Please don't berate me on "why would you want a 400gb card?" I have my reasons, and this thread is not here to debate those (it's been done plenty in other threads like this), it's to figure out why my card isn't working. I'd heard that cards up to 400gb had been tested and should technically work in a 3DS as long as they're formatted correctly, but mine isn't being read.
I purchased a SanDisk Ultra 400GB SDXC card, used MiniTool to format it to FAT32 and used 32kb cluster size. From what I'd read, that should have been all I needed to get the card to work. However, my 3DS keeps saying "There is no microSD card inserted" when I put it into the system.
I thought it might be the system's card reader, but I can insert a 32GB card that I had lying around that was also formatted for FAT32 and the 3DS reads it just fine.
Thought perhaps it might be the card, but obviously my computer can read it just fine too, else I wouldn't have been able to format it.
For reasons unknown to me, my 3DS is just refusing to read it, and I'm unsure as to why. I even tried copying the 3DS files from the 32GB card over to see if it needed help initializing the card, but that was not the case.
