Kay...damn. And how expensive is a hardmod? I have no experience with soldering but maybe someone near me does...

Not sure.

Here's a list of trusted hard modders you can ship it to.

To get free games, you have only 2 option No Exception:

Buy a sky3ds with orange button ($100) or negotiate a better deal with the hard modders. An optional choice, you can take an electronic soldering class and do it yourself

Or check if there's a repair shop near that wants to do it

Hey all. I sold the 10.6.0 3ds and looking into buying another. One I have my eyes on has 9.4 firmware.
Will this be easy to downgrade or to install all cia's??

If you're buying a 9.4, better look for a 9.2...

I know but there aren't that many available. But downgrading to 9.4 is easy right?

As easy as any other version under 10.3

Well i found several 9.0.0 n3ds and n3dsxl in belgium, new in store. So i guess they are still in the wild

As long as I can play either legit cia's or all cia's I'm good.
I want free games basically lol.

You don't need a downgrade to intall a legit cia.

9.4 version is fine. You can easily downgrade it to 9.2. BUT ALWAYS MAKE BACKUP OF YOUR SYSNAND!

Don't understand the whole sysnand and emunand thing yet..anyone wanna explain in easy language?

 

[Virdoo]

There is not much to know. Sysnand is original system software, while emunand is custom copy of system software. Emunand allows you to install cias and much more. You should deffenetly downgrade your console and install CFW (emunand). Rxtools is one of known.

Also for installing emunand over Rxtools you don't need to buy anything. Just need memory card. 8 GB is minimum, since new Pokemon games have around 2 GB. I would recommend you 32 GB card.

okay. So as soon as I get the 3ds with 9.4, what are my steps?
There's probably a guide on this but I just wanna make sure I'm doing the right thing.

 

[Virdoo]

First you should downgrade it to 9.2 and then install RXtools, but be really careful. You might brick your console while doing it. Better ask if something is not clear, also there are a lot of tutorials which can be easily followed to help you.

 

[Temarile]

I used THIS guide. It really helped me. It even has the downgrading info you want to know. If you have any questions and you don't know how to ask in English: I'm Dutch so send me a message. I think I'm getting the hang on this

 

[Nikcat]

Okay, thanks! I'll be careful not to brick it. I'm excited.

What are the odds that a new kernel exploit was just released today, so you can downgrade and get cias?
