Wireless Transfer (Limited Data)
Use this method when the microSD card in the target system does not have
enough free space available. All data except Nintendo 3DS download soft-
ware will be transferred to the microSD card. After performing the transfer, any purchased downloadable software can be
redownloaded at no extra cost from Nintendo eShop.
•
Save data will be restored once you start the software after redownloading it.
Copy via PC
With this method, data on an SD card will not be transferred automatically
to the microSD card in the target system. Once the system transfer has
been completed, use a computer to copy all the data from the SD card to the microSD card. After the data has been copied, insert
the microSD card in the target system.
•
If you have been using a microSD card with an SD card adapter in the source system, there's no need to use a computer to copy
the data. Simply insert the microSD card into the target system once the system transfer is complete.
Copying data to the microSD card
When copying data from an SD card to a microSD card,
use the SD card slot on your PC or a commercially available
microSD card reader/writer and copy all the data on
the SD card to the microSD card. (You should copy the
"Nintendo 3DS" folder in its entirety.)

from the SD card over. (If the data on the target microSD
card is important to you, make a copy of it elsewhere, for
example, on your PC.)
•
Copy the "Nintendo 3DS" folder to the top level of the microSD card. (In other words, do not place it within another folder.)
•
The "Nintendo 3DS" folder contains data for downloadable software and associated save data. It does not contain photo data.
•
Do not attempt to adjust the data, move or delete the files, or change any file names within the "Nintendo 3DS" folder.
•
Please also read and take note of the copying precautions on p. 50.
If you've used multiple SD cards with the source system...
You can only transfer the data from one SD card when using the "Wireless Transfer (All Data)" or "Wireless Transfer (Limited Data)"
methods. Data from other SD cards should be copied to different microSD cards after the transfer, using the "Copy via PC" method.
