It used as a HMAC key to hash a file content along with another keys. I suppose that current firmwares don't check these hashes. That's why Xploder don't need your Console ID. You can check it by yourself making a different console ID and resign your save game and then try to load it. But I want to generate all hashes correctly. That's why I used all real parameters. But you can omit some of them.
