Can you please be more specific on which 2DS you are talking about? And why not get a N3DS instead?

Hi thank you for your response m8

I'm talking about the FTR-S-BCAA model

I don't wish to get the N3DS or N3DS XL solely because the 2DS has a more retro look. I also find it a grippier more comfortable device. Yes the super stable 3D is gone for me. but that's okay..

If you're planning on hacking your 3DS, you are really going to regret not getting a N3DS. Especially if you have the budget to do so. With a N3DS you can play PSX games at a decent fps and pretty much anything that came before that at 60fps. A 2DS will barely be able to play GBA games at full speed. The aesthetic isn't worth it.

But what about the firmware for the FTR-S-BCAA 2DS model? :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:

Stop trying to sell the N3DS to me you shady insurance guy

Well, if it's a relaunch, it might be above 10.7, probably 11.0.
We can't just do magic and get the firmware without seeing it : p

Get a old MK7 bundle, most of them come with 6.x.
(tho mine was 10.6)

RTM. Go to the retroarch thread and read the instructions for setting up psx.

No, there is no way to fully know the firmware of a sealed unit.

If the system was manufactured prior to 10.7 (manufacturer date on the box usually) then you'd know for use. Otherwise there is no way to fully know without turning it on.

If you know the serial number of the actual unit you can work out what firmware its on.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
