The story of the 3DS AES keys is the story of platform security itself: a battle between hardware designers and reverse engineers. For eight years, these keys protected a library of over 1,000 games, secure online play, and a digital storefront. Today, they serve a new purpose: enabling preservation, emulation, and homebrew.
