Zombie thread, RAAAGH

[Random Joe]

careful folks, some of the new 3ds XLs come with 9.4. I picked mine up at best buy Canada and its on 9.4 (I resealed it and I'm gonna return it and get another colour (the whole "its a gift and he really wants black" thing))

that sucks!

 

[marksteele]

that sucks!

Ya I was seriously pissed. I figure my best bet is to try another store and see what happens

NEWS UPDATE:

Time is ticking down every second, so since its a new day, time for another picture, and new song to sing:

​

​

Now get out your recorders from school that you hate so much and learn how to play the song of 'double time' in real-life as you wait for clock to tick down some more, and just maybe the next 48 hours will not be so boring.

Why is midna even in this video lmao

Welcome to the GaryOprah Show!!!!

On Today's Episode, we try to stall the flood of Sky3ds sales with a fake 48 hour countdown to n3ds support.

Lets meet our first guest thorasgar, who claims SONYUSA has been induced right now and we are just waiting for 10 cm dialation.

....

in all seriousness i hope its true, the 48 hour countdown.

This waiting/gambling game is annoying. I hate gambling anyway and this is the biggest gamble of all. Especially if some of them come with firmware 9.4 or higher. Bullshit. And I am considering selling my Wii U.

 

[2skies]

My black N3DSXL (US) is on 9.0.0.

Also, if I want to unlink my NNID so I can put it on the new system, I just have to format my emunand, right? I'm not even going to try a system transfer or anything like that until Gateway's a go just in case it has me update the system.

I think you should just get the sky3ds and save us the drama.

You'll need the triforce to unlink.

I think your right my friend. I think your right, but all I'm worth right now is 800 dollars. So....

Just in case? System transfers require an up-to-date system, either in SysNAND or EmuNAND and since Gateway said they can't support 9.5 EmuNAND on the N3DS you won't be able to do a system transfer at all and keep Gateway functions until they fix that, which won't happen at exploit release according to them.

You're worth 800 dollars? hard to believe, but save the drama and get the sky3ds.

The logic on display here is pretty much absent. "Biggest gamble of all.." A bigger gamble than Russian roulette? This Gateway stuff is more serious than I thought. And furthermore, Nintendo is selling their consoles with updated firmware to presumably give their customer a more up-to-date OS immediately at the point of sale? Oh and as a result making it difficult to mod their software (or worse, pirate their games) and you're going to sell your Wii U? That'll show them.

Awww, weak sauce, didn't know system transfers require updates. Well, I guess I don't need a NNID to play games offline then ;p As long as I can install and play all my .cias when Gateway drops, I'll be happy waiting for 9.5 emunand support to go online.

edit: without a "system transfer," can't I just enter my NNID that I unlinked from the old system?

Relatively speaking, and not in absolutes like your thinking of...

 

[Kohmei]

Even in relative terms, if the fabled 9.4 N3DSXL exists, you just return it to the retailer.

You pick up fast!

Hope that isn't the case for machines preordered online and shipped.
