Nintendo 3DS XL R4?

Post by Joro »

Automatically translated from French.

Hi, I intend to buy a Nintendo 3DS XL

Is it possible to launch games via an R4 or something else
On DS the name was R4, now I don't know I'm a bit lost with all the nintendos xD

Thanks in advance for answering me kindly

Hi

If you're talking about 3ds games the answer is no. And yes for ds games only.

Hello so if I understood correctly with a 3dsXL you can just run your Nintendo DS roms? Nothing else?
And what do you do that with?

Thank you!

The dsi is a sham. There were very few real dsi games and those rare games don't work on a linker, same as 3ds games

Sorry it's me again :) Instead of opening a new topic I'm writing here lol,

Could you recommend a website for ordering an R4 For 3DS XL? knowing that my 3DS XL has the latest current firmware 5.0.0-11 I believe

In a shop near me they're offering me this one: https://www.crown-3ds.us/media/catalog/ ... 0000_8.jpg
For 25 Euros

What can you do with this R4? is it worth the price? Do you know of cheaper ones? Thanks :D

Hello so here I am, I bought it anyway and it's not working? Lol

When I launch the card, on the console it shows me "An error has occurred.
Hold down the POWER button to turn off the console..."

Which one is not compatible? Please tell me otherwise :93:

Yet on the site: https://r4i-sdhc.com/ it says: Support the lasted N3DS version: 5.0.0-11

You maybe just don't have the card updated to the latest firmware ... I don't know this card very well but try anyway ;)

What do you mean I don't have the card updated to the latest firmware? I don't understand

I just downloaded from the card's official website https://r4i-sdhc.com/ version 1.67b

and put it in my MicroSD which is in my R4 3DS

On my DS Lite the R4 works but not on my 3DS :?

Clearly you're up to date but there's definitely a hitch somewhere ... I'm sorry but I don't think I can be of much help on this one, I'll pass it on ...

What folders and files do you have on your microsd? Does it say v4.5 or RTS on your linker

As files on the R4 I have the files that the guy told me to download in the archive "moonshl2" "R4.dat" "R4iMenu" "moonmemo"

And yes apparently you absolutely need an R4 3DS marked v4.5 or RTS? Is that it? Because mine doesn't have that :93:

I'm going to bring it back tomorrow, he told me if it doesn't work he'll refund me ^^

Just need to order it now :( I don't really like ordering online, does anyone have a good reasonable site? :)

What's on your linker? Look on the site, it shows you the different labels. You need to get the kernel matching your label and therefore your linker's version. Then if it doesn't work, you can bring it back at that point.

On my linker there's nothing at all, well like in this photo: https://www.crown-3ds.us/media/catalog/ ... 0000_8.jpg

It's exactly the same

Look at this link: https://r4i-sdhc.com/downloade.asp further down there are several versions of the linker with different labels. It's well explained with pictures. You need to get the kernel that matches your linker. If what you're saying is right, it's this kernel:
https://www.r4i-sdhc.com/R4i%20V1.11d%20French.zip
But well... They don't bother much... They sold you an old model. :evil:

[Little off topic] I'm just going to squat the topic, especially not acekard ... For them it's dead for firmwares and unluckily I have 2 of them and the worst part is that for Easter my son got the game luigi mansion 2 with a nice 3DS update that comes with it ... here I am with 2 3DS with firmware 4.5.0.9 and 4.5.0.10 and the acekerd doesn't work anymore ... No luck, I'll keep searching a bit online but I think it's dead now! All that's left is to buy a DSTWO or an R4! [/End off topic]

There you go for info ;)

Otherwise for buying a linker:

https://www.digimartz.com/ (Canadian site)

Here an R4 3DS V4.5 ---> https://www.digimartz.com/r4isdhc-3ds-f ... _p745.html

And here another card I hadn't seen before, does anyone know it? ---> https://www.digimartz.com/ace3ds-plus_p1026.html

And now :bn: .... One hour less sleep and he's still squatting the fofo at 1:35am :mrgreen:

I 200% agree with your rant. I'm in the same situation :( moreover on LS they're talking about the latest 5.0.0-11 3ds update which would plug a flaw that was still in development. Maybe we'll get a release. ^^' wait and see ^^'

I searched until 3am last night and apparently the only card that would allow getting past the 5.0.0.11 UPDATE would be the R4! All that's left is to order an R4! I also read that the hitch with the acekard isn't that the team isn't looking anymore but that it would be a direct hardware issue with the card ... A new acekard coming? No idea but in the meantime, I strongly advise against buying an acekard!

And yes he sold me an old version :cry: I brought it back and got refunded as expected
He assured me that if I gave him my 3DS XL the next day he'd bring it back with the linker working properly but well :93:

I took it back, I didn't want to leave my 3DS :(

Oops I had tried your kernel and it still didn't work ^^

So it's only the R4s marked RTS or v4.5 that work, but well if I buy online from canada, is there customs?
Don't want to end up with an r4 for 50 Euros :mrgreen:

Having the 3ds in hand wouldn't have changed anything.
I order from Japan and I've never had a customs problem.

The site is hosted in the USA but the domain name belongs to someone from Lyon.

On the other hand, I don't see any mention of the SIRET which makes me doubt this is legally a French merchant.

It's either a lack of knowledge of the current legislation, or an unintentional omission or not...
