i'm looking into getting a 3ds that can support a 3ds. willing to purchase a new special edition which was why i'm wondering what systems I can get that come with supported firmware. if I'm not mistaken, it works with 9.0 so anything below the zelda & monster hunter special editions should work with it right?
Hacking gateway supported special edition 3ds systems?

Wath I mean here, is, that if a special edition is on 9.2 or lower, it's perfectly fine.
On the other hand, Gateway officially announced that 10.3 support is coming soon, so theorically, any current 3ds are gonna be compatible.
Special edition systems are just a cool paint job. They don't have anything different internally. Software, they just have a game installed.
well that and they are guaranteed specific firmware if untouched so its easier to locate when searching for a hackable ds it jsut costs more
Yea I didn't think about that. They tend to have the minimum firmware the game needs.
Actually, They include whatever firmware was the latest at the time of manufacture.
Very few MH4 N3DS's and MM N3DS's have below 9.2.0
If you do manage to find one, you can check what version it is by comparing the serial number to this chart:

In Aus, 100% of MH4U consoles have 9.0 (only one batch released), and about 20% of MM consoles have 9.0 (there were several batches released from February - July from memory).

i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling -

@The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.

Yeah I think Nvidia s future lays in AI GPU acceleration stuff if they can get that going it's going to be super interesting in the long term

Many TBs of assets and the programming of something like that is going to be tough but I think it's something we might see in 20 years maybe sooner

@Psionic Roshambo AI assisted game creation is kinda already here, there was recently that AI that can turn any 2D image into a fully modeled 3D object, it's not perfect, but it's a starting point, beats starting from zero

but most recently, there was one that actually generates a working unity scene with terrain and textures already set up that you can import right into unity, that's a huge time saver right there

and using LLMs to generate NPC dialogue and even dynamically generated quests is something i'm sure is already happening

will just take some time for games made using those things to be completed and released
