Hacking Professor Layton DLC Daily Puzzles on Gateway

[VLopes]

Hi guys, i just recently got my Gateway and i can't wait to play the Professor Layton titles on my 3DS. (Miracle Mask, Azran Legacies and vs. Phoenix Wirght)

The thing is, i want to be able to download the daily puzzles post game if possible and i'm not sure i'll be able to do so. Do i have to convert my roms from 3ds to 3dz (with a private header of course) to be able to go online and download the puzzles? Is cia a better option for this? Has anybody tested this and downloaded the daily puzzles? Is it even possible?

I'd love to know this BEFORE i start my gameplay on the games, since i can only play the daily puzzles in postgame and i won't be able to convert my rom again withouth losing my save, so help.

But you can play daily puzzles, just save the game and quit.

You can convert your rom without losing your save

Oh, really? For all 3 games? In that case it should be way more easy to do the testing.

Thanks for pointing me to the guide. Turns out i was outdated about this stuff. I need to do some more reading.

One last question, in order for me to download the new puzzles (and DLC episodes in PLvsPW) i have to be on the latest firmware via emunand, right? They're not by any chance in some separate online server that doesn't require me to go into eShop, are they? Cause that would save me some trouble, since i'm afraid of being banned.

Actually the only games that i'm interested in the online stuff are those 3, that's why i'm asking so many questions about it.

Only for the crossover you need to finish the game in order to unlock the extra stuff (which is downloadable by the way)

EDIT: As far as I know, the 2 Layton games don't go to eshop when you download stuff. It just connects and downloads.
