Is it safe to use a 3DS rom trimming tool in conjunction with Sky3DS? Could it make some games unplayable? Is there a chance it could corrupt existing save data? If it is totally safe, which trimming tool would you recommend? Thanks

ROM trimming is completly safe.


BUT
CARD2 games like Pokémon X&Y ORAS, Animal crossing and Smash Bros will lose the possability to save your game. Because this game saves on the rom itself instead of a .sav file

For all the other roms it's okay. (they make seperate .sav files)

Thank you. It's annoying Sky3DS doesn't include a trimmer as I can't access the ROMs in any other way apart from through their Disk Writer, I may be a little stuck...

    I think most of today's e-cigs are undervolted and have safeties built in, back when they were first starting it was Wild West out there, just a bunch of crap imported in bulk from China that tended to explode at the drop of a hat.

    People all have a hardon for Li-poly batteries that require so much additional electronics and equipment to charge, and even then they use fireproof bags to charge and store them in because they tend to go boom for no reason.

    @Veho,
    squishy lipos and knowing how to use standalone custom chargers, is NOT for your average Nerf herder brain to comprehend. Coming from 10th scale RCs - we know how to work em.
