ninty's profits goes skyhigh, they wait a month and then they block gateway for once and for all
You mean a known exploit will be patched?!?!
It's not necessarily as though Nintendo is somehow getting the best of those of us who have bought a 3DS [XL] in recent months just for the Gateway. I'm satisfied enough with the current library not to be too upset by the fact that new games probably won't be playable (indefinitely) after Nintendo inevitably defeats firmware spoofing with on-cart DRM. Perhaps a new exploit will eventually be discovered, but even if that never happens, the increase in purchased consoles is beneficial to people like me and to Nintendo. Worst case scenario: I have a 3DS with a couple years of releases at my fingertips and all original DS titles accessible in case my DSL or DSi break and I don't feel like playing on an emulator.
Consider the PS3: Once Sony fixed their "problem" with the release of 3.56, a lot of people gave up and updated their consoles to OFW before TrueBlue came along. Many were content to stay on 3.55 CFW because there was a big enough library of games at that point to keep most people satisfied even if newer games remained out of reach indefinitely. I wouldn't have regretted buying a PS3 just for the initial jailbreak if somehow the TB dongle, 4.21 CFW and beyond didn't eventually show up.
I'm happy I bought my XL just for the Gateway even if no game released after October of this year is ever playable without an original cart.

What 3DS XL color are the most likely to be less than 4.5 in europe?
I may buy a 3DS XL in some weeks (when I have the money) unless gateway find an update for 6.2.0-12E before.
Sadly I have the original 3DS and I updated it yesterday, from 4.4.0-10E to 6.2.0-12E.........

Guaranteed.
Your chances of getting 4.5 or below in a 2013 box are not awful, but it's a gamble. Make sure you can return it if you need to.
Just went to my neighborhood Super Target and grabbed the first blue/black console they had, surely enough it was 2012. Got home, opened it up, 4.4. Bingo.
The guy acted surprised I wanted an older one (of course I didn't say WHY I wanted an older one) but considering they had very few left and this was a really popular/huge Target, I'm surprised they actually had some.

It was originally released in Dec 2012 so it should be. But who knows, Nintendo might have done a reprint, checking for a (c) 2012 would confirm a 4.5 or lower
Bought the 3DS XL White + MarioKart 7 Bundle today. Firmware 4.3.0
. Yessssssss............( (c) 2012 btw !)

Only thing drive me crazy is all these new horror games nowadays is its so dark, all time. I can't even play them. I understand they trying to create spooky but be creative a little, not just darkness with pop out scare scenes.+1
