Hello, I have a 2DS USA with Luma installed and I would like update a Japanese 3ds game that I have. When I am on the main menu, there is an option for me to update the software when I click on the game. How ever when I click on it, it requires me to update my system itself.

Is there a way to update my Japanese 3ds games on an outdated firmware as I want to stay on 10.3? Thanks.

Go to that iso site and find the update in .cia form and install the .cia. That's your only option. Also, why are you still on 10.3? It's safe to update.

Well, both systems either need to be on 11.1 or you use ctr-httpwn through the Homebrew Launcher on the 10.3 system.

I thought CIAngel could download out of region updates.
freeShop can download updates if that title keys site has it uploaded.

well not for nothing is there a specific reason you out of region games?
Some games are JPN Only such as Love+, some games in JPN doesn't have English language such as Bravely Second... ETC.
And he doesn't want to buy a new console. Since CFW Only allow cross region play. He came to ask about updating.

Since my question is related, I decide to ask it here.
I have JPN 3DS with Luma3DS, and I would like to play legit cartridge version of USA Bravely Second.
Can I use Ciangel to download only an update, not the whole game cia?

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
