Hi,
Just downgraded my 3dsXL EU from 9.2 to 4.5 WITHOUT owning a Gateway Card.

The process went fine but now i get this error message when playing legit Eshop downloaded games:
"The SD Card was removed. Press the Home button to return to the home Menu"

Also when i started for the first time Mii plaza i got the message "Mii plaza data are corrupted..."
and i lost all my previous Streetpass hits.

The question:
Is this normal or maybe something went wrong during the downgrade process?

Thx. Now back to waiting to get my Gateway card shipped : D

this is actually normal. I would''ve recommended waiting for your gateway card because you could've formatted your emunanad and had all of your previous games right on your emunand along with a working eshop.
I do believe you should be able to upgrade back to your old sysnand though if you hold up when you select the downgrade option

You dont meet the minimum required firmware for that title thats what it means

Your saves and everything are still there dont fret

Street pass was "corrupt" for me aswell but I updated again using a game and my miiplaza was fix

So what's your advice?

1) Go back to my 9.2 sysnand and then, when i get my Gateway, downgrade and format the emunand?
2) Simply wait for the Getaway to apply the Blue Card exploit?

Thx to all : D

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon

    Too bad Excite Truck wasn't multi player :(
