Ive bought a 3DS XL and the acekard2i about 1½ month ago which came with what i presume is either 4.1 or 4.2 compatibility.

Ive had the XL for around 2 weeks on my shelf now unpacked and im fed up with the update for 4.3.0-10 not coming yet ive been checking their official site/forum & gbatemp like 7-8 times daily in this period lol. Im wondering is it possible to use the acekard on older firmwares of the console itself ? the XL is on its default firmware which im presuming is around 3.0 something on purchase i havent updated it yet, or is it only useable on a device that has 4.1/4.2 which the Acekard is currently on. I bought the card fro ma retailer btw preinstalled i think i just need to download that AKAIO thing from the official site

All right I have to admit your text is too squished together and not properly punctuated, and I didn't find it comfortable to read.

From what I understood, you want to run an updated AceKard on a 3DS XL with pretty old firmware? Sure it works. Don't worry.

Just be sure to use the latest firmware of AK2i avaiable: http://www.acekard.com/download/ak2/ak2ifw_update_3ds42_dsi144.zip
You should use Akaio 1.9.0: http://www.akaio.net/forum/download/file.php?id=235

thanks for the help guys it works flawlessly :3 I dont know why i never thought about just using a older Acekard2i firmware since the machine came with 3.1.0-6E, i just think i didnt wanna risk anything, till the new update got released after reading so much about the latest updates. Btw im not sure what firmware my acekard is compatible with, there doesnt seem to be anything mentioning it on the AKAIO menu on the 3DS. The game icon is being shown as "Deep Labyrinth - Digital Bros" though

btw sorry about my first post i wrote it pretty late in the night. After reading it this afternoon i noticed how exhausting it was to read :D

    That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But you still don't know what it was?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Has he had seizures before?
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    apparently stress can cause seizures, my brother had one during a test once
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had one before that, and never had one since
