3DS firmware update now available

UPDATE - This firmware update allows you to update your 3DS without having to input your parental control pin.

Another 3DS firmware update has hit, but we're not too sure what this one does. I'm thinking it's nothing major, but once we get the details on it I'll be sure to share. Thanks to all that sent this in!

Google Translate does it near perfectly. Basically just a stability thing I believe.

That seems to mention the purpose of every update that's existed. I don't know how much help that is

Well, if you read it, it said it does not include the following. That's because they were in previous updates. The new Camera feature was the ability to record video.

I wish it was a YouTube app.

I've been trying for like 3 days to download 3D videos off YouTube so I can watch them on my 3DS. Every method I've been able to find doesn't work (either it's a problem with downloading or the programs).

Come on Nintendo! Make it easy to watch 3D videos and upload your own videos straight to YouTube. It seems like the 10 minute limit was put in place for that reason.

Okay first of all you're all stupid to think there was a YouTube app. Nintendo would of released a PR announcement and gloated about that. Secondly is it really that needed of a feature there are plenty of other devices that could stream YouTube faster and with better quality than the 3DS.

MARIO KART 7 PATCH 1.1 IS LIVE IN THE ESHOP (4.1.0.8 is REQUIRED to access the eshop to download it)

however, the patch does not DELETE the Ghost data of the cheaters, so the cheaters times are still showing up on maka wuhu.. 19 second laps my butt... time to kill these cheaters once and for all!

@GolfDudeGhost time aren't gone? I'll bet there's a second patch then to hopefully fix that. Jeez, better but not yet fully fixed.

correct.. it took a bit longer than it normally did to load the ghost data of this cheater too, and low and behold, he did the cheat move as i raced him ( i stopped racing at the shortcut pt just to watch him do it ).. the cheater ghost times are still there.. they only blocked the shortcut from being done after this point (and you cant play online without the update, so no more cheaters there.. but their times are still there :( )

I think we can all get over the fact of cheater times still being there and be more happy with the fact that Maka Wuhu will finally be patched! :D

It was a joke. The gamecube thing should have given it away.I thought it was quite obvious
