“Battle Analyser” exploit used to cheat in online Pokemon X/Y battles
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
A new online exploit has been created for online Pokemon X/Y battles known as the “Battle Analyser”. The tool is able to intercept data, allowing the user to view all of their opponent’s creatures and moves. While it hasn’t been perfected yet, the exploit still provides a significant advantage.
As for how the program works, a PC is used as a wireless hotspot. This allows online data to be captured, which ultimately reduces the strategy involved with battles and makes the playing field uneven.

Nintendo 3DS Guide: Louvre is Nintendo’s first multi-region 3DS cartridge
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 3 Comments
Here’s an interesting tidbit about Nintendo 3DS Guide: Louvre. Interestingly enough, the app is Nintendo’s first multi-region 3DS cartridge.
Those who visit the Louvre Museum can purchase a retail copy in either Japanese or English. The English version seems to cover North America, Europe, and Australia territories. So that’s one English release for different countries – something we haven’t seen on the 3DS before.

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Update 2: Target can’t seem to get its facts straight! The retailer now says the price will be honored after all.
@FailurexEvan We have some updated information. The Zelda bundle is included with the Black Friday deal!
— AskTarget (@AskTarget) November 27, 2013
Update: Turns out Nintendo’s information was incorrect. Target says the Zelda 3DS XL bundle won’t be offered for $150, but all other standard models will be.
@mattfarloly The Zelda bundle isn't included on our Black Friday 3DS price. Check your store for game availability: http://t.co/YbaFa8q0Bq.
