== v9.9 dummy web-browser ==
+
The gamecard v9.9 sysupdate included with some games contains a dummy Old3DS/New3DS web-browser. The *only* thing this title does is display the same message listed in the above forced-update section. The message files in RomFS *only* contain that message string above. There are no "http" strings in the main codebin, and [[RO_Services|RO]] isn't used either(no CRO data in RomFS at all). Both browsers are internally called "dummySpider".

Hence, if you update your system from pre-v9.9 using a gamecard with v9.9, the system web-browser will be rendered *completely* useless until you install a system-update from CDN(no network requests involved here).
