i bought a jap Zelda N3ds and it will be here in the morning and also picked up a red one and i am going to swap the boards and the US board is at 9.0x. I dont know if i should update the N3ds to 9.5x or leave it and just have my stock system as my regular XL. I have the gateway, DSTwo, and a few of DS and 3Ds games. I do own 2 XL's one stock and one at 4.x dual boot

What firmware is the Zelda 3DS currently on? You have zero to gain by updating.

If I were you, I would leave the Zelda 3DS alone until the Gateway supports the N3DS, then switch from your original XL to the N3DS XL as your main console.

Gold Link Between Worlds - 9.5x - Stock with my Nintendo ID and Games
N3ds Majora's Mask - 9.0x - getting in the morning
Pokemon X/Y Blue - 4.4x - I use my gateway

Do NOT update the Majoras Mask 3DS. Good Lord. It's so rare and expensive, updating it would significantly take away from it's value.

Don't update it, if the DSTWO+ is released before gateway update just pick up a DSTWO+ and enjoy. I also have the Majoras mask new 3ds xl 9.0u and own a 3ds 9.2u and my 3DS XL 4.5U. I am waiting for the gateway update till my money comes in at the end of the month then hopefully DSTWO+ preorders/orders will be up. It will reduce its value, the lower the firmware the better as more flash carts can be used and who knows what hacks people will find in the future.

Is this how cart company's work now, sell carts before they work on promises them delay the software release.. You can buy another brand of cart in the mean time. Wouldn't surprise me if they are all owned by the same Company and this is a business plan to sell more carts.

Dstwo+ has not mentioned anything at all regarding n3ds compatibility, so it would be just as dumb to instantly pre-order one of them given that they are most likely just copying the gateway exploits, so you would probably still end up waiting on gateway anyway :P

Moral of the story, stop buying stuff until it does what you want and is actually released and in people's hands :rolleyes:

Probably manufactured by the same company. Team wise, I've heard before that certain members of one team were working with another. I think this was the ps2/ps3 era, can't remember where I read that.

    @Xdqwerty, People who create revival services for the Wii end up in disaster, same goes for Pretendo lol.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    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
