Yeh, Gateway could have been a bit more helpful with their emails but all they've said is that they're working on N3DS support, like Breith said it's not like they officially announced something on their page then never delivered, they simply are taking longer
than usual due to the mii issue thing
I understand that you're invested in their company and the product you've purchased but now you're just victim blaming. Gateway have strung a shit load of people along with their lousy correspondence and misleading information. People asked a multitude of very specific questions regarding N3DS support, about how the exploit works and a plethora of other concerns and we just got 'Soon' back from them.

They fucked up and they've seen business lost to SKY. Hopefully that will help them improve in future or they'll definitely be left in the dust when DSTwo arrives.

What your saying makes no sense. What misleading information have they given us? They are not obligated to give inside information on future updates.
They released the 9.2 update, and it works flawlessly even though it's still in beta. I expect that they will eventually do the same for N3DS.

I've just bough mh4 from ebgames. Now I'm updating my n3ds. Bye bye!

As I said, I'm waiting for the GW "announcement" to do the same, if their announcement says "the update is here now" or "within a few days" great, but if it's "it will take a very long time" then I go legit with my New 3DS. So I understand your choice, I'm just waiting a little bit more!

GW promised N3DS support, showed a video of their card running on a JP N3DS, claimed soon, replied to emails saying it would come out soon, all in early NOVEMBER. Do you understand what means for a company to make a promise like that? They have obligations to their customers; brand loyalty is THE thing a company should care about the most, it's the sole reason companies like Apple are still successful even after rehashing the same shit over and over. If you can't understand this, I'm sorry for you. Maybe you don't work hard enough for your money to realize how important it is to make companies uphold their promises.

What are you trying to prove? The facts are on the table already, a few days/weeks on each announcement don't change a thing. I don't have anything to prove to you. If you're not a smart consumer then I'm sorry for your loss.

Here, have an official GW COOKIE (tm), dated December 24th:

>>WITHIN DAYS


The facts are on there site, they posted up about the support on 11/14, they then posted a video on 11/30. AGAIN INCORRECT TIME AND NOT ALL WITHIN THE FIRST HALF OF NOVEMBER.

edit: Here you go. Just love how people like to mix shit up, hilarious. Its as if its going to help or solve anything.

Maybe he wants plays on his NNID profile, maybe he wants download demo and games he bought before on the eShop, etc etc!
Yep, I want to play online... I'm playing on 9.0 now because I'm still at the train :P

I do have eshop content BUT on my american account. Now I'm living in Australia and I have an Australian n3ds... I don't understand why Nintendo doesn't allow me to switch my region. I hate that.

You are shitting me right?

Until the actual release for 9.2 came out, we had no idea there was a difference between the firmwares of the old 3DS and the New 3DS. We didn't know it was a different entry point or exploit.

I have an email from January 17 asking specifically about New 3DS support and they said they would specify a release timeframe a few days later, and nothing. We got a manual update. Yay.

They're a company, they buy and sell a product to online retailers in order to turn a profit from the software they've developed and hardware they've compiled from Chinese parts.
I understand that you're invested in their company and the product you've purchased but now you're just victim blaming.

They were going to release N3DS support sooner, but they found out that the exploit they used broke Miis and games that use them, so they had to switch to the browser exploit, which slowed them down significantly. Announcing your plans and then being forced to change them by an unforeseen eventuality isn't lying.

I still have my Gateway tucked away but I'll never recommend it to anyone until SKY shuts down or is blocked. Asshats can't conduct business properly.
So you would instead recommend people a flashcart by a team that is willing to screw their customers with low and dirty tactics such as putting an artificial 10 games limit in their product? That's so reassuring :rolleyes:

by the way any news about the announcement ? can you not contact them to find out what's going on ? we are not asking for much it's only an announcement !!

Have you heard anything from GW lately? Like I Posted, seems like they have fallen off the grid. Nothing since the 9th. Granted, they still have a while, but it is only hurting them more by not communicating what is happening.

Since the emails are normally handled by one of sales ladies, and since nothing is shipping out to resellers until CNY is over, and really their 'sales' email is just that, you most likely will not see any replies to their email until after the CNY break is over, and things start moving again in few more days.

See this chart for more info, on when things get back to work:

Personally, I heard from them as late as Feb. 18th, my main contact, but he is not the coder just the team leader, and didn't give me any clue on what is happening, we only discuss other important business matters.

Last week I was told they would make an announcement soon, but I guess that 'soon' is not here yet, so wait....
