Homebrew What to buy

[Ryab]

Im looking to get another 3ds and im wondering what models are still shipping that are below 11.4?

A friend of mine bought one new 2ds last week and it was on 11.4 fw

11.5 is relatively new so most consoles on the store shelves should still have 11.4 or under. Really it shouldn't be an issue if it's over 11.4 since we have NTRBootHax and will more than likely have an exploit for 11.5 eventually.

Bottom line, it really shouldn't matter unless you can't get a compatible flashcard for 11.5 and under(R4i Gold RTS).

I just bought a new Galaxy 3DS XL and it came loaded with 11.3

I know. My point was any recent firmware is hackable now with NTRBootHax so it really shouldn't matter. A flashcard is only $20 and with NTRBootHax you can fix a brick so it's definitely a worthy investment. I'm glad you found a 11.3 Galaxy though.

Yeah but the difference is being able to use OCS, which is so easy a noob could do it. lol

It doesn't matter anymore, just buy any 3DS and buy an R4i Gold (URL on cartr4ids.cn)
You gain a lot out of this
1: You gain a method of exploiting your system that Nintendo can't block through OFW update. NTRBoot is a bootrom exploit, so it will require new hardware to fix
2: You gain a flashcart for DS games.
This is a 20$ investment to never worry again.

In my opinion, NTRBootHax is the easiest and fastest way to install CFW, it can't be patched and works on all firmwares with the bonus of fixing a brick and NDS games seeing as you'd have a flashcard. Not trying to take away from OCS or your decision, just saying.

Exactly.
