I have Monster Hunter Ultimate 4 Edition of New 3DS XL with MH4U pre-installed on it. I know if I'm gonna format system memory, I can still download it again from the eshop, but if I'm going to downgrade, would I still get the game downloaded from the eshop? I heard something that pre-installed titles download rights are stored in the system NAND, so do I lose it in the downgrade process?

Also, worked like a charm with my brother's o3DS.

EDIT:

Oh, screw it. I downgraded my N3DS from 10.5 to 9.2 without any problem. Currently doing my sysNAND.bin backup. <3

I can confirm you can do this as I have the same special edition. Just be sure to run TinyFormat after you've created your emunand so you can unlink the nands. After that restore your Nintendo 3DS folder and you should have 2 folders now (original, and new profile). If you don't do this you'll have issues.

Dunno about that if you installed your homebrew via .cia, but I think if you're using .3dsx homebrew, you should not have any problem. But I don't really know, since I'm pretty new in this 3DS scene.

okay, thank you! .3dsx homebrew means that i start my homebrew apps via .3dsx files, right? I installed homebrew via browserhax and now use menuhax_manager to boot it up while 3ds is starting, so i should have .3dsx homebrew. My actual firmware is 10.5 and i want to downgrade so that i am able to install cia files (like this:)

Just for the record, does the new sysupdater work on any firmware version 9.3-10.6, making the old ones obsolete?

From what I've read, the new sysupdater is meant to be used on firmware 10.4-10.6; so if you're on firmware 10.3 or less and want to be safe (and happens to be lucky enough to have Cubic Ninja or OOT), I'd suggest you update to 10.6 first then try the new sysupdater, as it seems to be much more stable than the old ones.

That's stupid. 10.6 requires Cubic Ninja or OOT. 10.3 only requires the browser.

Kinda a stretch asking this but, is there any way to unbrick an o3DS? My dumbass flashed the n3DS 9.2 last night instead of the o3DS 9.2

... what? 10.6 is compatible with the downgrader, read the topic xP
You gotta hit the Settings or URL button quickly before the message appears. Happened to me too.

Problem now is you'll need cubic ninja, sky3ds, smashhax, or oot to access homebrew.
I have Ocarina of Time from a while ago. Thank you for your concern. n_n

Question is, if I hack my old 3DS XL, could I possibly dump all of my games so I don't need to switch the cartridges around?

Yes, but you will need to convert those dump games into cia. It's better you download the games that's already in cia.

Also do you have a way to inject the save exploit into oot?

Ocarina of Time requires another a;ready hacked 3DS or a device to put the hacked save file on the cart. Do you have one of those?
