EmuNAND stands for "Emulated NAND". EmuNAND allows custom apps because they didn't work on the SysNAND ("System NAND"). EmuNAND is different from SysNAND, so it is not possible. But, they are both the same thing: NAND. So, it's possible, but it's highly unlikely to work. EmuNAND stuff can be transferred to another EmuNAND, same thing for SysNAND. But you cannot do it from EmuNAND to SysNAND, but it can be done vice versa.

You can do a System Transfer to carry your eShop purchases and NNID from your emuNAND to another 3DS' sysNAND. I've done this on a few different occasions. They will force you to update the firmware on both units, and you'll need to connect to the internet. Unsigned and homebrew CIAs won't carry over.

One of us doesn't know what they're talking about. Maybe things changed while I wasn't looking?

It's been a while, but I don't remember doing anything special. Just make sure that you're in emuNAND before you start the transfer.

Once you transfer your NNID to your new system, you won't be able to login to it on the old one, if this was your intention. That means no eShop or Miiverse.

I got an NNID on emuNAND and another one on sysNAND

I am already, but will the NNID of O3DS sysNAND be unable to be used after the transfer?
If it's a separate account from your emuNAND's, it shouldn't be.

Though, I haven't done this myself. Never had an NNID on sysNAND. For what it's worth, though, my sysNAND looked to be untouched when I transferred the emuNAND.

Thanks, I'll try Monday/later next week and I'll let you know if it did go right

    @Xdqwerty, Nice. Which operating system are you installing?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, windows 10 and some linux distro like linux mint
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    dualbooth
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Yeah, I'd recommend having another OS just in-case you want to play games.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least Linux doesn't contain spyware than what Windows has.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, cuz of lag?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No. Whenever you use the internet on Windows, Microsoft collects personal data and installs bloatware that isn't necessarily needed, such as Edge.

    @SylverReZ,
    I recall @impeeza mentioned some trick about not having bloatware when installing windows where you set up your country to "world" or smh like that

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yes, you can debloat the operating system, but in some cases for me it just reinstalls them.

    @SylverReZ,
    I also recall my brother downloded a "non bloated" version of windows 11 on his pc

  • impeeza @ impeeza:
    @Xdqwerty yes, when you are installing Windows on the first steps you are asked for your current location, you MUST to select «international» so no bloatware is installed, because the bloatware is location based. if this night I have some time I will setup a VM and take screenshots.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think my favorite one was that dancing purple gorilla... I uninstalled that thing from sooo many machine people would be like "Why is my computer so slow?" lol because this thing is using like 30% of your system resources.....
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    This one lady... her son kept installing Kazaa... OK no problem the issue is he would download DBZ movies and they where amazing usually like 2-8KB in size lol can't remember how many times I had to format and reinstall windows over his stupidity. I even explained to him about file sizes multiple times...
