Hello my friends, and welcome to another episode of 3DSCast! In this one, we have our first interview!! I sit down with Luigoalma, the primary mind behind Cleaninty, which you can read about on GitHub or the Hacks Guide Wiki.
Cleaninty is the software that allows SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) transfers. What this means is if you mod your 3DS, and then change its region, this process allows you to make sure you retain access to your E-Shop account and Nintendo Network ID, or NNID.
We talk about Cleaninty and a whole mess of other technical amazingness. It’s almost a primer for the hardware and software mess that is the 3DS, and the geniuses that worked their way around those messes to create the homebrew mods we use and love today.
It’s a very deep dive, one I was fascinated to listen to, as I learned so much. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did, and I thank you for listening!
P.S. Apologies for mispronouncing the name of the podcast in the beginning. I’m still new at this.

Thank you for bringing in Luigoalma to the podcast! There are so many technical things that I didn’t know and after everything was explained, I started to connect the dots.
It is all so interesting to listen to, and it made me realize that this tiny little console can pack so many things. It’s amazing that once you unlock the 3DS, so many things can open up simply by just homebrew.
Thank you for Luigoalma as well! Your extensive knowledge (though you said it’s limited because you haven’t been in the scene in a while), is just amazing. Hope you get a good rest after the podcast!
Can’t wait for the next guest you have in line!
Right! It’s so fascinating to learn about the ins and outs of this amazing little device. Thank you for listening!
