Shortcuts to what ?
Yeah maybe that was a bad way to put it. Not really shortcuts... modifiers. I.e. press such and such on the D pad to do something. I swear I saw one once to shut down the system from the GW menu, for instance.
Shortcuts to what ?
I just got my gateway, how do I know what firmware is on it?
Fresh N3DS.
I have never seen a list but b +dpad down shuts it off I think. It is listed in the manual. Dpad up when entering GW mode disables to rom update block. There is another one for downgrading, but I can't recal it.Yeah maybe that was a bad way to put it. Not really shortcuts... modifiers. I.e. press such and such on the D pad to do something.

Your gateway isn't on any firmware. You put whatever version of launcher.dat you want on the sd card, and you can check your version of Emunand the same way as sysnand. With 3.0 there was some update that needed to be applied to the GW but launcher.dat took care of that.I should have been more clear, how do I know what firmware my Gateway is on. I already know my N3DS is on 9.0.
Do you think people would buy them if they didn't have to?
The solution is to earn some money and buy one.I'm gonna be stuck for a while.

Don't do anything until you are sure of the path. The problem is the browser cannot be updated from cart. Also taking Emunand straight from 4.x to 9.x can have problems. You are going to need to spend a lot of time reading up here on all the latest happenings.
Hi guys, its very confusing for me.
I bought a brand new new Nintendo 3ds xl today (Ver 9.7.0-25E).
Is it possible for me to initialize the flashcard or is it still only possible with fw 4.5?
Thanks, kind regards
Are there any disadvantages for me using sky3ds?
Saudi is a long way from the Philippines, might want to change your profile. I have no clue as to the legality but gateway has two Saudi resellers on their website.Earning the money is a minor problem. If I had an easy access to the flashcarts I would have bought them already. The only ones I see around is the Galaxy Eagle i and the R4i. One doesn't run on my current system both don't play 3ds games. Buying Gateway or Sky3ds online might be a problem, I havent checked yet but it might be considered illegal here in Saudi when it goes through customs.
What you have to understand is this is all as much a hobby as a practical solution for many of us. NIt is said that the happiest day in a boat owners life is the day he sells his boat. Plan on spending as much time researching and keeping up on things as you do playing games if you want to get the most out of your card. This very thread is a good place to learn the basics. The tutorials section is good as well. Then just start reading the posts and look for topics you want to learn more about.Can you suggest a place to start reading? With all the changes it has become a bit overwhelming.
Thanks again.
Gateway works on 9.2 and below now. You best bet is to return the 9.7 console and look for a 9.2 or below.Hi guys, its very confusing for me.

No clue. Try asking over in the games sub as those slackers might know more than us propeller heads.Will bravely second be on new 3ds or Old 3ds, or both?
I suppose that sky3ds will be up-to-date all time, like Gateway, don't they?It is likely to be blocked in a future firmware, and if that happens you will be stuck never updating your 3ds if you want to continue using it.

Won't Gateway release an update to work on 9.7.0 too?
If I get a 9.2.0 console, I would still not be able to use the flashcard, because it has to be initialized before, at fw 4.5?!
I can't see in which way being on 9.2.0 is an advantage to me?
In addition to that, I bought my console yesterday in a store, not on the Internet. So it's really difficult to return the console now.
Thanks guys.
I dont see why not, the redcard only has 3ds roms on it so, there shouldn't be any conflict.Probably stupid question: can I have the NDS files for the blue card and the red card files on the same micro SD, using one for both the GW cards and switching between them whenever I need them, without breaking anything?
