Since I guess this could be answered somewhere, I would like to know something before I attempt to do something that might disallow me to get gateway to work.
My current equipment:
- N3DS Zelda Black Edition with firmware 9.5.0-22E (Euro Region)
- Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of time 3D (Euro)
- Gateway Flashcart (Red & blue)
- R4i Save Dongle
My Goal:
- Play any 3DS game.
My Issue:
I have read in many threads about emunands and sysnands, but still I don't have a clear vision since I didn't experienced them yet. I had a vision that "EmuNAND" is the emulated firmware that can be upgrade it using gateway flashcart. However, I haven't read anything that allow to run that gateway from 9.5.0-xx.
I have ordered gateway for the reason I have the game "Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of time 3D (Euro)", to perform the exploit, but I wasn't sure that the exploit will not work with my current firmware (Can I be wrong on this?).
First, I just format the internal 2GB SD card to Fat32, and put the "launcher.dat" in the root of the internal SD card.
Then, I have already "Inject Gateway Save hack" into the game by using "R4i Save Dongle", and then I started the game, and loaded the "Savegame", but after the game runs, I have pressed ( A button ), the game remain running, but frozen. However, the gateway launcher didn't appeared, which it is really unexpected.
So I kept searching, and found that Sky3DS can play 3DS game offline, which I'm fine with that, but I mostly spend my money on ordering "Gateway Flashcart (Red & blue)" & "R4i Save Dongle".

So currently, I need a help by seeking for an answer for my questions:
1) Do I have wrong standards on understanding what is happening with using Gateway?
2) Is there a chance that I have done wrong step on running gateway? Are there any chance to use Gateway with my current equipment?
3) Am I recommended purchase Sky3DS to play 3DS games? should I update my N3DS to the latest version to run Sky3DS?
I really need help on this situation, I don't want to buy Sky3DS and waste my Gateway if there is a hope that I can run it.
