Well firstly you sold your GW card even though you could have used it with your O3DS with no problems. The more interesting part is that you sold it to buy a Sky3DS so you can play the same games you can on your O3DS.
Im placing a safe bet saying that when GWs update gets released youll buy it again, so by doing that you not only lost money but you also loose your saves (your time that went into them) and for what? The fact that you couldnt wait for their release while using GW on the said O3DS? That doesnt make any sense, both of them do the same exact thing ATM. Not trying to bash your decision but you havent thought it through.

Ash, I see where you are coming from now.

But I never got the pointless Circle Pad Pro nonsense, and now it's built into my new handheld.
The N3DS is also future proof.

If I ever need to buy a GW again, which I don't see happening, I will sell off my Sky on CL and still be a few physical games ahead.

As for my saves, the only ones I am really going to miss is Pokemon and Animal Crossing.

It falls down to this again:

• Sky3DS works on New 3DS
• Gateway 3DS does not work on New 3DS

Not the best, but hey it works

Exactly!

Why can't you understand people want to use the new 3ds.

We have all been using gateway on our older systems for months if not years now.

I thing Sony's avatar is much more naughty. That one just looks stupid to me. (No personal offense meant)

I get that people want to use their N3DS console but why would you want to spend money on something that doesnt bring anything to the table? You loose your saves, you loose your time and you loose your money. If he didnt have an O3DS then I would have understood but in his case he isnt gaining one single thing by buying a Sky card when he could have used GW and enjoyed all the premium features it has to offer.

Why is he losing his time and money?
He clearly wants to play games on his/her New 3DS, and is willing to spend some money on a product that has such capabilities. He wants to play on the New 3DS, not the old 3DS.
People want GAMES, and are willing to let go of features they may not be interested in in the slightest.

He said he just lose 2 saves. And if he doesn't care about the extra features? Like eShop games, DLC? If he prefer to play his games with his new hardware? C-stick, ZR/ZL button, better graphics for some games (like MH4U)?

Everybody don't think the same way or expect the same things. ^^

If Sky wasn't so expensive, I'd have both right now. But as it is, GW is the better cart for what I want it for, with or without the wait.
Everyone has diff reasons for their choice of cart I guess

IMHO it's ugly and stupid. But I also don't really see Sony's avy that 'naughty'. idk, that's my opinion.

Sky works on new 3ds

Gateway is a light paperweight to the new 3ds

He's the one that will be enjoying his new hardware for months while you continue to wait for nothing.

I've just given up on the New 3DS entirely. Yesterday I bought a 6.1 Blue XL on eBay ($115 shipped) for the fiancee and we're going to use our spare Gateway (originally purchased during hype countdown) on that one. I don't think that the new ones are really all that, having played Majoras, MH4, and several other recent games on the older consoles just fine. GW will continue to support firmware updates on the older ones, whereas they likely won't be able to "for a while" on the new consoles.

Being able to have the downgrade/offline exploit, play local multiplayer/online right now, and run .cias is so worth not having a c-stick and better 3D with no GW support. I'll stick with what works.

I get that people want Gateway to be released but why would you, and everyone, want to spend their time on this thread that doesn't bring any good or joy to life? You lose your data, you lose your time and you lose your temper. If you didn't have a job then I would have understood but in this case you aren't gaining one single thing by reading and replying when you could have gone outside and enjoy your time with your family and friends life has to offer.

Allright, I get that Sky3DS works, but saying that Gateway will never release the update is wrong.
Can you prove it? Are you saying the video they posted is fake?

 

[Random Joe]

I'm giving gateway till March 4th and then I'm buying a skycard

That will give me more then enough use out of it by the time gateway gets released in August

Actually he wouldnt be loosing any money due to the games he got.

Well if he wants games he go them but he will be loosing his saves if he decides to go back with GW which is a big no no in my book.

Huh Im not waiting . I can play all the games the N3DS can, get to keep my saves AND enjoy all the premium dilly dallies GW offers. And when the time comes Ill just transfer my saves to the N3DS and sell my 3DS for the price of a Sky card. Whaaaat??? I get to keep all my saves and save up $90??? As I said, patience is a virtue.



Not so much of a paper weight huh?

It's obviously not a fake, but it's taking a long long time, I got my New3DS a few days ago so I can wait, but I can understand that people waiting since November are tired of waiting and buy a sky... :/

Also, as much as he doesn't have proof it will take months, or that it will never release, but we also don't have any proof that it will come out soon, or even come out at all. What if they don't find an exploit easy to use for customers on the N3DS? What if they need to remove a lot of features to make it works? What if it just doesn't work? Everything is possible since there is absolutly no news from them.

And about their video, yes it worked, but they didn't release it, so it means the version of the exploit they used on this video is not usable for us, and they'll not release this one, and we don't know if they found another exploit, maybe they didn't, at all. :/

So you think if it's not released by March then it won't be here by August
