Hey,
My friend has a EUR n3ds at 11.0 and he found a 9.2 US o3ds for dirt cheap. he was thinking about region changing it, but i read a lot about people not recommending it, saying it can cause problems in the future etc.
He wants the US one to work fully after the region change.
What are the risks? if the process completed successfully, what problems might occur?

The question is "why?" alh9 + luma3ds and 3ds is region free.... all games of any region works....

I have a region changed JPN N3DS to US, and everything works except the eShop. This means updates also have to be done through Ciangel or something similar as it always gets an error otherwise. There may be ways around this, but I'm not aware of them.

@streetbrawler123 you should be able to play together if you both have the same region GAME, which is what should influence the systems finding each other I believe. I can play MHGen locally and online no problem, all US region carts.

Hi guys,
Regarding to the post:
The question is rather it is possible to use a region changed console (former o3ds us---> and now o3ds converted to pal) for a system transfer to a new pal console (ver. 11) with dsi exploit for downgrading, with minimum risk?

Thanks in advance :)

    @K3Nv2 what was your ps4 situation
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    did you always have a ps4 you never updated
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or were you able to get new ps4 tracking it \
    as soon as the hack was announced
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or did you have to find a used one with the lower firm ware that was not updated
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got this ps4 at launch and never updated since 9.0
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You got a good chance of buying a used one and asking the seller how often they used or even ask for a Pic of fw and telling them not to update
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Speaking of PLaystation. I see Evilnat put out a beta for PS3 CFW 4.91.2 on the 22nd.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Don't really see the point in updating it tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right, I thought about updating my PS3 CFW to 4.91, but why really, everything plays fine now. I guess for people that have already updated past 4.9 it would be helpful.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Idk if online servers are still active that would be my only thought

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Thats true, personally I don't play it online at all, in fact, I deleted all wifi details on it once I installed CFW, so it won't connect and auto-update itself
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I play most games that are on both PS3/360 strickly on the 360, but PS3 exclusives are really only games I play on the PS3 (You know me, I'm more of a Xbox junkie)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ps3 really has no titles worth going online over nps is the only reason you'd want wifi
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    what is nps?
