Hacking After A9HL what do people do with their Gateway3DS carts?

[mgrev]

That's what I said.

a 5 or 10 quid backplate whilst a flashcard sets you back 14 or 7 times that ._.
Stealing games you say?
Why are you pirating then and not robbing gamestores?

people could just not screw the screws in. it fits anyway

WOW, that same old argument is used SO MANY times for flashcard fanboys !
Fun fact: without private headers, you can get banned online!
And talking about that, it's a surprise you have to be on 9.2 which is the version you can get free and more reliable CFW's
Also, how do you feel how hard it is to get a .3ds compared to a .cia(you can pull them using ciaangel/funkeycia(nintendo servers themselves)
Also, how do you feel that you were an idiot and paid for piracy when you could get it for FREE/0 $ ?
Good? You shoudn't because a normal person would call it a mistake.
Also, comparing the hassle to get a gateway card to boot into an emunand(nowadays updated sysnand+a9lh is waaaay faster and more reliable as well as anti brick is awesome) compared to newer alternatives, there's really really NO EXCUSE for a gateway card to exist. I'd like to say to Gateway/Sky3ds fanboys to stop defending their purchase.

I can see someone getting a Sky3DS+, honestly. Hell, I've thought about getting one even though I'm on CFW for convenience's sake with Single Player games, though I'd probably never get a gateway just because of the prerequisites of the thing. Say what you will about gateway, but the sky3ds+ can work on the latest firmware no problem, and that's pretty impressive.

Regardless, you're being needlessly hostile.

^ this.
This just makes owning a Gateway for the reason of removing your MSD less of an argument.

You realize that I use A9LH and have been in the scene for like decades, right.
I'm well aware of private headers, I pulled my private header from Ridge Racer, that's how long I've been pirating, I mean testing Nintendo games.

I see no reason to pretend to be on a high horse just cause your are using A9, I think everyone should be using A9 even GW and Sky people, simply because A9 is better and can preboot and save your ass on a bad firm update.

But to come around and say that all flashcards are useless due to CFW is being ignorant.

Several good things about flashcards.

1) No need to unscrew your backplate 6 million times
2) No need to move data and then wait for an install
3) Easy sav backup (at least for GW)
4) Easy drag and drop
5) No need to wait for FTP 4Gb of data at 300kbs per second.
6) Extra storage space beyond your SD card, so you can carry more games that you won't play.

The biggest downside is flashcards sometimes freeze and can cause data loss.

In an ideal world you can use both flashcard and a9lh at the same time, best of both worlds. Which is what I do, I have a Sky, GW and a9lh.

1/5/2-Just make a hole/Just put the 80 CIAS you downloaded and install&delete them with FBI so it goes flawlessy
3-svdt
6-But you have to buy a second microsd, one for the n3ds and another for the gateway! that's double the price i think it's cheaper to buy a 128/200 gb one
And yes, flashcards are useless compared to cfw. and i don't consider myself superior for using a9lh, I only get kind of frustrated when I see atrocities of posts like "gateway/sky3ds is superior " or some bullshit like that

I am a noob tell me what is the advantage of using CFW against Gateway ?

 

[Davidosky99]

I am a noob tell me what is the advantage of using CFW against Gateway ?

using a cfw is free it has brick protection, it is faster, more convenient and user friendly, besides having a huge community and the devs actually caring.
There's no advantage of using a flashcard only disavantages

I ain't cutting no hole in my backplate dude. I value aesthetics above all things. How am I gonna carry my N3DS around in my fancy leather laptop bag and take it out on a flight with a giant hole in the back. I'll look like a retard, on top of the fact that I'm playing a 3DS. Also new games come out all the time, how you gonna move all those new games at 300kbs using wifi? You gotta open the backcover.

Hell, no it ain't cheaper to buy a 200gb then to get 2x128gbs. You can get 128gbs for chump change nowadays. Also maybe I want 2x200gb so I can carry every single game that I own with me at all times. You can't do that with just CFW.

