So basically all this needs is a file on an SD card and an Internet connection and you're good to go. Fantastic news as it works on 9.4 too!

But Hasney, what if I'm out and want to boot an out of region game?!
Well the easiest way would be to use your phone as a hotspot, but failing that, say when there's no signal, there's an Android app!
Download the .apk here, then enable unknown sources and install it using an Android file browser.
But Hasney, what happens when I run a certain game? Can you tell me? We'll love you even more!
No, I can't. HOWEVER, gingerbearman has your hookup and has started a Wiki guide about what happens with certain games with certain regions 3DS's. Take a peek and add your own findings:

How to use
Download Launcher.dat from the repo (or compile it yourself) : https://github.com/smealum/regionthree/raw/master/Launcher.dat
Copy Launcher.dat to the root of your SD card
Insert the game you want to run into your 3DS and power it up
Open the "Download Play" application
Hit the home menu button, but do not exit the Download Play application (keep it running in the background)
Open the Web Browser applet
Go to Gateway's exploit page (not linking directly to it here because not a fan of their whole piracy thing they've got going)
Wait a few seconds; screen should turn black and after a bit your game should boot up !

To use this via wifi tethering, hotspot or whatever your phone/tablet may call it (why can't they just use one name?)
Make sure MOBILE DATA IS OFF, so 3G, 4G etc OFF
And also make sure normal WIFI is OFF
Also add a connection to your 3DS with your hotspot ssid added, most likely be something like AndroidAP, AndroidMaster not sure what other default ones there are but if you've changed it already you should know what it is.
And for the other option local network, well that's just the usual wifi. Both your phone/tablet and 3DS connected to the same network. EG: Phone connected to home wifi 1, 3ds also connected to home wifi 1.
