If you use different SD cards for the same Gateway, then you'll end up deleting your saves. There's literally no point in multiple SD cards, at least at this time with the information we know.The point is that i can save myself from spending 100.000$ because i just want to play some games.
Everyone can say whatever, but for me, this is a good thing, even without Homebrew, which will be available soon.
Not bunch of microSD's, just 4 of them. 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB that's all the cards you need.
You can keep ROM's in your PC and just swap them as you need them. and you can hawe 4 different games at the time.
At least it's easier than Buying 40$ ~ 80$ game, not to mention faster.
Either way you play one game at the time, till you finish it, no need to jump from title to title. (R4 spoiled us )
I mean considering situation with GATEWAY. I mean, you got to make the best of it it is as it is now.
Maybe in the future it will be different in terms of multiple ROM's on 1 microSD, but now, it's like this.
But yeah, i agree about SAVE's. The ONLY REAL problem as i see it, would be if you simply CAN'T backup your SAVE files from GATEWAY.
that would be a big bummer.
I'm sure i wouldn't like to finish my RE: revelations 80% and play a different game and then when i feel like i want to return to RE: revelations and finish it 100%...
But nooo how can i, because i didn't backed up my SAVE file, because how can i, and now i have to start ALL from the freaking Beginning!
Now THAT's A BUMMER IMO!
Well, if everyone closes their eyes, and wishes REAL hard, Gateway will make their card better soon and/or people will make a new one with a loader and everything.....Really?
No homebrew. OK. Well it can play backups.
Wait, can I dump my backups from the store onto it?
...probably not?
Oh, and it only holds a single game at a time?
So this is literally ONLY a piracy tool and we're hopping behind it?
Now, shovelware will come either way, and yada yada yada. (seriously, go look in walmart) I'm not arguing piracy is bad.... but the only thing this cart will load is 3ds roms, one at a time. No convenience angle, costs more than a 3ds game, and I've purchased every 3ds game I wanted to play (stupidly, almost all on the 3ds store; I really DO NOT like having to change freaking cards)
seriously, a single game at a time is nothing more that extremely rudimentary piracy.
I can't be the only one hoping for Tyrian3D and other neat stuff with the 3ds's wizardpowers, can I?
Here is question that we still waiting - if Gateway is simple mimic hardware of legit card it probably will be blocked fast.
I think those are sould out for quite some time now.
your only option is used
Can we find someone who understands Chinese to see what that actually does? I can't tell if R4i Gold 3DS Updater is a program, a new (function of a) flashcard, or what.R4i Gold Team released a new product - R4i Gold 3DS Updater today, see details: http://www.r4ids.cn/r4ids-e.htm .
Seems it's possible to play backup on a gateway 3DS card..

The Gateway 3DS will be available very soon, so stay tuned on our site!
No, of course I'm super happy to see advances, but this just seems weak, can't even go around regionlock yet, so.... it's JUST piracy. you can't even pretend you want to use this for legal and cool things.
This thing is straight up a law-breaking device, no questions asked. This might be a step in a dangerous direction for the legality of importing this sort of device.
