  No worries! Yes, the dump unfortunately won’t have any use after the 8th. This is because the useful part of the dump is a URL which the devs need in order to access the content from Nintendo’s servers before they shut down. Once the servers are down, the URL’s can technically still be dumped, but they will just now be useless.

      Fwiw, if you have a cfw 3ds (and it sounds like you do :)) the process is crazy easy. Just download the program it talks about, run it while your 3ds is connected to the Internet, and it’ll grab the dump and upload it for you. From downloading the CIA file on universal updater, to running the tool. It takes like 5 min. It’s very quick and easy!
