So is it possible to look up a ROMs region? Does the 3DS rom tool allow you to see it is European or American? Cause I downloaded a lot of both without knowing Region Free Roms didn't work.
Yes you can use 3DS rom tool to see the region of a game. I doesnt say Game Region or [E] but you can check it under min firm (or something like that) and it says the minimum firmware needed including the letter of the region of the game.

For example Mario 3D Land looks like this

"Min 3DS Firm: 2.2.0-XU"

That U at the end shows the Region.

I'm unable to edit the subject line to update the date. Cyan, can you, or another mod, update it so that it says: "Gateway 3DS Compatibility List [Updated Dec 16, 2013]" (without the quotes)? Much appreciated!

There are other user's report that EmuNAND 7 changes the game's language (french -> spanish), we don't know why. maybe the patches are affecting the language setting order, and it's picking the wrong one. Even if Japanese is not listed in the Luigi's main menu, the data is in the card. Developers probably didn't remove it when localizing the game.

Quick update on beta firmware

17/12/2013
Firstly a warm thank you for all the feedback and suggestions regarding our recent public release of GW 2.0b1.
GW 2.0b2 is a few days away from release and will be mainly emunand support for 7.0 and bug fixes together with an additional feature that will hopefully put an end to any accidental updates of consoles.

2.0b2 with emunand 7.0 supportted is a few days away. They didn't mention about support NAND save games and multiROM feature :mellow:

Is there a compatibility list for the GW Blue Card? I tried loading up some NDS games with it but most of them resulted in white screens.

Gambia, The
i have a question and hope to get the answer here. in the first post the op claims with 4.5 sysnand + gateway 2.0b1 it is possible to play all roms (not counting those with nand-save).
i will get my gateway on monday so i dont have an emunand so far.
all i want to play for now is monster hunter 4 on my european 3ds.
will i be able to play it???
(someone on the gbatemp-chat said i would not, but this thread gave me hope)

thank you very much

it will work with 2.0b1+, you don't need to use EmuNAND, or to even update it.

the ROM (without Online) will work on:
- 4.1.0 to 4.5.0 (without emuNAND)
- 4.1.0 to 4.5.0 + EmuNAND 4.1.0 to 7.1.0

the EUR cartridge (With Online) will work on:
- 4.1.0 to 4.5.0 + EmuNAND 5.1.0 to 7.1.0

Though, I think it's not released in Europe yet, so you will have to use ROM, which doesn't have online.
If you want online, you will need the European cartridge to work on your European console, Japanese cartridge + Japanese console, the japanese cartridge + a Launcher.dat with region free for cartridge (which is not possible yet), or wait for a Launcher.dat compatible with ROM+Online.

Thank for info and I just order mined 3DS XL 4.4 and Gateway. This 'Gateway 2.0b2' is great mystery... No one know what feature going to reveal... maybe it's Nand Saving, MultiRom, Quick shortcut to GW mode, 7.X.X updater on Emunand, Game Online function and 3D Video player.

I wouldn't expect more than 7.1 support but they could surprise us. Any other features will probably come at the "near Christmas" 2.0 release.

    I used to drink alcohol fairly often. Never to the point of it being a problem, but like 2-3 beers with dinner each night, or a few cocktails or glasses of Scotch or something. Started smoking/vaping weed a lot a few years back which killed 90% of my interest in booze. Now I stopped smoking/vaping weed as much and just deal with life the boring way most of the time

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    I only drank alcohol once and it was by accident
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    I didnt know it was beer, it was on a juice bottle
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yeah, I'm addicted to smoking, sadly. It's very addictive but I wish I didn't start.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    May just order a 5700g for a nas/emulation set up tbh
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast you were asleep on 4/20

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
