oh i see, is 300$ the average selling price?

From what I can see on eBay, $300 seems to be the average going rate.

The only retail store in the US that I could ever imagine might have a n3ds xl at 9.0 would be a place like Costco that sells them in bundles so they don't get sold that often. But even that is a big "if".

There's really no 9.0s left on the shelves any longer, unfortunately. A few people on eBay have some brand new ones guaranteed to be on 9.0 but yea, $300 or so seems to be the going rate. Some people sold them for $350 even.

i have a new 3ds 9.1.0 jp and test with in following result ,too. so i do not confirm the firmlaunchax is working.
now i am downloading Xenoblade(jp) and will try it soon.



I've struggled with the following. I've gotten games that require 9.3-9.4 to work on n3DS so I assume firmlaunchax is working.

However, I haven't been able to get the new encryption games working. I converted my cart dump to a CIA and installed it. Which works fine. However when I do the latest update for smash, it just hangs indefinitely on the 3DS screen. If I remove the update, it works fine.

I tried the following.

1. Disable Firmalunch
2. Boot to Pasta CFW
3. Load up e-shop spoofer
4. Enter e-shop and download new update.
5. Shut down 3DS.
6. Boot 3DS into Pasta with firmlaunch.
7. Game hangs at the 3DS loading screen.

Am I doing something wrong?

Offtopic - Perhaps add a version number for the pasta splash screen (similar to GW's)

have you made sure to enable firmlaunch in the options and have the firm.bin located in the pastacfw folder ?

In order to play Xenoblade on <9.3 I'm guessing it needs to be a CIA? How long does it usually take to boot? I installed a CIA and got stuck on the Nintendo 3DS boot screen when I attempted to launch it. Is the internal NAND large enough to install XB to it or does it have to be installed to the SD?

are you in firmlaunch mode ? (have you enabled the firmlaunch mode from options ?)
it works as a CIA, i can confirm it, you just need to be in firmlaunch mode

Yes, I was in firmlaunch. At least as far as I could tell. Does it load relatively quickly?

To set up firmlaunch I just open the Companion app, select my SD, select New 3DS, then click download. After that I just boot Pasta holding R, right?

yeah, you need to setup firmlaunch through the companion app

launch the CFW first without the firmlaunch, use the eshop spoofer, update ssb, restart the CFW with firmlaunch and then you can use SSB updated online !
