YEF1009 is one of those that got released on day one which comes with 9.0. 9.6 came in late March which is more than a month after the N3DS got released, so it's updated.

Just found a black N3DS XL with QW1012. Is that possible? It's not showing up on the first page as a possible serial number...

black. I see red QW1012 is 9.0 but no black QW1012 anywhere...
I don't know its slightly risky but go for it ask if it's new and not a return, find out its return policy if you can get your money back. It has a low serial so it should be on 9.0.0-20U

Thanks, it's on ebay and I don't think the guy offers returns so I'm just going to pass rather than risking it. Thanks again!

QW1012 is between those who are at firmware 9.0. If he haven't used it then you should be safe.

Thanks guys, the listing says brand new unopened but I asked him anyway if it's been opened, used, returned, or anything else just in case. Still looking around locally for a more 100% sure purchase but might go for this one.

I have a bunch for sale with mset and cfw pre installed with ips screens if you don't feel like risking it

Thanks for the offer Ronhero but I just need something with the firmware, I already know my way a little bit around CFW and whatnot.

Anyways locally I found a brand new Majora's Mask QW4011 3DS. This is pretty much guaranteed to have 9.0 or 9.2 right? Just want to make sure, On the list QW4011 is a little all over the place.

QW4011 has been reported as an MM LE system and an MH4 UE system your taking a risk as it could be a return or refurb if its new never opened and they swear on their mums life then it's deff on 9.0.

Thanks man, yeah any way to tell if it's a return or refurb from looking at the box or am I just going to have to hope for the best? The seller claims it's brand new in box. I'm going to go check it out in person soon

Yeah look for the slightest finger prints and when you boot it try to say you don't want it OR sell it for profit since its rare.

Great thanks! He did say again that it's brand new, non refurbished, non returned, etc etc but I asked if I could boot up and check the firmware just in case. Hopefully it all works out!
