Wow I can't believe it thank you all for help me through this I was getting frustrated with this whole thing.

Yes. Rather you can install cias (which are eshop titles), you can't play the .3ds files.
What's the difference between .3ds and .cia?

.3ds is rom (read only memory) .cia is a install-able rom
Ok but what differentiates the 2 like why would you use one or the other? Also does CIA just mean it won't be installed onto the home menu. Can you explain a little more please. Sorry I'm a little mew

.3ds requires a flashcard to be loaded on the 3ds and a private header to be injected into it

.cia files install like eshop games and do not require a private header or a flashcard

Ok last question. I know where to get 3ds rooms. Are they already .cia or do I have to convert them?
if i was you i would get the cia files not the rom files you can get the files all ready in cia format.

It's amazing how now we can get full access to homebrew on 11.2 now there is no need to downgrade. Thank you everyone for your help with this issue I had. There is one last issue that I want to take care of though. What if a game has an update like smash bros or Pokemon what do I do then?

the best thing to do is use freeshop . . . you gotta find it on that iso site
but you can do game updates from the eshop . . . but be warned when you enter the eshop any dlc you have pirated will be uninstalled
or you can look for the updates in cia format

    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
