I succesfully applied the guide. But I have one question.
In guide
  • “Autoboot SysNAND”
selection is advised to be chosen.

Which one should you use for daily gaming or game loading usage? sysnand or emunand?
If it's emunand then why guide encourages sysnand boot?

After you've installed arm9loaderhax, you can use your sysNAND to play your games. You can also update it without any danger.

I've hacked both my O3DS as well as my N3DS with the old version of the guide some time ago. But I still had a look at the new version of the guide just for fun and I have to say everything looks even more streamlined and user-friendly then before, a great improvement for sure^^ Thanks for all the hard work you've put into this guide, I really appreciate it :)

Since you're on 9.9 (-26 being the browser version) you might have a dummy browser.

First, block the DNS on the console Internet configuration with the Tubehax DNS.
  1. On your 3DS, open the System Settings app, then go to Internet Settings and Connection Settings. From there, select your favorite Connection, tap the Change Settings button, and on the second page head over to the DNS section. Once there, select "No" for "Auto-obtain DNS", and under Detailed Setup, enter the following address : 107.211.140.065.
  2. Save these new settings and close the System Settings app.
See if you can use the internet browser on your console.
If yes, then you have a browser. Follow the guide accordingly.

If you don't have a working browser, you have to get another homebrew entrypoint (with a CART).
Just follow the guide but the No-Browser version of it.

So is it possible to take a second card and install an emuNand on it, then downgrade it, and dump in otp.bin from it, then pop in the original SD card and A9LH with that otp from there? All without ever downgrading the sysnand?

The only downside of the new site is now it doesn't display when it was last edited anymore.

The last number denotes a browser. So, you can use it.

    they need to have a strong line up on the launch titles too. I think they should move metroid prime 4 to the next console because by now it has been quite a while and there's no release date scheduled yet

    well as far as metroid prime 4 is concerned, the next system probably is similar enough to the current gen they can probably easily just slap it onto a next gen cart and call it good :P
