a dead batty I threw it cause it started getting puffy. I have 2 questions before I start doing anything with the 3ds.
1 I need an R4 to do any of these tricks don't ya?
2 Is not possible for me to get this spot pass now can I get it later?
