Over the last ten years or so nearly everyone has played on a Nintendo DS, DSi and now people are enjoying playing on a 3DS with its ground breaking technology. With this improvement in technology, we have seen a huge increase in the amount of people taking advantage of home brew games.
People using DS consoles have been using Kernels which will bypass the security that Nintendo have placed in the systems; this is something that has been done for years now. These new alternative Kernels have allowed the DS to play movies and other media files direct from SD cards or SDHC cards and now that can be done with the 3DS.
Nintendo are not happy about the use of these Kernels to bypass the security put in place in their units but one thing they must be happy about is the fact that these Kernels are giving the actual handheld units a wider appeal.
However there are people out there using the Kernels to illegally download pirated games and this is not good for the industry.
Overall though the introduction of new features enhances Nintendo's appeal and because developers are able to code home brew games then it ensures that there will continue to be a growing need for the 3DS as more and more software is written. It might even be the case that Nintendo are allowing their devices to be coded because surely there must be a way to prevent users using these alternative Kernels.
No matter what you are using the Nintendo 3DS for, it is surely going to be a device that will go down in history and could soon put its stable mates in the shade. Because Nintendo have invested so much in the DS and have added so many new features, we can be sure that they will play a major role in the 3D market for quite some time to come.
