Section I - Determine if your SD card is physically faulty.
  1. Copy everything off the SD card to a computer.
  2. Quadruple reformat.
  3. Full Write + Verify the empty card in H2testw. Do not skip.
  4. If the results comes back clean, delete the *.h2w test files.
    • :!: A reported error means the hardware failed card will need to be replaced. Go back to step 1 with the replacement SD card.
  5. Copy everything back to the SD card.

Section II - Check if the game title has data corruption.

6. GodMode9 → [A:] SYSNAND SD/title → hold (R)-shoulder and press (A) on 00040000Search for titles. A list of games should appear.
7. 0004000000030700 MARIO KART 7 (CTR-P-AMKP) (E).tmd → press (A) → TMD file options...Verify file.
If the result states Verification success, proceed no further. Stop here. You will have to check for other things.

If the result states Verification failed, you will need to reinstall the game's CIA. Continue with the below step 8.

8. Backup the MK7's save + extdata with Checkpoint or JKSM.
9. Reinstall a fresh CIA copy of MK7 with FBI.
  • :!: WARNING: Installing the game CIA (00040000) will overwrite and delete the save.
10. Restore the save + extdata with save manager of choice from step 8.​

Thank you, it was the game somehow corrupted, at the end I just re-downloaded from the eShop since repairing. Still curious to know what got corrupted in game files.

Thank you, it was the game somehow corrupted because even the eShop failed to reapair(Yes, it's a legit game) and system settings gave error when deleting save file. Reinstalling fixed. Still curious to know what got corrupted.

Do you have a 64 GB or bigger SD card, and do you use TWiLight Menu?
Edit - If you want to know what other titles within Nintendo 3DS folder are bad, see this thread.
