Wait you can play the leak online now? SO I DELETED THE LEAK FOR NOTHING? F*ck me and my smart brain
Yeah the leak is just a cartridge dump and any .CIA install uses your cartridges header, not a private one. Basically, Nintendo can't tell if it's dumped from a cartridge or installed from the eShop. (Unless of course you dump a game that only had a physical release).

It should be .gq cause everytime I cfw my friends ds'es, I download the title keys from .gq

Yes haha, what you need is the seed from Nintendo's server, which should have been released now since the game can be purchasable from the eShop.

I just downloaded Ultra Sun the other day from freeshop and everything went fine on my end. Maybe try re-installing the application.

The leak one is a Golden Seed Master (GSM), that means the Official Games released before or dumped from a day-one break shop. The definition of leaked is that.

I've seen that "Golden Master" term before... for Macs when the firmware was leaked or released at day one.

THIS IS ALL CONFUSING!
Can I have detailed instructions on what to do?
You've just to re-download it from freeShop, as we said before. It's the same game, but now you're safe because the game was official release in all country by Nintendo ;)

Yep ahah, it's a common word in IT world. The GM is the Original release leaked few days before, so if you check the Serial ID you could confirm that is the same (for macOS fw, or anything else).

Its .gq as I predicted. I've deleted the tickets for USUM via FBI and will install Ultra Moon (the one I want) from freeShop tomorrow as its like 9PM where I am (Australian time).
I'll come back with results tomorrow.

Don't forget to import the seed from Ninty's server. (for unlocking purposes if it's still the preload)

Well you guys are half right. If OP EVER installed the pre-load and used the "dummy seed" to play early, they will have to import the official seed after installing it from freeshop even after deleting the title and ticket. There is no way to remove the seed once it's imported, even reinstalling the game will result in it using the last seed manually injected. So yes, it is 100% necessary to import the seed if you ever used the "dummy version" on the leaked .CIA after having installed the pre-load.

@ashudow You only had the leaked version or did you have the preload before ?

You're right, the seed was inject instead of .cia, that was installed only.

Either way it's easy to determine. If you load the game and get an Arm 11 error or a blackscreen you need the seed; if it loads normally, obviously you don't lol.
