You can't, that's fake. They better do something like that though.

>>25604249
Not OP, but are you sure it's not running homebrew?

I've seen some interesting hacks brought into the new VC release. EXP bar, different sprites, etc.

Shouldn't be too hard to swap out the GBC border, and run a Crystal.gbc file through the normal emulator.

>>25604321
Links to the RBY hacks please?

>>25604409
I think I might've actually found OP's source, here:

But here are the hacks I mentioned:

Pokemon Crystal.cia would appear to be what OP is looking for.

>Yellow didn't have a custom GBC Border for it's VC release
Missed opportunity.

>>25605098
So, how exactly do you install .cia files, if you're using OoThax? Everything I find involved Cubic Ninja.

>>25607207
What's more of a missed opportunity is them having coded a brand new emulator, capable of 5-colour pallets and trading wirelessly, but it lacks ANY unique visual flourish. No red/blue pallets, no special GBCs, nothing. This time, we can't even blame Gamefreak.

>>25607847
You need cfw. You can't install .cias with Homebrew Launcher alone.

>>25607888
Ah, that clears up some confusion. So I have to downgrade and install cfw, right? That's possible through OoThax, or do I have to jump through another hoop first?

>>25607946
It's doable through oothax.

emulators run like shit though.

>>25607969
Even GB titles?

Looking at the forum linked above, it seemed like they were using Nintendo's emulators with outside roms. Is that not the case?

Also, it's not said often enough around here, but thanks meng. Anon doesn't disappoint tonight.

>>25607946
Yeah, it's doable through oothax. It's pretty easy as well.

>>25608119
Tutorials are telling my I'm one step away from potentially bricking the system, so I want to ask just to be sure before I progress.

I have the 9.2 firnware, but I'm being told I also need the latest SysUpdater. Is this correct? Or do I move ahead with the 9.2 downgrade files? http://nicoblog.org/2015/10/3ds-hacking-a-simple-guide-without-flashcard/

> 2. Obtain the Downgrade CIA files for your region at 9.2 (I.e. 9.2.20 U, 9.2.20 E, or 9.2.20 J)
They’re at that ISO site in their CIA DLC, Themes, etc, etc section in that thread about backups and update packs.
[There is a spoiler that specifies the ones that are to be used for downgrades but go ahead and ignore this, enjoy your cold hard brick]

> 3. Create a folder called 3ds on your SD card and download
latest sysupdater and extract. Copy the sysUpdater folder to the 3ds folder.
File path: SD card://3ds/sysupdater (This will contain the 2 files)
