Homebrew 3DS keeps asking me to Update is it Safe

Would updating my 3DS stop all my cia games from working ... If so is there a way to get rid of this problem

You recently installed CFW by following the guide if I remember correctly.
https://3ds.hacks.guide/
So you have B9S and latest Luma. This means normal updating is fine.

Yup, just make sure you have the latest boot.firm and you're set.

Oh right thanks for the info! I'm still not updating yet .. I never use it online ever .. & I've only recently hacked my 3ds & added 128 gig of games which took ages....

Since you have Luma and B9S, updating shouldn't really a problem. But since the only purpose of 3DS's updates is breaking exploits, and you mentioned you don't play online, there isn't much of a reason to update.

i actually did update all is fine .... no issues its got me thinking if i buy a 3DS XL ( a pal at work is selling his for $50 with 3 games ) i might just do it all again ... but installing 128 of games took Long Long Long ,,... but i am tempted

If it´s a new 3DS XL and you´ve got a old 3ds, yeah, it worth a lot!

The new versions have a new analog stick, better hardware (battery and screen too).

Sure, the Resident Evil series works well with the C Stick and probably a lot more. Ah, you can even transfer all your content without reinstalling, just follow this: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-...-without-losing-non-legitimate-titles.531950/
