noob question: the legit cia file must stay forever in the sd card after the install?

Why don't the "legit" CIA files stay linked to your NNID? The ones that come preinstalled onto 3DS bundles do, why don't the installed CIAs?

From what I understand you can delete the file that you used to instal from. But then again I have yet to get this to work a single fricken time for me on any of the CIA I have managed to find!!!!!
I just want the fricken LEGIT POKEMON GAMES!!!!!!

nope, you can delete it from the SD card. I would however keep a backup on a computer in case you need it again as links go down all the time for games.

Because the bundled ones don't have NNIDs yet. It's like when NNIDs were coming to 3DS. Anything previously purchased became tied to the NNID. It wouldn't make sense to magically tie a game that randomly showed up on your 3DS out of the blue now would it?

yes

 

[WaffleWafer]

yes

Thanks, another question: I'm planning to buy 16 or 32GB tomorrow. If I transfer all my files from the 4GB on to the new SD card, will it still work? Or do i need to do everything from the beginning?

A quick question about legit CIAs: Can I play with them online? I didn't see any of that Online-Ready, and Online-Patched next to their games.

EDIT: 'Cause I've succesfully installed Mario Kart 7.

Got it menuhax, installing dream team at 10%. Let's see.

Which is why I wanna know if anybody has even tried.

there's no reason to try, it just can't work.

just copy all files to pc and then to the new card. dont put the new card in before you copied the files though, or it'll screw with your themes and downloads
