3DS Action Replay Tutorial (2024)

In this video, I go over the new process for getting the Action Replay Plugin installed on your 3DS. This is an update to my 2021 tutorial.

Link to the .3GX file in the video:

This will NOT work for original Nintendo DS games OR Virtual Console games!!!

This is an update on my Action Replay Plugin tutorial from 2021. That one is outdated and I don't recommend it anymore. This tutorial is much clearer and easier to follow and since luma merged the plugin, it's now much easier to get setup. Thanks for all of the comments and support on my old tutorial and on my videos in general, I really appreciate it!

IMPORTANT! When I said "you don't need a boot.firm anymore, " I was talking about the old modified one in my old tutorial. You still need your boot.firm that comes bundled with luma lol. Don't delete your boot.firm.

Thanks for making this. It's great to have a guide for the new version of Luma, so I don't have to hunt through gbatemp.
