What is the medium size of 3DS roms ? Because 64 seems huge...

Ok. Thanks! The link u provided says it supports exfat. What if the micro sd is off brand? Will it still be useful?

 

[Cyan]

off brand?
you mean if you just bought it? it's usually formated in FAT32 by default.

I have noticed today mine had crashed/froze playing Tom. Life after a few hours since the new 2.3b update, I was putting a scan mii in off a website and it crashed/froze on me, I had to reset my 3DS. I wandering if it is an issue with the new update, maybe should report it to GW let them know???

En français SANS MARQUE off brand

 

[planetarian]

I use an exfat 64GB in mine.

Since you mentioned off-brand SD cards, a word of warning:
Most, if not all, of the really cheap ones on ebay are fake. They show up as 64+ GB but are usually much much smaller and highly unreliable. Use an SD tester to verify your card is legit.

thanks
even if it's off brand you can format it the way you want.
just know that some manufacturer are selling fake cards (wrong capacity).

It's better to buy a brand one on reliable shops.

I second that man! Go to your local PC World and get one. Media can be a funny item to purchase if its not made 100% properly.

Why buy a Gateway when you can go to *snip*! Its FREE! (lol)

even if its a joke that will just cause noobs to get all excited......personally i cba with the "is it real" posts

Since I switched to using my 64GB one, I've noticed it takes twice as long to copy files onto as my old 32GB card did. Is this normal or could it be faulty? Both are class 10. The 64gb one is Kingston and I'm not sure about the other as it doesn't say (got it from PC World).
