- Homebrew List - Developers List - Github List of 3DS homebrew. This is a full list containing all homebrew software released for the Nintendo 3DS. I'll try to keep it up-to-date whenever possible, feel free to contribute if you want to. Click on an entry to view details about a specific homebrew.
- Apr 13, 2021 Homebrew formulae are simple Ruby scripts. Homebrew's GitHub page is very well documented on how to contribute your own formulae in the rare case that you can't find what you're looking for. Read more on this here.
Usage instructions
Homebrew installs the stuff you need that Apple (or your Linux system) didn’t. $ brew install wget Homebrew installs packages to their own directory and then symlinks their files into /usr/local. Since the Homebrew 2.5.2 release, you can upload bottles (binary packages) to GitHub Releases, in addition to the previous standard - Bintray. Support was added to Homebrew/brew in this PR on 2020-09-15, and a companion PR to Homebrew/homebrew-test-bot added support for setting the base download URL of bottles to point to a specific release on.
- Download latest nx-hbmenu.
- Put the hbmenu.nro on the root of your sdcard.
- Insert the sdcard into the device.
- Set your Switch DNS server to 104.236.106.125, and perform a connection test.
- Click 'Install'.
- Restart the device, and perform a new connection test.
- Click 'Run'.
- Go to the home menu and click the Album icon.
If you see 2000-1337 on your screen it means installation succeeded.
The exploit is finished when there's a popup asking you to exit.
Manual server installation
- Clone latest nx-hbexploit300.
- Run 'make install && make' in the git repo.
- Take the contents of build/ folder, and host them on a static HTTP server.
- Setup a custom DNS server that redirects the A record for
ctest.cdn.nintendo.net
to your static HTTP server. Block all other domains / disable DNS request-forwarding.
Frequently asked questions
I am below version 3.0.0. What do I do?
You can upgrade to 3.0.0 using a cartridge of Pokken Tournament DX. Warning: some very recent copies of the game come with 3.0.1. Be careful!
I am above version 3.0.0. What do I do?
Currently we have no plans to support 3.0.1 and above. We recommend buying another system purely for homebrew purposes.
When the time comes, we will release nx-hbl which is our NRO launcher that can be used with kernelhax'd systems.
How do I know what version a system comes on?
In the retail store, you can inspect the serial number on the box. See here to find which serial numbers are likely to be 3.0.0.
This is a little risky. If you buy a refurbished system maybe it will come with a newer firmware version than the serial number would have you believe.
Where can I find homebrew games/applications?
We have created a page on our wiki where we will put homebrew, you can find it here. Put them on your sdcard in the switch/
directory.
Can I host the exploit myself?
Yes, you can. For advanced users we provide nx-hbexploit300.
This allows you to set up your own server hosting the exploit. All you need is to setup a malicious DNS server that redirects all A records to a static HTTP server of your choice.
I want to make my own games for my Switch. Where do I start?
You can develop homebrew using libnx.
Github Homebrew 3ds
Here is a tutorial on how to set up the development environment (works on Windows, Linux and Mac).
Homebrew Github Password
Here are a few example projects that you can compile and run. We also have Doxygen documentation of libnx here.
Also, come visit us on irc: #switchdev @ EFNet. :-)
I'm getting error 2347-0003?
This means the nro file wasn't found. Make sure your sdcard is inserted, and that it has hbmenu.nro on its root.
GitHub Homebrew App For PS Vita!
Is this a kernel exploit?
No.
