@CuriousTommy
I'll not answer your questions, you can find most answers here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/japan-n3ds-plailects-guide-with-region-change.430071/ especially the last post.
But i'll recommend: if japanese is really a problem (even knowing that you already have a 3ds with the exact same menus and you can find multiple video guide online to set-up):
you can buy an Australian pal n3ds, play asia sells some, and i saw here too (+15 aus$ shipping).
Also you should be aware of import taxes, here in France it can be very costly, i'm not aware of how your contry/state works.

Also if your japanese n3ds is 8.1j, it will be quite difficult/pricey to upgrade and access homebrew.
8.1j is japan only, you won't have this problem with australian 3ds, and most likely be good to go without a game because i've never heard of a n3ds beeing on anything >10.5
Thanks! Look's like I didn't search far enough! Look's like I should look into the import tax policy in the US. I am going to see if there is a black version available.

Yeah, although I am use to the 3DS menu, there may be some stuff that I forgot how to do, and I rather have my 3DS explain to me in english then use google translator.

You could look to import from amazon.fr the black one. Shouldn't be that hard to figure out how to navigate and checkout.

Wow i didn't know you could do that on Amazon !
If i try to order an n3ds XL from Amazon US it costs me 196$, with import fees and shipping, i wonder how much is it the other way

Edit: wait no it's 196 + 50$ tax and shipping !

For me, living in the US, to import from amazon.fr, it would be EUR 131.91 for the black N3DS + EUR 13,76 for the lowest priced shipping. So EUR 145,67 for it all. So around USD 167.67. Which isn't too bad imo. Since Play-Asia only stocks the white N3DS in PAL/EUR for USD 170.00 plus around USD 16 for shipping, so around 186.00 USD

Of course, prices will vary from person to person I guess.

I have an old gateway 3DS which I'm going to system transfer over to a New 3DS running A9LH. Before I can do that, however, I need to update my gateway emunand to 11.

Will Gateway 3.7.1 Launcher support firmware 11.0, or do I need the 4.0 Beta to run 11.0 firmware?
