Nintendo starting to ban pirates from online services on 3DS
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 55 Comments
Nintendo is beginning to crack down on those who are using pirated tools and software on their 3DS units. Reports indicate that certain system owners using Sky3DS and Gateway cards are being banned. Based on what we’re hearing, the bans may have started on February 4 following the release of firmware version 9.5.0-22.
Affected 3DS owners in various countries are experiencing error code 002-0102. This typically designates an Internet connectivity problem, but some have spoken to Nintendo’s customer support service and have learned that they’ve actually been banned. Nintendo isn’t offering additional information currently and are unable to overturn it.
Banned users are still able to enter the eShop and can purchase games as well as download updates. However, they’re restricted from going online within games and using the Friends List. Furthermore, applications requiring online connectivity – Pokemon Bank, YouTube, and Netflix, for instance – are inaccessible. The Internet browser is still functional.

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 10 Comments
Sonic Boom has sold 490,000 copies worldwide on Wii U and 3DS, SEGA has confirmed. The company’s report doesn’t actually clarify if that figure is shipped or sold-in to consumers. However, it’s disappointing in any case, and Sonic Boom is the worst-performing entry in the series ever.
Today’s information about Sonic Boom’s performance comes from SEGA’s latest financial report. Other interesting tidbits are as follows:
– SEGA spent $210 million on games development
– That is a 27 percent increase compared to the year prior
– Advertising expenses climbed 53 percent, up to $73 million
– SEGA is releasing 50 games by the end of the financial year in March, but combined sales of all those are expected to be about 5.4 million units
– SEGA initially expected to sell about 300,000 units of its four latest Wii U games
– That is now revised to 230,000, making it the weakest platform in terms of unit sales
– Full year expectations for 3DS 1,160,000
– SEGA’s revenue for the three-quarter period was $685 million
– After expenses, that lowers to a profit of $18 million
– SEGA is now organizing a sweeping business restructure, which will rebuild the corporation into three divisions, as part of a wider plan to “drastically improve profitability”
– At least 300 positions at the corporation are targeted for redundancy
– SEGA has set aside $125 million for the restructure costs
– SEGA expects to lose $110m for the full year
