So that picture is on a new nintendo 3dsxl cause yes it probably does now support upto 128GB cards, I'm not on about that I'm on about the original 3ds models.
oh for crying out loud. how clear do I have to make this to you? ALL 3DS CONSOLES HAVE ALWAYS SUPPORTED ALL SDXC CARDS UP TO 128GB AS LONG AS THEY ARE FORMATTED TO FAT32 FIRST.
read this. educate yourself. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=488934
And if you assume that photo I posted which is from 2012 is about the N3DS, then you need to work on your concept of time. 2012 was three years ago, for example. yeah, that's hard to understand but you'll get there. I promise.
I always go BIG man.I dont know wtf im gonna do when n3ds support is released. I have 3 white consoles to upgrade sd cards in to put CIA on there...
only way to save time is by installing whatever that you want to install on the 3 consoles all at the same time.
Pretty much. Last Saturday he said he would update us all "at the latest by Sunday." Well, he's five days late and no one has heard squat. F that noise.
Okay:
On one side, we have your friend who claims that his 64GB SD card would not work on his 3DS. You also have Nintendo's official site which states there is a limit of 32GB.
Only thing which I find odd is that there is no additional info for your friend's 64GB SD card. For all I know it could have been a fake or not properly formatted.
Nintendo's claims about this limit come from the fact that the SD Association's guidelines (Which is supported by their commercial formatting tool) do not allow SD cards formatted in FAT32 cannot be larger than 32GB. What this means is that you cannot have a single FAT32 partition on an SD card that is larger than 32GB.
What I propose is that those claims are artificial limits. What I fall back on to prove this point are various forum threads, news posts and maybe videos.
First of all, what seems to be the case is that there have been claims by various users all around who claim they have successfully loaded an SD card larger than 32GB on their 3DS.
If it is indeed true, then that must mean that they achieved having a primary FAT32 partition larger than 32GB on a single SD card. It is fact that 3DS will not recognize any other file system other than FAT32.
What we have to backup such claims are the following:
Therefore, I can conclude that the 3DS can support SD cards larger than 32GB, even way back to 4.5
The usual argument is that these sites have no authority. Yes, that is indeed fact and I have nothing to say against that.
What I find wrong with such logic though is that such logic is flawed, in that this is what we do all the time (We are at GBAtemp hacking our 3DSes). We are not following the authorities' guidelines, we are doing something that is not intended.
Formatting an SDXC card to FAT32 is unintended, and you are against that.
Why then are you not against hacking a 3DS?

The only reason why Nintendo says cards above 32gigs aren't supported. Is because they technically aren't out of box. With some correct formatting it is compatible though.
I use 64gig SD card in my 2ds. Zero issues.

Awww yeah. Is your MM 3DS in store pickup though? I opted for next day shipping - I lucked out and got one during the "super secret" in-store only pre-order last Friday at Gamestop. Hoping it comes the 14th and not the following Monday... And I have $30 in BestBuy bucks for the MM physical cart. Can't wait!!!
Welcome to GBAtemp. Where everyone is full of speculation and misleading information, and no one knows jack shit.
Its Gateways fault, no update= people arguing about the shape of a Cloud or damn memory cards, at this rhythm this is going to be a 1:1 reproduction of the old mighty clasterfuck that was the original thread.
"Saturday night's x-party at the nursing home."
Or, "Gateway's entire market communication model." You decide.

And if GW doesn't pull through, you'll buy a QQ3ds right?
