| Question | Answer | |----------|--------| | | No. The undub is based on the English (US/EU) release, which already contains the English text. The process simply removes the unused Japanese audio files that are present in the cartridge for the Japanese market. | | Will the undub affect story or gameplay? | No. The only content removed is the Japanese voice data. All scripts, dialogues, items, enemies, and mechanics remain unchanged. | | Can I play the undub on a retail 3DS without a flashcard? | No. Retail 3DS consoles only run signed Nintendo‑issued titles. To load a custom ROM you need a home‑brew environment (CFW) and a flashcard or SD card injection method. | | Is the undub compatible with DLC? | Generally, yes. Since DLC is delivered as separate titles, the undub does not interfere. However, some fan‑made DLC translation packs require the base ROM to be unmodified; in those cases you may need the original (non‑undub) ROM. | | Will the undub survive future emulator updates? | Most emulator updates are backward‑compatible, but a major change to the 3DS kernel emulation could require a re‑packing of the ROM. The community typically updates the undub scripts to keep pace. | Discussing the technical process is permissible, but sharing
