I thought you were kidding.
Then I laughed.

I believe the image he's talking about is this:

From sites im reading it's confirmed fake though.

Your image was made from this one. 2 sites i was just on (one in chinese and the other in spanish) were talking about it.

I believe the image he's talking about is this:

i think that pic is fake since the circle pad is blue

only the E3 Display models had blue circle pad

Spoiler

E3 model

public models

see its grey not blue

Yea it is fake. They used a picture of a Chinese/Jap 3DS and photoshopped the top and bottom. The reason they made it all blue was so no one would see the Letters where the "3D On and OFF" switch was, also to make the bottom screen look less fake. Whoever made that blue garbage photoshopped the already photoshopped piece of shit(see my above image) i posted.

The picture is faked but the Gateway is still unconfirmed right?

Gateway was confirmed months ago. It shipped on Saturday, and according to Devin, one person already has it.

They shipped the review units. They don't actually ship it to individuals who aren't designated reviewers. How often do you hear of mail arriving the next day when it was supposed to arrive in 3-5 business days? In the next few days, that one will increase.

Unless they have sent 50 / 60 reviewers empty boxes there should be confirmations before end of next week at the latest.

Hello, I had a talk on IRC and did a quick view on what this 6.2 firmware updated. I think it's a massive clue to how the Gateway is operating; The firmware modules updated WiFi things as you'd expect.. and THE DSI FIRMWARE! The blue card i believe spoofs a DSi-enhanced game (doubles as a way to get around the flashcart check if so ), the DS mode 'installer' puts something along these lines on the real SD http://drunkencoders.com/2009/08/dsi-hack-update/ - tells you to reboot, the cart has been told to boot into DSi mode now, and executes the savegame hack!

There must be some reason DSi mode is then some way tricked into jumping into 3DS mode protected memory, that part we can only speculate on (prehaps similar to how the Gamecube memory allowed the Wii to be hacked). So the entire hack is possibly 3 different exploits in a way -> (DSi kernel, priviledge escalation twice to 3Ds user then 3DS kernel).

So the 'entry point' they talked about, indeed would not have been blocked until yesterday (just after the review units have been sent out no less). The reason it's limited to only 4.5 is because 5.0 patched multiple kernel level vulnerabilities .. but this means the possibility of Gateway having up to 6.1 support is not unfeasible prehaps and shouldn't be written off, very interesting..

Also it would explain why they originally said nothing about 5.0 not working.. they probably do have 2/3 of the steps needed and maybe even were running games in their 1 game per SD method on 5.0, it possibly doesn't require to go above usermode... once 6.0 dropped they were caught by surprise, when they could have been compatible with all firmwares. So they changed plan.

Hope that all makes sense but i believe it's a good more accurate guess at what is going on and the confusion behind their decisions.

Devin should track carefully the delivery number ! Knowing UPS, the guy will park at the corner, sneaking at your door and then put their damn missing delivery ticket saying they MISSED YOU even though you passed all day wandering in the living room waiting for something.

I don't know how UPS operates in Mali, but I think Devin'll be just fine.

Dude, I am in MD right now and they already did it to me twice ...

Lol this sounds personal for you. If its that serious, sit in your bushes and when he comes up to the door hogtie him and take everything in the truck.

same in brazil

The wait is killing me and I have FW 6 installed already but I have faith they're gonna get it hacked soon, is there a way to turn off updates on my 3DS? Are there any disadvantages like not being able to go online or play some games?

Also it would explain why they originally said nothing about 5.0 not working.. they probably do have 2/3 of the steps needed and maybe even were running games in their 1 game per SD method on 5.0

Wait they already found a way to get multiple Roms to work on a single SD?

 

[Saturosias]

(I)s there a way to turn off updates on my 3DS?

Turn your wireless switch off, as has been said many, many, many times?

Not as far as their announcements are concerned, no.

But I play online with my friends sometimes, will I not be able to play online with my rightfully owned games if I get Gatedway 3DS? Not that it's a big price compared to what I will get in turn
