Reminds me of early 3DS hacking and CFWs. Don't worry, we'll get there eventually. The fact it can do this at all is a major step.

Now you reminded me of the 3ds homebrew scene. It was so fun. Its amazing how active it was as well. But now its at the point where you can homebrew one by scanning a qr code, no need to buy a specific game or special cartridge.

Yeah, hacking a 3DS is incredibly easy and painless today. Back when I first hacked my 3DS I had to do it through the browser, after inserting a bunch of code on an SD card, and it only had a 50/50 chance of actually working, with the risk of bricking the thing.

MVG says not likely since the bootloader would need an exploit as well... Which currently doesn't have a soft mod related exploit
