[QUOTE="sharf, post: 7620029, member: 434012"] I think I'm understanding the difference between everything now. [B]I don't know what you mean by access to the store but you'll always be able to update your firmware. If Nintendo pulls some sort of trick that stops the current version of Luma working properly you may need to update Luma, but that's all: [/B]I mean, will I be able to open up the eshop and buy a new game just like I do now? Because as it stands, I can't access the store without updating the 3ds to the latest version (which I had to do when I bought the thing). So my concern is that putting cfw on it will mess up my ability to purchase and download 3ds games via the eshop. I'm not after free games, I just want to be able to play the games that I do own, but can't otherwise play on my 3ds (GBA and SNES games that aren't in the eshop). [B]what do you mean "changing the firmware"???: [/B]Unless I'm misunderstanding how this works, I mean putting Luma on. Does Luma overwrite the software version of the 3ds, or does it run along side it? i.e. will I still be running 11.6.0-39U and then when Nintendo releases an update, I just download that normally with Luma running along side of it? [B]Drains your battery when inserted even if not being used: [/B]I mean I can always just take it out when I'm not using it...If the only downsides are battery drain and $40, I'm still not convinced I should spend my time with cfw.
