Sky3ds is like Germany..Just think about their WC results since say..66. Finalist, semi, winner, semi, finalist, finalist, winner, qfinal, qfinal. Final, semi, semi, winner.

Germany wins.... Sky3ds works...and therefore wins..

Gateway is England... I hope England does well..... but they dont deliver...


I cant think of an EPL comparision

As a fellow german guy, I would say ur comparison is clueless, since Germany never limited the gameplay to a certain standard. Sky3DS had a limiting time due to the 10 Games Limit.

 

[Xenophy]

whats the point though? If they're coming with 9.2 or less they'll be compatible with the gateway update no matter if they release it before or after the na release. Well I guess I'm just assuming but of course I could be way off

What IF (Assumption!) they got a solution for 9.5 also. So they would hold it back till EU and NA is released and certain to work. That would mean a broader market for the 3DS.
IF they would release it now while having sth for 9.5 (Seems to be an update after the release), then Big N could still fix it for when releasing the 9.5 version.

Only my wife is German... from Frankfurt.... but i can be a German by association

Im just saying... its amazing what Germany has done and really you only notice it when you take a closer look....

if the qq3ds team were smart they would sell it a retail price of 30 euros .
I'm sure that if they have the balls to do that a lot of people would be like this

with gateway is shut up and take my m........ not know man, will take it soon.........

you cant even use Homers "you just lost yourself a customer" because they arent raking in cash like Moe

The Sky3DS is a flawed and severely gimped product. Sky3DS can only play 1:1 unmodified copies of retail games. They can't be modified and Sky3DS can't run any homebrew outside of using a Cubic Ninja rom if you are on 9.2 or below firmware.

You have to use a third party exploit to make it load other region games as well. It doesn't even support firmware updates to the card itself. Expect to drop another $90+ on a "new revision" once Nintendo releases an update that blocks it and I promise you that will happen sooner then later.

Do not ever try and compare it to the Gateway 3DS. It's like trying to play table tennis at a wrestling game. Just stop. You are embarrassing yourself. Sky3DS might have it's uses for those just wanting to play backups or just straight up piracy without the homebrew. But Gateway and it's clones (and thus far gateway is the only thing that runs on firmware beyond 4.5 via the new Ultra 3.0/3.0.1 update) can do everything else like installing CIAs and homebrew plus future proof with emunand support.

You can't do any of that ***t with a Sky3DS and you are SOL if Nintendo blocks it in a future firmware update.

ok, i wanted to make a war joke here but I think it could be offending
anyway if we are going to take this road, we should ask paul the octopus when the update is going to be released

ill go back to Dragon Ball Heroes 2 JPN on my US 3ds with a "gimped product.."

Stop being an idiot. That game runs fine on Gateway and it's clones as well. Why the ***k would any one use a Sky3DS if Gateway/Clone can run it just fine and better yet just install it as a CIA file into emunand on future firmware updates that block the Sky3DS. You're obviously a Sky3DS fanboy who's probably stuck 9.3/9.4 because they couldn't wait long enough for Gateway to release their new update.

There's no point arguing with you. I may own a Gateway myself, but a Gateway isn't the only way to play this game. You can just as easily use an equivalent clone as one does not need to own a gateway to use Gateway Ultra 3.0's new downgrade feature.

Not to mention a Gateway or a clone typically runs $30+ cheaper then a Sky3DS. Once your precious Sky3DS gets blocked, your better off selling your 3DS and getting one that will run a Gateway or equivalent clone like the MT-Card. Gateway might not run on N3DS right now, but it will in the near future. When the next Nintendo FW update blocks your Sky3DS, you will really wish you had been more patient and waited.

I have an 8.1 here at home. I could get a Gateway if i wanted.. I dont hate Gateway. I would get one but I dont want o hassle with Emunand, sysnand. backing up.. cia.. etc.. Its nothing personal. Dont get so uptight.

I have a sky3ds because i like to easily switch between 3ds games and ds games... when I first joined here... I was told you have to have a 4.x system to do the exploit.and if you loaded a ds game you had to do the whole thing over again... maybe ignorance on my part?

My position is...I love Sky3ds.. I dont hate Gateway... I like to joke with you fine people while we wait to see what happens with the n3ds..

Lets wait

I don't mind that you want to use a Sky3DS. If it works for you great. Just stop acting like it's somehow superior to the other flashcarts on the market.

Thats just my opinion.. You think Gateway is the best.. Good on me.. .Good on you... Back to watching the Seahawks meltdown.

Indeed. I wouldn't mind seeing the Packers in a Superbowl. It's been long enough, they deserve another chance.

I have an 8.1 here at home. I could get a Gateway if i wanted.. I dont hate Gateway. I would get one but I dont want o hassle with Emunand, sysnand. backing up.. cia.. etc.. Its nothing personal.

See, I also thought it's going to be complicated... and I actually like complicated, that's why I bought Gateway, but this sysnand/emunand you're talking about turned out to be so simple that I was kind of disappointed a little.
First of all backing up sysnand is optional, and believe me if Sky3DS could implement such a feature they would, because why not ?All it does is back-up your system just in case, it's like having system restore on your windows in case you need a rollback.
Second, CIA is also not necessary, you can use the same drag and drop method with regular 3ds/3dz files, CIA is just an option you have, because it's just like installing an e-shop game, same as above Sky3DS team only wishes it could have this feature.
Emunand : Optional unless you're on 4.x version, pretty simple concept, you're creating a virtual system layer that acts like a real one that you can update to the latest version(9.4), with this you can go to e-shop and not worry about updating your main system.

Until now I only listed Optional features, now the necessary ones :

If you're on 4.x system :

Installing a one time only exploit using a R4 card, which takes around 10 seconds
Install Emunand, around 1-5 minutes.
Enjoy, you no longer need to take out your red gateway card out of the card slot(unless you want to add more games to the microsd)

If you're on 9.2 system :

Install an exploit using the browser (has to be redone every-time you turn off your 3ds or open your system settings).
Enjoy.

Also, people seem to be confusing "more features" with more complicated, hey if you don't want to cheat in your games, install cias, DevMenu, etc etc, you don't need to, just drag the .3ds files onto your micro sd and play them, no additional steps are required for region free, so you can drag any rom from any region.

Note that I'm not against Sky3DS, if you're on 9.4, I don't even think that you have any other option other than Sky3DS, but even if I was on the latest firmware I doubt I would be using Sky3DS, simply because I can't be confident in the longevity of the card, I don't want to buy a card every month, on the other hand Gateway has been around almost 2 years and have gone from very basic rom support to what they're right now supporting 9.2 version using the same 2 years old card.

And if CIA/DevMenu/Hombrew/Cheats/Emunand does not buy you over and even looks complicated to you, you don't have to use them, but maybe : quality/longevity, convenient rom menu, region free will.

 

[Ralph1611]

Only thing I would like is CIA.. to install the games on the tiles of my 3ds... that I like...

But I dont know how to do that.. at 8.1.. if I could have option to freely... say.. have CIA installed on the system... and only use CIA...and keep using my DSTWO... that would be one thing...but I need to boot into Emunand(i think).. can Emunand run a DSTWO?

I know i probably wont "need to" if there is homebrew and stuff like that...but thats all thats throwing me off.. I would love my 3ds to be littered with tiles of 3ds roms.
