I don't think it is that terrible. Save backup could be done by Checkpoint. I think OT could install Checkpoint to backup before do formating. Eshop apps could be redownload. Is there anything could be lose?
There's the issue the system format doesn't necessary fix the not letting you update the latest firmware. It's also a pain in the ass for those who pirated their games, DLCs, updates, DSiWare, or made lots of custom VC injections having to go through the hassle of reinstalling everything again.
If you want to achieve the same effect as a real Format System Memory without none of the drawbacks,
- GodMode9 → [1:] SYSNAND CTRNAND → hold (R)-shoulder and press (X) on the data folder. Temporarily rename this to data2.
- Press (START) to exit GodMode9. You'll be greeted with the new user introduction. Make a dummy profile.
- Try updating the 3DS firmware in System Settings. If the update goes through, great.
- This probably won't work depending where the issue lies like if you have fake system title tickets installed or previous failed update that resulted in frakenfirm.
- Go back to GodMode9. Press (X) to delete the dummy data folder. Rename data2 back to data.
- You should retain your NNID, Friends List, Activity Log, and all your games + saves.

Anybody here have a Xbox series S and a series X, is the performance difference noticeable? Not worried about 4k. I have a series X but not a series S and was curious. (Reason- I was thinking of buying a series S for a second tv, for when grandkids come over, to keep them off my X) -
