Instead of wasting another $5 why not do this:

1)Install fieldrunner on source 3ds
2)dsi transfer to son 3ds
3)wait 7 days
4)use son's 3ds to transfer the same fieldrunner to other son's 3ds

After tranfer it does. I don't know why but it does end up on both 3ds.

How can an nnid appear on both 3ds if the source 3ds doesn't have an nnid to begin with? Please stop trying to confuse the op and stop commenting, some of us actually got this handled already.

I'm assuming that the second transfer (from son 1 to son 2 in your step 4) will lock son 1's NNID to son 2's o3DS, therefore son 1 then cannot use his NNID on his o3DS ?
 
Awesome, many thanks. Sounds like I have a plan.

Buy field runners on source o3DS
Follow the guide for DSIware downgrade.
Buy field runners again on source o3DS
Follow the guide for DSIware downgrade on other sons o3DS (7 days later)

Thanks all for your help

Instead of buying Fieldrunners twice, how about you just make a NAND backup of the source O3DS after buying Fieldrunners, and then restore the NAND after you've performed the DSiWare downgrade? I've never done a DSiWare downgrade but this should work, provided that the purchase of Fieldrunners isn't associated with a NNID. I'm pretty sure you can buy DSiWare from the eShop without an NNID.

Then system format all the 3ds to get rid of the current nnid. After hacks are done, you can relink the nnid.

I believe my ways is easier, he still has to wait 7 days regardless

I thought I read somewhere that the source NNID is still stuck on the target o3DS after a system transfer, even if you system format the consoles. I'll try and find the links

Then format all the 3ds that you have so there's no nnids to begin with. What part of formatting everything, don't you understand? Format everything, and then do dsi transfer, after hacks of all 3ds are done, relink the nnids

Apologies. It's not my intention to offend you as you have been very helpful. I fully understand what you mean by formatting everything. I am a mature I.T. Consultant working for one of the largest I.T. Service providers in the world on 10-100 million pound contracts.. please don't be condescending.....

If there isn't any NNID on his console then how can he buy Fieldrunner without NNID? What dumb logic are you tryin to use here? are you some kind of idiot? if he buy the fieldrunner then formates his console. Then the fieldrunner also gets removed from his console.

Are you some kind of idiot yourself? You don't need an NNID to buy games, only to download free demos and things. If you have no idea about the 3DS console, please stop replying to questions and spreading damaging false information. Congrats, you made my ignore list.

For the record, I successfully purchased Fieldrunners without an NNID on the source system. This will come as a shock to some of you, and not so much to others :)

If I could ask another question.... in order to avoid my son stabbing me in my sleep, I want to ensure everything on his 3DS is backed up (his is the target o3DS). I've copied the SD card contents somewhere safe and will do a NAND backup as part of following the guide. The guide mentions saving save games using JKSM.... how do I use this on his unhacked o3DS running v11?

Use homebrew and run JKSM. You can follow Part 1 Decrypt9->Hombrew (Browser) to set up menuhax.

Oh ok never bought a game before from eshop. I usually buy hack tools instead of wasting money digital games. when I downloaded the save transfer tool from eshop I remember I had to make an NNID to download the thing. So it was not a demo.
