I been trying to get Pokemon Omega Ruby with NASA. So I downloaded the .cia file and copied it to my SD card. Then I went to NASA to install the cia. But I couldn't because I didn't have enough space. I didn't have enough space because of the .cia file. It's like 1,854,071 KB! So I was wondering if there was a way to increase SD card space. I heard of SData, but does it work?

EDIT: Finally got a Samsung 128gb SD card at Best Buy. It cost around 50 bucks, but it's totally worth it. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Best answer would be buy a bigger SD card.

I picked up a 64GB microSD card from Best Buy on Thursday for 20 bucks before tax. They constantly have SD cards on sale.

I sure hope you're not using the default 4GB sd card... get yourself a 64GB card, stat. Or delete other games. Or install the .cia using an FTP program.

Not sure if this is a troll post or not. ~2gb isn't all that large really, being that there's 200gb microSD cards, and 512gb(!) standard SD cards on the market.

I heard that I could download some amiibo through the eShop. But when I asked how, they said that since I'm using an old 3DS, I need to download more RAM (since the new 3D has this built-in). However, they linked me to a Windows site (www.downloadmoreram.com) and it doesn't work on my 3DS. Can someone link the correct site?

Well the G4 and V10 support 2TB micro SD Cards [In Theory]
But the biggest SD Card I know of is 512GB ((500 fucking $$? SanDisk u WoT))

The pricing on memory is more of an exponential increase rather than linear. Basically, think of it this way: it's easier to put less onto something than to put more.

Finally that 4th badge is mine. :)

It's impossible to increase your SD card's space. Buy a bigger SD card. Or if you have the space to install it, but not enough for the cia, use FBI an installed it over your network.
But seriously, buy a bigger SD card, they are cheap as shit nowadays. It's not like when I was young and I bought a 4GB sd costing 54$ at the time!
