@Foxi4 are you holding your review untill the offical release date on Dec 10th?
Nope, it will be out as soon as I have a compatibility chart and mini-guide ready. Not that I expect anything to fail the tests, but I do want to test out-of-region ROMs in addition to the games I have. :)

Proof? If you know it's possible, why have you done it?

I'm calling bullshit on this until I see evidence to the contrary. All I've heard so far is bold claims by nobodies like you.


Look in a mirror next time you want to call someone a nobody. Not everyone publicly takes credit for things. Why have I done it? I didn't. If I did I would release something. People claiming that they did it and aren't releasing it are the people you should be angry with, not me.
 
It *is* possible, just via CFW (for instance Pasta). The only options here are A) modifying the ROMs (not possible due to signature checks) and B) disabling the AP check/spoofing its results (requires kernel access). It won't work on "all firmwares" like the Sky3DS normally does, the hardware is just not capable of faking a check it wasn't designed to fake. Designing, manufacturing and releasing a new design is a costly endeavour, they wouldn't have done it if they could just upgrade the old cartridges, as some users said above.

But all AP games are 9.2+... So a cfw can't be useful at all, I guess?
 
So many things I want for Christmas. Can't believe my plans are now debatable because I have to wait for trusted reviews like foxi to determine if a sky+ is worth getting into my expenses.

Because if it is, I have to explain to my nephew why he's getting coal this year. Budget cuts.

I was thinking along the same lines but if they don't get it to my country until 15 - 20th then with xmas mail here there is no chance of it landing on my door step until January lol.

My phones pretty old and I've been planning to get myself a new Nexus 6p and luckily I'll be able to get it before their next reorder which is scheduled for third week January... Or cancel it for a sky+. But yeah I feel you, here where I live if you order anything around December, they tax you hard. So I'm trying to avoid the urge.

Our savior! :bortz::D
 
Can't you just use a crypto fixed version though?
Last time i checked there was a special case with that game where it would freeze on the 3ds screen reguardless and people were forced to use the language plugin in order for the game to work properly, plus it is the only game that i know of that does not show a logo on the main 3ds menu. That has probably changed by now though.

This is for the europe version. Can't speak for the japanese version of the game.

(Edit)

Yeah, someone managed to fix the game so it does not need the language plug in from ntr cfw and the banner is fixed for the 3ds menu. region patched but fixed for usa consoles only.
All other versions of it still need ntr cfw language plugin. That is for .cia versions. .3ds versions run without the banner logo showing on 3ds menu on gateway 3ds.

will there be a review like the ups and downs from it like the previous ones cuz I'm tempted to buy it for my birthday.
 
Even if on an European 3DS/European emunand?
Most likely someone with a european 3ds with a european emunand will not have that problem since the regions match up. The main people i have seen that have that issue are people using usa and jpn 3ds systems.

The game does not come out until january 22 of next year so you won't be able to buy it until then. As far as reviews go

oh no I meant for the sky3ds+ it self
 
Anyone know how private headers will work with the SKy3DS+ as it doesn't use templates as far as I can see, or am I wrong?
