It is. It's a proprietary one. It still patches a native firm, and makes alterations to the firmware so it fits the bill.Pretty sure Gateway isn't CFW
It's a shame that people who haven't even tried Gateway hate it because of false rumors and bad features that don't need to affect them. For example, the GW A9LH installation is hell. It's a bad feature. What can you do about this? It's real simple: Don't use this feature. Another thing I see people say is that Gateway ripped off of the community. However, it was one of the first CFWs. Luma is a fork of reiNand and no one gets mad. Another complaint is the price. It varies from anywhere between $25 and $90. Of course it'll be "expensive" if you choose to buy it from an expensive place. Wait for a cheaper price to come around or make money from using it. Above I said my Gateway paid for itself 5 times because I know how to make codes using Gateway before NTR was anywhere near it. Codes --> videos --> ads --> money. Also I've seen people mad about the brick code. It only bricks people who deserve it and (correct me if I'm wrong) not a single user was bricked who didn't deserve it. I would be mad too if I developed a CFW and flashcard and then someone else took all the money I could have made from it and used the exact same software I developed. I'm not really sticking up for Gateway because of the lack of 11.3 support but I just wanted some people to know this
My version of Luma but with more options, since I was fed up of its mandatory regionfree patches - yet it not having the "force TestMenu" oneWhat in the hell is Puma33DS?
Flame wars are unnecessarywithout starting a flame war, it's a pretty bad practice to punish the unbeknownst public of a clone card by bricking their actual 3ds, then lying about it. NOBODY deserved to have their personal hardware destroyed over a butt-blasted flashcard maker.
It's understandable to make your own firmware compatible with your own devices, but you don't attack the consumer who may have no idea.
I don't rally against gateway by any means, they're just REALLY shady. Could you imagine if there was a wood firmware that bricked people's r4's and told them they got what they deserved? no, because a responsible firmware programmer lists limitations and warnings, they don't insert system bricking code, lie about it, then go into damage control mode when it malfunctions and bricks a legit cartridge (which i think happened to one of the mods here if i recall)
Don't defend them.
i don't understand why anyone would use a cia for a game. tikdevil+eshop is where it's atI tried pushing so hard for a .3DS loader for CFW, but no one was having it. Everyone is just too busy jerking off to Luma+CIA to actually want anything done in the community.
Have fun when the eshop closes and you don't have your, uhhh, BACKUP games to install anymorei don't understand why anyone would use a cia for a game. tikdevil+eshop is where it's at
i have a few backup plansHave fun when the eshop closes and you don't have your, uhhh, BACKUP games to install anymore
