Hi Tempers,

As the title says I have 2 3DSes and only 1 Gateway (I have Cubic ninja and OOT too). I want to run one on CFW with cold boot and one on Gateway. I have an O3DS 4.2u and a N3DS 9.0u. I want to know a few things:

Should I update the O3DS to 9.2 to use homemenuhax and a CFW with cold boot then run the N3DS with the Gateway? Any drawbacks to updating?

Should I use the N3ds with cold boot CFW for EMU nand and go gateway on the O3DS?

Which CFW has the best compatibility? Rx-tool,cakes,rei or other?

What do you think is the best solution to getting both systems on EMU nand without changing carts?

Thank you to all who reply!

Hi mike,

I would use Gateway with the N3DS - because it has firmwarespoofing for games included and afaik N3DS has only support to emunand 9.5

On the O3DS if its 4.X I would install the mset Exploit and use rxTools. With that you can update your emunand to the latest firmware.
If you are already on 9.2 you can install the homemenuhax to have a little more comfort. But in my opinion the mset starts better.

I am trying to install rxtools and I installation data suite freezes on rxtools on my 4.2u o3DS. Any ideas why?

I tried with 2.6 and the nightly build of RxTools. I am using the mset entry point for the most part but I tried with cubic ninja too.
The CN maybe won't work if your browser version is too low. And if it freezes check you have the correct firmware.bin and slot0x25.bin in the correct place. I suppose you to update to a newer version >6.0 using card, perform a entire update to 9.2 using sysupdater w/ devmode and later downgrade mset back to 4.x. That's the best way I can think of.

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
