3DS system updates are a regular occurrence, but as we've figured out in the past they often have goals other than bringing shiny new features to gamers. They deliver 'stability', meaning that your portable is so stable that it's - well - almost too much to handle.
System update 9.5.0-23 is here and it has the following - predictable - information on the official changelog.
Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience.
Riveting stuff. As before, we suspect this is code for 'shutting down hacker's exploits', and there's chatter around this being the case once again. We're going to rummage around on some forums to find some details.
In any case, how are you liking all of this stability?

I bet that's the free jewels-and-money exploit in Pokemon Shuffle gone then.
I wouldn't be surprised if this was patching out the browser exploit that people are using with Pokémon Shuffle and ORAS.
I read somewhere that it disables the browser exploit.
We need more stability for Nintendo consoles. It's not enough
One person's unprecedented stability, is another's unprecedented relationship.
Yay?
STABILITY LIKE YOU'VE NEVER KNOWN BEFORE!
Who knows? Maybe this is a secret amiibo update for the NGC addon?
Nah.
Just Nintendo tightening the region lock.
Hopefully it blocks the use of Sky 3ds..
People stealing games and companies making money from flash cards really pisses me off.
Wish my Vita had some stability updates.
I hope that they'll improve the performance of older pre-installed 3DS apps on the New 3DS. I've noticed that it no longer takes as long for Nintendo 3DS Camera to load, however, StreetPass Plaza still has the somewhat annoying loading times and occasionally inconsistent frame rates (particularly in the DLC games).
I'm not expecting Game Freak to improve the performance of the 3DS Pokémon games, however, I am expecting something in the vein of Pokémon Z which would be exclusive for the New 3DS, and include 3D throughout the entire game (because let's face it, the best we can hope in the way of New 3DS exclusives are ports).
I never understood why these version names need to be so long. Couldn't they have just called it 9.6 instead of 9.5.0-23...? XD
@CB85 lol yeah i dont get that either seems stupid to me e.O or maybe its like when you trying to save a pic to your pc and it auto shows up some random tittle for it...maybe its something like that? :S
So stable so my 3ds working slower from one update to another?
F*** y** "dear" Nintendo.
I will wait now or till some good game with online playing mode get discount.
Later......
wild 3ds appeared....kiaaah
nintendo used stability....
super effective
What happened to Sticker Star Mario? he is always the one delivering the updates, right Tom?
@sillygostly I tried to take a visit to the world of pokemon after years and years with X, but the horrible frame rate and 3d just killed it. How could such a beloved franchise be such an unpolished turd? So I agree!
Wow this stability is making me go insane!Of how great it is!
After all these stability updates, I wonder what each tastes like for some people...for me, pancakes
Hey, this new update really makes my 3DS XL more stable than before. Now I can move my head around and the 3d effect looks stable. No need to buy the New 3DS now, yipee!
@DarkNinja9
I have no idea, but I'd assume Nintendo could easily change whatever name such an update gets.
My 3DS is so stable that my hunter in MH4U doesn't need Rock Steady to have perfect balance.
Just when I thought super stable 3D was enough for my New Nintendo 3DS XL, it just got way more stable. It wreaks of stability in here. ┌( ಠ‿ಠ)┘
'Unprecedented stability' on Wii U updates pretty much means 'crashes even more with 3rd party games' as far as mine is concerned.
RegionThree is gone ... that means I will not be updating my system until I import Rhythm Heaven 3DS and play through it ... lol :V
@crzysortagamer : I often turn the 3D off because the poor frame rate is simply aggravating. If they can't do something right, then they shouldn't do it at all. I've played both X and Alpha Sapphire and I have enjoyed them, but they are not up to the standard that I have come to expect from Game Freak.
