3DS firmware update - 7.1.0-14U now available

[Presentum]

So, should i just update my emunand from GW3D 4.5 to 7.0.14? In case a new update comes out? ;-;

if you guys stop updating your dsi's and 3ds's you shouldn't have to worry about what cards are and what cards are not blocked. I mean If you don't want to worry about your flash cards from being blocked stop updating your systems. figure out whats more important. the flashcards or what you can do with the system legally. I personally don't plan on updating my system past 4.5 regardless. but to each their own.

Perhaps stupid q, but can I disable updates on my 3DS? I guess some future games might not work? I've just got a 3DS this week and haven't figured it all out yet.

I'm only planning on using a flash cart when they support big micro SD and multiple games. The idea is to have a 64Gb SD and a few games on there so I dont have to carry a bunch of carts around. Until then, I'll just use the originals.

disable the wifi from your 3ds or dsi system if you want to play a game using the gateway card it will spoof the 3ds rom into thinking it has the right firmware. but if you put a retail card in and you are at a 4.1 to 4.5 and it needs to be 6.2 for example which is what Zelda a link between worlds then it will update your system nand using the firmware on the retail game card and then your gateway card wont work until gateway can get the right updates for the card. so if you really want to play 3ds roms and you want to play Zelda stick to the rom files.

The update improved miiverses speed when posting and browsing the initial miiverse load up is about the same sofar that's the improvement I noticed which makes miiverse more enjoyable but it is still not as fast as Wii u or browser versions but it's a start

Nintendo likes to stick to what makes them different then, they could just say here's 7.1 and skip putting the .0 on the end since we all know they won't ever put something in place of that zero, they could just put something like 7.1 rev 2 if they ever actually do need something in place of that one zero to show it's the second revision or something of the such xD

To be fair the 14 actually means something completely separate from the main number (7.1.0), and three places for version numbers is not exactly unheard of. My Firefox is currently on 25.0.1. Chrome is on 31.0.1650.63 m.

The last number is the quantity of updates of the eShop and I also think that last zero is pointless for the 3DS firmware.

It's not, it's used for VERY minor fixes. I think back in the day we had a 1.1.1 or something.

It IS a bit pointless, and those N.N.1-NNX firmwares must be preloaded for brand new 3DSes. By the way, when I said last number I meant the "14" of the current firmware (in case you didn't get my idea).

No sense for me to update. Getting tired of updating.

 

[Skelletonike]

I always update as soon as I see an update. <3
I love updating my 3DS and making it increase a number, I always feel like she just leveled up. <3

I heard there is an update for the Youtube App as well, but I don't seem to find it... anyone can confirm, my 3DS is USA region.

I just looked it up and apparently I was mistaken. Could have sworn that last zero was actually used at some point, but yeah, it is kinda pointless then.

what the fuck. nothing like educating people who never knew what "unauthorized devices" on the 3DS are..thus making them do research..

Their numbering scheme is at least better than the 360's.

They've always doing that. I seriously doubt the number of people who do research on that are as high as you think.
