A new 3DS exploit injects Game Boy Color ROMs into Virtual Console titles

28 Jan 2015

A new Nintendo 3DS browser exploit means Game Boy Colour ROMs can be injected into existing Game Boy Colour Virtual Console titles.

What this means is that titles like Pokémon Yellow can be played through already existing (and purchased) Virtual Console titles.

While it’s a new 3DS exploit, it’s not a New 3DS exploit. Get it? This will work on current 3DS firmware, but not with New 3DS firmware. Yeah, we know; we’re a tad confused too.

Thanks, Vooks.net.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
