I answered it literally 18 posts before you commented

WOW... very long
hahaha

Game length is probably double with all the side quests. The game is ridiculously big and i'm still surprised they managed to port it to 3ds.

I'm going to buy the physical cart regardless because it's such an amazing game.

when some one told me they were waiting for this game i thaught it was beyblade or something intill i say pictures

The first thing that came to my mind when hear about this game was xenophobia.

I loaded it up on the Wii in December but that thing hasn't been on since we got the Wii U for Christmas. I just found out tonight this is just a WII port and not the new one.

So The Temp has overcome many challenges and the next one is to transfer the Wii and N3DS saves back and forth. [user]cearp[/user] can you whip us out a utility to take care of that for us?

Well the very first step would be decompressing the saves http://gbatemp.net/threads/xenoblade-chronicles-3d-save-compression.385737/

There's an update available, is it safe to press Y to update or do we have to wait for Gateway to get their arses in gear for the latest EmuNAND and do it through the shop..?

Gateway can't support emunand on the new 3ds, it's not laziness it's encryption.

You'll need to download the update as cia and install it.

Fyi: if GW ever "gets their arses in gear" and we have an up to date emunand. Do not update in game go to the eshop. While you are there search "updates" and download the updates for every game you think you may want to have. They are generally really small.

You can't go to the eShop without 9.6, and you can't update to 9.6 without breaking Gateway. Guess I'll have to have a look for this cia thing.

How do we download the update as cia? Usually when it ask for update, it will update the fw?

You will know you have found it when you see the same cast of characters in the forums there.

Never mind, i already found the update cia

 

[Ra1d]

whats the problem whys every one so happy about sky dosent it work on both carts?

I dunno, man, every time sky updates their templamte, they treat it as if they just cracked the newest encryption.

On the topic of saves, if the compression gets figured out, I wrote a program to parse the major info from the Wii save files and have made hundreds of save files from different points in the game. Assuming the 3DS format is the same, and it appears that it could be, you could just use these save files.

haha, i never played the wii game, even if it is possible, i won't be having a look! naturally, only makes things for my needs
but yeah let's hope the thread for it succeeds

 

[satel]

so what is the reason it won't work when converted to CIA ?

 

[TheMajestic]

How do you all install it? If I will transfer it to my gateway SD it says it is too big. What can I do here?
