About this deal
Copy the CtrBootManager.3dsx and the boot.cfg files from inside the CtrBootManager Release folder of the Release zip onto the root of your SD Card.
We are now done with this part. Press Start to reboot. Read the next short part, to get an idea of how to install your GBA//DSiWare .CIA games.However, unlinking will format SysNAND, thankfully, setting up RedNAND has allowed us to create a copy of our SysNAND onto RedNAND. So everything is now on our RedNAND.
You'll need to actually boot into SysNAND to see the theme. Either boot into SysNAND by holding L at boot time, or by launching Luma3DS from CtrBootManager while holding L. (This is assuming you followed my recommendations)
Optional) Customize CtrBootManager to however you want using the wiki for an explanation of what every option does: https://github.com/OperationNT414C/CtrBootManager/wiki/CtrBootManager-setup If you are not on 9.0-9.2, but on 9.3 to 10.7, then use Part 1 and Part 2 of Plailect's A9LH guide to downgrade to 9.2.
If you do not see "Emu" in front of the version number, then you are not on RedNAND. DO NOT UPDATE, FIND OUT WHAT WENT WRONG. Unfortunately, the 2DS also features the worst battery life of the three current models. Each lasts a minimum of 3.5 hours depending on brightness and wireless settings, but the 2DS caps out at 5.5 hours of use. The New 3DS XL gets around a half-hour more than that, and we don't know how the New 2DS XL performs yet. Who is the 2DS For?Once you've got a 3DS, start building your game collection with lengthy titles and some hidden gems from the eShop.
