Hacking What is current situation with Gateway and Sky3DS compatibility?

[Vampir]

As far as I understand Sky3DS works with all N3DS (XL) and 3DS (XL) consoles up to the latest firmware (9.8).

What about Gateway 3DS? Does it still require a game (Cubic Ninja) on later software, does it support 9.8?

GW only requires Cubic Ninja/Zelda OOT for the first setup. Then you can downgrade the system settings app to 4.5 to use the profile exploit and boot to gateway emunand.
The problem is that GW doesn't support emunand 9.8.0 on N3DS(in O3DS supports upt to 9.8) only supports upto 9.5.0.

Just to clarify, gateway only works up to System firmware 9.2.

Beyond that, you must use Sky3ds.
