This is my first torrent upload! WHEEEE!
This torrent contains all of the known 3DS ROMS that I've converted from .3DS to .CIA for your convenience. These are intended to be run on an actual 3DS with Luma3DS CFW. Google is your friend if you want to learn how to convert a CIA back to 3DS for use with an emulator like Citra, though sometimes installing the CIA into Citra works as well.
Regions:
EU
USA
Asia Pacific (Japan, China, Korea and Australia, but a majority of it is Japan)
There are some English patched games (at least one) here and there, but the regions are mostly inclusive to themselves. If there's a game missing that you want included let me know and I'll try and add it in, otherwise they're all on archive.org here: https://archive.org/details/nintendo-3ds-complete-collection and here: https://archive.org/details/nintendo-3ds-complete-collection-pt2. If you want to download it all from archive.org I'd suggest using something like JDownloader2 because the torrents posted there aren't complete. Click "SHOW ALL" and c/p https://archive.org/download/nintendo-3ds-complete-collection or https://archive.org/download/nintendo-3ds-complete-collection-pt2 into JD2.
To reiterate: THESE ROMS ARE MEANT TO BE INSTALLED AND RUN ON A REAL 3DS DEVICE FAMILY MEMBER ([New]3DS/3DSXL or LL /2DS/2DSXL or LL etc) THAT'S BEEN SOFTMODDED WITH LUMA3DS. If you try and use Citra to play these games you're on your own since I'm not offering support for emulation here or anywhere for that matter. Thank you.
Lastly, this whole torrent (should you want to download all 3 regions' worth) is about 1.3 TB... Be sure you have ample space to store it all.
Happy 3DS Gaming!
Superb.
I get why Australia is bundled with Asia, but the games released there were PAL/UK ish (different cover, same version). However, AUS probably had special editions and exclusive games of their own.
@Mysticus haha I literally just downloaded the entire thing off of Archive.org and then I ran it all through a .3DS to .CIA converter to make it easier for y'all to play on an actual CFW'd 3DS. Anyone could have done it, but I didn't see a torrent that's (mostly) complete in CIA format.
@icemagician they should be yes. But like I said in the initial post... these are meant for a real 3DS running CFW. They should install with FBI just fine.
@dembercorrales01 There should be one english patched game (Monster Hunter Online or something like that) in the JP folder. Undubs I have no idea. I quite literally grabbed all that archive.org had and made CIAs out of the raw 3DS dumps. I did nothing more and nothing less.
Godlike work!!
But I'm also looking for complete 3DS Undub collection. Someone please upload? T__T
Anyways this is still good since some games have option to use Japanese Voices in the option menu.
Also how are you seeding this? Via Seedbox or through your own PC?
This is HUUUUUUGEE O___O
Thanks again!!!
Installing many or even all (if that's possible) on a 3DS, it's a real pain in the ass as you have to install and then you can play it. If only it'd be like PSP.
any noteworthy games in EU that aren't in US? a quick glance in wikipedia gave me the inazuma eleven games, a naruto game, and some one piece games. aside from that, most of the EU exclusive games are children's crapware. i know this is a dumb question because it is but a trivial thing if i knew some scripting languages .
thanks for the release by the way!
@SomaHeir No prob! I didn't see any 3DS Undub collection anywhere, but if I do I'll upload it here ;-) and yes I'm using my own PC. it's always on anyway so wynaut?
@Impakt honestly having all of these games installed at the same time is near impossible (let alone pointless since most of them are just regional copies of each other). I'd estimate it'd yield about 2 TB if not a tad more, and I don't think the 3DS can read anything that huge, though I've not tried. SDXC Cards that big are ungodly expensive right now... Also, how is it a pain in the ass? You simply copy your target CIA's to the cias or elsewhere directory on your SD card, and then on-console via FBI you install and or install and delete them. I'll ask again lol how is that a pain in the ass?
@anyone seeing this: if you're interested in the collection and you have the space on your computer/seedbox etc: please SEED. I can't seed forever and I'll likely be hitting my crappy cap, though I'm behind a VPN right now, so IDK if that'll deter that (though I doubt it).
@velvet-kiss my pleasure! And I have no idea re: EU noteworthies... I literally only decided to post this because I didn't see a torrent like this anywhere. I wouldn't call it a "release" as I'm not a part of the collective "release scene" but I know what you mean. :P
@Shiggitay oh yeah my bad, i forgot to take into account scene releases in my wording. i'm currently downloading US releases right now and will be seeding for quite some time. for those who plan to do so, don't forget that some US games are censored, the biggest i remember back then being FE Awakening's tharja bikini scene being godray-ed in US releases while they remain "pure" in the EU release. also, some notable games are lacking in their respective regions such as SMT: SJR being EU only and vanilla SMT IV being US only (or maybe the respective region versions of those games never got dumped, i dunno).
slow day at work, so i sorted out the games and weeded out supposed "duplicates" between US and EU. here's a link to it: https://pastebin.com/Xe8Dyvcj
also, some games are also mislabeled or maybe placed in the incorrect folder like "3DS1110 - Adventure Time - The Secret of the Nameless Kingdom (USA).cia (211.9 MiB)" being in the EU folder.
despite that, thanks for compiling this torrent! makes a great starting point for those who never bothered to hoard 3ds ROMs.
also for convenience's sake, this is the torrent for the undubbed 3ds rom pack: https://nyaa.iss.one/view/1254602
@velvet-kiss: re: "also, some games are also mislabeled or maybe placed in the incorrect folder like “3DS1110 - Adventure Time - The Secret of the Nameless Kingdom (USA).cia (211.9 MiB)” being in the EU folder." haha oops.. I had a feeling I misdragged a file to the wrong folder... I could fix it but at this point it'd be a pain in the ass to redo it all. Thanks for lookin' out!
Hey guys! Thanks for seeding! I've dropped out of the pool for now but if you need a file or something that's somehow missing I can pop back on and you can grab it! Happy 3DS gaming!
Came back here to download some more 3DS games.
@Pantsucon
You need 3DS CIA Decryptor to decrypt it and can install fine on Citra

Tested it with DOA Dimensions and works wonderfully :)
