Which card for 3ds XL - help an idiot

Hi

Not been on this forum in ages but have treated myself to a 3ds xl for xmas. My old dsi xl has an acekard 2i so do have some experience of flashcarts.

Do all the new games work on the 3DS flashcarts, I have registered my 3ds on club nintendo and updated is this an issue for buying a flashcart?, as I remember with the old dsi you could not update them.

Thanks for help in advance as been out of a loop for a while.

 

When you say do 'new games' work on 3DS flashcarts, do you meand 3D games?

I'm absolutely no expert but I bought 2 x 3DS XLs for my boys for Christmas. Fortunately both had firmware of v4.2 & 4.4

I think the current 3DS carts will only play 3D games if your console has firmware of v4.5 or below.

I bought r4i 3DS gold deluxe editions and they work fine for us. The only other one recommended on this forum is the Gateway

Is that any help?

 

Yes I had to update it in order to download Mario 3D land which I got for free with the purchase. It says it is ver 7.1.0-14, however my daughter's 3ds xl is ver 5.1.0 as I havent updated hers yet.

Thanks for the replies.

Having had a quick google it seems like the R4i 3DS will support version 7.1.0-14, I hope this is the case?

 

Thanks prectorian, the dsi's have never been updated so will do that, thanks so much for your help.

http://www.dsgamer.com/r4i-gold-3ds-for-3ds-xl-ll-3ds-dsixl-ll-dsi-dsl-ds.html so is this the one to buy and is this website ok to buy from, or where is the best place to buy.

Also it is giving you to option to buy it with games on, is this a good idea?

Ok thanks projection, I'm gona have to get use to this stuff my self will come in handy for long run, sine got hold of a 2DS now, still plan for 3DS to.

 

Didn't want to make a new thread so here we go, same boat as OP. Purchased a 3dsxl mario and luigi silver edition and updated to purchase a few things on the eShop. Running 7.1.0-14u(was running 3.something). Anyway, looking on the supercard site, there is a firmware available that supports this? Does anyone know of any 3ds rom capability/general capability? Long time away from this scene so help would be much appreciated. Thanks

 

Alright cool. I bout ocarina of time 3d and Fireemblem awakening plus the ds came of Dream team, which are the games I most wanted. I will look into purchasing a super card
