Just a word of warning! As you would expect, updating Streetpass Plaza removes all games not legitimately bought.

However now it invalidates the cia to reinstall them.

Hopefully at some point there will be an updated cia at that ISO site, but as it stands if you update now you will lose your unpaid for games with no way of getting them back.

Wow, scary. Am I interpreting this correctly, it invalidates them as in the titles just won't be able to be reinstalled for now? My dumps, and worst of all, the saves just going poof would definitely make for a terrible, terrible experience to say the least.

Is this for people who have a9lh as well?

Also, is this true for legit CIAs as well?

This is the first I have heard about this all day. I wonder why nobody is talking about it.

The system that I've been using the past bit is on A9LH and Luma. I installed my backup of Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, and it's working just fine. Even after restarting the system, the game works, and the save is still there. Everything seems to be normal.

I'm using CIAngel, and I can't seem to find any of the streetpass games. :(

Any idea what I should be searching for?

0004008c00020800 (JPN)
0004008c00021800 (USA)
0004008c00021800 (EUR)

I don't know if Ciangel supports DLC, but those are the correct title ids...

No issue here using a9lh, Puma33DS v7, EUR Plaza v4 update and dlc cias, then updating in-app...

Is there any confirmation at all on this?

Rationally thinking, it's very hard to explaing why a specific title (which is not the kernel or one of its modules) would affect title installation in any way...
...maybe he got some "malware" (deliberately corrupted) cia from "somewhere"?

Yeah, I think it's bullcrap... How would the CIA be invalidated from installation, without some sort of system update to check owned titles or the like?

Yeah, it seems kind of odd that so far we only have ONE report. Figured this would have been outed as news by new?

    "So if the person who told me June release is all but confirmed to be correct, then that could mean the pricing they gave me of $449/$499 USD might also be correct. Think the $50 extra is a Mario Kart Bundle."
