A comprehensive, multilingual documentation site and guide for installing custom firmware (boot9strap and Luma3DS) on Nintendo 3DS and 2DS consoles. The repository contains the source for 3ds.hacks.guide, built as a static documentation website.
Use cases
- install custom firmware on a 3DS
- hack my 2DS to run homebrew
- play games from other regions on 3DS
- set up Luma3DS and boot9strap
- run emulators and homebrew apps on 3DS
- back up and edit 3DS save data
- uninstall custom firmware from a 3DS
When to choose
- you want a step-by-step, up-to-date walkthrough for modding any retail 3DS-family console
- you need guidance that works on the latest system firmware without external hardware
- you want multilingual, community-maintained instructions with safety warnings and troubleshooting
When to avoid
- you are looking for software to install on the console itself rather than instructions
- you want to mod a Switch, Wii, or other non-3DS console
- you need a tool that automates the CFW installation process
