OK, I just checked. It shows up as two things, HID-compliant device and USB Input Device. Both just use standard ordinary drivers.

The odd thing is that it does show up as Datel Powersaves when you plug it in for the first time, but once Windows installs the drivers it turns "generic"

Hope that helps

So it doesnt work on Windows 8?

And to be sure I have a 2DS on the latest Firmware 7x. Will this Datel thing work on the latest firmware?

And I read that I have to start the game to apply the Hacks is that true? Cuz its not actually an Action Replay its a PowerSave Am I right?

Thanks, that does help. I may just try and pick one up some time soon.

Windows version is irrelevant with HID devices because they all use the same generic drivers, data is transferred as messages sent and received by the interfacing software. Basically, as long as the software installs and runs on Windows 8 the hardware should work too.

For those using Windows 8, and your game cannot be detected,
you might want to consider trying these settings
(right-click > Properties > Compatibility tab):

<If Possible, select "Change settings for all users">

Compatibility Mode
[✓] Run this program in compatibility mode for:
[Windows Vista (Service Pack 2)]


Privilege Level
[✓]Run this program as an administrator


Even though it's a different program, these settings managed to fix my usage of R4i dongle.

So does this work with 3DS firmware 7.1.1.0-15 and Pokemon X/Y version 1.2? If so, I'll definitely will get one.

Just for testing :tpi:

I was right about what I predicted earlier. 3DS Powersaves now supports Animal Crossing: New Leaf! :)

I am not sure about firmware, I am on version 7.1.1.0-12 or whatever it is. I do have the game update though

Can someone confirm if Y works with latest firmware? I believe it is 7.1.1.0-15
