OP
I won a New 3DS from one of those stacker arcade machines(Holy crap, I actually did it) and I wanna replace my kinda beat up one with it. Old N3DS has A9LH on latest firmware.

Few questions: What will happen if I system transfer? I do have some games I legitimately bought from the eshop but also dozens I got from freeshop.
Im fairly sure I wont, but will I be able to get A9LH again on the new one?
Also what other risks(if any) are there? Thanks!

It should work fine. In fact from what I've seen if you do an NFIRM downgrade(which requires a 2nd 3ds for a system transfer and an exploitable dsiware game that MUST be bought legit from the eshop ) you can downgeade the 3ds and A9LH it again.

Just in case I'm wrong though please ask around. The guide for method in question is hosted on 3ds.guide so read up on that too.

Click to expand...
The legit ones would transfer, not the others

What firmware does it have?

You can purchase an exploitable DSiware game from the eshop on your A9LH 3DS, you can do a system transfer and then DSiware downgrade to install A9LH on the new one.

https://3ds.guide/dsiware-downgrade

Your games from freeshop won't transfer in a system transfer though. Only ones you have actually purchased. I would backup your saves with JKSM, then do a system transfer with that guide and hack the new one. Then put your games back on and reload the saves.

    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s

  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
