Hello all. Just curious if it's possible to dump and install apps like Mii Plaza on a different region 3ds? I have a JP N3DS and once gateway supports it it would be cool to install my NTSC Mii Plaza on it to keep my streetpass data and the likes.

I know cearp is working on a region changer but there's no news on when that will ever be out so I'm not gonna hold my breath and wait on that.

Sorry for the double post but just wanted to update on this. Been playing around and downloading different region apps such as Mii Plaza but they didn't work when I installed them. I just get a black screen/freeze. I tried a EUR and a JP version. JP Face Raiders worked fine. Activity Log didn't work either.

how are you downloading the apps? what version are the apps, what fw are you on, etc
I'm using 3DNUS to download them. The apps are usually the 6.0 firmware ones such as v5121 for the JPN Mii Plaza app. I'm installing these to EMUnand 9.4.0-21U. I tried using your UpdateCDN app to download them for firmwares like 9.0 but was only getting 40030 applets with that. I made sure they weren't any New3ds software that I was installing.

Hard to say anything without knowing what setup you have configured to access emunand.

hmm, for stuff i tested it worked, but i didn't try every single app, maybe some of them don't work... but i don't see why they wouldn't, if there was a region problem gw should have fixed that...

    @NinStar, I miss Iwata. He was a great asset to Nintendo.

    he was a great asset to gaming over all. He were a great programmer. He probably made the launch of Pokemon to even come true, thanks to his custom compression for the games to fit on a gameboy cartridge.

    now that's an interesting question
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa I have a xbox question
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    what would be a reason why a 360 would turn off right away
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Ok shoot
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    I had not used it in months, worked fine back them, then I tried using again and it shuts off after a minute at the most
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most likely its overheating, prob needs new thermal paste on cpu/ gpu. That stuff after years dries up become crusty n no longer works to transfer the heat.
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    besides that could there be other reasons?
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa I was thinking of running the bad update to get the dvd key then use to flash the dvd drive
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Doesn't sound like it if it worked fine before, other things to check is visually check USB and hdmi (if it has) ports for damage.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Other possibility is a bad power supply block. I'd start with replacing thermal paste, cause if you never have, it definitely needs new paste.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Tencent just injected a shit ton of money on Ubisoft and got way more rights to the IPs.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Guess things were worse than they wanted to let others know
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @salazarcosplay When it shuts off on its own, does the power supply light show red or orange light? If its red, most likely bad power supply. Orange is normal off, green when powered on, red is a fault.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Everyone's giving that game repo attention and it just feels like an among us clone
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Even after turning on, then wait for it to power off on its own, then what color? If orange then normal. I'd start with repaste. Most likely just overheating.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Damn this sounds good https://a.co/d/062jnbn
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv3, Dates, butter, n salt be better. Of course you've prob never had a date tho.
