Well that might be problematic. My 3DS can access eshop just fine being on 9.4 emunand, but what if there won't be emunand after the update? My N3DS is on 9.0. And as far as I recall you can't access eshop unless you have the current FW version.I don't think it is necessary for the handheld you're transferring from. Someone should confirm on this.
