I recently decided I wanted to delve deeper into one of my favorite games on the 3DS: Yo-kai Watch. Question is, how would I go about even extracting the files in the CIA file and just being able to access all of the game's contents. Obviously a bit of a broad question but if there's a 3DS rom hacking guide by any chance I'd owe you the world. Cheers!

Heyy I know this post is very old but still I felt like replying since I'm making a (translation) romhack for Yo-kai Watch. The method I found works best for accessing the games contents is downloading a .3ds rom and opening it with Kuriimu2, since the standard romhacking method of decrypting a .3ds/cia file doesn't seem to work properly on Yo-kai Watch and doesn't decrypt all the game's textures/models/text.
