I formatted the 64GB card as FAT32 but it doesn't work when I insert it jnto the 3DS, it just doesn't detect it. Is it because it's 64GB and I have to do some extra steps? I'm doing it on Chrome OS so I don't know if it's a problem with the built in formatter or what.

i think its that the 3ds doesnt like the format that any apple computer does. Try using guiformat for it

I understand some cards are sometimes set up with additional, tiny partitions that will have to be wiped out.

Try using this tool. https://github.com/d0k3/EmuNAND9/releases It will format everything on the sd card but the 3ds will format it so it works with 16GB+ and fat32.
Wouldn't it be easier just to use godmode9? That is usually what is recommended when other methods fail.

I didn't know GM9 had that function.... Is it a script or built in?
