There's really no reason to up just for a game. CFWs by nature have 100% perfect ROM compatibility, even dead CFWs like RXTools still has that much going for it.
By real suggest of instead of waiting around for an unlikely update, is to either to stick with ReiNAND or switch to something else. Regardless, you are most likely not going to start seeing updating for ReiNAND, unless someone else picks up the project.

It's highly likely Nintendo will update NFIRM again with Pokemon Sun/Moon release, and this time block out old native firms by changing the minimum required NFIRM. This will block out DSiWare downgrading and hardmod downgrading, but it will also block out CFWs that use an old NFIRM. ReiNAND uses a 10.2 firmware.bin built into it, so you'd need to update it to use a new NFIRM or else it won't work with Sun/Moon assuming Nintendo does what we expect.

Yeah, but that's not really hard to fix, just replace the firmware.bin. ReiNAND shouldn't need to update to support replacing the firmware.bin, unless Nintendo tries something new. Which outside of updating the NFIRM, Nintendo really isn't known for trying anything too extreme.

ReiNAND uses a built in "firmware.bin" - it doesn't load an external one.

I had hacked my N3ds around March, and was wondering if this can mess up your D pad. My up directional button isnt working anymore after several mpnths passed by. I ask because my up direction d pad was working perfectly fine when it wasnt hacked.

And if this happen, ReiNAND also needs to have svcbackdoor reimplemented into 11.0+ so people can still use dynarec. Right now, ReiNAND simply does this by using an outdated native firm.

can someone please guide me on how to update my reinand 3.1 on 10.3 to the latest version and latest emunand firmware. It has been months since i last installed reinand on my n3ds, and everything is working well, just wanted to update to the latest version.

is it as simple as copying/overwriting the files from reinanand(github) then updating my emunand through the settings?
