Homebrew What specific carts do I look for if I want to update a US 3DS to 9.2?

[RemixDeluxe]

Someone in another topic I made said to look for a cart with AXCE152-352 but if I recall correctly 9.2 was available when the game released so wouldnt a launch copy be good too or would the firmware be too early?


Also is there currently any way to install CIA files and use CFW on System Menu versions above 9.2 or when using ninjhax2/tubehax/ironhax. Also how do I install CIAs and when will I be able to do it.

I was told using the search function of the site and using Google is for losers so I thought why not ask for the 12th time this week in case there was some breakthrough.

If you update, you go to the latest update which is 10.3. its that simple

Game Carts dont affect updates

Again you cant update to whatever firmware you want. unless the launch date 3ds was NEVER touched at all, its not possible

Your aware some 3DS games come packed with an firmware installer that asks you to update before play the game. Right?

Game Carts dont affect updates

you can if you use game cards, as they contain updates. all of them do. but they don't update NVer, or the last part of the version (i.e. 10.3.0-28).

Super Smash Bros 3DS

Only those serials will work, the original one was manufactured before 9.2. I don't think there are any other games that will have 9.0/9.2 on them but you can check http://3dsdb.com to make sure. EU has a few different games that update to 9.0/9.2 but US only has that one AFAIK.

I looked at the link, what am I suppose to be looking for? It just looks like a list of rom dumps from scene releases.

You can search for the firmware version. But I just checked and Smash is still the only one.

I searched for 9.2 on US games and I found that one Super Smash game which has 9.2

How does this tell me what serials to look for? I'm not planning to download a rom and use it on a flashcart I was hoping to get a copy of the game to use on the 3DS instead.

From what I understand it seems to be the 7th digit that determines the firmware. As long as its a 2 it should be enough to update to 9.2

 

[RemixDeluxe]

I just want a confirmation if what I said is correct.

 

[jaksy]

I honestly don't think anyone knows.

So far, the distinguishing mark is DI instead of DS in the green area, or possibly the serial number.

Was previously the leading theory, but I own a DP cart that has 9.2 and that's neither DS or DI, and zoogie reported a DS that was at 9.2.
So from the best I can GUESS, you might be right and the serial number's 2 or 1 is the leading indicator, but I'd also crossreference the ▼ lettering hoping for a DI, as no one has reported a pre 9.2 ▼DI in that thread yet.

edit:
There's also this thread for additional information.

Zoogie claims the following:

So it appears the 9.2 update is any batch from AXCE152 to AXCE352 inclusive.
Don't buy the game if it's not in that range.

Is it not possible to use 3dnus and sysupdater anymore?
