Hey guys! I have a 2DS and i recently got my gateway card. I followed this guide (linked at the bottom) and everything is working smoothly. The only problem that i've encountered is that i can't play Pokemon Alpha Sapphire or Omega Ruby and i looked this up and most people said it was because my EmuNAND is not up to date.
So i was looking at the english manual on the Gateway 3DS website in the EmuNAND Setup section and i saw that it said this:
"Insert a blank SD card with only the Launcher.dat on it into your 3DS/2DS. It is recommended you use at least a 16GB capacity or higher, formatted as FAT32, so that you have plenty of room to install games and downloadable content in the future."
I had a few questions about this first, won't the games be installing onto my microSD card? Why would i need such a large SD card? I have a 32 GB microSD card and so space isn't an issue on there, but in the guide it says i should have a larger SD card.
Second, does this have to be an entirely different SD card from the one that i first used to first launch into Gateway mode? Can't i just remove the files (the 2ds folder) besides the Launcher.dat and put them on my desktop? Will that work or will i need an entirely new SD card for this? I don't understand why i couldn't just use the original SD card.
Here is a link to the guide i followed if that helps in anyway -
Here is a link to the gateway 3ds english manual - http://scmods.com/gw_guide/v3.1.pdf
And my gateway SysNAND is currently on version 6.0 if that is of any help.
Any and all help is immensely appreciated !