You telling that SVDT is easier than drag and drop, hell no.

There is no superior, CFW has its benefits, flashcards have its benefits, they both do different things better.

I'd like to say to Gateway/Sky3ds fanboys to stop defending their purchase.

Let me weigh in on this quickly, since you're acting really hostile about this.

-Yes, people have been said to be banned from online due to headers, however a case regarding this hasn't been reported in a year or so. A rehashed argument from a glorified CFW user. (Also, it isn't exactly hard to make your own private header. I doubt a 3DS owner would have no games for the system, and Gateway allows to dump your games as well as pull the headers from them.)
-Getting a .3ds file isn't hard at all actually, because they get scene releases sometimes before .CIAs. (And are you forgetting that Gateway can install .CIAs as well? Many seem to think they'd need a free CFW just to install a .CIA.)
-People have the right to use their money however they please. It shouldn't be frowned upon if they are spending their money on a utility that they genuinely want.
-Getting a Gateway to boot into an emuNAND partition is a hassle? Really??? They offer *hax entrypoints, they can autoboot as well, without spending about 2-3 hours to shave a couple seconds off boot speed. And might I add that Gateway is working on A9LH support themselves. The issue here is that people are impatient.
And you saying there's no reason for a Gateway card to EXIST is complete bunk. If it weren't for the Gateway Team in the first place, it's likely your CFW wouldn't exist as an end result.

To add to this, some (many) people already own a Gateway card. The price argument is completely irrelevant for those people.

WHAT? You can't. I HAVE like over 100 3ds games and like more than 80 VC's as CIAS, and you're telling me you can't with a 128 GB? That's just ridiculous. And also, I didn't mention WIFI because I never used it and never will. I prefer SD , just because I can put my 180 CIAS and install them all at once(in one night, probabily when you're sleeping). A new game appears? No problem. Download the CIA and install it with FBI. It won't probabily take that long. And don't come at me saying that CIAS are less confortable than the shitty Gateway ROM selection, that's just awful

You realize that every time a new game comes along and you want to play it you need to open the back cover right? Since you don't use wifi, that's a hell of a lot of back cover opening. And there are way more than 128gb worth of games on 3DS. My collection alone spans more than 350gbs.
How do you expect to keep your entire 3DS collection on you at all times unless you use a9lh and flashcard together. There is no such thing as a SD card bigger than 200gb, so you can't possibly fit your whole collection unless you use both.

wow, so you just admit that they stole the free *hax entrypoint to use on their commercial and paid product, and later they're gonna again steal a free and public software called a9lh and promote it as revolutionary and unique. Their entrypoint is just free software, meaning that in the same way you use a gateway, you're using a CFW, the difference is you're paying for a shitty support team, which doesn't care about you or none of their customers? Have you wondered why SOON became a meme? That's why. They just don't care. In the end they're just thieves that are getting their money from lazy users or uninformed users

So, you expect to have a 3ds flashcard and an updated sysnand/emunand? You do realize how hard it is don't you. That just to don't mention how ridiculous the concept is. Just buy 2/3* 128 if your collection is THAT big and write a 1 2 and 3 label on the cards so you can distinguish the cards and the games inside. Also 350 gb(like wtf)

I told you I'm oldschool, my 3DS collection dates back from day one, dude. I got everything from Japan to Eu to US.

You realize that I'm on firmware 11, using a9lh and using Sky3ds right. Its very easy to use a9 and still use flashcards.

Why would I wanna labels a bunch of SDs cards like a loser, and screw and unscrew the back cover all day long, when I can get 2x200gbs sd cards, put one inside the system, and put the other inside the flashcard and just split my game library across both the system and the flashcard, and have everything without swapping cards, and reading tiny labels.

Face it flashcards have their uses, you just hate them for some unknown reason.

that's just ridiculous if you ask me, because one, why the multiregion roms when they're all the same essentialy and 2 it defeats the purpose because you have to reboot the 3ds and eventually the gw boot will FAIL because of the *hax instability
