Using it to emulate OOT? >< No but really, I've bought one for myself mainly because OOT and CN. When a CN CFW that has a working emunand gets released I'll probably stick with Sky/CN.

SKY will be used for all my offline games on SYSNAND and to emulate OOT for the exploit. Gateway will be for online games and DLC :D

Anyone else have issues with the N3DS not coming out of sleep? 2 times tonight i have had games downloading whilst in sleep when and when ive gone to open the N3DS the screens dont come on??

just like you i was downloading some things and when i opened it it took a moment for the screen to come back up then after that i booted a game up and the 3d was being very odd and wouldn't stabilize but a reboot fixed it.

Can someone confirm if I could use one GW for both old and new 3DS
I mean are they share the same FPGA update or each console requires
its specific FPGA update

At the moment I have 1 o3DS and 3 N3DS and 1 gateway. Working on all of them. :). (More on order)

If you install your games as cia on one system then you only need the GW inserted to run the exploit so you could have both systems running games at the same time. Realize all the GW is now is a DRM dongle and adapter for mSD, GW isn't going to make any money selling pirating software to pirates. :)

I haven't seen it discussed much here but I can confirm the 3.1 launcher works on the O3DS but you still have to run the browser exploit, OOT doesn't work for me on the O3DS and probably isn't meant to.

Noob question, can anything ever go wrong from installing .CIA files?? Like can it brick the nand potentially like .wad files can for Wii if done incorrectly?

Yep, but in emuNAND, worst case scenario is that you format your SD card.

Just don't install cia's from sketchy sources.

I remember Cearp saying no. I supose there is if you obtained a malicious one say from a torrent. Hopefully you know the first thing you do after launching the exploit for the first time is make a Sysnand backup and store it in multiple locations.

You know where to go for such things, correct?

Is it only me, or Gateway 3.1 screwed activity log on N3ds?

:(
I played many games.... but it shows only settings (all day?!)
Well that's better than nothing. For me activity log hangs at loading screen on emuNAND new 3DS. Yes, Gateway definitely screwed up activity log.

well installing cia files to sysnand can be dangerous, basically only install stuff to sysnand that you got from a reliable source, it would be fairly simple to make a cia file that overwrites important firmware files effectively bricking sysnand

its easier to warn everyone not to do something than explain how or why it could go wrong if they blindly install anything they find into sysnand, all it takes is for one idiot to upload something with a nice name like say "OOT clean and legit rom (which doesnt exist), and instruct people to install it to sysnand on their nice new 3DS and it basically overwrites a key part of the FW.....so again, dont blindly trust random cia files to be installed to sysnand, if anything unbelieveable come up like "super duper CFW hax with all da roms.cia" do not run it until its confirmed legit/safe by someone with a hardware mod who can recover from a brick

I have original 3ds xl, and the activity log of sysNand is showing a infinite loop while the emuNand activity log is normal. This started around Gateway 2.0

Trying to figure out what to do. I have a pal N3ds xl, and o3ds my girlfriend has an o3dsxl. I've been wanting to get her a flashcart so she can play whatever she wants (preferably gateway) but I waited until something happened with the n3ds. I'm wondering if I should buy a SKY for myself to primarily use on my n3ds for my games offline as someone mentioned in this thread, then use that to emulate OoT and use my gateway when I want to play something online, then my girlfriend could use the GW card for anything she wants. My only concern is the 2 of us not being able to play games online together at the same time without 2 gateways. Do you guys think there's any chance of GW not needing another game on the n3ds ever or is this really my best/most cost effective way without buying another gateway and a pal version of OoT?

3.1 was released 4 months after the the initial video claiming new 3ds support.

make of that what you will, the next exploit discovery is not a predictable thing

You can install .cia games on emunand and play them with just a single gateway cart

So, through e-mail, Gateway said people who doesn't have the GW3D probably have fake cards, even when you confirm it passed all the tests they gave, and also that the same card on an old 3DS with a Micro-SD adaptator give the GW3D xD

I remembered them that on their teaser video, they had emunand and no GW3D, so it seems they made a video with a fake card !

And I don't really see the link between a fake card and the GW3D missing, as emunand is working perfectly fine even without the GW3D, seems they are a bit touchy with bugs when you report them xD

Wow then there sure are a shit ton of fake Gateways floating around from official resellers!

Can you post that email, would love to see it.
