Hi all,

I used to use a CycloDS with the original DS loved it. But haven't followed the scene with 3ds. I'm now going to buy a 3DS what would you guys suggest on my research so far it seems to come down to Sky3ds or Gateway.

I'm just wanting to play single play offline games i'm imagining if this helps.

Cheers

If you get a Old3DS/New3DS with firmwares 9.2 or below, get Gateway. However, if you get a New3DS, you will have to WAIT for Gateway to release an update for the New3DS, but for the Old3DS you don't have to wait. But you will get tons of features like region-free, .cia installation (DLC, themes, updates, etc.), homebrew support, play modified roms (undubs, fan-translations, mods, etc.), EmuNAND, Multi-rom menu, etc.

If you get a Old3DS/New3DS with firmwares 9.3 or above, get Sky3DS (blue button). You don't have to wait for anything and Sky3DS works on firmwares 9.2 and below. However, you won't get any of the features that Gateway has and you can only play roms that are part of the same region as your 3DS. So if your 3DS is from Europe, then you can only play EUR 3DS roms. There is regionthree that you can use for "region-free" but it won't work for all games like Majora's Mask 3D and I think it only works on the Old3DS.

Simple as that.

    Can you believe I've never played any Half Life game, or the Orange box. Been meaning to, I own it, just haven't played it yet.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Wow, I never knew that. You should totally play Half Life. Great game, I tell ya.

    Played a little Portal way back, but didn't care for it. Should give it another go.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Oh god, Portal. I got stuck in the middle of making a portal on a wall, and trying not die in the pit. Can't remember what level it was, but this was a decade ago. It just feels too difficult.

    First few levels you know what you're supposed to do, but afterwards, they don't tell you otherwise, you have to memorize everything.

    Since I'm not touching fake Japan asscreed, I'll be giving a try to Valhalla. I bought it on release but never played it. X

    They should've continued making Rabbids games before they fall off the earth. If Nintendo has Super Mario, then Rabbids should be their mascot for all their games. Make a lot of money.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Skelletonike, Valhalla was pretty good, slow at first but gets better as goes. Not quite as good as Origins or Odyssey tho, imo
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    The game has so many options, many pointless, but no option to change the audio settings? I like when I can put the sound to work better with a soundbar or stereo equipment, I think previous games had it? Weird
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I really like origins for the world itself.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    But not as an assassins creed
