Gateway 3DS emailed me this morning with this:

Currently it is not compatible with firmware v6.x but we are working on making
it compatible as quickly as possible.
Meanwhile, do NOT update your console until we say it is ok to do so.

So even as of today they are no closer to getting this to work with the current firmware..I will give them the benefit of the doubt til the end of the week, if its the same song and dance I will just go ahead and update and purchase the games that I want. I'd rather stay legit than worry all the time about updates

They've copy/pasted that same message to everyone that asked, so you're not the only one. :(

Oh I didn't know..so its probably one of those automatic emails..they probably didn't even read my message LOL..I guess I can try emailing them back and asking them if they are any closer to updating it but will probably get the same stupid message back

I don't think it's necessarily bot written, but I think they get this question more than enough times so they just copy paste it in.

If they had something they would have updated their site..this thing is beginning to look like a fail..but will see what happens


I'm getting concerned myself. Sadly, my own sponsors have no real news for me either, and even they don't know when they're getting stocks of the item. I'm going to wait this out, but I'm not going to get my hopes up.

The two games that I want are Donkey Kong and Animal Crossing New Leaf..right now there is no sale on them so I am willing to wait on the update from Gateway 3DS, but right now its not looking good and I would never purchase something without them releasing a fix for the update..I will be updating either way, either with them fixing it or my 3DS staying legit til they figure it out..the update is too good to not go ahead with it

Either way, I am kind of lucky as I have not updated my 3DS since Fire Emblem Awakening hit North American shores. There's quite a hoard of games I am interested in testing out, but until they get things sorted out, I'm not hopeful, considering their last major contact was June 4th. Best we can do is wait it out, and hope Devin gets a copy soon.

Maybe eventually they will figure out how to update their card..I don't mind updating and waiting for them to do so..I pretty much assumed that Nintendo would find a way to block the card, they hadn't updated their system in months then BOOM an update, and I don't believe in coincidences. and you're right, no update since June 4th, reminds me of the true blue dongle when that was popular, remember they promised some grand update to their dongle (This was before Rogero released his hack) then we never heard from true blue again, this might be the case here, or it might not..either way I haven't seen any new games posted anyway and I don't mind spending the money on good games just waiting for them to go on sale
