I got a Zelda XL 3DS for christmas as a gift along with Pokemon Y. However, I was interested in getting a flashcard for my 3DS. After a lot of reading, most of the cards only work on versions of 4 - 4.5. My 3DS will not be compatible with these since it comes with a 6.2 version from what I have read online, and I had to update to download the Zelda ALBW.
So my question is, what options do I have for getting a flashcard? Which ones have people tried on this specific 3DS or other ones version 6.2 onward, if any?
I really don´t want to buy another 3DS just for using the flashcard right now as it would be a sort of waste to have gotten this 3DS XL.

I checked some local stores in my country and they have R4ITT, I did not ask if that card would work on my 3DS but It may not be the most reliable flashcard. I can check other local stores to see what other brands they have. If it comes to worse, or through recomendations, I can buy a flashcard online and have it shipped to either the US or Canada but it would be inconvinient since I only have relatives and friends there and would take months to recieve the card.

 

Just get a dstwo and have fun.

 

The DSTWO is a DS Mode flashcard with an embedded CPU which allows it to run applications like a GBA Emulator, a SNES Emulator, some cool ingame features, a Videoplayer which supports avi until 640x480p. and some other cool features. It gets the fastest 3DS compatibility updates.
3DS mode flashcards don't work on your firmware yet, sorry.

 

I doubt an eploit will ever exist in the near future to play on 5.0 and above, Ninti stopped that but like the chappy above me said you should of researched before hand but you can always do what I did swap it for another 3DS with a bit of extra cash involved down your local CEX or whichever store near you does that sort of thing and choose a nice shinny 3DS with the rite FW on it happy days!!! I did that with both my 3DS XL and my Aqua 3DS with very little extra cash on top but I suppose I might of just been very lucky at the time?

 

I believe that every active team will be interested in the 3DS mode, so the 5.0 version and above will be hacked sooner or later
anyway, r4i gold 3ds card http://www.r4flashcart.com/8-wood-r4i-gold-3ds-flashcart-for-3ds-xl-3ds-dsi-and-ds-lite.html is hands down the best flashcart for the latest version 3ds if you just want to play DS games

 

Theres no point speculating on when a new exploit will be found. We simply don't know. Think back to when the 3DS first came out and there was a heap of threads asking when will the 3DS be hacked.

 

Aren't they running out of time though I'm pretty sure yoshis new island will need 7.0 firmware to run and won't be playable on gateway...hence why Kirby hasn't been released

 

Highley doubt it maybe yoshis new island but Kirby highley doubt it won't have SDK 7.0

 

Nope word is Nintendo put a new key in games that require SDK 7.0 and up making gateway useless

 

What difference would online or offline make if the new keys are in the firmware itself that requires to run the gm
