Hardware [QUESTION] Are the new 2DS XL systems placed on shops the latest firmware version?

[ROMANREIGNS599]

So I am asking this because I gotta hack it and it should be below 11.3. So I don't really go out to shop nor I know the "system" in shops and I was wondering that when customers buy it and the newly manufactured come, are they on the latest firmware?
I really don't wanna mess up and waste my money by buying with the latest version, I am not rich
Please help me

Thanks

I don't know it that will ever be released, but if it does, you can use the same methods to hack

Ok, one more thing. Is any thing like R4 card or gateway required to install freeshop after installing fbi in 11.4 or above? Cause I live in like a country where these things don't ship but handhelds etc are available

Well you do need a cheap flashcard for the initial ntrboot installation, but after that you don't need a card

When Nintendo releases it. NTRBoot is a bootrom exploit and can't be blocked by ANY OFW update. The only way to stop this exploit is with completely new hardware, to which the 2DS XL is using the same hardware as the new3DS. Which means it has the same bootrom and exploits related to that bootrom.

But I googled so much and every one was like "you can't"

Well then you found some out of date links. Google doesn't always provide the most up to date information.

You will need to buy a cart and have a method in order to flash it. There are actually several methods in order to do this and all of them are listed in The Guide. You can also buy a cart and have someone exploit it for you from this link

Dude, I can't. I am so heart broken right now

The other methods are hardmods and or buying an old2DS, hacking that, and preforming a dsiwarehax through a system transfer.
None of the 3 main methods can be blocked by Nintendo.
You can also send your system our to be hardmodded

There is always the option of sending your console for a modder, look around here, you'll find one
