Dumping a 3DS CTR Cart.

Hello all,

Since yet, I haven't noticed that DS dev carts and 3DS dev carts have the same shape (see the pictures I took below). Then I wonder if someone has ever tried to dump a 3DS cart using the same way we do it for DS carts (with WoodDumper for example).



DS and 3DS probably not work the same way. Voltage of frequency may be different. Has anyone information on this ? Or anyone knows if someone has ever tried to dump a 3DS game using a DS ?

Thanks you

 

You can't dump it through Gateway?

 

Gateway isn't for 3DS only ?

 

uncart *should* work, but you'll need a properly exploited 3ds

 

I have few 3DS but I don't know to use them yet. I just wonder if it is possible from a DS. I would like to test but I want to be sure that I will not damage the 3DS carts I have.

 

No current method for DS.
Use gateway, or uncart if gateway doesn't work.

 

Thanks a lot for the answer. I have tried to dump a dev ctr cart with the "No gateway" methode (using an online website and a special file on my SD card) but it hasn't worked. But is was working with a retail game. So I wonder if 3DS dev cart can be dumped with a retail 3DS.

^how to Dump 3DS Carts

 

Thanks for the Link. Does this solution work with Dev Carts too ?

 

yes, dev support was added for the dumping of a similar-(or identical)looking dev cart.
Make sure you disable decryption and trimming for a proper dump

 

Then I have to test this method ! Thanks a lot !

 

Hello All,

Just to update this thread. I haven't dumped the 3Ds cart yet, but I have been able to test is on a 3DS Panda. The cart contains an update to turn PAL Pandas into NTSC one. This was useful to me as I hade many NTSC carts to test.

But I don't have a PAL Panda anymore haha.

 

If you can dump that it would be interesting have. What version does it update it to?

 

Will look for that version and come back to you.

But as the datas on the cart are probably still available on the Nintendo Development portal, I will not post them here, as it will not comply with the AssemblerGames rules, hope you understand

 

Any update on this?
