Pick two.

>>323598216
What games carry dlc

Can we still use our game carts even in cfw or are we only to play the games thatwe download?

I was wondering if it was possible to grab the dlc of a game and be able to use it on a real cartridge

>>323598584
Id like to know this too before i go for it.

Can we still play our regular games?

Has the update been rolled out yet?

>>323596119
Maybe if you didn't use cakesFW you wouldn't be having those problems.

All I have to do is power on my system and hold L for 2 seconds and I'm booted right into emuNAND, which I can update to keep playing all my legally bought games online and play pirated games online.

Is there a video tutorial i am literally too stupid to figure this out

I beat Pokemon Y in 2 days after I installed CFW, am I gonna get banned for Wondertrading online?

I hacked it to try Japanese games. It was more fun hacking it honestly.

That being said, there were some cool games not localized early on in the 3DS life that were neat and had a budget. Right now, i only want SMT 4, other than that I haven't used the console in a long while. Even MH4U only lasted 2 weeks.

Aw well.

how do i fix my 3DS?
it shuts off when i open the hinge over 90°

Monster Hunter, EO, Fire Emblem, Zelda, Kid Icarus, Smash, SMT, Mario, Animal Crossing and Pokemon if you like those, go wild.

of course you can do it, that's why /v/ has talked about it so much recently. Anyone can do it. You just have to downgrade to 9.2, which is doable from 10.3

>>323605232
>playing taiko with the touchscreen

You should specify that is for New 3DS only and it drains the battery like a madman.

Price isn't the problem. The problem is ease of downgrading and if the extra stick is worth it.

Just remember to use the no.mset-twl etc zip file to downgrade. That's the only one that works on n3ds.

>>323605542
All you'd really get from CFW is a couple convenience things like native gba playback (almost pointless now with how far retroarch has come) and NTR plugins, especially the language one (although Gateway can bullshit around that but so few people need it that most think it can't). The biggest plus would simply be not needing a card inserted to get to emunand.

can anyone tell me what ReiNAND 2.1 is? Do i need it for New3DS?

>>323606932
So if I get this, can I downgrade from a firmware version less than 10.3? Can I get 10.3 but not the new version?

>>323607084
yeah 10.3 has an exploit that lets you downgrade to 9.2 which is the one you can hack it off

99% guarantee that 10.4 solves that exploit so if it has 10.4 or if it's bought after 10.4 is released you're fucked because the browser hack won't let you (can't open browser without updating to latest version, browser is used to downgrade)

>>323596119
You only got yourself to blame for that.

Fucking retard. You could have used rxTools like everyone else.

I was too excited when I heard piracy was working for 3ds that I didn't consider the 3ds library at all. I don't even like nintendo games.

>>323607425
most likely

it'll come in an old fw but it won't matter because the browser hack won't work (unless it's 9.2 in which case that's the firmware you want)
i'd recommend just waiting it out until 10.4 comes out, maybe they'll find a reliable way to hack off it.

>>323607425
not that anon youre replying to but even if you get a 3ds that has an older firmware, youre still going to be fucked because you wont be able to do the browserhax no matter what.
unless for some magical reason 10.4 doesnt change anything.

I have to disagree (SM3DL, ALBW, a few remakes/re-releases, Dillon, Pushmo, Crashmo, the third one I forget the name, KIU, FE, Dark Moon, Dream Team, MK7) though Sticker Star was very much shit and FE Awakening was an obvious quality drop compared to GC/GBA FEs (at least it was a step up from the DS FEs and is decent by itself)

>>323607639
it does have some third party games (SMT4, DeSu 1 and 2 "enhanced ports", Layton series, Ace Attorney, AA x Layton, Bravely Default, VLR) but it won't keep you occupied unless you're into MonHun

rule of thumb is, you don't like Nintendo games, you stay away from Nintendo consoles

also, Animal Crossing is fucking garbage, and Pokémons single player is too easy for it to be entertaining unless you have no idea what the fuck you're doing (while the multiplayer is godly if you really get into it, or if you play against someone who is as lost as you are)

you actually would be able to do it provided it's not 10.x

Just follow this guide.

I don't understand one thing, I had the emunand updated to the latest 10.-whatever version but when I put in a physical card it said it need to update to 9.6 to work

why does a card need still say i needs the 9.6 firmware update to work if the 3ds emunand is running a later firmwire version?

>>323595593
>Has a 3DS
>Break it
>"It has no games"

Why do you even have one?

I cant use half of my games anymore carts and legit downloads on n3ds 9.5 emunand.

Just loading forever, applies to pretty much all newer game CIAs as well.

About ready to just do my o3DSXL and update the n3ds, doesn't seem worth it on those because your stuck on 9.5.

>>323609391
This. Anyone willing to go through the hassle of dealing with CFW on n3DS is either poor or underage. It just isn't worth it.

