Hello :)
I have an odd problem with Pokemon Alpha Sapphire. The game is installed and updated, I played it, saved it ingame and now I want to switch the saves, but the game is the only one not showing up in the SD/CIA List.
Any ideas?

So my aim is to transfer all my system data from my New3ds to my standard 3DS. When I select it through the homebrew launcher (via browserhax) the bottom screen just flashes different colours and stays on yellow, why is this? Also, it asks me to select a game before launching which confuses me as I'm trying to transfer my system data. Help would be appreciated >_<

What system data are you trying to move? You do know this is for save game data and not system data?

Sorry, I meant the save data for all downloaded games (Nintendo Badge Arcade etc) + the actual games themselves if possible
I don't think you can retrieve the data from the Badge Arcade with this as it's tied to your NNID. And you can't dump the actual games with this, nor can you on stock 11.0. You'll have to find a way to get the games again.

I'm 90% sure that you can't use this with Nintendo Badge Arcade as it doesn't have save game data, I might be wrong but the data is tied to your Nintendo account.

Sorry guys, I've got it working now, must have been the games I tried it with initially. So with Nintendo Badge Arcade for example, I can export the ExtData, but not the save. I'm guessing I need to export both for all games I want to backup?

*EDIT* I confirmed on the phone to Nintendo that the Badge Arcade data will be lost if I transfer my NNID from my New 3ds to my old one. I really would like to save my data if possible as I've played it daily since release T_T

Ideally I'm looking for a program to clone as much of my SD card (ie downloaded games + data) as possible and then recreate that on my old 3DS - is there a more suitable tool?

*EDIT 2* A lot of games are just crashing/soft-locking the system - eg Pokemon Yellow, BoxBoy - if I select one of them when trying to launch JK, the screen just gets stuck on a solid colour (ie doesn't fully load)

You'd want to backup both if the game had any extra data.

But I'm pretty sure what you're asking for is impossible because there's no way your old 3DS would recognize the folder that's in the Nintendo 3DS folder that corresponds to your N3DS without a system transfer, which is impossible to do. There's just no way.

Dammit, I was really excited to get the capture card installed in my old 3DS, but half my titles are downloaded so I'm screwed if I don't want to start from scratch on literally all of them T_T

You can still extract the save and extra data from them. Try using this to fix the yellow screen issue: https://github.com/ihaveamac/9.6-dbgen-xmls. Instructions are under "Using the XMLs."

Thanks, I appreciate your help, I can open the manager for all the title's I have tried thus far, but the app just doesn't want to play ball with the majority of my games, displaying the 'error opening save archive' message :( Pullblox/Fallblox/Dillon's Rolling Western to name a few.

    @Xdqwerty can we discuss chrono trigger
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @Xdqwerty I like how the game had the middle ages 1000AD, the dark ages 600AD.It was great seeing the post robot apocalypse 2300 like Terminator and enter the matrix. some of mad max and fallout. 2300ad though it could had used more elements instead of just a generic ai uprising. It was a great idea for their judgement day to be 1999 Y2K.

    -great additions if they would have made an expansion or dlc in my opinion would be finding out humans trapped in a matrix -

    a follower having a cyborg character living tissue over metal endoskelleton like terminator, and the synths from fallout
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    4After Zeal fell it would have been good to see more ancient eras. Perhaps Sumeria based in one area, then Egypt based in another area, Greek based in another area, then roman based in another area before the middle ages.---------

    ----between 1000ad and 1999 is a big gap they should have had the age of revolution like the american and French Revolution

    then the cowboyy era in one area of map and the Industrial revolution/age of enlightmentthen a ww1 and ww2 and a cold war era
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    they could have added 75,000 bc like assassins creed. zeal was already establish in 12, 000 bc , soething before the kindom rose
