  • Upload images of unused textures, all the VR and other strange images, and document both the stronghold map crash and the huge 1.9 update.

Minecraft: New Nintendo 3DS Edition is a port heavily modified fork of the Bedrock version of Minecraft designed for the New Nintendo 3DS...hence the name. This version of Minecraft in particular is based on a very outdated version of Bedrock (specifically Pocket Edition Alpha 0.15.4), so some of the unused content there is present here as well.

Debug Display#

Changing the FCRAM adress 0x0294B340 to 1 will display on the lower screen the used and avaliable space in memory and vertex memory, with it displaying the FPS.

It additionaly shows the game version on the main menu and other info while in or loading to a world.

Unused Blocks#

Old Pocket Edition Leftovers#

Glowing Obsidian#

Textures for glowing obsidian, a block which was also dummied out of Pocket Edition Alpha 0.15.4, exist within the game's files.

Nether Reactor Core#

Textures for the nether reactor core, a block which was also dummied out of Pocket Edition Alpha 0.15.4, exist within the game's files.

Stonecutter#

Like in Pocket Edition, the original stonecutter is obtainable in creative mode only and has no functionality whatsoever.

Unused Pocket Edition Textures#

info update#

The default texture pack contains references to the two "info update" unused blocks from Pocket Edition. Their texture is also included in all texture packs.

reserved6#

The default texture pack contains references to reserved6, an unused block in Pocket Edition, which is set to have the info update block texture.

Aquatic Update Items and Blocks#

In the files, there are some textures with the names of blocks from Update Aquatic such as coral, suggesting that the update was planned to be released, although this is unlikely because it stopped being updated after around 1.9 (the Combat Update).

Unused Skin Pack#

The game's files contain all of the skin packs that were in Pocket Edition Alpha 0.15.4, including the Minecraft: Story Mode skin pack, which is not available in this version of the game.

Unused Textures#

As in Pocket Edition Alpha 0.15.4, the default Minecraft texture pack contains some textures for things that were not in the game yet (such as written books), and the City and Plastic texture packs have even more (such as armor stands).

Regional Differences#

In the Japanese version of the game, The main differences is the logo and the use of a different font.
