If someone could test if a RedNAND (not a Gateway emuNAND) works with the latest cakes on n3ds, that'd help a lot.
Meanwhile, you can use the old cakesfw 99 emunand.cake: https://up1.ca/#m6TFRO3ukLpziMORkhmvbg

...this is why I asked people to test it (surprise: Only one person did).

I would if somebody donated me an EU N3DS (XL) on exploitable FW ;)

I tried this on my old 3DS with firmware 9.0.0-20E and I get a black screen when booting into emuNAND. :(

Latest Cakes (compiled it yesterday) works perfect with EU O3DS XL sysnand 9.2 - Emunand 10.3!

The latest cakes sometime won't boot to emuNAND on N3DS 9.0 / N3DS XL 9.2 and 3DS XL.
I got it on a O3DS and O3DS XL, never had a problem with booting.

Setup:
- O3DS (XL)
- sysnand 9.2
- Emunand 10.3
Boots with MenuHax, then it goes to CTRBootManager where i have choices for Cakes CFW / rxTools CFW / Hombrew Launcher with Grid / Homebrew Launcher / Quick Reboot / Quick Shutdown
On O3DS XL, CTRBootManager autoboots Cakes after 3 seconds, never had a problem booting it. On O3DS it autoboots rxTools (for xorpads etc...).

Is it Cakes 101?

Could you please send me yours? Thanks.

Latest github == 101 (seriously, just go to the repo and read the amount of commits. That's the most recent version number).
I haven't updated since.

As a status update on the n3ds emunand fixing: There is no status update.
Still looking into it. Already tried a few things, and I have a few testers on IRC.

@mid-kid Do you have any ETA for the regionfree? I might donwnload this when that is included.

I haven't even started working in that direction, so no.
It's of really low priority to me, because I just patch the cia of everything I need regionfree (which is just one game as of now, to be zero when it finally goes europe).
I should really update the list in the OP, shouldn't I?

Can anyone point me to a tutorial on how to set up autobooting with Cakes? The forum search function is completely useless. If I search for autoboot tutorial, it returns any thread with the word "tutorial" in it, not just ones with the words "autoboot" AND "tutorial"! (which is like 4 out of 5 threads). And I can't see any "advanced search" button where I could specify the "and". Searching just for autoboot is no good either, as it is mentioned many, many times outside of a tutorial context.

Anyway thanks in advance if anyone could help. Would also like info on how to make games use the faster processor with NTR but I haven't tried searching yet so maybe I'll find it myself.

Should be pretty much the same as rxTools autoboot with Cakes as the payload instead of rxTools

I use CTR Boot Man, and use menuhax to load it instead of hbl. Then I have that autoboot, with a 2 second wait because of my N3DS being a little finicky

    they need to have a strong line up on the launch titles too. I think they should move metroid prime 4 to the next console because by now it has been quite a while and there's no release date scheduled yet
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    lol there's a guy selling mig switch in usa on ebay for $200/ea he's definitely going to get nailed with dmca by tomorrow

    Wasn't Metroid Prime 4 teased all the way back in 2017? For the switch no less?

    Pretty sure anyone buying the switch just for that got duped

    for $200? rofl.
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    well as far as metroid prime 4 is concerned, the next system probably is similar enough to the current gen they can probably easily just slap it onto a next gen cart and call it good :P
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The switch was about 350 in 2017
