You can use a SD card adapter so just buy a micro SD to futureproof yourself, the new 3DS will only take in micro SD as well if you change to it in the future.


Yeah, but the problem there is that when the MicroSD is used in an SD adapter, the speed DROPS, as it has to re-route through another connection. The Golden Rule of computers is that the shorter the distance, the better it works.

Which is usually why I frown upon adapters, daisy chains, and long USB cords. I've actually solved problems removing those issues. I've had issues where the drive wouldn't read with a long USB cord, where drives were having slowdown on daisy chains, and where SD cards were fast by themselves, but slower in the adapter.

Been repairing and tech supporting for over ten years. You'd be amazed what you run into

Best I can tell you is get a SD card for EmuNAND if you're using it on a 3DS and a MicroSD card if using on a N3DS.

Also, don't worry about future proofing as prices ALWAYS go down on storage. That 64GB card you'd pay $60 for now, will be only $40 six months from now. As storage goes up, prices drop.

I remember paying $150 for a 2TB drive last year. This year, I only paid $89 for it.

Nice point. I'm going to buy a normal SD. Thanks

And also remember as I added to my post. Don't worry about future proofing as by the time you're ready to get a MicroSD, the price will have dropped by then. They always do.

I only get Sandisk ones. That's why. I pay for the best brand. You know what they say, you get what you pay for. I've bough PNY's and Kingston's only for them to fail on me after a while.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Nah the air can do that
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Ask @x65943 he's trained for that stuff
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Kissing random dudes choking in celery? Really? Need to study for that?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Yes it requires a degree
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    If I die, tell my momma I won't be carrying Baby Jesus this christmas :sad::cry:
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Smear campaigns are in The political section now?

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It literally turns it on.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Yeah power supplies are filthy perverts
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    @Psionic Roshambo has a new friend
