Why would they tell us they gave up in the first place? also why would they keep the GW servers up after giving up.

It doesn't even make sense as a joke lol

you overthink it...

I know

looks like the blue cart just by looking at where the mSD slot is... weird.

Yea I moreso was amused that they advertised it as a gatewait.

They also have the sky3ds internals for sale for $70ish. (no game limit version.)
DOn't know why they are selling internals without the plastic though. the feedback suggests they are genuine parts. *shrugs*

I'm telling you GW will update the news section on the 5th of March (6th at latest)saying n3ds support is being finalized
And will release SOON ,then release on 420 __o0

LOL I didn't even notice that they wrote it as such.

Maybe it is just cheaper to send it unassembled? maybe it fell off a truck? idk, but now I'm wondering if it would work to make my own sky cart by messing with my older r4 cart

I'd have to agree.
We already know not to update past 9.2 and we already know that emunand will not be supported past 9.4 upon release.
what did yesterdays official update do to change those two facts?

i asked if i could make a sky3ds in a thread, garyopa replied with pictures of big curcuits and stuff and said it would be cheaper to buy a sky

Yea, I understand that, but I was wondering if I just got the innards for cheaper, and made a makeshift cart from my r4. It could result in being cheaper, who knows. since there is no soldering, or other, harder to do things

 

[Suthek]

Why even do that? If you have an old $5 3DS game you could use that instead.

Drill a hole for the blue button. Carefully pop it open, put the sky3ds inside (with sd) and then close it up.
I guess you might want access to the SD card... But technically you could make it look like an OEM game. (with a blue button.)

Well they did at least one other time in the past didn't they? With multirom support?

i bet you could, you would just need to drill holes on the top to make it fit, but with the holes on it already, its probably easier to just drill of the top, because otherwise there would only be a small peice of plastic left anyway.

yesterdays official update?

They just update the web browser making imposible to continue using regionthree and vc inyection
This make sky3ds región-locked again

 

[CIAwesome526]

but that was an update to a file, not just a general progress update

That makes me think...
Did the browser update remove the option to make PK Hex injects by using the pcdata.bin and such?

Yea you'd save like $20.
The other option is if you have a red button sky3ds this would be a $73 tweak to make it blue button.

I'd sooner just buy a $70 red button though? Bypassing the 10 game limit isn't that bad? Isn't it?

Yes, no more pokehacks and stuff

yea, the red sky cart is cheaper, just harder to find. It is exactly what I would buy tbh. Only reason I'd buy the insides of the Sky3DS would be to

1. Make my own cart (see: QQ3DS)
2. Mess around for fun
