2012 or 2013 on the box?Just bought a new red/black XL at retail the other day, they come with 4.3 or 4.4.
Unless someone opened up the box and updated, yeah.Anything 2012 is good? Flame Red discontinued in 2012, so it should be good, right?
Anyone know when the Super Mario 3D Land bundled system was discontinued? Can I assume that was before 2013 as well?
Dec 2012
Yes. Early 2013s are 4.5 as well, up until like March or something.So I'm safe there, right? ANYTHING before 2013 is safe?

If you can find a Mario Kart XL bundle those were stopped at the end of 2012 as well.....mine came with something 4.x and I bought is in April.....Sadly I had to update it to do the transfer from my original 3DS....which I then traded...but then I found a guy on Craigs List with a NIB launch fricking black 3DS that sold it to me for $100....it had v1.0 I have a lot of games so I used Luigi DM to update it to 4.5. Now I am keeping that XL on 5.1 with the hope that gateway gets 5.x and 6.x working but I have my doubts so I am happy I got a deal on the cosmo unit. Also even though 5.x appeared in March/April I don't think Nintendo started shipping it on units until closer to June....the first known units to show up with 5.1 in the USA where the AC bundles and even the recently released black XL is shipping with 5.1 and not 6.x.
And we haven't had 5.1 update on a game until Dream Team.
