So I formatted EmuNAND on my 3DS so that I could update it to 9.4 and then I downgraded to 4.5 after that. Before doing it, it said that it would delete everything so I just backed up my 3DS SD card. Well then after formatting I put everything back on and nothing came back on the 3DS menu. Why is this??

I had Animal Crossing downloaded and I don't really want to lose that save so I guess what I'm really asking is how do I get the save file back? I already re-downloaded it (the game).

If you backed up your nand (you should have), restore that as well to get your games back (but it will put you back on 9.2 or where ever you were)

Basically you:
1. Backup SysNAND to SD CARD
2. Format EmuNAND
3. Copy stuff back to SD
4. Remove big SD-card from the device/format SysNAND (for unlinking)

Right?

______
Try using Folder Renaming trick (I posted it in my latest thread).

[Question] System Transfer from emuNAND to SysNAND

Just if anyone looks for it.

I figured I could do this but I want the 4.5. Is there a way to maybe extract the save or somehow inject that save from the SD backup I have?

When you transfer stuff back to your SD card make sure you delete the "Nintendo 3ds" folder before copying the old one back. That's what I had to do and it worked

    @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
