    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    Nah. I didn't take the 3DS apart to clean the gyroscope. Dexterious tasks with small pieces isn't exactly in my wheel house. I have rather large hands. At this point, I am probably going to take the L. I convinced little sister to trade her 2ds to her older sister for the 3ds. Little...

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    I tried a few different .3ds files and there was no luck. Good idea. auto I did see that early on. I don't know anything about cleaning a gyroscope but I imagine it means opening the shell. I wanted to save that as a last resort. I actually searched for this post a few times and couldn't...

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    I talked with my daughter and we did buy the game used. If it was played on a new 3ds, maybe it's first run on an old 3ds with a save from a new 3ds set some value somewhere that has fubar'd the device for this game in any format. Kind of what Kwyjor mentioned. Maybe a factory reset would be...

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    I did reset the extdata. Other installed cia's work fine as well as cartridge's. It's just the damn MM cia's and the cartridge. Just bizarre.

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    Thanks for all of the suggestions. I uninstalled via FBI and cleaned out the tickets and then tried the cartridge. No luck. Installed the US and EUR versions. No luck. Hell, I even installed the Japanese version just to see. Nothing. I reset the cartridge on another 2DS and then retried...

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    I don't remember if we bought the game new or used since it was a while back. It is possible. Not a bad line of inquiry for sure. auto I'll go through the ticket section and delete the the Title ID of any of the various versions I've installed. That would be USA, Europe, and the updated of...

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    The slider seems to work properly. I can calibrate it in the system menu and it shows up as it should. It is usually in the off position. I've tried opening with it on or off with no difference. I did read that MM has features for the the new 3ds and that they should be disabled...

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    Thanks for the ideas. Still no love. Everything is up to date. Opened eshop and let it update. Tried to import the seed again but it failed. Again, there is no file in the seed directory that matches the cartridge though so it wasn't a surprise. I wonder if this has something to do with...

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    I've taken the card out and tried to play the cartridge. No dice. Put a new sd card in. No Dice. I just call the flat 2ds a slate because it looks like a slab. auto I've tried to import the seed from FBI and it fails. I installed the seed database as well and it still fails. Looking in the...

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    I've let it set for five+ minutes at a time for it to come up. No sound or action. Just a solid black screen on top and bottom. No buttons respond. I have to hold the power down to reset. The region adjustments come from multiple posts about this game and a few others (see below). Setting...

    Gaming Problems with Majora's Mask on OG 3DS

    Background on the issue: My oldest daughter has an old 3ds. The original. A few years after getting it, she received Majora's mask as a gift. The cartridge would not launch in her system. Both her siblings had 2DS slates and the cartridge worked in both. She ended up playing it on one of...
