Support for amiibo was added. Support for the Old3DS NFC peripheral(which communicates with 3DS via IR) was added.

All updated New3DS titles now use New3DS-specific NCCH crypto, see here.

NATIVE_FIRMEdit

Most of the ARM11 kernel changes were to fix an ARM11 kernel flaw.

All ARM9 kernel changes:

  • The ARM9 kernel equivalent of the above code involved with the above ARM11 kernel flaw was updated, the changes for that are exactly the same.
  • An unknown kernel function was updated, this function seems to be ARM9-kernel specific.

  • Keytype value 0x9 support was added to PSPXI:EncryptDecryptAes.
  • The New3DS-only commands for Process_Services_PXI were removed, the code/data for those were moved into NFC module.