>>323610239
Engineers are idiots. Well known fact.

>>323609702
yes, that is the problem moron. you have to wait specifically for 9.5 spoofed games and most will not be spoofed only big releases like fire emblem and MHX.

not to mention when an update is released, that update breaks the spoof if you download it, for example shovel knight with amiibo support, still has no 9.5 spoof. if you bought the game its essentially useless if you are stuck in 9.5.

BUT, there's an update notice. What happens if I try to update?

They are actually lighted up so they compare to the original GBA.
Playing the games on the 3DS is the closest you'll get to experiencing GBA without using the console itself.
Though I don't blame you since going from emulators to VC is rough.

I think the ironic problem the 3DS has is that it has almost zero new IPs or franchises in comparison to the less popular Vita.

Almost all of the games worth playing on the 3DS are fairly safe continuations or remakes outside of uh...Theathrythm and Bravely Default.

Looks even worse than MHFU

>>323609860
You're wrong.
As i said, menuloader that comes with the starterkit that you need anyway to downgrade has it's own non-breaking option to install custom themes.

How do i make my 3ds automatically boot on CFW? I have to use browserhax everytime i turn it on to change to cfw. I'm using emunand

>>323611029
>>323611117

I'm on 10.3 emu. I have yet to link my NNID to my emuNAND, so don't think I wouldn't be able to update it.

But if I did link this to my NNID, won't Ninty realize I'm updating games I've never bought? And from there, can't they ban my name on all Nintendo systems?

>>323611035
>They're not.

I guess not, but there's definitely some fucking motion blur going on. I'll probably only limit myself to fucking FF6 because Megaman and Bass is hurting my eyes like hell. Man, even DS's GBA backwards shit was better than this shit.

I think I fucked up? I unlinked and then booted up rxtool but FBI and the other cia i installed are not there???

I can't get my emunand to update, there's always an error and it reboots.

Is there some other way I can update it without going through the system settings?

>>323611104
nevermind, i'm stupid. i put in the wrong SD card.

I can't imagine why would you play that when there's a DS version for the DS/3DS line.

Oddly enough, Cakes has been working with me without a single problem excluding one: for some reason, if I try to play MHX on my 3ds, it says that an error has occurred. I've tried installing it to my 3ds several times, and it just won't work.

What did I screw up?

I have a handful of files in ".3ds" format I used in GateWay.

Aren't these just renamed ".cia" files? Can I just rename and install them?

Why is sysupdater thing so poorly coded?
Fails to boot up half the time and even less than half actually do what is intended.

>>323605009
Zero escape games. Play 999 first (NDS) then Virtue's last reward. Ace attorney are good visual novels too.

>>323612124
no

.3ds files are for playing off the gateway cartridge

.cia files are installed to your 3ds like an eshop game would be

Alright, thanks, I'll go re-download.

I had thought though, for a few of the 3DS files I had, I literally just renamed it from .cia to .3ds and they worked. Maybe I'm crazy and misremembering.

im trying to format my 64gig microSD and nothing is working, ive gone through both quick and full formatting options in nintendo's reccomended formatter, sdformatterv4, anyone have any other program i could try?

I downgraded to 9.2 but now menuhax won't work. I tried reinstalling but the browser just loads up a blank page. Tried getting the SD out and what the pastebin said but I am still getting the blank page. The fuck is with menuhax?

Nah but really, it's fucking incredible, probably the best original game on 3DS

>>323612798
it's not size or price I care about, just the quality of the card/brand

>>323612823
Kid Icarus.
If you want something more mediocre, there is AeternoBlade, which do end up working somewhat nice due a time rewind mechanic to build up combos.

>>323613204
browserhax will always work as long as you don't update your firmware

Seconding Kid Icarus. It's difficulty system works like Smash Bros Classic mode. When you start trying the higher difficulties, it gets nuts real quick.

It did slightly hurt my hands when playing it normally an original 3DS, so the included stand was helpful. But now I have a 2DS, which is way comfier, so maybe I don't need it anymore.

>>323613345
Not true. It'll stop working once the new update is out if you didn't setup the tubehax dns. It also won't work if you never used the browser without tubehax on before.

No more text, no response to input, nothing. I have to hard reset. It's been like this no matter what SysUpdate I use. Whether it's from the gbatemp thread, from github, whatever.

That being said I've gotten some pretty tight shit like SMT IV, Bravery Defalturu, Yo-Kai Watch, Tales of the Abyss, and Titty Ninjas. I had some of these before but it's nice to have them all in one place now.

Welcome to pc gaming.

>>323613414
Again, did you format your SD card? If you did, and didn't back it up, you're going to need to install the homebrew starter kit again.

>>323613938
It's because you are fucking stupid and can't follow simple instructions. CFW isn't for you, sorry, go back to 10.3.

