So, I wish they'd release what they have so far, seeing as 9.5 emunand will probably take months on the N3DS, I would still like to be able to do anything at the moment with the gateway card!

Chances are that they'll release what they have, although there's also the possibility that they'll wait until people can do a full system update in emuNAND as well.

Since 9.5 uses a new encryption scheme I think we are months away from a legitimate N3DS 9.5+ emuNAND release. They will likely release their N3DS support without 9.5 emuNAND support unless someone cracks the encryption key before they do.

As long as the N3DS EUR is 9.2 or below, Gateway will allow you to use all the features everybody enjoys now with emuNAND up to 9.4. That means region-free, backing up your carts, playing online, installing .cias, etc. You can keep your emuNAND on 9.0 if you want and still play online and such, the features don't change. Also, you don't need Region3 with Gateway, everything is already region free in emuNAND.

Thanks so much for clearing that up, much appreciated

I cannot wait till Feb 13th, Should I order a Gateway now or wait till the update actually comes out?

Id say we are max 2 weeks away before n3ds support Today news is a close call!

I can imagine that we have a DSi kinda situation here.

We will probably be able to play 3DS games forever, even if they never manage to give us 9.5+ support and even if they are encrypted with newer keys, because they said that the old 3DS series won't ever have this problem, so if those consoles can play it, N3DS will play them too ... because if the old ones can run them, they can also decrypt them and this is everything we would need for a N3DS < 9.5.

But what I mean about the DSi situation is that there will be exclusive games for the N3DS which will most likely be encrypted with keys, that are stored in the encrypted FW area we don't have the keys for yet (keyslot 0x16).
I don't know about N3DS specific features within normal 3DS games (like NFC etc.) but I can see similarities to the DSi dilemma back then.

My friend, you might be right.

Definitely months away now, but it looks like they should just release what they have plus the new feature they were referring to. Downgrading was actually THE BEST NEWS AND FEATURE, I am definitely curious what this will be. Oh well back to playing OoT.

 

[MrJason005]

are there any side effects of downgrading?
you'll lose themes, demos you downloaded can no longer be played, NNID, anything else i should note before i downgrade?

I think that some saves might not be compatible either

 

[MrJason005]

i heard that there are some problems with NNID that when you create an emuNAND, it can not login with the nnid

Downgrading was the best thing Gateway has done, that is true. Thank God I didnt have anything to lose by downgrading. No eShop stuff, nothing. I was just a guinea pig console that came out 10x better in the end.

DOWN GOES THE PRICE OF 4.x systems

Well I imagine 4.x systems just stopped being sold as rare commodities when Gateway released support for 5.x to 9.2.

 

[Maximilious]

I have no problem running 9.2 sysNAND on my system. Nintendo Update servers blocked in firewall and I have no problem launching the web exploit - And GO! Gateway is a great app for those on the road moments. I also don't want to deal with the 7.x save encryption issue, looks like more work than it's worth and would rather avoid having to deal with that.

I am however disappointed I can't create xorpads for ROM's I'd rather have in CIA, that no CIA is openly available for currently.

Now that GW fucked up the time frame and 9.5 won't be supported as emunand on N3DS, I have a simple question:

How the fuck will N3DS owners be able to install emunand 9.4 now that 9.5 is online?

 

[Liberty]

How the fuck will N3DS owners be able to install emunand 9.4 now that 9.5 is online?

They won't. Much more important: How am I gonna do a system transfer now?

 

[weatMod]

They won't. Much more important: How am I gonna do a system transfer now?

Maybe with cearps cdn tile FW install

 

[sparrowreal]

I finally yielded and my sky arrives tomorrow. I´ll see how the gateway emunand thing unfolds while playing.

 

[TheShadowRunner]

You won't. GW fucked every N3DS owner with the "wait for US launch" delay.
Fuck.

 

[MrJason005]

Well, they will eventually deliver...
But, not now

 

[tony_2018]

Well I imagine 4.x systems just stopped being sold as rare commodities when Gateway released support for 5.x to 9.2.

Exactly. Prices dropped on those. Its a good thing I decided to buy new and waited for the release. It was worth it.

 

[MrJason005]

Maybe you could buy some cheap used 3DSes, downgrade them, and resell them for a fortune
