Can't say I'm not worried about getting hit with a false positive.
Lock out my 3DS if old.
This week, 3DS hacking communities are clamoring over a so-called ban wave that permanently knocks systems offline.
On forums like GBA Temp, Reddit, and 4chan, there are dozens of pages where people are trying to figure out if their systems have been banned. According to online reports, users hit by the ban hammer are seeing an Error Code: 002-0102" when they try to load up their friends list:
While its difficult to pinpoint a commonality between all affected users, many admit to downloading custom firmware to the system. With custom firmware, users can alter their 3DSes, use emulators, dump game cartridges, and more. Others say they have pirated games for the 3DS, while some claim they didnt do anything at all, but were banned anyway. (We cannot verify such claims.)
