you can remove the parental block with 3DS Explorer if you dont have the code

4.5.0 is great, that's exactly what you want. I must've been misaken - the Animal Crossing 3DS shipped with 5.1, but the update partition must've been 4.5.0 - sorry for the misinformation, I tried to help.

Any tips for when i recieve my gateway? Im new to it so i hope its not so hard to use. Also still debating if i should get a 32gb or 64gb micro sd... i read that 64 is the highest gateway can read is that true?

It can use a 128 GB microSD card, but (for me at least) I got a great deal and paid less money for two 64 GB cards. You can store a lot of games on either one though. The average size to most games is 1-2GB with a few that higher to just give you something to have a ballpark estimate.

As far as tips, just be sure to follow the directions. They included a picture with the install files that does it's job explaining it. Probably the most important thing that I can tell you is this. After you format your emuNAND, NEVER UPDATE IT VIA A CART OR ESHOP. You only want to update it through the system settings option only after confirming that you are on the emuNAND portion (you will see a GW3D in front of the firmware version which tells you that you are on emuNAND.) That cannot be stressed enough as updating it any other way will update the system NAND and kill your exploit. It is also a great idea to keep a copy of your NAND backup (your first NAND backup) in a safe place should you accidentally update the system NAND. This first NAND backup that you make is a direct copy of your system NAND that is on firmware 4.x. It will be the only thing that will let you salvage the exploit should you accidentally update the wrong thing.

So im guessing with the two 64gb cards you have you just switch on n off? (Like insert first 64gbmicro sd.. for first set of games, then take out and insert 2nd 64gb sd card for second set of games that isn't the same as the first) Sorry im asking because the way im thinking of it is that you have some kind of adapter that makes it into one? But proabably not because of it using the gateway card slot. I have no idea what the emuNAND portion of gateway is... but will look into it or proabably will be familiar with it with youtube videos or after i get my gateway.

No. It's like changing carts except instead of carts it's microSD cards and instead of one ROM per cart, you have multiple per microSD. I settled on just using two microSD cards since I got both of them for around 40 bucks (but I will admit that I caught them on sale so you have to keep a watch out.)

Basically, your saying that YES you can use multiple roms per micro sd card. And YES you can use multiple micro sd cards for gateway but one at a time right?

Edit: What brand is your sd cards?

Edit #2: would anyone reccomend this? http://www.ebay.com/itm/64GB-SanDis...US_Cellphone_Memory_Cards&hash=item233a26eb5a

 

[hippy dave]

Yeah you can eject the gateway cart when you're in the emunand system menu, so no problem to pop it out, switch sd cards and stick it back in. Don't need to turn the 3ds off.

No, 22 dollars looks way to cheap for a San-Disc 64GB Mobile Ultra and don't buy of Ebay stick to amazon or a reputable memory online store, you could pick up a fake that looks quite genuine and then be major gutted when you get it! I would want to paying at least minimum 45 dollars for a good genuine 64GB M-SD Card but yes stick with San-Disc models, you are on the rite track there.

I use SanDisk cards myself and have not had any problems with them. I will say that it is usually a good idea to buy your SD cards from an actual retailer (well established online or brick and mortar stores) as opposed to eBay. There are too many instances of counterfeit SD cards that seem to come off of eBay. The moral of the story is that if it sounds like the price is too good to be true, it probably really is too good to be true.

Oh, yeah i read it... took a chance with this ebay card will post feedback

 

[gamesquest1]

pretty much guaranteed to be fake, the fakeSD sellers always switch ebay accounts after a few weeks to hide the negative's when people call them out on selling fakes, which is why a lot of people selling SD card only have hardly any feedback
be sure to test the card using h2testw, pretty sure it will end up being around 8gb spoofed as 64gb

Yeah... has a chinese email (Not trying say anything) but i agree now i think its a fake if anything i can take it up to ebay. Proabably will cancel before it ships.
