3DS MUST BE THE GREATEST HANDHELD SO FAR,IN TERMS OF PLAYABILITY AND THE NUMBER OF THE COPIES SOLD

K just updated to it and for some reason the new firmware is still on but it seems like i will have to do this again because homebrew is not on the menu

1. Navigate to hblauncher_loader.cia and press A to install
2. Navigate to lumaupdate_1.2.0.cia and press A to install
3. Exit with the home button
4. Launch the HomeBrew Launcher from the home menu icon at least once to download the payload

and the cias i downloaded need reinstalled correct?


edit so far it seems like everything is working and i can log into my account now, but i had to do thoes steps over again to get home brew on the menu and reinstall my cias and i also didn't need to update because it was already on 1133 for some reason.

Is this normal?

edit 2 so far everything is working now so i would say so now lol..

but i wanted to say thanks again pbanj! i wouldve been lost on what to do if you haven't told me i can re flash the old emu lol

Compare the sales figures of the 3ds and that of the original DMG Gameboy and say that again...

u R RIGHT,in terms of playability.
But still,the sale is strong and cannot be compared to Gameboy 'cause 3DS r much more costly.

The price of the original GB was $89,99.

Adjusted for inflation that is ~$170, which is not that much cheaper than the 3DS is now.

EDiT: either way, DS sales are pretty much triple of that of the 3DS.

Agreed but it is not the same as before.It's much easier to sell a handheld at that time.
But still,agree that I wasn't right at the start.The words were exaggerated.

So can I update my EmuNAND with Luma3DS to 11.0 if I don't have a9lh?

I just think it's the best video game system ever made, its ability to do glasses free 3D on classic SEGA and nintendo games is gold. And 3D shovel night? Seriously, how great is that game!

 

[astronautlevel]

I just think it's the best video game system ever made, largely due to its ability to do glasses free 3D.

tbh its 3d features are only good if you're some kind of masochist who enjoys eye stress

Unless you're on N3DS. With the original 3DS it was horrible.

Perhaps so with O3DS, I have the new 3ds and had it not been for the 3D I wouldn't of purchased the system. I just feel that there is too much of the same old thing happening in video game developer land and the 3d was a much sought after new experience to be had.

Anyone care to commit on IOS and Android ? Who here thinks freemium is a disease that will kill mobile gaming on ios and android! (sorry, no one has to answer that, i am really off topic now

Thank you TuxSH and Aurora for the updates, latest stuff working very well

In my case with my n3ds, I have some game where the 3D dont work, double all thing, not usable at all !
Game where it doesn't work: Bravely Default and MH4U. To be more precise, in the title screen, the 3D is really cool, in the cinematics (for MH4U, the TRUE cinematics, not those little when you see a monster for the first time) are in 3D and my eyes dont bleed.
Its really annoying

Well I found an oily screen from fingerprints is enough to cause bad ghosting! As crazy as this sounds, if your experiencing ghosting try cleaning the screen with some alcohol and you will see an improvement.

Well I'll try, but 3D works in other game (like smash), or even in the home menu, the game banner (the thing in the top screen ) is in 3D too :/

Try it, games are impacted by this differently

I cannot get Luma3DS to boot from homebrew. I have access to the homebrew through menuhax. I was following Plailect's guide to install Al9h. All was good up to part 4 step 26 when it asks to boot Luma3DS or any other cfw. When I try to launch Luma it just reboots my n3DS xl. Before I started the guide, I had ReiNand. I am wondering if somehow that is interferring with the booting process? I have no idea. I am very newb at all this so please be easy on me.

Forgot to add: I can no longer boot ReiNand either, it just reboots 3DS as well.

Things I have tried:

1). downloaded the newest Luma3DS v5.4. Put luma folder on root of SD card. Copied Luma3DS folder to /3ds/ directory. Copied both Luma3DS.dat and arm9loaderhax.bin to root of sd card.
