Hacking GATEWAY 3DS IS PREPARING A BIG UPDATE IN APRIL!!

[CreAtor135]

how can you try to sell a product by just announcing a release date and not the feature ?

Well he most likely doesn't know the feature, which is why he has to use buzz words to describe it.

Would be so much nicer here if the admins could implement per-thread banning. Seriously, if you don't have a Gateway, aren't curious about getting one, and especially if you, in fact, are a complete RETARD and hate Gateway... then you don't belong in a Gateway thread. GTFO.

In case you haven't noticed, not all Gateway haters are people who don't have a Gateway. I wouldn't be surprised in the least if a big portion - perhaps even majority of those haters used to have Gateway. I have a deep hate for Gateway too, and I was once it's user. When you realize you've been using something as shite as GW, and limiting yourself for no reason, it's hard to not get annoyed. Then you read every day about threads where people with GW bricked their systems because X or Y, or post threads because they need help with GW because A or B, it's pretty easy to start hating on something as outdated and shit as GW.

The only good thing about GW is it's cheat function if you really must cheat in games, but it doesn't outweigh it's cons. Not by a mile. And if we're gonna talk about ease of access (no need to install games), then even Sky3DS is better than Gateway simply because you don't need anything to use it, and you're sure as hell not going to brick your system with it.

You are all on crack or have dial-up internet. I can download 10 .3ds files and get them onto my Gateway's mSD card WAY faster than the 3DS is capable of downloading even 1 game with free shop.

You're clearly over-exaggerating, or your SD card on your 3DS is from the stone age. You are right that it is faster to download on your PC and move files to SD card than it is to download on 3DS with freeShop, but you do realize you can download cia games just like you can download .3ds roms on your PC? You can then move those files *gasp*, to your SD card just as you would to your Gateway. Sure you'll still have to install them, but trying to justify Gateway because it saves you 2 minutes of your clearly very limited and precious time per game is retarded to say the least.

well, gateway does have exfat support for the card in the flash cart, but I've never seen a game over 4GBs.

Donkey Kong Country Returns?

I use my Gateway since it has been released and I still use it. I remember the hate comments when you had to write a complete ROM Image to your SD-Card because Multi-File Selection was not available. Or when the people waited long time for CARD2 support but GW delivered. Yes, they had most times huge delays in delivery but at the end they proofed that they can and will deliver!

Really bad was fact that they implemented brick code. That was an absolutely NO GO, especially for a product which support illegal copies!

I was never expecting that they support their product for such a long time but they do! My n3DS XL is soft modded with a9hl and Luma, eFreeshop works fine but the GW card is still in charge, too!

In my opinion GW helped a lot to open the gate of 3DS hacking!

It was a fake ?

Pardon? What do you mean by writing: "It was a fake ?"?

You must have a very short memory. I understand why he thinks you haters are all on crack.

Tell me how long it takes you to take 15-20 CIA's totaling 10 Gigabytes from a computer, copy them to a micro sd card, then get them all installed onto your 3ds.

Using GW to do the above (replace .CIA files with .3ds files obviously) With GW you will be playing your games like 5 hours before you have all the CIA's installed. Are you really this dense?

If your using freeshop, your limited to the speed of wireless with a 3ds (which is pitifully slow), installing CIA's your way, the time wasted is waiting on the install side.

 

[gnmmarechal]

Gateway still relevant? really?

Not really, but they keep trying.

 

[The Catboy]

People still have it, since 2014 when it was actually worth it, why people can't understand the facts?

I am not trying to bash Gateway, but is really worth it?
The thing is, Gateway seriously lags behind when compared to free CFWs. In fact with this update, they've waited so long between the 11.2 update and 11.3 update, that 11.4 has been released. Which 11.4 added another NATIVE_FIRM dependency, because you know, Nintendo is one trick pony. But this will most likely mean the "big news" they had planned for April has most likely been scrapped, again. And this isn't the first time this has happened, in fact it's happened a lot in the past. This means that Gateway users are either stuck on 11.2 or if they updated their emuNANDS, stuck completely with nothing.
Now of course Gateway also lacks other basic feature, such as FIRM0/1 protection. So anyone who was foolish enough to run Gateway on sysNAND, ended up loosing their A9LH in one simple update. Something that really doesn't happen with free CFWs (unless it was a CFW where FIRM0/1 protection is optional, to which it's still their fault for not using it.)
Basically Gateway users have paid to be out of date, this is a fact, not an opinion. Sure Gateway has .3DS loading and a better cheat system, but are those really worth the high price tag? Are those really worth having 1GB/2GB of your SD being taken up by an emuNAND? Are those really worth waiting weeks to months for an update? Are you really getting your money's worth out it? Compared to someone running a free CFW, who has devs that almost immediately update?

