NIM server service "nim:s"

Command Header	Description
0x00060080	The input at cmdreq[1-2] is an u64 titleID. This writes an u8 to cmdreply[2]. It's unknown what exactly the eShop application uses this for, it only uses this command for apps which are installed(checked via AM probably). In those cases, it seems the outval for this command(with result-code=0) is normally 0?

kagiya server

The nim system module communicates with a server called kagiya (kagiya-ctr.cdn.nintendo.net or kagiya-dev-ctr.cdn.nintendo.net for development units). It provides the 9.6 crypto seed in binary form for any given title ID under (HTTPS) kagiya-ctr.cdn.nintendo.net/title/0x%16llx/ext_key?country=%s, where %16llx is the title ID and %s is a country code as used in the eShop.

New3DS

NIM module only uses CheckNew3DS for determining what heap sizes to use, in two functions. One is for the size of the 0x08000000 vmem heap, the other is probably for some buffer allocated on that heap. The New3DS version of these sizes are 0x1C000-bytes larger than the Old3DS sizes here.
