Hello all, I have a question regarding my 3DS unit. I have tried to keep up with the 3DS flash cart/homebrew scene, but it's all really a blur for me. As I understand it, units between 4.1-4.5 seem to have some sort of exploit that lets flash carts function. I have a unit that is currently on 4.3.0-6U, and while I don't plan on getting a flash cart immediately, I do plan on getting one soon. Anyhow, fortunately or not, I am getting a Pokemon X/Y game for Christmas, and would like to play it on my unit. I' m guessing the stock firmware on the cart is >4.5, but would rather not let the present sit and gather dust. Without a flash cart, is there any sort of information or exploitation that would allow me to have the information/exploit I need, even with the update from the game's cartridge. I'm going to guess that any exploitations or unsigned software comes from an exploit within the flash cartridges themselves, and that I'm up a creek. I'll likely just update and cross my fingers that an exploit comes out for newer firmwares, but I figured that I should ask before blindly diving into the update.
