Hey gbatemp members.
I just downgraded my New 3DS to 9.2 and backed up my sysNAND.
What i want to check is which cfw to install (I saw too many kinds of cfw so i got confused) and how?
At the end I just want to play cia games.
Thanks for the help.

Here follow this guide. It's pretty simple and noob proof :ha::

https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutoria...luding-emunand-coldboot-cia-installer.405589/

Plus there's actually a lot more you have to do than just getting cfw and a guide makes it easy for you to do it. As someone that's already done this, follow the guide, don't go out and install the cfw yourself you'll actually waste more time doing that then you will if you followed a guide.

This. I used this guide to install Reinand and it worked great.

Go with ReiNAND or AuReiNAND. AuReiNAND adds a few extra tweaks, but if all you want to do is install unsigned cias, go with reiNAND.

yeah im not sure of the differences to a9lh over ReiNAND
(Au)reinand is a cfw. A9lh is an exploit that allows you to gain more access into the system and manipulate it more. Eg. Boot cfw straight on boot (turn on system -> cfw) which is much faster than menuhax to cfw.

In My Opinion....best of all if on O3DS use RxTools....if on N3DS use Aureinand or Reinand.....Best overall....in my opinion....RxTools

I would also reccomend reinand. It's simple and supports sig patching and use of .cia installing. Also it now supports loading through arm9loaderhax as well as loading through menuhax.

if you come to want to do some serious work you'll need RxTools....i.e. if you wanna create your own cia files....then RxTools is the one you need. So best just install it now and save you all the pain.....tomorrow....next week....whenever.....just my opinion

Decrypt9, Emunand9, and Uncart do everything Rx does, but better, aside from the "convenience" of all in one integration. We're splitting hairs though, in the end, it's all the same no matter which CFW you go with.

true Decrypt9, Emunand9, and Uncart all can do the same as rxtools...but why learn 4 tools when you can learn 1 WELL....RxTools original and the best.....just my opinion

Remember rxtools 3.0 when it's finally out of beta no longer includes all those tools.....

Get use to using Everything else now, even the RX team said D9 and other tools work better

rxtools has been taken over by a whole new group. IDK if the plans of the pasta team are the same as that of the original developer(s)

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    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.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    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 :)
