Not sure if this is the right place to post, but... (sorry)
I'm going to downgrade my 2DS. I'm following a tutorial on youtube and the guy says I have to format my SD card through the 3DS. The thing is... I have 2 games that I bought over the eShop and one other Mario game that I got for free from the eShop aswell... I have some demos too. So... if I format the memory through the console settings will I lose the games?

When the guide says, move NAND.bin to the pc, does it mean, remove it from the SD card? I can't link the guide, but I'm currently creating and emuNAND

Actually when I did my downgrade from 10.3 to 9.2 I immediately backed up my sd as well as made a 9.2 nand.bin backup using emunand9. Once I had that I followed the guide and formatted pretty much everything when it said I should in the guide. Once I was done setting up my arm9lh I restored my 9.2 backup and everything was back.

TL;DR downgrade with formatting anything and make sure you backup your sysnand and sd immediately. Save these on your pc and you would be able to return to your previous state

Thanks, already downgraded, thanks!

Yeah you dont need it on your sd card after you back up so rename the file appropriately and keep it somewhere safe on your pc

I have a question. I'm trying to boot RXTools from CTRBootManager, but it says Failed to load Native_Firm 4. Reboot rxTools and try again. Am I missing a file here?

The download may have been incomplete, find the downgrade checking tool to see if your native firm downgraded

Do I just put the files in the 3ds folder?

Can I delete folders to get just the files I had after I downgraded?
I haven't downloaded it but assuming it's a folder with a *file*.3dsx in it yes that folder goes in the 3ds folder. I don't understand your second question, what folders and files.

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
