Gaming 3DS DSiWare Transfer Damaged My DSi?!

[HtheB]

Well, there are a couple Sudoku games that weren't compatible with the 3DS transfer...

But afaik, the EA Sudoku hack wasn't on the list...
So..... Did anyone tried to send the sudoku game to their 3DS yet? (without problems ofcourse

)

Some people already tried,

The game works perfectly, but obviously the exploit doesn't work anymore.

lmao, nobody noticed it seems to be happening to only EU users? I'md oin it now on a NA DSi, so i'll see.

 

[DjoeN]

I got a little question

I got 2 DSi's with dsiware on, can i transffer from both dsi's to 1 3ds?
Both DSi's are linked to the same nintendo account (same as my 3ds)

And to those who already transffered there dsiware, how does dsiware look on the 3ds screen?
(tell me not like DS games, cause that would be awefull)

@DjoeN
Yes, you can even transfer DSi Ware from 3DS to 3DS with the new function!

 

[gluxon]

I got the transfer to work fine this morning. I use my AceKard 2i on both my DSi and 3DS.

Ecuador is part of latin america and we have NA region and servers.

Dindnt brick my US DSi, Lol, only happening to europe,

 

[felixsrg]

A friend of mine did the same thing and got his DSi bricked, and as c9003947 said latin-america is part of the US region.

So, let me get this straight - if the Nintendo servers are so busy that you get a timeout during a download from the DSi shop, your DSi is bricked??

This is what it looks like to me (from my limited knowledge, but I am a programmer and I manage my own web servers).

Edit: I guess that's what you get with thousands of users waiting to download your software on the 7th June... Doh!

The DSi ware transfer and the 2.0 3DS firmware update are two different things...

But anyways, it's not about timeout during the download. Seems like European DSi's get an error at 99% of the download for the DSi ware transfer and bricks the DSi after resetting as the error tells you to do.

 

[Another World]

i'm curious to find out if removing the battery clears any part that is holding the 99% transfer or some pointer to it.

might be worth a try before you stay on hold with nintendo for an hour.

That behaviour you describe does fit the bill - of course the 3DS update went OK, that's where Ninty concentrated their efforts. But we are all still waiting till 7th June for this transfer app, so maybe the DSi has a bug in the software that doesn't handle server timeouts (which only occur under heavy-traffic or malfunctioning servers).

Edit: I have a UK DSi and 3DS but now I'm hesitating....

 

[DjoeN]

European DSi (Belgium)
No problems updating the DSi and downloading the transffer program.
Transffering dsiware to 3ds works fine

 

[scandal_uk]

Maybe the traffics died down now..? lol

Upon checking out the store entry myself it states it DOES require WFC access, so it seems it would just make the 3DS download the patched version from the current store.

 

[samethernet]

No brick here on my Australian DSI

 

[Alanturing]

timeout is unlikely

this program probably erase the nand and possible changes the consoles unique key as to not let you have your content on both devices.

that the way i would do it

1.copy data over
2.erase maybe a file system format nand
3.change unique key

 

[Schizoanalysis]

Just to double check,
I can't transfer the DSiWare from my Japanese DSi XL to my US 3DS can I?

I would expect not, but, can't hurt to ask...
