I have n3ds xl with 9.9 and a sky3ds card. Since there is no way to install cfw to 9.9 should I update my firmware? Or should I wait on 9.9?

definitely stay. 10.2 and 10.3 have patched several of the exploit entry points.

For instance one of the best entry points is menuhax/themehax for homebrew, if you update you will lose that.

My N3DS is on 10.1 and I am staying there so I can keep the menuhax.

I would update. If/when a new kernel exploit appears. It will most likely support the latest firmware. I would update everything between 9.3-10.2.

Good luck! :)

the answer is almost always wait. generally speaking the older the firmware the better the odds. so if you can wait, wait.

I wouldn't. Menuhax is great and if a kernel exploit arises, I'd bet it will be compatible with 9.9.
Unless you want eShop, that is.

Thanks for answer people. I mean we can install cfw up to 9.2, somehow if they hack newer versions which firmwares will be luckier? 10.x's or 9.x's?

    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive

    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
