Take it with a grain of salt, that's his PREDICTION. The GW team didn't tell him that, just his guts.

Edit: also, my prediction was about a week as well. Right around/after the US N3DS release.

But it sort of makes sense. If gateway don't release the hack on or before n3ds us and EU release, then 90% of casual people will buy sky 3ds and it's clones (it's much easier to use also). There's only 10% or advanced users so who'd care about future updates and cia support, otherwise 100 games for $80 (plus 9.5 support which gateway has already stated they won't support on launch) is still a good deal.

On release date cannot be expected, at that point they will hold off until they add support for US N3DS models and test. People should at least give them a few days after the N3DS release. I'm not even close to willing to get a Sky3DS. After the research that went into the diskwriter by me and some other members, its looking like they will have to release a whole new cart just to break the 31 game barrier. Sky3DS is too shady for me. Again that's just me though...

If the US N3DS consoles release with the same firmware as the review consoles, it shouldn't be an issue. Gateway almost certainly already has several review N3DS consoles from the US.
 
That's insinuating that 1. They have people working with them who would be allowed into Nintendo's review circle. Or 2. Someone who was given a review unit would give gw a system. Neither sound likely...
 
GW may very well have obtained a US N3DS, we may never know. Its all speculation, all I can say is that if they release the update on or before the US release and it supports the US models they most likely got there hands on one early.

There are probably a few hundred if not a thousand plus review systems out there. They could easily just buy one from somebody assuming they have no connections to anybody that received one.

Very true, there's a lot involved with that... But it's a possibility none the less.
 
Guys dont be silly...they got allready their eu and us consoles from production facilities in china. Thats their business. I used to have friend who were involved in flascard production for ds. so i know what im talking about ;) even iphones are leaked months before release...

Now that's an angle I can follow lol.
 
My Nintendo 4DS Double Whopper XXL from the Vietnam production facilities just arrived. Firmware 12.2. IS the Gatesky R6i Purple card working? And if not, what will Sony do about this?

Gatesky R6i got blocked in 12.1 :/ Sony really know what they're going. I've always wanted to try the 4DS Double Whopper XXL!

Wait, you still can't run more than 31 games on Sky3ds? Is that 31 games per mSD card?
 
Yeh same, I almost forgot about that restriction, Sky3ds aint awful or anything but 31 games per SD is nowhere near enough for me so
It seems to be a restriction they put in the card, they will most likely release a new cart with it made "unlimited". If I had a Sky I would probably use it, I just don't like the way they have been going about with the limitations which is why I have yet to buy one. Not like I have any use for it anyways. Gave my Aqua Blue 3DS to my close friend as a gift, then bought a XL for Christmas just to return it so I can get a N3DS. So I'm kinda empty handed with 3DSs. I'd imagine GW will release the update around the N3DS release anyways, so no point in getting a Sky.
