At the moment, you'll have to wait until they translate it. Once they do, you'll need a Gateway compatible 3DS and a Gateway card (or a clone). Then you'll need a ROM of Decode, which you can get from the Decode cartridge using the Gateway software, and then patch that ROM using XDelta.

Gateway Compatible 3ds... ?

well according to their site they got it working with 9.2 or 9.4...I think
The Gateway people say that the next version of their software, version 2.8, will work with 3DSs running 9.2 and below. Whether or not all the features will work and things like that are more than I can say, not having access to the closed beta, but assuming it works the way my 4.5 3DS does, it's pretty easy to set up and has all the features I could want. Once the new version goes live we'll make another video if our patch works with it, which as far as we know, it should.

I wish It'd be that simple for me... I'd have to spend money on a new 3ds to be able to get that...

glad to read this ! So you have about half done of the translation for the 3ds release ! Can't wait to see that
I'd put the 3DS release at an optimistic 20%. A lot of the strings are identical, and we've ported those already, but there's a lot of things that are different, even where the plot is broadly similar. Plus there will inevitably be some ASM hacking that has to be done, not my area, but that kind of thing can sometimes take only a few minutes to do seemingly complicated things, and sometimes take weeks to solve apparently simple things, so that's a major variable. I wouldn't expect that we'll be done with Decode in less than a year, even if everything goes exactly according to the plan, which I wouldn't plan on.

3DS uses ARM11 in addition to DS-specific ARM assembly code, so actually having a working 3DS emulator with a competent debugger will be needed to do anything close to assembly hacking (Citra now begun to support a loading screen in Zelda OoT 3DS, but that's still a long way to go until proper emulation of at least in-game portions of Re: Digitize with the text engine and little else). Or the involvement of an emu dev who's comfortable reading direct memory feed and doing what's like looking for a needle in an ocean. Has been done before for PS3 for cheat codes, but not as extensively as this one requires.

Stuff beyond basic file swapping and hex/graphic edition is quite the big undertaking as far as the 3DS is concerned.
I can only wish good luck to all involved and hope the existing programming in the 3DS version is already good enough for an English version without the need for ASM.

    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?

    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign

    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It literally turns it on.
