My 2DS froze while installing a cia with boop so I shut down the system and now there's less free space available even though the installation failed. I have searched for the folder named after the title id for the game but I haven't found it either. Any solution?

Start godmode9 and go to sysnand sd. Press the R and A buttons together and select search for titles. Find the failed install and press the A button. Now select open containing folder and delete everything in it. Problem should now be solved.
Just reinstall it, if it properly installs it will overwrite any existing files. But if you don't want to do that (or can't), make sure the title ID is correct, the files should be there even if the installation failed.
Ticket has nothing to do with the folder, it's not even in the same directory (folder is in the "titles" folder under "4000" while ticket is inside the titles.db in the SysNAND). You are almost definitely just looking at the wrong folder or folder ID. If you really can't find it, reinstalling the CIA automatically deletes the old files, wherever they may be.
Ok so I sucessfully reinstalled the game (by deleting 500mb of themes) but the extra space is still being occupied by this 'hidden' folder. I guess this confirms the game had installed somewhere else if not it would have overwritten ifself as you guys mentioned.
The extra space should have gotten overwritten, games don't install in random directories, you did something wrong or used different region CIAs with different IDs so they installed in different folders!

One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better. -

I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs

I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G. -

Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
