iirc tomodaci life saves to the consoles SD card, not the cart, so its probably the SPI save chip dead in the cart

im not too sure how the sky3ds handles CARD2 games, but i know with the gateway 3DS if the SPI chip died, only card2 games would work (pokemon X/Y/OR/AS/S/M, animal crossing and a few others) as the cart used a different method for saving with those games

Thanks for your reply! That might actually explain it.
Assuming there isn't since i think you would have added it, but is there any way i could repair it?
Do you know any other games that save to SD? I'd like to check to make sure.

No, that was fantasy life (and another one) that only uses extdata - tomodachi is a fairly standard card2 game :)
ahhh your right, i knew tomodachi life wasn't one of the "standard" games, i got it mixed up with fantasy life XD, so yeah with any luck at least card2 games will be playable

I believe this actually is the problem. I've found a file for Fantasy Life and yes, this one is working! First one in a very long time.

Thank you all so much for thinking with me, now i at least know i should stop trying to "reapair" the damn thing. And i will be trying that game lol.
