Since the Sky3DS limit is unnecessary I was wondering if they'd ever release a Sky3DS 2.0 with no limit in order to compete with Gateway's 9.20 exploit.

If there was no limit I'd get one. Plug + play with no worry about exploits or emunand or anything would be worth the premium to me.

What do you think?

Nah, probably because of the whole region-locking thing, if that could be overcome and with a cheaper price, then maybe.

- No region free
- Can't play eshop games
- Takes like a minute to swap a game via button
- "Homebrew"

While I may consider getting one, these are major deal breakers for me that warrant the use of a gateway.

No i still prefer Gateway. Sky 3ds doesnt have a good multirom feature, imagine pressing that button 100 times

As a >4.5 owner and if Gateway can't deliver I would certainly consider it. Though no menu is certainly a pain.

The cost of a Gateway and a 4.5 is about $300 vs $100 for sky.

If I was starting with nothing I would go 4.5 or N3DS + Gateway.

I don't like the way you switch games (takes too long, 1 by 1), though if it were the only method of playing games (with no limit) then yes I would consider buying one.

Unfortunately for sky3ds, Gateway offers too much more compared to sky3ds for a cheaper price.

Not everyone needs region-free, I know I sure won't. If its able to load roms, so far to be proven to work on FW 9.3, it'll work.

It doesn't do anything but emulate carts, 1 at a time. I mean, it has multirom, but even that's as slow as switching out actual carts. It's just a piracy machine.
