    Hacking Gateway and emunand 10.3.0-28

    So, I don't really get it... Is it safe to update to Emunand 10.3.0-28E, or not (while retaining 100% funtionability)? I hate the "Ready to Update System" message popping out twice a day. :)

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    EDIT: Woooah, problem solved! ^^ Just deleted one of the two folders that appeared in the Nintendo 3DS folder on a new SD card, as it didn't match the original (there was only one folder in the backup). And the games + saves are back, at least in sysNAND. Great. :) ORIGINAL post: Uhh, not...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    So, I may be doing it wrong, so could you please tell me what exactly to do now? I have copied the files from SD to PC, then switched the SD card (is this a problem?) for a higher capacity card, formatted it for emuNAND in Gateway, copied back the files from PC to the new SD...and nothing...

    Oh, OK! I thought that if I formatted the card, something somewhere would change (device specific keys, access, I don't know) and the files would cease to be usable. Thank all of you. :) Just to be 100 % sure: I've installed emuNAND and my FW version now reads "GW3D 9.2.0-20E". I want to update...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    I still can't 100% figure out what SD cards do I need to buy for Gateway. Is the following correct? If I want to play .3ds or .3dz games (cartridge copies), I need a high-capacity microSD card to use with the Red Cart for games, and only a 4GB (internal) normal-sized SD card will suffice for...

    Thank you! And am I right to assume that the saves would get corrupted as soon as I downgraded to sysNAND 4.5? (EUR Bravely Default requires 6.2, I think.) Or they'd be fine anyway? Also, I can use any retail game to dump a private header, right? Like a cheap Layton Miracle Mask etc.

    Hi, I'm still confused about the save files issue... Just got my Gateway, haven't used it yet. 1) If I installed the latest FW emuNAND (whatever the number is right now) and stayed on 9.2 sysNAND (old 3DS), could I still use my retail cartridge Bravely Default saves on whatever-NAND, or they'd...

    Hacking List of all Gateway questions (9.2.0-20)

    Thank you. And any idea how to determine which version do the Amazon Japan systems come with? Well, I can easily buy a used unit in Japan for cheap, but I'd like to get a new unit if possible.

    Hacking List of all Gateway questions (9.2.0-20)

    What firmware should a New 3DS be to be able to use Gateway? Does the 9.2.0 criterion apply as well? If so, any idea which version is currently installed on JP devices sold by the Japanese Amazon? Thank you!

    Hacking Error Code 002-0102, Have I been banned?

    Well, the topic appears to be dying out lately... Can it be interpreted that it's still more or less safe to use the Gateway (at least with PHeaders and .cia)? It seems to me that the number of people banned is still pretty low, and almost no one reports new bans. I was hesitant to buy a...

    Hacking Cheapest Gateway 3DS

    Just an eachmall.me update: The refund has finally been completed, so at least in this regard they are legit. But never more, thank you.

    Hacking Error Code 002-0102, Have I been banned?

    So... Do I understand correctly that if I still haven't bought Gateway (I want one), I should wait and see what happens in the next few weeks before buying one as the problem might grow from now on? (FW 9.2, old 3DS.)

    Hacking Cheapest Gateway 3DS

    Has anyone had their order cancelled by Eachmall? Did you really get your money back in the end? I'm quite worried right now. (Paid by MasterCard debit - TenPay.) I've ordered there, and unfortunately haven't checked this forum beforehand as a friend of mine has had no problem with them. But...

    Best Website to Buy Gateway 3DS for USA?

    Not sure what to recommend, but I DO NOT recommend eachmall.me. Communication with them is pathetic, they make embarrassing excuses as to why my order must be cancelled (first they requied me to send them a photo of my credit card with an ID card for "verification", a couple of days later they...

    heres ps4/5
    emulation (it is far from playing actual games yet but its something) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qe71pCjC9U
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I thought PS4/5 and Xbox One emulation would be kind of easy since they basically just a PC
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    they sorta are a pc
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They haslve dedicated on board chips that aren't tweaked like x64/x32 afaik
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    but its a custom os for both of them
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    designed for only specific hardware
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    so you have to learn to emulate that specific hardware which isn't as easy as you'd think
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It's a locked down Linux distro basically
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think the only custom hardware is to do with the SSD and a security chip
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Probably combined in one chip
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They place married security chips onto boards iirc
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Damn Frontier is offering 5Gbps now lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I honestly can't recommend any of the big 3 this years I'd say buy a rog ally z1 if we're being honest
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Honestly after the PS3 and 360 I just went full PC
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Every games basically cross platform they only have about 6 titles making it worth the $600 price tag
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Didn't see much need for a console, all the advantages have kind of disappeared
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    the ps3 used to support installing linux because the cpu was so powerful
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Then the games are $70 and they want to reboot and refresh the same game every year
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The ps3 was always Linux they just found a way to make it open source
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    I'm avoiding buying from the big 3 at all atm
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At one point PC game pads where poorly supported, loading a game had setup, it was complicated. Now it's almost as easy as a console.
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    nintendo needs to up their game soon
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah even bt support for Xbox one controllers are just as easy as pairing
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    considering the steamdeck can emulate the switch (yikes) theres almost 0 reason to buy the switch apart from playing online and using cartridges
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Xinput and 360 dongles were a driver nightmare
