The Death of the 3DS (and Wii U)

Last year, Nintendo removed the ability to make purchases on the 3DS/Wii U eShops. This month, on March 27th of 2023, is the end. You will be able to redownload previously purchased content "for the foreseeable future", though.

To be crystal clear: if you ever wanted a digital version of a 3DS/Wii U game or it's DLC, you have less than a month to obtain it legally. That's it.

So, what do you need to do? Simple. You need to download the following free software to future proof your 3DS:

1: PokeTransporter If you literally ever want to play pokemon games older than the 3DS and move those pokemon forward, you NEED this app to transfer from DS to 3DS.

2: PokeBank This software transfers pokemon from 3DS to Switch, and is going to be free after the eShop closes. It currently has a $5 subscription fee, but again, this will be removed after March 27th. If you want to transfer any 3DS pokemon to Switch, you NEED this app.

3: Pokemon Picross The save data for this software is used to hack the 3DS. Even if you don't want to hack your 3DS, you may someday want to play a 3DS game that is digital only, like Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation. This is the current software used to hack your 3DS using the excellent 3DS hacking guide.

On a related note, my guide on what to do with a hacked 3DS is available here, and my Wii U guide is here.

It is impossible to brick your 3DS or Wii U with modern hacking solutions, but you should still follow the instructions closely to make sure you don't scare yourself.

Once again, either you download Pokemon Picross or you are committing to never playing any digital 3DS game you don't already have.

If you have questions, my inbox is always open. Nintendo may have given up on these consoles, but we never will. Rock on, tumblr.

oc question: does marie have any other opinions about Dublar? (my oc) (also have a mini extended dublar opinion about marie: Dublar is unsettled by Marie and would rather perfer to be away from her, but they wouldn't mind hanging out with her and finding out more about her. Dublar has a morbid curiousity about her. Though they think they should really stop smoking or at least not smoke around them, and her love of expensive pastries might be a bonding point.)

Helloooo! Thanks a bunch for this ask! I wasn't expecting this but what a lovely surprise! ^w^

I feel like Marie would find Dublar to be much too positive for their own good, what is there around to even be so happy about anyways? Their positivity peeves her to no end! How do they even manage?? However, she cannot deny her curiosity surrounding them. How is it that their heart is like that? How does such a thing even happen? What effect does such a difference have in their day to day life? She simply MUST know! She must fuel her intrigue by any means necessary or she will never know rest.

And hey, who knows, maybe she'll learn to enjoy their presence yet... It just may take a long long while.

Interesting to learn what Dubby thinks of Marie! Seems the both of them share a curiosity and desire to know more about the other party... And yes, it would be best for Marie to stop smoking, but getting her to actually do that is most certainly not going to be an easy task. Hey, at least the love of fine delicacies are another similarity they hold, what's not to enjoy with that?

Thanks again for the ask, it really means a lot. Hope you have a lovely day! =^w^=

Artists Beware! Please read if you have a DeviantArt account:

https://twitter.com/DeviantArt/status/1591113199218487300?s=20&t=4k4OiBqcoEj0GgFm5_zKDg

DeviantArt have just announced that they're launching their own ai art generator, and every deviation that has ever been posted has been automatically opted in - I've checked this for myself and every one of my own artworks now needs to be manually changed in the settings of every single deviation otherwise they'll be used.

To have your artist username exempted from prompts you have to fill in a Google form to be approved by a human, and you must prove that you operate under your respective alias to ask them not to use it - read more here

Suffice to say I'm livid, I've been on DeviantArt for a decade and I'm going to shut down my account once I've manually opted out my hundreds of deviations. On their promotion page for the new tool they'll emphasize that it's *totally within the control of the artists* showing an image of the checked box that opts you out, while not mentioning that all of your previous deviations are already opted in by default.

I would recommend that anyone who has similar plans as me and wants to leave the site should manually opt-out for every deviation before shutting down your account, just to be on the safe side because I'm not sure if just deactivating your account would count as opting out.

I'll try to keep this post updated with accurate and up-to-date information since AI related stuff can quickly cause a frenzy online - don't hesitate to DM me with any new information and I'll update it here!

Watch out everybody, here comes Redacre! One of my few but very beloved scp ocs.

Dr. Marceline Redacre has the ability to reverse any and all damage done to her back onto the perpetrator, earning her the unaffectionate nickname of "Uno" by Cleff. She is also one of the more bubbly and hopeful scientists within the facility, wanting to try every possible avenue before an anomaly can be deemed "dangerous", thus resulting in her being the head of the Ethics Committee.

Of course, her being the only member of the Ethics Committee makes this incredibly easy, a fact that absolutely no one takes her seriously for. They're here to research and contain, not placate or empathize. But she intends to change all of that!

In addition, she was also assigned to care for Gaea, who she almost views as a daughter by this point, surprising her with plants from all over the world when she can get her hands on them. Unfortunately, this makes it impossible for her to avoid interacting with Dr Cleff at all hours of the day, who almost makes it a duty of his to playfully mess with the gal.

random af question but (if marie is french) how would she react to dublar also being french? dublar would be suprised but not that intrigued.

Hmm, good question! I feel like she'd be confused as to what they were doing in Middlesea of all places and trying to wrap her brain around why anyone would possibly ever want to leave France.

Y'know, ignoring the fact that she was more than happy to leave too lolol. Apart from that though, she may make note of it and kinda move on. Interesting, but it doesn't impact her life in the long run, does it?

Hey, at least Dublar can understand her whenever she uses french terms in order to be fancy! That's fun, hehe!
