Hello! I'm new to the community, but I know GBATemp to be a good site. I've been using it for a while, though I never really partook in the community itself.
Anyways, on with the real content of my question: I'm in the market for buying a 3DS, and I want to get an opinion out of people in the community. I'm between getting an old 3DS XL with a system software of 4.5, so that I may use Gateway, and the other option of holding out a bit for a New 3DS that I've heard will be coming to the US early 2015.
Here lies the real meat of what I'm wondering: do any of you think that there will be a hack developed that would be similar to Gateway that could perhaps work on the New 3DS? I know a DS flashcart (such as DSTWO or R4) would manage some stuff, but not playing 3DS game backups. The other main question being, do any of you think that there will be a large amount of games developed exclusively for the New 3DS? I know that Xenosaga is being developed for just the New 3DS, and that Super Smash Bros. is exclusively using the new C-Stick, so that would be a bit concerning if I decided to get the older 3DS.
So what do you all think? This isn't just me being concerned with what one to get, but I'm also wondering if there is a bit of concern over this in the community.
Thanks!
