or another possibility is a DSTWO and the region patcher, but it cant be used currently due to the brick code, unless someones released a fixed version.

If I were you, I wouldn't wait and hope that a 3DS emulator is released anytime soon. No one really knows what'll happen. For something more concrete, it might be worth it to just save up some money for a few months (or however long you'd need) and buy a 4.1-4.5 3DS or 3DS XL with a 3DS flashcart. Personally, I think the 3DS flashcart scene is going to take off really soon, and you'll definitely want to come along for the ride :)

If you mean retail carts, I'm pretty sure you can (never tried it myself, so can't be 100% sure). If you mean ROMs from a different region, then you definitely can.

I have a 3ds XL with 4.5 firm but can it play JAP imports (None eng)?

If you use MT Card's latest firmware, you can play retail carts region-free. I'm able to play my US copies of 3DS games (Pokemon Y, SM3D Land, MK7 and so on) as well as my Japanese games (Project Mirai, Project Mirai 2) on my Japanese 3DS.

By this, I meant with a 3DS flashcart. I was responding from experience with a Gateway flashcart, as it's the only one I own.

Has anyone downloaded the program and tried it yet?. I'm not sure I want to hit download in case it destroys my lappy :(

Ergh slight problem with this, Lol:-

There is one last thing you need to do before you can start playing your favorite games and that is to have the BIOS of Nintendo 3DS in your PC. Using the copy of BIOS is prohibited that’s why if 3DS Emulator needs original BIOS otherwise it will not work.

After you have fixed every little thing way up, it is possible to run 3DS & DS ROMS using this 3DS Emulator.

Im thinking about buying a gateway and yes i mean roms that have been "dumped" do you think it will work on my US 3ds?

If you use GW2.0b1 without setting up EmuNAND, you should be able to play any region of 3DS ROM, sans a few games that don't work on Gateway (Animal Crossing, Pokemon). If you do set up EmuNAND, you'll only be able to play ROMs for your 3DS region. I wouldn't recommend using GW2.0b2 because it has the ability to brick your 3DS.

Couldn't say. There's no source code and I'm on GNU/Linux. No source, no use. B-)

Haven't you read the rest of the thread ?

What wrong apart from what I said up above but it does say the Bios is contained in the rar package if you click on the download box. Go too FAQ you can download Bios files from there. Sorry link does not work. OK the pictures are of SMBU on the Wii U but still has anyone tried to see if it works?

What's wrong is the fact that it's been determined in the second post of the thread that this is a fake site, so downloading anything from here could potentially be bad news for your PC. If you're nervous about trying it, what makes you think others won't be? If you're curious, download it yourself. :)

I just want to play cardfight vanguard :(


If ur 3DS is 4.1-4.5 firmware then u can do:

A) Get a Gateway and play the rom of the game(if its dumped)
B) Get any DS flashcard and use the region free hack (there's a bricking chance but Gateway team said that they are gonna make their own Region Free Hack which probably won't have the brick code in itself)

Atm the latest gateway firmware has bricking code and it should be fixed in the 2.0 Final version( IT SHOULD idk if its gonna).
The older firmware of Gateway doesn't have the brick code so you could use the older version but idk if ur game will work with it.

No way man I'm not trying it but the OP has brought the subject up first and why did he not give it ago before he even started the thread its a waste unless your not prepared to give it ago to post results on whether it works or not!

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
