Hacking Some games won't update, even manually.

[Cyber Akuma]

I am having trouble updating some of my games that were converted to install-able format. Most of my games whether I am launching them from their original disk or installed can tell if there is an update and download/install it. However, I can into five games that did not. I checked and there are apparently updates for them on Nintendo's servers. I even removed the DNS update-block just to be safe, but it can't tell that there are updates available.

So I tried just manually installing the updates myself.... but this didn't seem to work. The updates installed, but when I launched the games, while most of them didn't have a way of telling you, I noticed that one of them which does have a version number was still saying version 1.0. The five games are:

Tokyo Mirage Sessions - Says Version 1.0
Kirby - Don't see a way to check version
Devil's Third - Don't see a way to check version
Mario Party 10 - Don't see a way to check version
Mario and Sonic 2016 - - Don't see a way to check version

Any idea why it would not update? Are the updates maybe only for a specific region of the game or something? Or is there some special procedure to installing updates manually to get them to work?

can't you just grab the Updates ... using USB Helper

That's what I tried, as I said though, it seems like the updates aren't being recognized once installed that way.

Do u have dns blocking in Internet settings?
If you set to auto obtain and are hooked to the internet then I believe when u start the game u will get a notice. There might actually be a tell when on icon before u select it but I forget

And as for when dl the updates are they same region and on same location as games

I was having issues with some games finding updates but failing to download them when I was using the DNS blocking, even if I used NNU-Patcher, so I actually turned off the DNS-block for now temporarily and am connecting directly. All of the times which detected an update was available had no issue downloading and installing the updates when I removed the DNS block.

However, the 5 games I listed didn't even DETECT an update was available, which is why I tried to install them manually using that USB download helper.

Yeh with dns blocking on it won’t detect update or beable to dl them.
As for turning it to auto and it still not updating idk. Maybe uninstall game then reinstall and see if after u have any luck
