Nothing really new just some more games BUT they did add a save data transfer tool app. And another specifically for monster hunterCould that maybe be used for exploit?

You probably should have referenced the new firmware 3DS version 5.1.0-11 update in the title, not the eShop.

Somebody already mentioned it in the proper thread, but nobody noticed/cared.

Indeed, it was silly of me.
And a new thread is going to be noticed more then a single post in an already cluttered thread.

Care to actually list everything the news said so i can add it to the thread?
Also save data transfer had been in there previously (Atleast for PAL regions)

You can request a mod to change the thread title.

I agree with you on the new thread per update idea, it takes too long for people to notice the old "catch all" threads. New thread for new news.

 

[Metab.]

don't you mean 4/4/2013?

For ausfags its the 5th.

For ausfags its the 5th.

I guess that's why it explains the date being day/month/year instead of month/day/year

Changed the title.

Personally I'm not going to mind a new thread per update since updates don't even come weekly (so the forum isn't exactly cluttered), the old one's not a sticky and doesn't have the info in it anyways, and like Snailface said people are going to be looking for topics with the specific version, etc.

Thanks for the thread title change.
Hope that clears things up for people.
And if anyone can update and list any and every changes via PM or comment here that would be great.
