Pardon my ignorance but does this second stage key need to be "leaked" by someone?


Well I have made 3 fake connections on sysnand so I am good to go regarding update nags. But basically if youre playing a game or leave the 3DS connected to the wifi when youre in sleep mode the system will download the latest update automatically and prompt you to update. So the best thing is to set some fake internet access points or turn of the internet completely.


Sounds good, when you say fake connections i'll probably setup a new invalid one (fake SSID and pass etc.)

btw can you even use existing one with wrong password

So it doesn't matter that the saves are from 4.5 sysnand?

Let me give all the facts.
Current state: old 3ds downgraded to 4.5. Emunand 9.5

If I get a 9.0-9.2 n3ds xl when gw launches support will my saves from my old 3ds system be usable on the new 3ds? I talk about rom saves only. Not retail cards

It doesn't matter.

Gateway mode (the mode than run roms) use the old encryption either on 4.5 or 9.x exploit (they probably kept the old encryption on purpose, because otherwise, everyone would have lost their saves).

The only difference is in Classic mode, where the 4.5 exploit use the old encryption, and the 9.x exploit is a newer one (and so, is able to read recent saves from retail carts), so it's only a matter for retail carts, it change nothing for the roms.

Sounds good, when you say fake connections i'll probably setup a new invalid one (fake SSID and pass etc.)

I use a real one with wrong password but the other way should works too.

Also, I have a question about Gateway on 3DS, when you switch it on/access your games/emunand Do you get prompted all the time to update? (AKA 1 wrong button and you are on firmware 9.5)


I've notice when in emunand I don't get the nag. But when I boot up to sysnand I get the nag. I'm just careful not to lend it to my cousins because they like to fuck around with me alot.

Yup, an invalid SSID one should do the trick.


Yep, my 4.2 sysnand connections look like this:

#1: SSID - 1111111
pass - 1111111

#2: SSID - 2222222
pass - 2222222

#3: SSID - 3333333
pass - 3333333

It is impossible for my sysnand to go online, and therefore cannot ever update. This is just a little extra peace of mind. :)

Yeh, when I hack my N3ds XL no one is touching that boy :D

Iwata-san and the boys at Nintendo should be proud, there are people out there who love Nintendo that much that they are willing to run every game on the 3DS on their SD Cards are willing
to go through the trouble of a possible brick to play all their Nintendo games, Gateway/Sky3ds fans = True Nintendo fans ROFL

When N3DS gets all the support etc. I will make a celebration thread!

Gateway Cashier: "Ok, so you want, Super Mario 3D Land, the special Bravely Default + Persona Q bundle half price, Resident Evil Revelations (on sale might I add), discount on Dead or alive dimensions, Kirby Triple Deluxe,
Star fox 3d, Tetris Axis, Rune Factory 4 for full price, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D, Ridge Racer 3D, All the Zelda games atm (ON SALE might I add), Sonic: Lost World, all One piece games and you want to add Zelda MM 3D and MH4 to your basket?

Me: Yes plz

Gateway Cashier: Ok, so for all these overpriced games that'll be a grand total of $/£0.00

Me: Thanks, fun shopping you :rofl2::rofl2::rofl2::rofl2::rofl2::rofl2:

Why bother :) Just use opendns to blockupdate servers. I even leave my N3DS on sleep with wifi turned on.

I don't really see what it's more bothering than the OpenDNS thing, it take like 1min to fill the three slots.

Not to mention I assume openDNS is only working at home, so if you go to a friend and have a wifi slot configured for his routeur, it's useless?

Exactly. The blocking updates method is only useful to a subset of people. Those who want to use their sysnand wifi all the time and at play at one location (where they have wifi control). For a lot of people it isn't the best option and just disabling sysnand wifi is the easiest and safest option.

Yeah :) Where I live people dont even know what Nintendo is let alone a 3DS , so I use mine at home mostly and we don't have nintendo zones here.

Meanwhile I have my sysnand wifi enabled and connected to the internet 3 years now and it never downloaded any updates...

Cool so lets hope they will keep this the same way on the new 3ds too :)
