Hacking Gateway 3DS working on the New Nintendo 3DS.

[TheNintendoEnthusiast]

When this is released, I will definitely buy one

 

[Silentsurvivor]

I actually hope they wait until the New 3DS releases in NA/Europe. Mainly because I'm broke right now and could barely buy the card - if they wait until then I could get an N3DS to go with it.

There's always the possibility of Nintendo patching it before it's even out though... If it has anything to do with ninjhax for example.

I'm really nervous to see how this will unfold.

Might have been already mentioned but:
Sky3DS may not be as F*CKED as we think.
Nintendo will most likely patch this kernel exploit. And if Sky3DS does turn out to be 1:1 copy of a retail game, then it should be unblockable.
Thus, if you have a 9.3 or higher 3DS/N3DS, and you don't want to buy a 4.5 or a 9.2 3DS, then Sky3DS could have some value if they remove the 10 game limit.

Yep, you're fine.
U is just the region, in this case U.S.
Mine is 9.2.0-20E, which matches the flag shown under my Avatar.
Make sure to turn off spotpass and wifi!

Owh yes it is believe me. As far as I know they use the leaked 9.x keys to trick the console a real game is inserted. As soon as Nintendo updates its firmware Sky3ds will no longer be usable. ( speculating )

Sky3DS was fucked the moment they put that arbitrary 10 game limit on their card. Imagine if it was $30 cheaper and had no limit. There'd be some actual competition.

Could you check if its genuine?

That's the first thing I did and it is =)

The board is actually green, it only looks dark on the picture.

Maybe off topic but how do I disable automatic updates on my Nintendo 2DS? I don't want anything happening to it while I get my Gateway flash card.

Hmm? You say that Nintendo keys got leaked and Sky3DS are using them to run their cartridge? I've never heard of that. Source?

Turn off Wi-Fi and SpotPass.

Don't forget the video where someone managed to run more than 10 games on it.
If they remove the limit, I'll put aside their history. I don't buy based on company loyalty, I buy based on product quality.

Something I posted a few pages back:


Also,

There are many examples, but I'll take fire emblem awakening for this example.

1. Fire Emblem Awakening was released in April 19, 2013 in Europe.
2. This game has 4.5 firmware In the PAL release.
3. 4.5 was released in December 4, 2012 in Europe.

The game was released in 2013, yet it used a patch that was released in 2012.
It may be Europe only, But it seems updates are not relevant to the date of manufacture of the cartridge.

Conclusion: There may be a retail cartridge released later that might contain 9.0.0 update.

But we didn't know about gateway back then. :/

Turn off Wi-Fi.

Well I would like the wi-fi to be on at times. Any other methods?

Well it seems genuine enough to me
Was it nicely wrapped when you received it?

Its the most logical thing I could think of. And I wrote at the end that I was speculating so I basically have no proof.

But now they knew the threat of gateway and still made the same mistake of releasing a buggy firmware.

It's to difficult to release a perfect firm without any bug.
If that was possible who would need firm updates?

I'm thinking of getting a new 3DS because of this now, correct me if I'm wrong but at this point emuNAND isn't even needed because we can install updates via .cia if we need to play online. But if a newer encryption is released for later games then it will be needed.

It was in a bubble wrap envelope.

What exactly is ".cia"? Does that allow you to put a game on the SD Card and use it without the Gateway in the system?

The reason I ask is because I'm interested in importing a New 3DS and since this would allow region free, I'm hoping to dump any games I buy in the US and put them on the SD.

 

[SushiKing]

Hey im kinda new at this but what does this actually mean? That the 3ds is finally hacked and can play everything just like the nds with the R4??

Thats right, It's also not needed because GW now works on the latest firmware update

On 4.5's It did after booting into gateway mode, It wont on 9.2 without being in gateway mode because if it did then nobody would have to buy a gateway card.

I'm actually more excited about my shipment of 2 Galaxy S5's are on the way to my door than my Gateway 3ds card and 3ds xl arriving later this week.

Whilst it isn't much, this is what they said about Emu NAND on 9.X
