Big news on the DS scene today as Team Twizzers releases the initial version of Sudokuhax, a new exploit that lets users run unsigned codes from the DSi's SD slot thanks to the recently discovered flaw in the DSiWare game, Sudoku.

The exploit in action

According to the team, the project started in early December when they managed to get the "DSi mode code execution by exploiting the DSiWare application ‘Sudoku’ by EA. Sudoku is only available for regions USA and EUR/AU (Nintendo has now apparently removed the game from the EUR/AU and USA DSi Shop). Exploiting DSiWare is interesting because in DSi mode the DSi SD card slot is accessible, the whole 16MB RAM is available, and the CPU is clocked 2x higher than DS-mode. The max size of the embedded code that can be loaded directly via this exploit is limited so a small payload was needed to chain load to another application. Initially a wifi loader was used, but this was switched to load from the DSi SD card slot. The SD card loader boots /boot.nds from the SD card directly from Sudokuhax."

It's not so much that they can't hack it, the big thing is not having to do it w/ solder...lol. The main problem w/ hacking the DS series is that there isn't ay kind of data port (lk on the GBA)and the wireless isn't all that useful unless you want to have a wireless boot system (if that were the case I'd probably just buy a flash cart)

BTW, I actually downloaded Sudoku before any of this popped up so...lucky me! XDDDD lol jk I'm nt trying 2 b a butt.
