Hacking Region Lock Removal (Gateway 3DS & Sky3DS)

[Starhowl]

1. Can someone tell me if Sk3DS does circumvent the region lock on DS, 3DS & N3DS?
2. Can someone tell me if Gateway 3DS does circumvent the region lock on DS, 3DS & N3DS?

1. sky3ds + regionthree, not working in n3ds
2. gateway is region free without any additional fix, gateway not working in n3ds

1. No, I believe Edit: oh yeah, forgot about regionthree!
2. Yes

I heard that something about the region unlocking in Gateway 3DS would brick consoles. Is this true?

no it is not. it is part of the features.

And I can load unlimited games now on Sky3DS?

Blue button sky3ds. Yes you can.

 

[Starhowl]

Is emunand possible with Sky3DS? And if so, what's the advantage?

 

[guitarheroknight]

The only thing Sky3ds is able to do is emulate 3ds roms on a specific region with a max limit of 31 games per card. So that's no emunand nor cia installation.

 

[Starhowl]

So I take it Gateway 3DS is going to be the better choice with no limit whatsoever?

yes u're right.

 

[Starhowl]

Will I have to use 2 different cards though with Gateway 3DS depending on if I'm going to play DS or 3DS games?

 

[guitarheroknight]

Nobody actually knows how the N3DS exploit works, but most probably it's gonna be via a QR code. So the only thing you need is the red card.

 

[Starhowl]

But will I still need a grey and a red card depending on if I want to play DS or 3DS/N3DS games?

 

[guitarheroknight]

The blue card is only for 4.x users and I think you wont have much use of it on the N3DS since it doesnt use the old exploit.

 

[Starhowl]

Is there speculation when Gateway 3DS will support N3DS?

 

[guitarheroknight]

There is a lot of speculation but no real date

31 limit? I'm not as familiar with Sky3DS as I am GW but is this a permanent limit like the 10 before or just 31 game limit at any one time?

- sky3ds red button = 10 games limit, can use tweak to play more than 10 games but u can only save 10 games
- sky3ds blue button = 31 games limit for each micro sd because of the bug in disk writer, however it might get fixed in new ver of disk writer.
