This is only something I've heard and several people have said that the DLC worked when they used Gateway. For me, I region-changed my EmuNAND to Japanese and the DLC worked just fine with no problems with the .cia version of the game.You guys have been really helpful thanks. I actually do have a Gateway card but switched to custom firmware because it seems more robust at this point. If I were to use Gateway and launch the DLC it should work then, since they use the same EMUNAND correct? I think I will give that a whirl. Thanks everyone. (and dungeon crawler)
