ROM Hack Update japanese games?

N0R7H · Sep 21, 2020

I successfully installed japanese VC pokemon games, but they were in cci format. I converted them to cia and installed, but now these games are telling me to update, although these games never went to v1.1, only to v1.0.
I'd try to update them, but since they are Japanese games and my 3ds is European, I can't, so I'm not sure how I'd be able to update them, is there any way I can update them, or tun off this message?
I'd leave them as they are, but my ocd is bothering me.

Go find the CIA and install it

I've looked for them everywhere, but couldn't find them, only the US/EUR version, but I needed the japanese version, and this is the only place I found them.

Finding the correct CIA for the JPN versions of the games should work. It's strange it didn't work for you.

Have you tried to use any of these 3 homebrew apps as an alternative?

Just try them all and let us know if any could solve your issue. Usually they work.

I mean, the games work, but they tell that there is an update. It tells you to update (which you can't, since you can't go to japanese eshop) or play the game. It's not really a problem, but it bothers me to push cancel every time I want to play, because if I push to update, maybe I'll get banned because trying to update a japanese game from an european eshop.

Edit: I added a picture of what appears.

As @Shadow#1 said, you will not be banned because of that.

But to make it easier for you, what you can do is:

Install the update from EUR or US versions of the updates and try the homebrew apps I have suggested above to change the updates to the versions of the games (in this case JPN) and the updates should work.

LumaLocaleSwitcher

LumaLocaleRegionAutoSetter

DSES (Dead Simple EULA Set)

Install the versions of the games matching the region of your console and it will allow you to update the games using the versions you have found online (EUR/US).
