Little late to the party. 3DS system update just released! Do not update if you have not modded your 3DS yet, the currently used exploit BannerBomb3 has been patched! All currently modded consoles are safe to update. There is no effect if already modded

Some WiiU games, such as Mario Kart 8, disconnect clients who aren’t moving, ending the match. This can cause issues during local development The only sane solution, of course, is learning to play 2 consoles at once with your feet

@kangkomeji This affects Citra as well. Regardless of personal stance of Yuzu, this is a massive blow to the emulation scene in general. It’s created a lot of uncertainty and unrest with many

This is great news. Always happy to see vulnerabilities get fixed officially. That being said, their ending statement about shutting down online play if things become "too difficult to continue" is rather worrying

[Splatoon 1 / Mario Kart 8] Online services for these games will resume on Aug 3 at 1 am UTC. A software update will be required. Nintendo notes that online play may be permanently shut down in the future if it continues to be difficult to keep the services running.
