The site i'm looking at says my 2ds has to be on 9.2 firmware to use the flashcard i'm looking at the gateway card. is this true is there a card i can use? thanks
Sky3DS+ can work on the latest FW. Gateway 3DS requires your firmware to be on 9.2/9.0 to launch through your homebrew exploit of choice. If you have Cubic Ninja, you can use that to gain access to homebrew as main entry point, then downgrade from there.
ok so i should be buying the sky3ds+ then. do you know a trustworthy site to buy from that isn't going to rip me off. thank you for the help — Posts automatically merged - Please don't double post! — I'm not screwing around with trying to downgrade i bricked my old 3ds trying to do that lol that's why i had to buy this one.
You'll have to be be on 9.2 to use that flashcard. That means downgrading. And you might consider A9LH over Gateway. Gateway generated the Soon(tm) joke as they'd always say they have new features soon, but never show up.
There's http://nds-card.com/ GBAtemp's official supporter. But the cart is pretty costly. You can always buy Cubic Ninja, then use it to downgrade and install a free CFW.
If it makes you feel better, 99% of bricks are user error. If you do manage to brick, you can always get a hardmod and save your console.
So I can downgrade from 10.7 with Cubic Ninja? Using what method? Last time I tried to do this is was so confusing
It's become a lot safer and almost brick-proof. All the current downgraders have safety checks, that check all of the CIA files to ensure they are the right ones before install them. From there, it's just waiting for it to do it's down thing and not touch it, closing it, or turning it off. Cubic Ninja is the method https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki
You can do it from 10.7. You could buy Cubic Ninja at an insane price, or you could buy a powersaves device and a copy of Nintendo Selects Ocarina of Time and use OoTHax.
3ds flash cards are a waste of money since you can downgrade get cfw and a9lh and convent roms into cias only ds flash cards are worth it since 3ds cannot play ds roms with out a flash card yet
