I bought a 3ds a few days ago. I had looked up the gateway flashcart and decided I'd get one whenever I bought a 3ds. I was on an older firmware (I dont recall which) but I looked up what was the latest firmware on the Nintendo website and it said it was the 9.2.0.20U, decided I'd update since it was supported by gateway. Updated and ended up with 9.3.0.21!

Now I'm guessing im SOL from what I've been reading. I want to Dump my current nand so if there is any gateway support for 9.3, Ill have a backup of the nand. I've been hacking xbox 360s since the original SMC JTAG hack so I'm not worried about the soldering part, I'll probably do a permanent micro usb install for super easy nand read/write. Ok here are my questions:

1. How ****ed am I by being on 9.3?
2. Can I back up my current 9.3 nand, get a second 3ds, extract 2nd nand, use the second nand as a donor to the first nand's CPU key (or whatever it uses)?
3. I have a fully working Japan motherboard coming in the mail. If I swap motherboards will it play my 3ds games (from the USA)? If it's on a compatible firmware can I use the gateway flashcart with it?
4. Does gateway support original NDS games/GBA games or can I use an original R4-revolution card with the 3ds to play original games or emulators.

After the 8th of April, will it still be possible to create a new NNID (Nintendo Network ID) and/or transfer a NNID from one console to another?

Is it possible...?

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Try Wood firmware
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, why?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    good night
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
