Is it possible to use EmuNAND without having a Gateway card? Also, is there a simpler way to install the 4.5 CFW?

No reason that shouldn't work.

That's what needs testing - is the downgrade solid and genuine - or is it achieved by some software tricks to fool the system into thinking it's an early firmware? One good test of that would be to do an upgrade to an intermediate sysnand firmware (below 9.2) using a genuine cartridge, and not in emunand.

I thought I originally had an account here years ago, but signed up anyway to put in my results:

Have a launch 3DS and attempted the downgrade and was successful. The 3DS has had an issue since the 6.x firmware with not wanting to update via Wi-Fi, (it would error on update) so I could only ever update it with game carts.

It has no hardware mods. I only did it since I had an XL and had a peace of mind to try it out.

Original Firmware from box? 6.1 U
Firmware on Console when downgrading? 6.1 U
Downgrade Successful? YES

This is awesome!

Luigis mansion as well but it cost a bit more

Animal Crossing, Donkey Country Returns and Lego City Undercover as well but I was thinking about price.

Might be worth grabbing a title more in demand for easy resell but if you plan on keeping it just for the sake of downgrading to 4.2 then upgrading to 4.5 then cheaper option maybe better.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
