When I press the Y button, something should show up? Nothing appears when I press it
Yeah I'm wondering this as well I hit the Y button and my screen just sits there. I hit the B button but it doesn't exit. Should I just leave it? Or restart? I'm on a 10.3J O3DS.

Erm, so I did it on my o3DS. I have a Japanese n3DS, are there any steps I must take besides deleting the specific CIA?

Yes. Do NOT try anything on your N3DS. I repeat, DO NOT TRY ANYTHING on your N3DS. It has been said multiple places that N3DS' downgrade has not been tested.

Does it matter which entry point I use? I have ninjhax available but I also have ironhax as well.

When you got stuck, did you hard reset?

Well I tried it, and no I go back and forth at being blocked either at step 5 or step 7. I only have two entrypoints, correct me if I am mistaken, browserhax, triggered by launching my browser (the bookmark is automatic) and menuhax which launches itself on boot. Those are the only two I can try without having games like Ironfall or OOT right?

Go download the old ironfall and try it with that.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
