Introduction

❌ What Does NOT Work

  • Original Flipnote Hatena online services: Nintendo shut these down in 2013. Unpatched CIAs cannot upload or download animations.
  • DSi camera & SD card slot access: The CIA emulates the DSi environment, but direct hardware access to the 3DS’s cameras may fail. Use the 3DS’s built-in camera app separately.
