Hacking [Question] Hacking my 2ds will delete saved data?

[Pares]

I am planning on hacking my 2ds using the frogminer method and I would like to know if the saved data of my pre-installed games (Mario Kart 7) will be deleted in the process because I have read in the 3ds hack guide that "This process will overwrite your game’s save file!". Should I use ntrboot instead or are my saves safe?

No, all of your saves will be safe, only the saves for steel diver and flipnote are modified.

Alright, thanks!

Flipnote? No Flipnote saves get modified

I only care about the Mario Kart 7 save anyway

Will modding a 2DS get you banned? (I don't mean hacking pirated games on the freeshop, I just mean modding Mario Kart 7 with CTGP)

It's a bit of a chance, but not nearly as certain and widespread as Switch modding. Personally, I've modded 3 3DS consoles, all of which have online access and none have been banned, but people have been banned occasionally.
