title: "Region Changing"

{% include toc title="Table of Contents" %}

### Required Reading

This is add-on section for region changing your CFW SysNAND. This is done by installing the 11.5.0 CTRTransfer image for the region you want to switch to.

Note that region changing is almost completely unnecessary since Luma3DS supports out-of-region games and individual [title region emulation](https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/wiki/Options-and-usage). Additionally, running NDS games with alternative out-of-region languages is supported [DSiMenu++](https://github.com/Robz8/TWiLightMenu/releases).

To use the [magnet](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet_URI_scheme) links on this page, you will need a torrent client like [Deluge](http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Download).

Note that if you have any payload files other than `GodMode9.firm` in the `/luma/payloads/` folder on your SD card, holding (Start) on boot will display a "chainloader menu" where you will have to use the D-Pad and the (A) button to select "GodMode9" for these instructions. 

Denne prosessen vil delinke NNIDen din fra systemet, siden den vil ikke lenger være kompatibel. NNID's are locked to the region of your device that created them and cannot be transferred between regions without [a very complex and advanced process](https://gist.githubusercontent.com/yifanlu/e80db121d38aceb8cca0e03cefd5853b/raw/3c4dd89869156ca0f945a2791e699acfdb32b510/gistfile1.txt).
{: .notice--warning}

After this process, only **New 3DSs which have never accessed the eShop before** and **all Old 3DSs** will be able to access the eShop after creating a new NNID on their new region. Regionsbyttede New 3DSer som allerede har åpnet eShop i deres originale region, kann ikke lage en ny NNID og få tilgang til eShop i deres nye region!
{: .notice--warning}

Legg merke til at noen ganger vil eShop uforklarlig fortsatt ikke virke for enheter som de burde virke for. Dette har bare noe med Nintendos servere å gjøre, og jeg har ikke noe kontroll over det. Additionally, note that occasionally the eShop will inexplicably work for devices that it should not (such as some New 3DSs). The cause for this is currently unknown.

Regionsbytte ved hjelp av CTRTransfer (som denne metoden bruker) ser ut til å forårsake nystartspatcher til å ikke fungere mer. The cause for this is unknown, but Old 3DS users, for now, will be unable to play extended memory mode games (such as Monster Hunter, Super Smash Bros, and Pokémon Sun / Moon) until they format their devices.

You MUST have already installed Luma3DS and boot9strap to use this.
