Could be anything but is most likely bellow 9.2.

so a gateway card will work on it right?

Gateway SHOULD work on it if it's still at 9.2. Anything above that and you may be waiting awhile to see if they'll update it.

Where are you buying from? Can they verify the sn for you?

I was just wondering that?. I'm going to buy one from the grainger games very soon but does anyone know what Firmware they come on in the UK?, has anyone bought one yet in the UK. I'm getting the Metallic Blue one

As far as I know only 3 different serial numbers have shipped new with 9.3+ on them. They are all red in the US

Most definitely below 9.2 if its brand new.
Gateway will work fine and you can even downgrade to 4.5

I don't think you can downgrade the NewN3DS's, not possible I would imagine. I will just have to take my adapter with me and ask the shop assistant nicely if I can check before I buy one cause I would be screwing if I bought it home and it was on 9.5 cause I doubt very much they would give you a refund if you took it back and said its no good because it wont work with a gateway card, I think they would look at me like WTF???.

OP isnt very clear.

edit:

Its not called "ICE WHITE"
thats the version name of the old 3ds. Am sure the op means original 3ds
