Says the one who have 4 Sky3DS and 3 exploitable 3DS with RXTools installedJust update to 10.2 so no mo piracy
he has been releasedAs 3DS and 3DS XL are no longer produced, if you find a new one, I'm pretty sure it will be on less than 9.2.
As for the 2DS, all bundles until now will probably be on less than 9.2, but I think the Yo-Kai Watch one will be on 9.9 or more.

And if I get a standalone 2DS?As for the 2DS, all bundles until now will probably be on less than 9.2, but I think the Yo-Kai Watch one will be on 9.9 or more.
It will *probably* be on 9.2 or lower, since afaik there hasn't been any restocks in a while. I'm really not sure though, but since it's only sold in bundles now (at least here in Europe), they probably aren't producing the standalone ones (so exploitable firmware).And if I get a standalone 2DS?

I know, but what I meant is that even they are no longer produced, there isn't a lot of demand, so it's still really easy to obtainI'm in EU and there are lots of standalone ones.
This will be a little bit of a hijack, but is it still true that EU N3DSes are 9.0?

Thanks! All types of N3DSes and 2DSes are found here (at an EU store), so what is my best bet to get <9.3? Is it safe to go for an N3DS or should I go with a 2DS?I know, but what I meant is that even they are no longer produced, there isn't a lot of demand, so it's still really easy to obtain
The "old" ones only. When I got my ambassador edition, it was on 9.0 (and I updated it, I didn't know about CFW and stuff like that at the time, I want to punch my old self so badly) , and approximatively anyone that has been produced before april should be fine... But since it's a little hard to find right now, you can most likely find it either on small / not specialised shops that doesn't sell much consoles, or on the Amazon Marketplace / eBay.
If you buy a 2DS, I'm practically sure you're safe.Thanks! All types of N3DSes and 2DSes are found here (at an EU store), so what is my best bet to get <9.3? Is it safe to go for an N3DS or should I go with a 2DS?
Lol, they don't even know about the exploit here! But they don't let me open the packages and returns are a bit difficult ...If you buy a 2DS, I'm practically sure you're safe.
For the N3DS, it's a bit more risky. If it's a nice and friendly store, you can ask them to see the firmware version (you can do that for the 2DS btw, just to be sure, we never know ) by using the "I want to use the kernel exploit to run my emulators properly" excuse, if they ask you why.
In any case, since you're in the UE, you should be able to get a refund if you return the console within 14 days (if it doesn't have any visible signs of use, of course), so if you *really* take care of it while checking the FW version, that shouldn't really be a problem =)
Oh, that's a problem...Lol, they don't even know about the exploit here! But they don't let me open the packages and returns are a bit difficult ...
If you have the web browser installed (the "X" on "8.1.0-X") then yes, you can.Can cfw be used out of the box on 8.1? Or would I have to get a game to update to a better firmware or something?
9.2 => Autoboot CFWCan cfw be used out of the box on 8.1? Or would I have to get a game to update to a better firmware or something?
But 2DS who come with 8.1 by default wouldn't have it?If you have the web browser installed (the "X" on "8.1.0-X") then yes, you can.
Would love to, but AFAIK there is no SN numbers guide for small N3DSes here.Actually, I just had the idea, but you can also ask them for the serial (on the side of the box) and search what firmware version the 3DS comes with =)
If X isn't 0.But 2DS who come with 8.1 by default wouldn't have it?
