According to the R4iSDHC homepage:

http://www.r4i-sdhc.com/

"Important: R4i-sdhc 3DS support 3DS V3.0 perfectly"

Er, ok... but there is no new firmware to download! But hopefully this means it is on the way.

So i am the unlucky one. Maybe its good idea to add some new info into the topic?
saddly yes
i have added info to front page about your issue
hopefully they will sort it soon as there is a topic on supercard about some people having issues and others not
Hey, buddy! I just reupdated my dsone with file from this page http://eng.supercard...lution/znsj.htm . Now my 3DS thinks that is the SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES instead of CHESSMASTER, but most importantly now its working again! So you can update info again.

thanks

yes i did the upgrade ages ago and it worked on version 2.2.0-4 (did it through Mario Kart)

if i try to do the upgrade again (on a DSL) then the start button is not there which i assume is correct as there is no upgrade

but as soon as i upgraded to the new 3 firmware it gives an error

its just that someone else reported that it was blocked as well so i assumed that it was
i take it then that yours works ok ?

Thanks

I don't even show the option to upgrade with the r4i-sdhc 3DS. It just gives my current version in the top box and there's no start button available!? I wish for this to get sorted out or someone gives info on how they got it to upgrade to 3.0.0-5. Thank you if you do.

Update: I just tested the card on a DSi 1.4.3 (no update option), DSi XL 1.4.1 (no update option), and a 3DS 3.0.0-5 (no update option) Time 8:30 a.m. CST (-6)

I know a lot are asking/confirming which cards work - but here's a question....as quoted in first post
meet new Miis through wi-fi, as opposed to passing them
so with 'Spotpass Mii's' - How do we receive them ??

Do we have to play a [3DS] game online with 'friends' to get them (e.g mario kart),
Have FC in our list & get them if/when they switch on their 3DS the same time as you,
or
Will we just receive a random Mii when walking around & passing any [unlocked] WiFi routers ??

I think people are still trying to figure this out.
Hopefully when those details are confirmed he'll just clarify in the first post, or link to the info.
I've not received the Miis of my distant 3DS friends so far (even when we were online simultaneously), but I dont have any multiplayer games yet to test that first idea of yours. Even though I've definitely enabled Spotpass in Mii Plaza on both of my 3DS units, I'm still only seeing streetpass Miis. I'm sure by the time I notice something different happening, others will have already figured it out and commented about it though.

My r4i-sdhc 3DS still don't play on 3.0.0-5 Pong and I did the 1.47b update to 1.48b through wifi. Then I tried to update again but there is no option. I think the "U" firmware might need an update?

Same here, for me r4i-sdhc does NOT work on 3.0 and does not display an update when plugged into a DSL. Latest 1.48b firmware.

    @BigOnYa, and since the default emulator is below average i downloaded some "replacements" like snes9x for snes games for example

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    And I also have my ps3

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea ps3 is a beast still to today compared to most "sticks"

    If you just want pi for emulation no point when Anbernic releases new shit every two seconds
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man hole, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it
