So, finally decided to yolo and downgrade and luckily enough it went perfectly on the first try. Sadly, I'm not well versed in the whole homebrew scene and was hoping to a few tips on how I get started with installing stuff to start playing .cia files. From what I've gathered from comments here and there, it seems I need rxtools and emuNAND? Googled a bit baout cia files and saw something called FBI that lets me install it. I'm quite confused and not completly sure what to start, so I was hoping one of you could write me shortly what I should do to get started.

I can access the Homebrew menu through Ninjahax and I've got that set up already.

Edit: I'm using a N3DS

You can start enjoying it by looking up other threads before making a new one! ;) There's like, IDK, 3 or 4 other threads based on; " Downgraded, now what?" Or, "Now at 9.2. What CFW should I use...? "

There are all sorts of tutorials that deal with how to set up custom firmware and emunand. This one's pretty nice:

https://www.reddit.com/r/3dshacks/comments/44pmob/updated_tutorial_for_hasslefree_downgrading/

Since you've already downgraded, just skip ahead to the parts that deal with what comes after.

Getting into this can from scratch be a bit overwhelming. So instead of piecing everything together yourself, you should follow a tutorial. I like this one: http://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial...luding-emunand-coldboot-cia-installer.405589/
I've successfully completed it on two different systems.

Thank you very much, gonna take a look!

Don't get me wrong, I do buy the games I enjoy (Pokemon, Bravely and Fire Emblem), but living in EU getting games 10000 years after US is not a fun thing.
Haha, I know. Just kidding around.

I recommend rxTools CFW. They just added N3DS 10.5 EmuNAND Support like 20 hours ago.
