My family is going to buy me a 3DS for my birthday (yay!) however, I know that it's not hackable as of yet. I also a bit about Nintendo's control of their firmware and updates. I've read the FAQs but I still have some questions, namely :
1. How do I know which games will update my firmware, and which version will they update it to?
2. If I never go online, Nintendo can't remotely update my firmware right?
Basically I just want to buy a couple of games to play while waiting for a reliable hack to come out, but I don't want to update my firmware past the point in which hacks won't work anymore. I'm not quite sure how things are like in the 3DS scene...I'm basing my experience on how it was with the PS3.
