rare mario kart 7 error

DenpaMan · Wednesday at 8:03 PM

hello! i don't think anyone else has gotten this error before, for context this is on real hardware and not emulation, a japanese 3ds XL with a north american mario kart 7 cartridge, specifically generic error 37(dlp). i am gonna test this with the digital version too to see if this error persists but out of all of my multiplayer games(well, at least games that have some sort of local wireless play)have not given me an error like this before. for all i know this error with MK7 could be a result of it being an old cart as i've had it since i was a kid and its been well loved. though well loved doesn't always mean it will stand the test of time, that said. i have tried removing and re-inserting the cart, same error and so on. i even checked if this was an issue discussed but found nothing. if anyone happens to have a sort of explaination as to why or how this issue happens, please let me know!

EDIT: so i managed to get my grimmy mitts on a digital copy of mk7 and no error there, weird. i had a feeling it could've been an issue with my cartridge but even then that still doesn't fully explain the error.

If it’s local wireless play, maybe it’s an issue with Download play (if you were trying to use it)

If you took a moment to search, you would find you are gravely mistaken. https://wiki.hacks.guide/wiki/3DS:Error_screens/Luma3DS_ErrDisp

Occurs when attempting to use DLP services with an out-of-region game. This issue is not fixable currently.

aw shit thats on me for not being able to find that, i'll admit thats an oversight on my end but i did legitmately try searching to see if such an error was noted and i sadly didn't find this link sooner(i originally was searching with the error ID not the hex value for the error which might explain it). i appreciate you bringing this to me, mind you i never had this issue before on that same console and cart so its weird that its popping up now... additionally, in regards to the error itself, i did have luma locale setup for the cartridge both with the default and the north american options, the error still persisted.
