Gaming Nintendo 3DS System Update

[SamAsh07]

Just to be pedantic, handheld systems like the 3DS aren't really 'PAL' or 'NTSC', because those are TV standards. Though as a hang-over from home-consoles, region locks often follow the same pattern, so I guess you could call a 3DS a "PAL region system" just because it's from somewhere that uses the PAL TV format (Which is already pretty irrelevant, seeing as pretty much any TV over here made in the last decade will be able to handle both formats). But the screen formats on the American, European and Japanese 3DS are all the same and none of them have any relation to the PAL or NTSC standards.

Thanks for that. I'm used to calling everything this way xD So I'll stick to it.

@chris888222 - That really is disturbing lol, there should be a Nintendo Of Asia & Middle East

Trying to update from time to time. Still "This system is up to date."

I got the spotpass notification that the update is ready (complete with a Ridge Racer warning), but whenever I try to update, it says the system is up to date.

Dammit why put the message out if the update isn't ready?

 

[mdlmemorybank]

so after this update the 3ds will auto update from now on , hmmm that will make it harder for homebrew i would imagine

It actually says that the update should be available in the evening.

At least, that's what my message said.

If they seriously would automatically update the 3DS, why did Nintendo make instructions on how to update in their books, and as a video?
In that video, they even mention to do it every time.

Got the SpotPass notification saying that it will be ready for download on June 7th with the Ridge Racer warning.

 

[tajio]

I got the notification of sadness (NOS) as well

7th of June for UK and maybe Europe... Dunno about the US and Canada.

Yeah, I have to wait til morning at best. If the update kicks in at midnight I'll activate it then. If not I'll have to wait til I get home from work. But provided I get my DOA Dimensions DLC every day I don't really care, to be honest. The store would be a nice addition if there was anything noteworthy on it, like a Starfox 64 demo or something. But as it is there's little to make the update worthwhile for me aside from curiousity.

 

[Scott-105]

I got the update notice too. It says evening of today.

Also, we get Excitebike free

 

[Seaking]
