If you're planning of using flashcarts to play illegal downloaded ROMs in your 3DS, well you better think again!
A Japanese retailer Enterking has posted a firm warning to customers on their website that states: "Dear customers who resell Nintendo 3DS," reads the translated note.
"Non purchase able 3DS system.
"In case if you use equipment which is illegal or unapproved by Nintendo or if you do customization which is unapproved by Nintendo, there is a possibility that Nintendo 3DS become non bootable by system update." "From Nintendo 3DS terms of agreement "Because of terms of agreement above, Enterking refuses to buy 3DS system with record of illegal or unapproved equipment. "Request to format before you sell "To protect from leaking your personal and internet connection information, we ask customer to format system. In case purchasing could not be established after you format 3DS system, Enterking is not responsible for lost datas and settings. Please understand before you format." When quizzed about the issue, a Nintendo spokesperson told Eurogamer: "We do not discuss product security details (for obvious reasons), nor can we discuss the details of countermeasures available in the Nintendo 3DS system. Nintendo 3DS has the most up-to-date technology. The security has been designed to protect both the creative works in the software and to protect the Nintendo 3DS hardware system itself." Nintendo 3DS is slated to arrive later this month.