It takes less time to install 15-20 CIAs than it does waiting for Gateway to update their CFW.
Get back to me when you can run an OFW past 11.2.

 

[Columbo2811]

It's the same argument over and over with gateway. I've been a gateway user since the beginning and have 3 gateway cards(brought them for the kids) and I can honestly say gateway is shit now. End of argument.

 

[Slattz]

Seeing as everyone hates gateway, anyone selling one for < €5?
Honestly the purpose of this thread was probably not meant to be an invite for people to express their love/hate for GW lol

 

[ElYubiYubi]

Done. Not anymore. There are better, SAFER and free methods of hackin the 3DS now

EDIT

Even the Sky3DS is still a better method(a lot better actually) than Gateway

Can't argue my point I see. GW will eventually be updated, but dealing with CIA's and freeshop will always be 40+ times slower for you. There is no update you can wait for on that.

You guys are pretty sad, GW users don't pollute all CFW threads here saying how stupid you are.

Your points aren't even remotely close to validating the continue usage of Gateway 3DS. Wow, you can use .3DS roms, that's all well and good. Expect you also can't update your emuNAND for months on end and often times you end up waiting so long, another update gets pushed out. But of course, that .3DS support, right?
Gateway CFW lacks basic features like FIRM0/1 protect or support for any version of A9LH past V1, unless you jump through hoops to make it work. But completely worth those few extra minutes you save copying over those .3DS roms.
So you win with saving a few extra minutes with .3DS games, completely worth waiting weeks to even months for an update. Completely worth clinging to out of date software or even just flat out removing your A9LH in one simple update.
So while you sit there with 11.2, I am just going to install a CIA. By the time I am done installing my CIA, you will still be on 11.2

sorry if "fake" is not an English word ^^'
I want Say "it was a joke ?"

 

[The Real Jdbye]

I'd like to believe that they'll release a big update in April, but if past experience tells me anything it's to never trust their "deadlines".

My GW A9LH emuNAND setup is just as safe as a free CFW, and just as good minus Gateway lacking certain features which hopefully they'll pull through and add. But Gateway also has a few features that free CFW doesn't. Luma has more of them though, so it has the edge there.
It is getting pretty annoying how slow they are with updates though. They seem like they're just not willing to put in the effort to keep up.

What exactly do you gain from polluting a thread that is dedicated to something you DON'T USE!

You lemmings are sad, I have probably saved over 400 hours of waiting on install times for my 3 kids 3DS'es compared to using CFW and dealing with CIA's/Freeshop.

Just because you think something sucks, does not mean it does. Just because you don't care about your time, and waiting and working around a specific feature does not mean it is that way for EVERYONE.

I illustrate a perfect example where someone using a GW would save 5 hours or more, and your response is saving a few extra minutes!? I think you need to check your critical thinking, it is broke.

I don't give a crap if GW takes 30 more days to support the newer version, you guys argue who cares about waiting for CIA's to install, then who cares if we have to wait for a newer version?? I can still use my GW like I have been for years with the majority of games for my kids and switch between cards in a second. You can't.

Oh and guess what? I can still use CFW ALSO!

Get over it already.

 

[Temptress Cerise]

I don't really get these GW Haters//Bashers. I mean, it's not like every thread a noob makes, everyone is trying to sell them on GW.

Your argument is based on opinions, I am using facts. Nothing I have said is incorrect. People are paying to be out of date, this is a fact. People are paying to wait weeks to months for an update. People are paying to be missing basic features. I care because people aren't getting the service they deserve from a paid product. It would be one thing if this was a one time thing, it's another when it's every single update with Gateway. I care because people deserve better for a paid for service

Yeah, I dunno about this "big update" in April. GaryOPA's been mum on this since February, other than teaser posts like something about a "gift in an easter basket." And it's ridiculous that we go 6+ months without an update sometimes. Hell, SC2+ had better support and features than GW. I STILL have one and use it often.

Granted, yes, I'm a GW user, but I also have Luma installed, with tons of CIAs. It makes playing VC games and injects a lot easier. Sure, we're stuck on 11.2, but are we really missing out on anything by not updating?
