Hacking DStwo noob question

[Acampbell128]

Im in the market for a DStwo for my 3ds, My 3ds is already on the 6.2 firmware, is there any way to update the firmware on the DStwo, or is it a paper weight til i find someone with a ds/3ds on a lower firmware. I don't want to waste money on something i can potentially not use.

Yes, it is possible, but not recommended.
So when you update the next time, update DSTWO before updating the 3DS.

Another option is, is to ask if the DSTWO can be updated before it is sent.

Thank you, I went ahead and ordered one. Hopefully its got the latest firmware.

What I meant was ask them to update it before they send it to you.

I asked the seller to update it before they sent it. They stated they updated it and tested it on a DS, but didn't have a 3ds to test it on. I'll know for sure on Monday when it gets here.

So another question. Got the dstwo in. Ran the updates anyways. Is it normal to have to spam the A button when powering up the console? That seems to be the only way I can get the dstwo to load without the error.

u shoulden't have any error's when booting the 3ds up as u dont have auto boot mode on a 3ds

it doesn't give me an error on booting of the system, but upon opening the dstwo from the menu.

I've yet to have any issues with my DsTwo on my 3DS XL, all updates are up to date and no issues at all.

Try reinstalling the EOS.
