Are you sure of that? Is it impossible to edit a save file without having the device connected to the USB port?

As far as I know, you can't do anything with a save through the Datel device unless game is inserted into it. I also don't know how to edit saves on my own. For my games and the device, I haven't used any of their "Powersaves" and instead modded the saves I already had for games. The device tells you what it is doing: Uploads save to their server, modifies it with codes, redownloads save, and then finally writes the save to game card.

So I see it works with newer games that have a newer encryption... does that mean that Datel successfully cracked it? Since any of those "power saves" have to be re-encrypted to your unique cartridge.

From the statement made by gateway 3ds: "So we left a few things out you say ? Well if it was so easy then others would have it already, or might falsely make videos of such claims .. anyway we digress .. Both nand saving, which will officially make us 100% compatible with all known roms, and FAT32 (drag and drop) based multirom support are now close to completion and entering into our internal beta testing. As you can imagine, both these features required a major revamp of our hardware's internal firmware, something we had known and planned for from day one so rest assured, unlike others, GW3DS is a fully featured and FULLY updatable hardware design. Our policy has and will always be to stick by our customers and ensure they get value for their money. We will be calling on our beta testers shortly to help us stress test our next big step !"

Does this confirm that gayeway 3ds is able to save roms that use nand saves? hence they debunked how nand saving worked?

Does Datel still support the 3DS Powersaves Device? Have not seen saves/codes yet for Zelda ALBW and as far as I know that game doesn't use NAND save, Powersaves device does detect my game card. Thoughts on this?

Datel's support is garbage. I've sent them multiple emails about different things and they always brush me off and give no info.
