Hi all,

I found this conversion for 3DS block file size:

128kb = 1 block
1mb = 8 blocks
1gb = 8,192 blocks

Helpful Equations:
Blocks10248 = GB
Blocks8 = MB
Blocks128 = KB
GBx1024x8 = Blocks
MBx8 = Blocks
KB128 = Blocks

I'm making the assumption this is accurate, so that said if my 3DS says I have 547,111 free blocks then it would mean I have:

547111 / 8192 = 66.79 GB of free space on my SD card?

    Dont know anyone wants those smaller ones. Most are after larger sizes and the kinda top of the line models

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
