^ Also interested in this. Besides the methods that have already been posted (install updates as .cia or edit the save's region to your own later on), can you actually edit the region of this release?


I guess you could just extract save with SaveDataFiler, then inject it into the US save.
Not sure if you even have to edit it.
 
technically for pokemon, it's the same rom.
They just changed the region byte in the icon so that region locked 3ds won't load,
but gateway totally bypasses that.
And the best proof for us, users, is the serial code.

Meanwhile the current dump is stated to be japanese: CTR-ECRJ, for GateWay the serial code is CTR-ECRA.

Same thing happens with X and Y dumps.
 
Doesn't work with this too, can't even create the CIA

What it does :

My keyslot should be okey as it CRC-16 matched the one given in the 3DS to CIA thread.
Guess I'll wait for AUS dump and use an header then.
 
Yeah, I successfully did it earlier.

Also, don't worry about getting saves, I have one to send to Kaphotics once he's around (and I've already successfully edited it manually).

In-semi-related news, here's a video of the new Hoopa Forme (Hoopa Unbound):





How did you hack it manually? Do you got the save for us too?

so you are saying that we will be able to update the japanese rom (as is the same worldwide) through the european eShop?

If the game ask you for an update, it´s going to send you to the japanese eshop which you cannot access. And I dont think that EUR patch is gonna work with a JAP game.

When the other regions come out, you can just extract the save with SaveDataFiler and inject it into the correct region's rom, then everything will work with the patches

Or, better yet, we can install the update of the region in question via DevMenu when its released. Either one requires a little bit of time. Im just happy its possible.
