R4 flashcard doesn't play 3DS-roms

[berry_78]

Hello everyone!

I recently purchased a new R4 flashcard (see image) for playing 3DS-roms. Unfortunately, it doesn't play 3DS-roms.. :|

Does anyone know if this card is capable of playing those roms, or maybe I'm not using the right software?

Thanks!

I don't believe condoning piracy is allowed in these forums.

But to answer your question no. If you'd read the info, you'd have saved yourself some money.

Any suggestions for a flashcard who can actually play 3DS roms?

The concept is dead for the 3DS because it can update its firmware.

Just disable the network connection to prevent updates.

So yeah, you have to find a 3DS that is on some old firmware and then never update.

It looks like you guys really hate the concept of playing backup games :| !

Lol, I promise you its quite the opposite. There just isn't the same community for this around the 3DS that the DS had.

Your signature already suggested that!

Time will tell about the 3DS-flashcard community. I just found this card:

They say it works for playing 3DS-roms with the most recent Nintendo firmware (9.2.0-20). I guess it's worth a try..
