I recently tried installing Splatoon 3, the most recent update, and all the DLC yet it's not working and tells me that I need to download an update to use the train station. I have all the most recent updates for atmosphere & the switch so I am not sure why it won't work. I've tried installing it one part at a time and still doesn't work no matter which order I install the updates. If I install the update before the DLC and try to use the train it doesn't tell me I need to download an update, but instead tells me I need to go to the e-shop to buy the DLC, but as soon as I download the DLC it tells me I need to install an update to use the train, which I can't do as I'm not trying to get my switch banned. Has this been an issue for anyone else and has anyone figured out a workaround to get the DLC to work?

You need updated DLCs too.
What do you mean "updated DLCs"? I literally just obtained all 3 DLC, the newest update, and splatoon 3 files after the new DLC came out so they're the most updated DLC they can be... Still didn't work.

Edit: NVM I think I figured it out

Edit 2: Again NVM... They seem to still be the same files just compressed to the same file rather than being 3 separate compressed files. I did notice a lot of people had issues with accessing the content even when they paid for it. Still hoping someone figured out a way to get around it being buggy.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
