I have n3ds xl with 9.9 and a sky3ds card. Since there is no way to install cfw to 9.9 should I update my firmware? Or should I wait on 9.9?

definitely stay. 10.2 and 10.3 have patched several of the exploit entry points.

For instance one of the best entry points is menuhax/themehax for homebrew, if you update you will lose that.

My N3DS is on 10.1 and I am staying there so I can keep the menuhax.

I would update. If/when a new kernel exploit appears. It will most likely support the latest firmware. I would update everything between 9.3-10.2.

Good luck! :)

the answer is almost always wait. generally speaking the older the firmware the better the odds. so if you can wait, wait.

I wouldn't. Menuhax is great and if a kernel exploit arises, I'd bet it will be compatible with 9.9.
Unless you want eShop, that is.

Thanks for answer people. I mean we can install cfw up to 9.2, somehow if they hack newer versions which firmwares will be luckier? 10.x's or 9.x's?
