HI! So here's what happened : My XL went dead but I believe the problem is with the top screen cables being damaged. I was able to salvage an old 3ds from one of my friends and hacked it (probably not relevant but the charging port is busted, so I use the dead one to charge it's battery).

I would really like to get my mons back from my digital copy of Alpha Sapphire (150+ hours of playtime...ugh) if i buy another one. Is there a way to get them back if I switch my nintendo ID to another ds or can I replicate them by reading the save file ?

TL,DR Heres what I have at my disposal:

  • pokemon sun
  • an old hacked 3ds
  • busted 3ds XL .......X(
  • busted 3ds' XL memory card * with digital copy of alpha sapphire and other saves
  • legit pokebank account
Any idea on what's my best options here to get my save files or mons back ? I would really appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Jane

You will have to have backed up the save beforehand. If you don't know how to use JKSM or SaveDataFiler then I'd assume you never backed up the save.

Edit: you could do a motherboard swap into a working 3DS XL so it will turn on and you can back up the save.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
