So I have my old 3DS's sd card contents but don't have the ability to dump saves with something like checkpoint because that 3DS is bricked, is there some way I can restore saves using checkpoint on another 3DS with just the sd card files that I have from my old 3DS?

@RyuShinobi500 I don't think that will work, save files are encrypted per console which is why we need tools like check, to decrypt them and re-encrypt for the console they get restored on. Also you could get those files by plugging the SD card into a computer?

@Treeko you may be able to do something if you have a NAND backup of the bricked console or the moveable.sed, which will allow you to decrypt the contents of the SD card.

    I'm all for immigration, I just wish people integrated properly, like what the chinese and previous waves of immigration did. The indians and arabs coming over just seem to want to make things as they were in their own countries.

    Still tho, I remember visiting Tijuana 15 or so years ago while in California, and the Peso was like 5 to 1, ($0.20). It has dropped significantly.
