question just got a new snes edition 3dsxl on 11.5. Using the 3ds guide for 11.5 says to use either ntrboot or a hardmod which i dont have a flash card compatible(until scdt becomes compatible) but for the 11.6 method i already own a compatible disware title, zelda four swords which i had from my O3DS but is now on my N3DS via system transfer when i hacked it a while ago.

The question is do i need to update to 11.6 to run the exploit using a cfw N3DS to ofe N3DSXL or can i run it from 11.5 just fine? the 3ds guide doesnt have anything for this case
You have to update to 11.6 so you can system transfer.

The freeshop won't download the game i want to download
I mean try any game. If it works then the problem is the cia not your console.

Edit: Smash Bros is definitely on freeShop. Please check the OP of this thread for help setting it up.

What happens if you hold select while booting?

yeah. still does nothing
Sounds like you didn't manage to install CFW I'm afraid! What firmware did you start on? If ntrboot and you have a compatible DS flashcart then just start again. If not, look here https://3ds.guide/ntrboot and buy a compatible DS flashcart to follow this method.

ok n00b question for the n00b thread :D
havent made many threads but have mad much progress, even have the bluetooth module hardmod but my question lies in the flashcard...

I purchased the r4 3ds+ used the NTR mode to achieve CFW - switched back to DS mode to load my old homebrew files from my ds (running new woods 3ds firmware on card) and all works

I've seen many posts that say "when you are done getting CFW just switch the card back to DS mode because you wont use NTR mode again" --- is this true? is there anything I am missing from just using the r4 as a DS flashcart?
Is there a way to play ds roms right from the 3ds without having to play them from the flashcard?

In other words... is there a way to migrate my DS homebrew to the 3ds internal flash and run them though the CFW or will I always need to launch a DS title from the flashcart?
Would like to migrate flashcart to the SD card inside the 3ds so that file browsers see all files and im not stuck with either browsing the flashcart OR browsing 3ds sd card.
Ive replaced some of the homebrew from the flashcard with their new 3ds homebrew counterparts, but others are still seemingly exclusive to the flashcard.

You need a DS flashcart to play DS games. There's a DS emulator but it is only compatible with a small handful of games.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.

    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
