I was thinking of selling my current 2DS so I can buy a new one for CFW :D sooo should I buy a brand new 2DS or a second hand 3DS XL? they are about the same price on our country :D

Not when the pixels are just stretched out to fit a bigger scree... They just look blurrier not better.
I find the XL a lot more immersive, and it fits my hands better. I wouldn't recommend a normal size 3DS/n3DS unless you have little hands and I wouldn't recommend the 2DS unless you're clumsy and tend to drop stuff a lot as it is quite sturdy, or are on a budget.

lucky for you -_______________-
You'll be happier with a 3dsXL. The screen is too small on a 2ds, buttons less quality, less battery life, and won't fit in your pocket.
It's fine as a second system, but you will feel cheated with it being your primary. I have both models.

Don't worry about exploitability, almost all new old3ds's are 9.2 or less except the yo-kai 2ds bundle.

yeah PHP 5.3k on the Philippines. It sucks here XD

did you ever think about importing? like getting a 3ds from amiami or play-asia? also where in the philippines are you? i would think greenhills would sell those for cheaper than 5.3k.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
