Hello! May be a silly question but I want to go online in Alpha Sapphire, but I need to update the game to do so. But I can't log into the eShop to update it because I'm not at the right update for the 3DS. But, my friend's DS is at the update that allows me to update at the eShop. In short, can I update my game on my friends DS so I can retain my ability to hack on my DS? Thank you in advance!
If your friend’s DS is already updated / they are okay with you updating their DS, AND you have a PHYSICAL cartridge, then yes, you can update your cartridge on their DS and then go back to your un-updated DS with your newly updated cartridge. You can’t do that with a downloaded copy of Sapphire though.
