i didnt get mine for 2weeks and 5 days in total, it was actually annoying because i offered to pay for a next day service


Who knows how long all will be waiting the Update it's self, until then unless under 3ds 4.x firmware's , it's point less for newer 3ds firmwares.

It annoying waiting that long yes, but yet no rush until out .

Although, best be four hand xd .

i already use my gateway on my 4.5.0.0E 3ds but i really want this update before january so i know if its a regular gateway card or a new gateway card that has firmware on the sd...

i only need the update so i can rip my eu estore titles from my 3ds xl and shove them on my 3ds and my N3dsXL when my xmass debts are clear and i can order a ausie one, im not trusting nintendo, i think they'l shove a slighly higher f.w on the eu pal models and hope that gateway new thing wont work, which id rather not risk

I see.


I thought the gateway cards was the gateway cards... , The GW firmware updates is so one can replace the old files with the new .

They is no newer gateway cards :huh: .


"i think they'l shove a slighly higher f.w on the eu pal models and hope that gateway new thing wont work, which id rather not risk"

Yep, I did notest BTW a very / very small Quick update, but firmware remained the same as was Ver. 9.2.0-20E :huh:

Strangely it happened when getting the Free Sonic Boom Theme , but can't remember what it asked .

I ordered mine on the 21st November.
Safe to say I have not even recieved it yet.
Still says "pending" but they've clearly took my payment.
I don't understand. Are they waiting for the 9.2.0.20 support or what?

uhhh dude you should probably contact them, you know? Why have you not done so yet, it's been almost two weeks!

I ordered mine yesterday lunchtime and it was shipped this morning. Something has obviously gone wrong with your order.

I've ordered mine very recently as well. But considering teensy was out of stock near the gateway 9.X announcement then I don't see why new3dscards could have also become out if stock but didnt detail it on their website...

Then again nosignals was shipped so yours giratina may have had a technical issue

It's charged me aswell. £61.00 roughly.
I do hope I resolve this...

Ordered from them myself a sky3ds and it took about a week to arrive, came in a padded envelope with a customs declaration form stuck to the back implying it was imported, however the postage was royal mail 24hr so not entirely sure where they come from.

likely shipped from outside the EU initially then forwarded on in the UK. I suspect the length of time it takes depends on how many they have currently on hand

it will come Royal mail 24 signed for.

Sweet! I sure hope so :)
Mine was shipped at 3am this morning along with a work colleague who has ordered one.
Itching to get it though...

I was joking after work saying "Hopefully my 3DSXL will have been sat on a shelf for a long time and will have 4.5 on it"
I booted it up to update before a new firmware comes out and was greeted by a lovely 4.5.0-10 version string :P

Its my 3 year old sons Xmas present (Which daddy will be using whenever he can :P)
Unfortunately i wont be able to play with it fully until Xmas day but the other half will let me configure it all (Parental controls, NAND Backups, Homebrew Etc)

Mine was shipped at 3am this morning too...

that's...odd. 3AM is not a time that things are dispatched via standard Royal Mail in the UK. Not a chance.

Funny how this topic has mostly attracted the English people :lol:


The site is the first on the list of official UK resellers, They ship directly from the UK and are pretty much the cheapest price available. (Without waiting months for the china snail mail express)
They are selling a decent quantity of units since the announcement and therefore alot of them will probably end up here at some point :P

Yeah i'm well aware of that. I got the e-mail at 3:05 am to say that my order has been shipped. It suggested to me that my card WAS probably coming from China (Combined with the name of the Person who sent me a Paypal invoice)

Fingers crossed i'm not waiting months.

People are aware that the Chinese can post via Royal Mail directly from China right? (I don't know how they label it but it comes through Royal Mail via airmail)
