    Nintendo DS Crown3DS: the first REAL 3DS flashcart?

    Not fully confirmed yet
    What *appears* to be the very first real Nintendo 3DS flashcart has just surfaced on multiple scene news sites. TheCrown3DS, seemingly built over a commercial cartridge, is only able to play commercial 3DS games (one at a time) for the time being. We are waiting to confirm the exact list of games that the device supports.


    We have contacted the team and they've responded very quickly, yet with little information. We've asked for a compatibility list and are hoping to get it soon. But more importantly, what we need is definitive evidence which the team has so far failed to provide. So take this with a grain of salt because this hasn't been confirmed to be 100% legit. Although some sitesare already taking pre-orders for the device, starting at $99 (temporary price)...

    UPDATE: the team has answered our first questions. They promise that the device is legitimate (though being a new team we don't know how much credit can be given to such a claim), however it only supports 1 game at the moment - the game shown in the video. They are working on dumping other games and enabling compatibility with all commercial games. They are trying to be extremely cautious as they are afraid their device might get plagiarized by other teams. They have sent us exclusive high-res photos (see below) and have promised to unveil any further advancement directly to us. Stay tuned for more news on GBAtemp!

    people are going nuts over this on a few boards but we need to remember how slow the DS was with its flash cards, the original supercard didn't support saving at release, compatibility was flakey and every rom had to be patched with specific settings in a PC client before sending to the SD card and worst of all, you needed a whopping great passme device in the top of the device with an original game in. Its going to be a long time before we see anything like the R4/Acekards of today.

    I'm just hoping they get round the region coding more than anything.

    I didn't realise there wasn't a card for the 3DS. I'm guessing the R4 etc. don't allow you to play commercial games?

    Well I have just seen 3DS games now being successfully dumped, and the 3DS cannow play roms via the system without card just with the game on the SD in the SD slot, now I dont know if its true but there has been a outbreak of vids on youtube, type in 3DS Jailbreak and its all there.
