So with all the buzz going on I imagine i should update from a9lh to boot9

Can I format to remove everything and my nnid and will it stay hacked?

Can I backup my saved for a potential future ds?

Thanks!

Reformatting through the System Setting will basically remove everything and keep your system hacked.
There is still currently to known method of restoring a NAND backup from one system to another without bricking the system. NANDs are encrypted to the system that backed them up. As well backing them up and restoring them still requires all of the SD content for the games to work. So you will need to make sure those are backed up as well.
So basically you need to whole damn SD card.

Thanks! You pretty much answered everything I needed. Stinks about the complications of save backups. Guess I'll upload my Pokémon to poke bank and call it a day.

Once I restore through system setting everything hack wise will still be intact. CIAs will install still?

Reformatting will not remove the hacks and all features can still be used

    I know the pricing of electronics nowadays isn't "how much it actually costs" but "how much we can get away with", but putting up a poll is just cynical.