>>323614125

Poorly coded doesn't seem to be the entire issue here. I'm on O3DS, and from what I've seen over these threads is that most people can get sysupdate to run in ten tries or less. I've been trying to get it to work on and off for days, and I've had the same result every time. But I can't figure out what's wrong. I've followed the pastebin guide to the letter, double checked it to the gbatemp guide, everything should be in order. It doesn't even give me a message about failing to extract the CIA files. It just doesn't do anything. It boots up, that's about it.

For anyone having SysUpdate issues use this version:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/simple-guide-to-downgrading-your-3ds.407888/page-95#post-5923820

When you're in your Homebrew Launcher load up FTBrony and spam the B button until it closes. Then go to SysUpdate and attempt the downgrade.

Go into Menuhax. Then configure. Then Type 1. Hold the button you want to use then touch the touch screen.

Did the hack on the 4 gb SD card I had and the 64 gb one I ordered just came in. Would following this pic be all I have to do or is there some type of formatting that has to be done first?

>>323617290

Use 'guiformat' to format the 64GB to Fat32.

Google it, it's freeware.

Can't i just use the wireless transfer thing to hack my n3ds?

>>323617104
Doesn't even boot half the time.

Poorly coded.

This one doesn't repeatedly fail to boot like the others, which is good, but I still get the fail to find cia files.

>>323617526

Yes but transfer speeds are a fucking pain. Best to just leave the back cover off and swap the card back and forth.

Whats the point of updating to RX-E 10.3?
to play online and..?

I have no idea what tubehax is. I launched HBL via browserhax and nothing else.

I can't access my browser guys. It's happening.

I downgraded and now I can't boot into the homebrew launcher through the camera or holding L. What do I do now? I thought I'd be able to continue with the emunand and such?

>>323612861
installed with FBI, run it after I launch CFW after that it works until I stop using cfw
i've only ran usa/jpn versions but I don't have to do anything to switch

>>323612809
I couldnt get the fbi installer to work properly on it, after trying to figure out what I did wrong for a few hours I decided to try a diff option and I had cakes running games in under an hour

and the cakes guide was a lot easier to follow

Ok so i did everything but my nnid is not there anymore...what do i do?

>>323617865
do browser thing again and you will see a small slider zoom in and press the end of the right side and install menuhax agin

WE FUCKING DONE BOYS 3 HOURS WAKE ME UP FUCK YOU BROWSERSHIT.

I have been through enough shit today, where do i get the CIA files.

>>323617821
>directs to a Nintendo support page
top kek

it was fun while it lasted, I got everything I wanted

>>323617865
Have to reinstall it. The Guide For Retards mentions that downgrading will remove menuhax, so follow the directions after that to the letter so you can install CrtBoot properly. It's simple enough but annoying as all hell to redo.

i installed rxtools and i'm going to back it up on my computer
it says i can't find emunand
before i proceed is there anyting i have to do?

>>323618082
It gives me an error when I try that. Should I wipe my SD card and try again?

guys guys guys,

I just got 3dsxl hacked and everything, but how do I play ds games on it now since my r4i doesn't work past I think version 9?

>>323617865
browserhax got patched, you're late son, late and fucked

>>323618053
Who fucking cares

>>323618132
3dsiso

>>323618193
browserhax just got patched which means your fucked but keep trying

I just updated to 10.4 and my system won't show anything other than a black screen now. I thought this was safe?

>>323618234
can't you still go into browsehax in 9.2?

>>323618234
Good thing I installed ironhax and menuhax before browser got updated.

>sysupdater refuses to work because it's a badly coded POS
>now browsherhax is patched so even if it does downgrade, I can't do anything else

So I just finished step e of the retard guide
http://pastebin.com/EBKipkPW

What can/can't I do now that the patch happened?

>>323618450
Are you fucking retarded

https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-installing-rxtools-custom-firmware-3ds-and-2ds.390867/
so i was following this guide and it's a tad bit confusing
after running rxtools for the first time do i go to the creating emunand section?

>on 10.2
>want to downgrade and install custom firmware
>L button doesn't work


Fuck me.

I just got off work and got my SD card in the mail. The browserhax thing isn't working, help?

>>323618620
No, fuck all of you guys. I was told multiple times updating in emuNAND would be safe. Is everything here just a big joke to you guys? You know this shit costs money right? Fuck.

>>323618726
Pics or fuck off.

>>323618707
What about you Menuhax L button thing?
Or Ironhax?

3dsiso is so bad I wish i could use torrent

>>323617816
>I have no idea what tubehax is

If only there was an easy way to search the Internet!

I'm a ~PC gamer~ ever since I was a kid, literally never had a console nor do I have any interest in them...

...but this is true as fuck. I love optimizing my games, getting them to run at optimal settings, installing mods and shit
