2 questions- updating to 4.1-4.5 FW and SDHC memory card.

I picked up a Ver. 1.1.0-OU 3DS for $99 at radioshack a few days ago. I have a Gateway in the mail. Do I need to buy a game from this list to get it to a usable FW version:
http://www.eurasia.nu/wiki/index.php/3DS_Games_with_firmware_updates_in_the_4.1_-_4.5_range

Is there another way to this?
Does it matter if I put it on $.1 or 4.5 or is it all the same as long as I have it between 4.1 and 4.5?
Is there a cheapo game that is recommended since I don't plan on buying anything this old for my collection?
Is there a great game I should get instead (paper mario)?

Good memory cards for newer 3DS backups?

Any reason to get the 32 over the 16? IS the multirom sweet enough that it is worth getting a 32 gig?

Thanks in advance from an old timer.

Thanks for the reply. The searchable site provides more options than the eurasia list.

So I assume this means:
  • I do have to get a cart with the correct firmware update on it
  • any version 4.1.0U- 4.5.0U is equally good
I bought the 32GB Samsung Plus Class 10 UHS-1 SDHC Memory Card (MB-SPBGC/AM) on sale for $14.99 from the slickdeals thread. I hope this does the job.
Thanks again.

I'm a Gateway user with a FAT32 microsd card, and for the first time I've encountered games with file sizes bigger than four gigs. What exactly is the process to go about reducing or splitting these file sizes? Thanks.

I would suggest you format your microsd card to ExFat, so that you can copy files bigger than 4gb.

Yes, those were what I meant. You're welcome.

What do you guys use to install multiple roms on Gateway 2.2? I'm trying with Win32DiskImager, but when I put the cartridge in the 3DS nothing shows up.

I believe you press it when at the main menu under Gateway mode.

    @SylverReZ, the reasons i said that you deleting your pronouns page was sad is bc when i made my account i realized there was more info when you put "en" before the "pronouns" part in the url of the website and that meant i didnt see all the info on your page, and also bc i would have added you to my circle
