Maybe you could add up to which release number it has been tested, and which games are untested.
When a new game is dumped, it doesn't means it's working until it's tested and properly added to the incompatibility list.

edit:
I added the untested games to the first post. As they weren't listed at all, users could have thought they were working fine.
 
Untested (R4i Gold 3DS Deluxe 2.0&3.3b / Gateway Firmware 1.2):
529 - Professor_Layton_und_das_Vermaechtnis_von_Aslant_GER_3DS-ABSTRAKT
550 - Shingeki_no_Kyoujin_-_Jinrui_Saigo_no_Tsubasa_JPN_3DS-Kirin
573 - Daigasso_Band_Brothers_P_JPN_3DS-Kirin
598 - Professor.Layton.and.the.Azran.Legacy.EUR.3DS-BigBlueBox
610 - Professeur.Layton.et.Lheritage.des.Aslantes.FRA.3DS-CONTRAST
614 - Cloudy_with_a_Chance_of_Meatballs_2_3DS-VENOM
617 - Medarot.Dual.Kabuto.Ver.JPN.3DS-BigBlueBox

You can add Shingeki_no_Kyoujin_-_Jinrui_Saigo_no_Tsubasa_JPN_3DS-Kirin as a ROM that only works on R4i Gold 3DS Deluxe 3.0-3.2 / Gateway Firmware 2.0B1-2.0B2 (instead of untested). I tested it and it works fine on these firmwares. It initially gives an error like "could not save to SD card" but it subsequently saves fine and I have been able to reload my save after closing the game and transfer the save data to my PC without problems.

You may also want to include R4i Gold 3DS Deluxe 3.0 / Gateway 2.0B1 within the first list, since games requiring SDK 5.x will work on those firmwares and people might like to know that there is an option to play those games and not be at risk of bricking (especially R4i users.)

The purpose of this list is not to list "working" games, but games not working.

We know that it works on 2.x, but Did you test Kyoujin on v1.2 ?
 
Just want to mention the compatibility with GW 2.0b1 seems to be much the same as the one in GW 2.0b2.
Adventure Time and Mario Party both work on b1.

Yes, it's an SDK 5.x game so it won't work on 1.2. It gives a "game cart was removed" error. Technically I tested it on R4i Gold 3DS Deluxe 3.3b (since I don't have a Gateway) but it should be the same with GW 1.2. To clarify, I tested it on 3.3b and it doesn't work. I then tested it on 3.0 and it works.

can anyone test if One piece romance dawn ( Eu for me , I guess the newer NA release will fail too) is incompatible with 1.2/2.0? it gives me the " game card has been removed" error and it's not the sd fault or anything else since I have played other games in that sd and in fact I have reformatted it and put another game again and it works too ( also tried to put one piece again but still doesn't work)
 
If you get that error then it's probably not working on 1.2
All games should work fine using 2.0b1 (and 2.0b2) unless it's a Card2 game.
 
yes I took a leap of faith and used launcher 3.0 , it works there.

Game not as good as I thought , the rpg is pretty nice but they tell you the story from the beginning and that's veeeeeeery boring to watch.

May start playing some 3.0 games when I have beat some others that don't need it . Didn't have a problem with 3.0 other than failing 2-3 times in a row to load the exploit LOL

Be careful though. 3.0 likes to delete your save games randomly. You might put in 10 or more hours into a game, then the next time you load the game it's gone. Just warning you of the risks... your situation may vary.
 
afaik you can check if that problem is going to happen by pressing home +x after the game loads before playing for a long time. If it exits properly it wont happen until you close the 3ds
 
I can't quit New Super Mario Bros 2 properly.
If I don't save ingame and press Home->X , no problem. (but when I restart the game, it says me that the saves are corrupted and erases the files)
If I save (when the game ask you to save) and press Home+X , the screen freez, goes black and then turn my 3DS off.

I have a 3DS XL, gateway firmaware 2.01b and installed the emunand but did not update it (since 2.01b and emunand 7.1 don't match verry well)
Is the game known to be incompatible?
Maybe I have to update the emunand? in that case how to update only in 7.0 and not in 7.1 ?
 
i've played link between worlds eur on 2.0 r4i, so not sure if the same for usa or not, just wanted to let you know.
