>>38388028I don't know about 3DS games, but in the GB/GBA days, games didn't crash. Why do you think RGBY can turn meaningless garbage data into semi-functional Pokemon? It's programmed to just keep going, no matter what.
There's a video where one of the programmers for Sonic 3D Blast explains that part of the certification process for Sega consoles in the 90s was to literally just leave the game running for 3 days to see if it crashed, so he put a thing in the game to redirect all unfixable errors to a level select screen. This is why you can get to the level select screen by wiggling the cartridge.
