Zombie thread, RAAAGH

What I found odd is that I tried playing Yokai Watch, it prompted me to update it? I'm in EU and the game is JPN (.3DS), so I click Y to update, says it has applied the patch, but still, the message is there for me to update it.

When I play Dairantou smash bros and it prompts me to update, it just says that it can't find the update in the eshop. Odd that yours says the patch has successfully been applied.

I thought updates could work with every region .CIA?

No. That's why in almost all cases, if you're playing a rom or CIA from a different region, you need to find the correct update and install it in CIA format.

So let me get this straight... They are going to make another announcement??? I thought their next step was to release support... Just great!!!

Better than hearing nothing from them

At this point, if Gateway farted people would be dancing in the streets.

It's like someone who is playing hard-to-get. The more distant he acts, the bigger our boner is when we do hear something.

SonyUSA should be publicly stoned for not sharing the private beta. After all, it says it didn't get it from GW, so it has someone else who leaked it. Just leak it again, duh? Everyone knows how desperate people are, and if GW takes notice of theleak they will have to do something. Its time THEY dance to the tune of the customers, like it should be.

Here is the odd thing, some games actually have region detection built in, despite it being a region locked console! Bravely Default: For the Sequel (JP only) for instance detects your US console (tested it installed as .cia) and sets the menu and voice to English by default! It also shows on the Home Screen you can update it, the update downloads however errors out when it tries to install :/ (something about download failed)

All .cia's installed with Gateway are 'region free' without having to patch them to be region free. I think people hunt down "region-free" .cia's because of ignorance OR they are still using the 4.5 CFW and require it for that.

It was a couple pages back. I read every post in this thread.

Wow, much to my surprise, a full page of SOMETHING TO DO WITH GATEWAY. Way to go, GBATemp!

It seems so. Funny thing is that usually I install the CIAs converted with RF (since I didn't know better till now) but they work.
However with some games, most recently MM for example, if I patch the US version with RF and try to play it in my EUR 3DS, it will freeze while it runs if it doesn't have the RF patch. lol

You guys keep asking that, but you also keep forgetting the initial exploit DIDN'T HAVE EMUNAND, plus unlinked sysnand and emunand has some issues with eshop and other things as well.

Not really have any problems with eshop and unliked emunand. My brother managed to redownload all his stuff on emunand, just have to do it right to not lose anything.

Smea said it doesn't work with the region-free exploit because it search for the right language files an don't find it, so it's probably the same with the .cia version?

Hey SonyUSA, I have been following a few of your posts, I remember the guide and all.

Was this build scrapped due to the issues you mentioned with non linked Emunand / Sysnand and the other problems that can occur because of that?
Or do you think this is still going to be how the exploit is done (from your previous guide?)

Thanks

I remember back when the beta came out you said there was a 48 window for it to be used.

People you need to back off and just let it go.

Focus your attention on the game of chicken going on between SC and GW I think is going on.

Haha funny you say that as I was thinking the same thing.

To answer a question a few pages back, you can play DS games on the N3DS units by using an R4i Gold card. I'm using one now and it even works for online play. The Gateway Blue card doesn't work on the new console (because it's only for fw4.x) even with the R4i Gold software on it.

That's not the issue tho. What I mean is why would a US rom without RF patch work in a EUR 3DS and a US rom with RF patch wouldn't?
I get now why the rom without RF patch works since I just learned GW also patches that. But what about the US rom with RF patch? Unless the patch conflicts with GW patch, it should also work, no?

 

[weatMod]

Who cares about the beta , it didn't support emunand anyways
I wish GW would release a beta or even an alpha or anything just for the express purpose of letting us create update and back up an emunand with 9.5 even if it doesn't work yet we can still get 9.5 NAND dump and save it for when it does work before N releases another update
