3DS Homebrew - Hack your 3DS and play all the games
Ғылым және технология
You can now Homebrew your Nintendo 3DS and 2DS consoles using only an SD card and some free, downloaded software.
This gives you a full custom firmware hack so you can play all your games from an SD card as well as getting access to all the Homebrew features. Play DS and SDi games, GameBoy Advanced games and even a wide range of other consoles such as NES, SNES and more. And all from your game backup files on the SD card.
Make sure you check out the project page at

Yes. Nintendo have been forcing some of the best places to remove their Nintendo games.
I bought a New 2DS XL (just before they ceased production) for the sole purpose of modding it. The hack is even easier now. I see you have a C64 on your desk. The Vice3DS emulator turns the 3DS/2DS into a very nice portable C64 with the 2nd screen being utilized for the interface and virtual keyboard.

If it's your original SD card I'd probably just use a new one to get more storage space. You should then be able to copy over save files if you need to keep your game progress. To copy the card you might need to use something like the Minitools Partition Wizard. It should let you copy at the partition level rather than just trying the files. To be honest though I haven't tried it.

Use the Minitools Partition Wizardto recover the SD card. It needs to be formatted as FAT32 but set the cluster size to 32KB for up to 32GB cards and 64KB for bigger. If you can't get Partition Wizard to see the SD card you might need to replace it.

That's a good question. Nintendo have been forcing a number of sites to take down their Nintendo files. You'll need to search around.
where can i find the tutorial for the new version?

i don't have access to a new version. You'll need to follow the instructions in the £DS hack guide to install GodMode9. From there its the same.
When I press the scripts option, only GM9Megascript and NANDManager pop up, not finalize

It looks like GodMode9 is working so I'm not sure why you don't get all the options.

is there a good way to convert a .3ds file to a .cia file, not sure where you got yours from

There are converter apps. Just do a search and they will pop up. I think you can also use the GodMode9 app on the 3DS to do it.

hey man I tried reformatting my sd card and retrying the whole tutorial but every time it just keeps being stuck in loading at the extra data section and everytime I tried the sanity test it all came out positive

Make sure the SD card is formatted as FAT32 with the 32KB cluster size. Some SD cards are incompatible. If you've got another try using that.

It won't hurt to update, but the hack does replace the firmware anyway with it's own up to date version.

@@BytesNBits thank you for your reply. I just realized I have to unscrew the 3ds and open it just to take the SD card out. I am a software person with severe motor fine coordinations issues I don't like to mess with hardware that isn't a desktop. Desktops have a lot of space to inside so I don't have to fear stabbing the motherboard. the 3ds is going to have everything in one crowded place. I will ask my grandma of anyone else to open it up for me on the weekend. Hopefully it won't be hard.

Hi I have a question. You said that the console wont use .3ds files, but I have seen a guy use those files to install the game with gm9 (just like FBI with the .cia). Is it because he uses a New 2DS XL? (the video in question: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iq1_tseKm93XqdY.html , timestamp 7.05)

Yes. You can install .3ds files in a range of ways. This video shows the easiest way to get the games onto the system. I do plan to do other videos showing 3ds files but it's on a ever expanding list of todos!
Hi, many thanks for your tutorial ! Is it valid for New 3DS XL models as well ?

You can format a SD (or pendrive) on Windows in FAT32 using "format" on command line with /FS:FAT32 argument.

it's the bare minimum to download the homebrew stuff but you should definitely upgrade to minimum 16gb to be able to actually store games, recommended would be 32 or 64gb (in the case of 64gb and more you need to format it to FAT32), anything after 200 gb is not recommended tho due to issues with themes and bugs with gba games
