Last night’s 3DS firmware was more than just a simple stability update. We’re hearing that Nintendo made a change to the “ARM9 binary” in order to add a new layer of encryption.
With the increased security, Nintendo seems to be attempting to crack down on the Gateway flashcard. Owners of the device are now unable to run multiple ROMS from the same SD card.

Latest 3DS update said to partially address homebrew exploits
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 12 Comments
An exploit was recently released for the 3DS that allows the system to run fan-made homebrew. All of the work is done through the game Cubic Ninja, which is now naturally in high demand.
Nintendo just launched a new 3DS update tonight. As a result, it’s only to be expected that many are wondering if homebrew is affected. The short answer is yes.
Today’s firmware is said to address one of the later stage exploits in Cubic Ninja. Two exploits still work apparently, though 3DS owners who are interested in homebrew may want to hold off on updating their system.
