How did they get the rom for the game?
Possibly with custom hardware. Cartridges are essentially glorified SD cards. However, they would need a dump of the decryption key, which is not possible to obtain yet. This is most likely fake.
I don't have the know-how, why couldn't this group do what's needed to get a dump of the decryption key? What's needed to make this possible?
Two ways: undisclosed software exploit, or decapping and using an electron microscope. The former would be a world first as AFAIK no hacking group has claimed to be able to do that yet, and the latter is very expensive and extremely hard.
They didn't, and the console doesn't have a CFW to dump ROMs yet.
this is a hoax and you all are voting up this complete bullshit image
