Homebrew Update Required to Play Super Smash Bros Online

[ChopinCJ]

Hello,
I recently installed cfw (luma3ds) on my old 3ds (running 10.7.0), and I had no issues with getting everything up and running. Today, I decided to play Super Smash Bros, since I hadn't played it in many months, and after inserting the cartridge, and opening it from the home menu, a menu box stating that a software update was required popped up.
Since this software update is needed to play online, I perform a quick google search, and find out that I need to update from the Luma3ds Updater, so I open it.
When I do, I'm greeted with the familiar Luma3ds Updater screen, but I notice something odd. The updater says: "You have the latest stable version", meaning that I can't update any further. If I can't update, how am I supposed to play Super Smash Bros online?

If anyone knows what to do, please share.

Thanks!

Are you already on Luma 9?

No, you need a software update for the game, not luma(When opening the game it should prompt you to install a update for the game, just say yes.). You also might need to update the console. Chances are your still running al9h if you havent used your 3ds in a while, if so you should update the newest "exploit", b9s (Its a better al9h). The guide for that is here: https://3ds.guide/a9lh-to-b9s

You should update to B9S.

I'm still on A9LH and its running fine. Haven't had any crashes unless I force it to

Sorry, I didn't explain clearly. I hadn't played Smash in a while; I installed cfw 2 days ago. (I used B9s).

When I try to update the game, I get an error. (Code: 009-1000)

In order to use this service, a system update is required.
To perform a system update, select System Update from Other Settings in System Settings.

Of course, I'm not supposed to update from System Settings (I think).

Of course, you are supposed to update from System Settings

(running 10.7.0)

Unfortunately luma3ds doesn't block system update requirements anymore, you need to be on the latest console firmware version in order to play (11.6.0-39 as of today)

Thankfully, I backed everything up before hacking my 3ds. Does this mean I should delete all of the files, reinstall my backup, update to the latest version, and redo the cfw?

If I restore my backup then do the update, will Nintendo brick my 3ds? (I turned off Spotpass.)
Just have to make sure!

Keep CFW installed, go to System Settings and update.
