InB4 gateway updates site
with new update to fix emunand and still no mention Of N3DS update

 

[Thomas12345]

Ouch, he's only joking

But yeh, February is the month of info if anything by the end of the month either of these viewpoints will be somewhat valid:

"Fuck Gateway, its now coming to March and no exploit OR NEWS!!! Fuck them"

"Gateway released some news on the N3DS, I guess it's still worth the wait"

"Gateway released the exploit, THANK FUCKING GOD, the stupid pointless fights with Sky3ds users were worth it *GW users dance*"

Actually I'm worried that february might be a period of in-activity for GW, because I heard rumors that GW team is chinese (or have chinese members), and chinese new year is in februrary and very important in asia

GW will come through with their update at some point. If that's not good enough for you, go buy a Sky3DS. Nobody cares which you choose.

How long are you willing to wait for Gateway before you guys get mad? I thought my friend was the only one THIS patient. Check this out.

I asked him hypothetically if he was stranded in MIAMI and asked me to pick him up from Orlando, how late would I have to be to get him angry. I said 1 hour....2 hours...4. hours... He said he would be cool... I said 8 hours late.. he said still cool.... It wasnt until said 18 hours late that he would be pissed off. Amazing.

What is your threshold of patience? 1 month more? 2 months?4 months? 2016?

Tony said they werent? Proof... I always thought they were either Chinese or American GBA tempers

 

[guitarheroknight]

I'm good to go. Bought myself a $50 3DS and enjoying GW. Gonna buy myself a N3DS next Friday and when the update hits I'll just transfer my saves and gift/sell the classic 3DS. Profit

Here are the typical arguments used against ppl complaining about waiting:

* You don't know anything about hacking/software development, so don't complain that it takes a long time.
* Would you like a bricked console? If no, then be patient and wait!
* New3DS isn't even out yet, it's your own fault for buying it and expecting a quick release from GW
* Instead of complaining about the wait, do something else to pass the time

PS personally, i don't really agree with these arguments

I simply find it funny when people complain about things like waiting, especially when there are available alternatives. This is far from the first time Gateway has gone dark in terms of communication while working. Do you need hourly personalized e-mails from the Gateway team to verify that for yourself? Do you not have any concept of object permanence yet?

If the wait is truly that excruciating, buy a Sky3DS. Same advice I'd give to anybody.

GW will come through with their update at some point. If that's not good enough for you, go buy a Sky3DS. Nobody cares which you choose.

The point is precisely that there is no choice. Gateway doesn't support n3ds, period. I think this simple fact is enough to make it "not good enough" for a lot of people.

it's unbelievable how you're getting all worked up & making a big deal over the small comment i made here :

i think it's going to be more like this: *48 hours later - many n3ds owners buy SKY3DS*

some people seriously need to get a LIFE !!!

 

[weatMod]

I wonder if MM will support the n3ds camera control on the old 3ds with a CPP
And what the added extra N3DS features will be besides the camera control
I didn't really have time to play much of the demo
If the update is not out by the 13th i will be tempted to start it on an old 3DS but I would much rather wait to start it on my new 3DS XL

There's a choice in how you handle any situation. In this particular case N3DS owners have at least three: buy a Sky3DS, buy a Gateway (preemptively), or buy neither and just wait to see how things pan out. All perfectly valid choices.

You should be able to transfer the save over to the n3ds, either by copy&pasting GW's .sav file directly, or maybe using savedatafiler

I'm actually in the same situation as u... I have a 4.5 3ds, with GW working fine on it, but I don't play it much because I want to save all my games for my N3ds. There's only one "first time" for playing games

You'll notice only one of those let you play at release.

True, but unless you've bought only an N3DS, it doesn't matter. Most people waiting seem to also have a 3DS/XL. If you have no console right now, you might as well save yourself some money by picking up a 3DS/XL. Any firmware it comes with will be compatible with GW or Sky3DS. There aren't even any N3DS exclusives out yet.

Honestly, I'm betting that Gateway already has a trick up their sleeve for the N3DS. People act like they're just going to magically pull some tricks from their hat the day it is released, when really, it has already been released in other countries, and they could have well been developing already. Look at Smea's blog; he's already been doing that. I feel as if they will wait a week or two after the US+EUR release so that people can get their device first.

Why wait for US support? It makes no DAMN sense.
