You can use a SD card adapter so just buy a micro SD to futureproof yourself, the new 3DS will only take in micro SD as well if you change to it in the future.


Yeah, but the problem there is that when the MicroSD is used in an SD adapter, the speed DROPS, as it has to re-route through another connection. The Golden Rule of computers is that the shorter the distance, the better it works.

Which is usually why I frown upon adapters, daisy chains, and long USB cords. I've actually solved problems removing those issues. I've had issues where the drive wouldn't read with a long USB cord, where drives were having slowdown on daisy chains, and where SD cards were fast by themselves, but slower in the adapter.

Been repairing and tech supporting for over ten years. You'd be amazed what you run into

Best I can tell you is get a SD card for EmuNAND if you're using it on a 3DS and a MicroSD card if using on a N3DS.

Also, don't worry about future proofing as prices ALWAYS go down on storage. That 64GB card you'd pay $60 for now, will be only $40 six months from now. As storage goes up, prices drop.

I remember paying $150 for a 2TB drive last year. This year, I only paid $89 for it.

Nice point. I'm going to buy a normal SD. Thanks

And also remember as I added to my post. Don't worry about future proofing as by the time you're ready to get a MicroSD, the price will have dropped by then. They always do.

I only get Sandisk ones. That's why. I pay for the best brand. You know what they say, you get what you pay for. I've bough PNY's and Kingston's only for them to fail on me after a while.
