Currently have r4i gold 3ds deluxe running on version 2 software.
I tried to play online but it wants me to update my 3ds software. Is there a way I can play online using the r4i gold 3ds deluxe card?

If you don't have an emunand already set up with the Mario Kart software update there's nothing you can do currently. Not even Gateway would let you play online with it until they release support for the latest firmware on emunand.

you can't atm until gateway release a fix for 9.0 compatibility so you can get the eshop update.......as an alternative there is a version of mario kart available that has the eshop patch build in, so search 3ds.essh.co there is a us version and EU version labled V1, they dont need a update to play online

would I need a gateway to work with that version of mk7?
nope, works on any card

just for the record some of the info here about updating emunand etc doesnt apply to R4, it may not apply for a very long time if ever, as they dont have 7.x encryption so newer emunand version dont work for them (iirc they have removed emunand now.....not sure if they added it back again though).....but regardless its fairly useless on R4 atm

Did you change the extension to 3dz? But I'm not sure if r4i gold 3ds deluxe can read 3dz roms.

Yep don't forget to change the extention to .3dz after you've injected a header.

USA carts should work online on an EUR console. Classic mode is region free, and Gateway supports the latest firmware now, you should be able to update and play.

I updated but not working? PAL eshop update can't recognise us game :S

You can't update through the EU eshop, but there's a rom with the update out there already, a USA one. That does work with an EU 3DS as it already has the update and works perfectly fine online.

yeah...i think he wants to use his old save it would all depend on if his cart was one with the update built in or not....im guessing if he is having issues its not in which case he wouldnt be able to use his save even if he tried to switch to a rom with the 1.1 update built in as the saves don't work between the revisions

Maybe you can find a save in another thread with all the stuff youve unlocked? I don't know what vr points are, anyways they're you're only options I believe sorry.

Oh right. Forgot about that. Well, you can dump your save and game, and inject the header from it into the ROM that includes the update so you will be able to use your own save.
Edit: If gamesquest1 is correct, then that wouldn't help you. Bummer I guess.

    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous
    +3
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol
    +3
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted
    +2
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves
