El gonz. Have you tried a gateway? I am guessing no. So your opinion = shit. Just saying.
No firm protection = Brickway! 'd

A9LH guide has gotten to near one click. Once you are on 9.2 for a new 3ds you can just boot safearm9installer then it will install.
The old 3ds still need the downgrade to 2.1 though.
gateway is not a plug and play flashcard. You need a entry point for it, the same as any other cfw. Sky3DS is kind of plug and play.. you just need to use their tool and then you can play your 'backups' on the latest firmware version!
I'd also like to point out Gateway's 4.5 downgrader caused a incomplete downgrade which gave me errors during my install of arm9loaderhax (injecting FBI into H&S)
also their time machine according to other people is just sysUpdater with their logo on it.
Copying a 3ds game to a sd-card and tapping your screen for 3 times (for profile 'mset') is bloody 'near' plug-and-play.
I never said I hated them. I just think there are free and/or better alternatives.
OMFG finally someone gets it!The situation is pretty simple. If you already have a Gateway, you probably want to keep using your .3ds files that you already have, and probably want to keep using the SD card in the Gateway. I have a 32GB card in my Gateway and 64GB in my console itself - I want to be able to use both.
If you've never had a Gateway, there's obviously no reason to get one anymore, and you don't have any .3ds files anyway.
Here's the thing - it's not an either-or choice. I use BOTH Luma and Gateway. Win-win.
I use gateway to try out games and Luma to actually play the games I wanna play.Here's the thing - it's not an either-or choice. I use BOTH Luma and Gateway. Win-win.
ITT: Butthurt gateway owners. One single point helped me decide. Gateway needs private headers to go online, correct? Otherwise you take a very high risk of a ban. CIAs do not need a header. What's the point of having a piracy tool (with todays free hax available) if you have to PAY for the games to go online? Gateway was once great, but is now severely obsoleted by CFW for everything but cheats.
"Palantine" CFW was available by the end of 2015 if memory serves.
Though that was a shoddy and incomplete work, and a Gateway was still far and away the superior option.
Huh? Butthurt how? Most of them bought it when Gateway was the only actual solution to playing backups.ITT: Butthurt gateway owners. One single point helped me decide.

You mean your own games that you PAYED for?what do you mean with PAY? Privae Headers? No, you can dump then yourself and inject into the .3ds.
big wow you can get a £2 game, if you cant afford that you have more important problems than your 3ds being bannedYou mean your own games that you PAYED for?

On the one side yes..on the other side:You mean your own games that you PAYED for?
maybe..He probably means that as he has no retail 3ds games, he can't dump them. Thus if he wants to play online, he has to pay to someone for a private header dump only he can use.
Butthurt that someone has a negative (albeit misguided) opinion of gateway. Just because he doesnt own it doesnt make him any less entitled to an opinion.Huh? Butthurt how? Most of them bought it when Gateway was the only actual solution to playing backups.
The only thing I see is Gateway Owners who are slightly annoyed someone is ranting on the product when said person hasn't even owned one, or knows the history of the scene.
No one is pushing Gateway3DS here, because their is hardly any good reason to own one, when free CFW solutions exist, and for cheats, while NTR may not be great, it works to an extent.
Edit: So I mean, what's the point of this thread anyways? I mean to stop people from buying Gateway3DS? I mean, I already feel the community here already does a good job of telling people not to bother with one, with the free alternatives of today.
What 3ds games are that cheap? Sorry, but I don't count bargain bin games that no one cares about.big wow you can get a £2 game, if you cant afford that you have more important problems than your 3ds being banned
but again nobody is even arguing the toss about gw being the best,they are just saying they have it so they will still use it, and it still has a few handy features....other than that go completely 100% free cfw, it doesnt make much difference either way, its not like GW users cant hitch a ride on the luma train whenever they want anyway
you say you want a private header....well the game doesnt matter does it? there are a few pointlessly crap dirtch cheap bargain bin games perfect for getting a private header fromButthurt that someone has a negative (albeit misguided) opinion of gateway.

I actually didn't realise you could use a single private header for more games. Thanks for the info! That aside, as previously stated, the risk of ban is higher. Not good in my book.you say you want a private header....well the game doesnt matter does it? there are a few pointlessly crap dirtch cheap bargain bin games perfect for getting a private header from
