lol as i said, 3DS won't brick unless you try to hard mod and fail, or if you try to edit things on your sysNAND from Gateway with uncompatible things.
1) Please explain this question because i don't understand.
2) You only need to download the lastest Launcher.dat, and if it needs to update your flashcard, then it tells you to do it and it does it for you.

Backuping system NAND doesn't need internet. You only need internet to open Launcher.dat, and if you're gonna get the New 3DS, then you need to check the firmware. It needs to be on 9.0-9.2 and not higher. I recommend getting the New 3DS, but the only problem is that you'll need Cubic Ninja to open Gateway Launcher on the New 3DS. If you're gonna get the new 3ds, check the serial number with this guide to get 9.0 or 9.2 http://gbatemp.net/threads/n3ds-xl-firmware-by-version-number.381479/
