Basically, yes, unless you want to use a hardmod and go back and forth between latest and 4.X.
What's the process for hardware flashing back to an old nand backup anyway? Maybe this will be an option in the future if it were possible to flash a backup nand simply through software

I'm sure gateway is confident or else they wouldn't be posting an update on their website.


That's not entirely true when comes to Marketing statement... in the background possibly the contrary..

but to keep the current on-going sales not dropping, they (must) released that statement....

A Anti-Pirate protection is successful, if it stops most People from stealing, not if it makes it completely impossible.

PS3 and 3DS are good examples. I guess it will become harder in the future. I can hardly imagine that PS4 and Xbox One get hacked (soon).

I am certainly not missing out on the eShop because there is nothing good on there. I'll update my Japanese 3DS when Smash comes out.

No reason to doubt them is there? What marketing....it's not like they are a really company.

I'm really annoyed with these updates that just "fixes stability"... I wish they could state what they did a little more in depth like steam does for example.
"Fix buffer overflow from malformed voice packets", "Fix handling of corrupt data during downloads", "Fixed several small memory leaks in the Steam client" etc... Those are GOOD changelogs.. "Improved stability" is not.

If they were specefic people would just start looking for exploits in the older firmwares.

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    He put it down when the 3ds came out
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
