I tried, and it didn't unban the target system, which is weird, in theory. I used the "With PC" method, though I doubt it makes any difference.

That's strange, you'd think it would work the same. I'm just preparing my unbanned and my banned 3DS for System Transfer now, so will try the without PC method and see if it works. Can't do the method posted above as the banned one is an N3DS and both my unbanned ones are O3DS. :(

Please report, I would love to know how it turns out. I'm in the same situation.. and all my friends have O3DSs. <__<
Unless someone on here lives in Montreal, and has a New 3DS. :P

can i do this with any 3ds? plan to buy one just for friend code and swap them if the 0102 is lifted in 15 days
 
When you say

5) Start the system transfer process from system settings on both 3DS.

The source is 3ds 1( not banned) or 3ds 2 (banned)?

6) Once the transfer is done, restore the NAND backup on 3DS 2, and also restore the Nintendo 3DS folder if needed.

So we dont restore the Nand of the 3ds 1( not banned) on the 3ds 1 ?

3DS 1 is banned, also known as source
3DS 2 is unbanned, known as target

You transfer FROM 3DS 1(Banned) to 3DS 2(unbanned)
Then restore a nand backup on 3DS 2

Sorry ,I just want to ask could the transfer be used for two n3ds of different region.

My japanese console is banned but I am in Europe now.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

That is precisely what I did (if I read properly) : Transfered from an unbanned O3DS XL to a banned N3DS. Did not unban me. Would you mean, linking an ID to the unbanned 3DS then transfering?

So,will the nnid of the banned one got unlinked though the transfer from a unbanned with another nnid.

I think it's worth to try,but I only got one console.

Maybe this is a way to save people's purchase ?

It wouldn't work, unless you change one of the two's region (granted it has a9lh).

During the transfer, the NNID of the source system is moved to the target, and then unlinked from the source, if that is what you wanted to know.

So I could just bought a new n3ds here and make it has a9lh,then I could change the region to do the transfer

is it possible?

and what I mean the nnid of the target system will it also unlinked and replaced by the nnid of the sources then the nnid of the banned system could be linked to another unbanned console and download what you purchased before.

Yup, you could buy a Europen console and then region change it, or region change the Japanese one. :)

Yes, the NNID will be moved from source to target, unless your source 3DS is banned. If it's banned, and the NNID is still linked, the system transfer will throw an error, rendering the transfer impossible.

So the requirement is only the NNID of the source?What about the NNID of target console if the target console is banned.

If there is no requirement, although the transfer from an unbanned console to an banned one could not save the target from banned,but at least the nnid of the banned one could got unlinked.

then you could just simply unbanned two console after the way above and linked the previous banned console with the previous banned NNID.

MAYBE this is possible?

If the target console is banned.. the transfer will also throw an error. They both need to be "unbanned" with this method, or not banned at all, for it to work. Though only the source would be unbanned if both are banned.

It was confirmed by a german contact to nintendo. Im too lazy to link the article. Look it up on google.
I'm well aware of the article. People have also been told by support that it's a temporary ban. People have also been told incorrect information about how the ban works, stating that game modification was required in order to access online features. It appears that at least some of the support staff know as much as the rest of us. It could still be a temporary ban, particularly when owners of legitimate cartridges have been banned.
