I really liked how we were able to hack brawl with our music and characters but now the 3ds version is out and soon to be the WiiU, what types of hacks will you like to see and when? Should this be limited to advanced tech hacking or simply a sd card like pm or home brew?

As a melee player and someone who didn't care for brawl... this game is fine. Music and costumes if you really want to hack that, but gameplay fixes, I'd say no this time around.

Not sure how the homebrew scene is for the 3DS at the moment.

The only homebrew is the Action Replay, which alters memory on a physical cartridge (i.e. a billion bells in Animal Crossing) and a flashcart that you can dump ROMs of 3DS games onto and play them on your 3DS, 3DS XL, 2DS, New 3DS, et cetera. Otherwise there's pretty much jack squat.

Although MrBean5000VR (or whoever did those Mario Kart Wii/8 hacks is, I think that's his name) has managed to pick apart some things in the Wii U. As of right now there's a possibility somoene has figured out how to screw around with things using the SD Card slot, but it seems unlikely.

I've heard some rumblings in the hacker underworld that someone built a vicious malware program, though they're still working on how to distribute it. Just rumors, though.

Only the early versions of Brawl allowed this, any newer (which was not even half a year after release i think) fixed the glitch in the music file. This required us to take advantage of the ungodly easy to hack wii lol....which honestly is the sole reason i hacked mine. I wanted brawl+. i didnt even put NES/SNES emulators on the thing for a loooong time, despite being a good platform for classic gaming.

3DS might be hackable but unsure how it would affect online play. We already have a modification for capture cards that dont deny online, so never know.
WiiU is unhackable unless you want to remove it from the internet. Its option to auto update is a lie, it will update whether you want it to or not. I believe its just as easy as the wii was to hack but again its that autoupdate problem, not the hacking itself. Which is the best way to deal with hackers imo lol.

My thing is though, the Sm4sh game is fine as it is. Couple of tweaks could be needed, but theyre minor. Nothing as huge as OMGWTFTRIPPINGZOMG! crap lol. Brawl had a LOT of flaws in it, thats why modded brawl became so popular.
Someones going to try to mod sm4sh, mark my words. Question is, what do you sacrifice to do it and was it even worth it?

If someone were to hack Sm4sh, I'm wondering what they would do. Would they add stages? Mechanics? Maybe they'll put all the stages and items from SSB64 into the game engine of Sm4sh?

Or TARGET TEST!!!

Only thing i could think of is another Project M where they overhauled a majority of the characters to declone them, make more true to their original self (thinking wario here), tweaks to fix the useless moves, etc etc.

I.e. complete rework. Project M is by no means Brawl lol. I think they made more money off of Project M than Brawl because everyone had to get brawl to play PM

Hacking the 3ds has been done before, remember the 3 secret characters in Pokemon x and y, I believe the first hacks will be simple hacks like everything unlocked or secret stages and characters. I dunno

Something with smash just seems to be too much going on to not be hackable.

That said don't think it should be hacked not do anything major anyway.

Music, costumes, stage reskins. Fun and non-functional things to customize the experience a bit more.

Oh, and freedom of control reassigning. Don't wanna have to have L be a jump button just so Y can be Grab, even if I never hit L either way.

Simple hacks like those may take months or years to change the music even longer to hack characters, you could also hack rejected stages or skins
