Thank you for your answer.
Sorry I guess I'm a noob. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I downloaded the file and got this:

3DNUS file.PNG

At obj - debug I found the 3DNUS.exe file. I opened it and did this:
3DNUS.PNG

I don't know why I can't say to what it has to change the numbers and I have no idea what it can do.

I'm completely new with Gateway and the 3DS, I only had an R4i card for my DSi. Isn't there a tutorial I can watch or some complete instruction for dummies?

You just flash a small part of the 1.0 firmware to your console - the flashcard blocklist. You could download the remaining CIAs of the firmware with UpdateCDN or 3DNUS (only from FW >=2.x), and flash them all to downgrade, if you wanted (Just be careful for bricks).
No, that won't work on n3DS and it will brick him 100% guaranteed. Why would you even suggest that? There's no reason anyone would want to downgrade to 1.0.

Oh, right. Thank you for your quick answer.

Now I got this
3DNUS 1.8.PNG

So that worked. (I still have no idea what I just did)
You said "then simply install the CIA with any installer".
I found the file right here:

.cia file.PNG

I need to install it, but with what? I don't think I have something on my pc to install it

EDIT: And I read a lot of DevMenu / BigBlueBox. Do I need something like that?

I've always wondered, what would stop us from installing the cia file via Emunand then booting classic mode to try use the blue card? would it work?


Nope. DS and GBA mode don't work in emuNAND, never have. Something to do with patching TWL_Firm iirc.

I did email gateway about it though and they told me they're working on it for people not using the DS profile exploit so you never know it might be possible someday

I just suggested that it'd be possible (At least on o3ds), to expand my explanation by giving an example. Just to make sure I'd be understood correctly.

I put the BigBlueMenu.cia on the SD card in my DS and the BigBlueMenu.3ds on the SD card in my Red Gateway card. I installed BigBlueMenu with Title Manager. Now I put the 0004800F484E4841.cia on the SD card in my DS and imported it with the Title Manager.

I think I just have to convert .nds games to .cia and import it with Title Manager. If I'm right, is there an easy way to convert .nds to .cia?

Sounds like you are on track. I don't think there is an easy way but have heard it is easier than it used to be. I find the easiest way is to just download already made cia files. Of course not every game is available as cia but most are.

I've been searching for a site to download those, but I can't find any. Do you know one?

You can't do that, just use the blue card for ds games.


But how do I do that? When I put the blue card into my New 3Ds, it says there's an error and I have to shut down the console...

These are the files I got on the SD card of the blue gateway card:

Are you sure you used a micro-sd card without emunand for the cia installation ?


What I did was putting the .cia file of BigBlueBox on the SD card of my New 3DS and the BigBlueBox.3ds on the SD card of my Red Gateway card. Then I started up Cubic Ninja, put the Red Gateway card in my DS, boot gateway mode and installed the BigBlueBox.cia. Next I installed the 0004800F484E4841.cia.

Did I do something wrong?

You didn't understand my post. Did the micro-sd card (the console one, not tge gateway one) you used to install the cia has an EmuNAND on it ? It shouldn't, so if yes, retry with another micro-sd card (with juste the launcher.dat and the cia file)

The SD card is named Gatewaynand and these are the files that are on it:
sd card 2.PNG

So I got another SD card and put the launcher.dat and .cia file on it (it made the Nintendo 3DS file itself). This is what's on it now:
sd card 1.PNG

When I put the Blue Gateway Card in my DS, it still gives an error

It's working! I had to install the .cia on my New 3DS with another SD card in my 3DS that has not emunand on it. Reboot, and it works!
Thank you for the help guys!

    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.

    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double

    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in

    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
