Noobz gives quick Illuminati exploit update, Lumines sales skyrocket to 14,000%

Lumines sales go UP UP UP!!! - Image 1In the wake of the recent Illuminati exploit from Noobz, the team has posted a quick update on their site yesterday. No, they haven’t come up with a downgrader. (Yet.) But they gave a suggestion for PSP users exploiting with a European Lumines:

It seems that the Illuminati exploit doesn’t work properly if your PSP is set to non-English settings. At a guess, it’s something to do with unicode when displaying the profile name. // Anyway, if you are having problems, especially with the European Lumines, then try switching your PSP to ‘English’ settings.

Well, a lot of our commenters have asked, really, which version Illuminati would work on. Good thing Noobz was finally able to clear it up.

Now speaking of Lumines, Noobz pointed out that, over at Amazon, sales for Q Entertainment‘s rhythm-puzzle game went skyrocket. As of June 24, Lumines sales went up 14,000%. Surprised?

We checked for ourselves how the game is currently doing. Under the Video Games category of the online store, it pushed way past the currently released games for the Wii, DS, and PS3, and is now comfortably sitting on spot #2 (right under the Wii console itself). Sales ranking though currently notch it up with an increase of 350%.

Moving on, for those who have been waiting for the grand daddy itself (i.e. HEN and a downgrader), we’re still promising to give you guys an update. If you remember the last time, January 25 saw the previous Hello World exploit. Then, just two days later, a homebrew enabler and downgrader finally hit FW 3.03.

It’s been two days since the Illuminati “Hello World” exploit. It’s going to be any day now… (or maybe that’s just some of us hoping) As of now though, let’s make Tetsuya Mizuguchi proud of how his creation is currently helping the homebrew community.
