Downloading on the 3DS has NOTHING to do with your SD card speed because NO SD card is slower than the 3DS's wireless speed. You can still download .cia files on the PC as well, transfer them to SD, and install them faster than freeshop and the like, so WTF are you talking about? Try reading the whole thread and understand the context next time.You're clearly over-exaggerating, or your SD card on your 3DS is from the stone age. You are right that it is faster to download on your PC and move files to SD card than it is to download on 3DS with freeShop, but you do realize you can download cia games just like you can download .3ds roms on your PC? You can then move those files *gasp*, to your SD card just as you would to your Gateway. Sure you'll still have to install them, but trying to justify Gateway because it saves you 2 minutes of your clearly very limited and precious time per game is retarded to say the least.
Actually, most people still use Gateway because of the real-time cheat engine. Your updated firmware gains you WHAT exactly?Your points aren't even remotely close to validating the continue usage of Gateway 3DS. Wow, you can use .3DS roms, that's all well and good. Expect you also can't update your emuNAND for months on end and often times you end up waiting so long, another update gets pushed out. But of course, that .3DS support, right?
Wrong. I'm on v2 and have Gateway and Luma as well. Not that I use Luma except for testing things...Gateway CFW lacks basic features like FIRM0/1 protect or support for any version of A9LH past V1, unless you jump through hoops to make it work.
Completely worth the cheat engine that even NTR users benefit from. Not to mention that before godmode9 and the like, it was the only foolproof way to do a FULL NAND backup and restore without a hard mod.But completely worth those few extra minutes you save copying over those .3DS roms.
Umm... you can still install the same .cia with a Gateway. And it's still faster to download with a computer first. And I can still play every game there is on 11.2. So what?So while you sit there with 11.2, I am just going to install a CIA. By the time I am done installing my CIA, you will still be on 11.2
