@TheDavyStar You could downgrade to exploitable firmwares and install a CFW to pirate games. However most of these 3DS hackers (smealum,yellows8,plutoo,etc.) make these homebrew exploits for people to enjoy. Not with piracy or any illegal activity in mind. They aren't as selfless as you think they may be and they aren't doing this to getting eshop games taken down. The tweet with the smiley face was sarcastic since it takes time and patience to develop an exploit. Smealum even realised having ironfall taken down affected their income and apologised and it did come back ,just patched.
