I've seen some people saying you can do this and now I finally have an out of region game I'd love to know how. I've looked around but can't find any answers.. I'd love to be able to take screenshots of my Japanese games though! So thanks for any help.
Homebrew How to play out of Region Games with HANS

Well, first of all, if you don't have homebrew on your 3DS (or CFW), then you should probably check on that first.
If you do have homebrew on your 3DS, all you gotta do is load up the Homebrew Launcher, choose HANS, spoof the region, and hope it works! Thing is that HANS isn't compatible with all games, especially the new ones. The only way to use those out-of-Region games is by waiting for HANS to update for compatibility (although smea hasn't done that in a while), or using CFW.

Well, if you have an o3DS or a 9,5 N3DS, you can use rxTools CFW, since that already comes with out-of-region support.
On the other hand, you can use FreeMultiPatcher as an alternative. It's a .cia app that allows playing out-of-region, as well as a few other things. The only downside is that you have to start it up everytime you want to play an out-of-region game, but it's not much of a problem.
Gotcha, thanks 
I hope if HANS doesn't work the Region Free Launcher will just do the trick, I just thought taking screenshots mightbe nice

What are you trying to achieve? Hans is very old and there's much better ways of doing the same things now.
Well, I put Homebrew on my 3DS, but there wasn’t anything that let me play OoT3D (USA region) on my Australian New 2DS other than HANS.

@Xdqwerty, The Saturn had ROM or RAM carts. Action Replay took advantage of this to play burned games.+1 -

D @ dadadad:I was installing mods for games, but when I removed the romfs folder, an error occurred. Now when I try to launch the game, I see a yellow screen, and I have to reboot the switch. Reinstalling the game didn't help. Can you advise me on what to do to launch the game without mods?

You should find out from the mod dev how to uninstall it. Every mod is different on how you install/uninstall.

D @ dadadad:Is it safe to delete the entire atmosphere folder? I don't remember what else was there, like edizon and tesla menu are installed through atmosphere, is it not a problem, will I not damage the system? There were too many mods, I won’t be able to contact each one, nothing was said about deleting in the description.
