Hi @All

I was about to hack my New 3DS XL and it was running good until a certain point: Section III - System Transfer.

I don't know what I did wrong but something went wrong while transferring system data from Old 3DS XL to New 3DS XL. It didn't transfer the DSiWare save.

I wanted to try the whole process again but it looks like I need to buy the exploit game I bought (SUDOKU) again on the source 3DS XL since it already transferred the ID. Is that really true? If yes that would be a shame.

In general I find this method really hard.

I also read something I need to wait 7 days because of a Nintendo restriction. Is that really true? Is there any way Indin't need to buy the game again?

Thanks for your help :)

I have the same issue as xfighter11. The system transferred over fine...but no SUDOKU so i was not able to exploit the target DS. Any advice would be great as I am now waiting the 7 day time out to try again.

You don't have to buy it again or wait 7 days (unless this fails, but it'll only fail if you made a mistake in the original process). Restore the pre-transfer NAND backup on the source, and go to System Settings -> Data Management -> DSiWare. Move the game to SD. Put this SD in the target console (or: delete the Nintendo 3DS folder then paste in the one from the source), go to System Settings -> Data Management ->DSiWare again and move the game to system memory. It should all work now.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Too bad Excite Truck wasn't multi player :(

    Loved that game lol
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, sorry for the stupid suggestion I had in that thread
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
