Both need a Kexploit... the best thing you have access to is Save Editing Emulating... assuming Cubic will even run homebrew (ASLR?)

But you have a DSTWO, so it would be better to run games with that. It has everything most people would want to emulate with homebrew (GBA/SNES)

Downgrading requires an arm9 exploit.

Want to know a little-known, sekret way to soft-downgrade?

Buy fieldrunners on the a9lh system.
Install dsiwarehaxx
System transfer it to the 11.0 system
Find fwtool 1.6.0
Dump your nand and then follow the 11.0 FIRM downgrading procedure.

I'm not going to hand-hold you through all the tiny details. Not enough patience for it.

Don't update your console -.- If it's below 11.0 then you dont even need a second 3ds to do it.
I have two consoles, I don"t really want CFW but if really works it"ll be easy since I can use the other console, but I will like to downgrade to 10.3 for can use the patched Homebrew that use svcbackdoor, I don"t have a problem in buying the game, System Transfer to another sytem, install dsiwarehaxx and then System Transfer again and install 10.7 NATIVE_FIRM and downgrade to 10.3 since I have SmileBBASIC ready to download in my Home Menu.
But I"m not sure because mostly I don"t know I"m not sure if this works with the actually avalible game to download in the eShop. I don"t really complain about make all that work if I"m honest. Did actually avalible game in the eShop to buy works to do this?

Tux!

One thing worth noting, is that a system transfer can only be performed once every 7 days.

Very clever though. inb4 nintendo makes an update where downgrading FIRM using this method ( and/or hard mod) is impossible, by enforcing minimum FIRM on system menu, error display. They don't have to remove any dsiware.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii

    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    not really

    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
