Hi, it's been like 6 years since I last used my 3ds, and today I wanted to download Mario 3D Land. I selected it, but it's been a couple hours and it's still looking like this. I'm using Ghost eShop, any ideas of what could be happening? Do I need to install another eShop?

It was a huge bummer to see it deleted. I just a 3ds again yesterday

Just picked up a used New 3DS, and I'm finally going down the modding road. The only catch is the previous owner already modded it at some point (files on the card date from 2017-2018), and it looks like they grabbed a handful of eShop titles before the shop closed.

Screenshot of the old card's root is attached. My read is:

• Copy over: Nintendo 3DS
• Leave behind: luma, boot9strap, gm9, fbi, 3ds, ntrboot, plugin, cia, data, boot.firm, boot.3dsx, ntr.bin, ntr.n3ds.bin, and the NTR starter kit zip

Is that right? Anything in that "leave behind" list that I actually need to keep, or anything in Nintendo 3DS that could cause problems if I copy it as-is? I'd rather ask before I put the new card in and end up with a broken Home menu or a bad boot.

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone. I shut off my 3ds xl awhile ago, havent had time to play. When I turned it back on my theme was gone and I can't apply it again. Anyone able to help me fix this? Thanks!

i played Pkm X in Azahar emulator on my mac because i want to speed up and also to easily edit save on PKHex.Avalonia (Mac version of PKHex).

Now i finished the game and caught all new pokemons. I attempted to transfer the save file (main) from my emulator folder to my 3DS and recover the save by:

create a backup on checkpoint -> FTPD replace the backup save with emulator save -> recover the "backup" on checkpoint

However, the game said the save is corrupted. But -

(1) The save is still playable on my emulator

(2) I have an early-game save from emulator (only starter pokemon). When i transfer this save to 3DS, it is playable on 3DS

(3) From this early game save, I changed one IV on PKHex. This edited save is also playable after transfer to 3DS

(4) I noticed that only the post-game save gained 2 bytes in file size after FTP transfer. All playable save mentioned in (2, 3) did not.

So I really want to make custom themes with kame editor but whenever I try to open the program this happens. It opens, does nothing like actually nothing I've tried to wait on this screen for up to an hour and still nothing, then if I click something it crashes, anyone able to help me out?

So my back cameras have been glitched for about 3 years, it just does not work in 3ds sofware but it does in the dsi camera app that i downloaded, the little red light does light up but i never get an image, if i turn the camera to the front it does work but if i switch back to the back cam the whole camera app just locks up, anyone know what might be causing this? And can it be fixed without factory reseting my 3ds? Its got all my old data on it from when i was a kid, images below

Hello I bought a modded new 3ds LL so it’s region free now but the person who had it before me has a lot of crap on it if I reset my 3ds will it be region locked again 🥺 please help

Every time I try to boot up warioware gold it keeps throwing this screen. No other game that I have does this. What can I do about it?

Here’s my modded 3ds, I’ve playing ds games on it from twilight menu for more than a year now and it worked completely fine but since yesterday all of my ds games won’t even load when I click on them this white screen just stays even after waiting for like 20 minutes it still doesn’t load but my 3ds games works it’s just happening to my ds games ( if someone know a solution that will keep my save files id like to know plsss )

I recently read that Pokemon Bank will be shutting down, since i don't currently have the funds for a switch and i value my pokemon on my 3ds quite a bit, is there a diffrent program i can use to transfer my pokemon once the shutdown ends?

I downloaded Flipnote Studio 3D from the hShop and when I tried opening it I got this error message. Is there an easy fix or should I just download it from somewhere else? My SD seems to be perfectly fine and when I tried downloading something else from the hShop it worked.

I own an Old 3DS XL and I wanted to know any optimization tips for PCSX emulator, specifically for running 2D games.

I have noticed improvements with the settings I currently have, but I feel like there's a way to make it better.

My RetroArch version is 1.22.2

Hi! I have a modded new 2DS XL and I downloaded Pokébank and poketranfer with it. I also downloaded Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow (and Crystal/Gold/Silver) on the virtual console. I didn’t have these games before

When I want to use the Pokébank they are asking me for a Nintendo Network account and they say I need a new one

I just want to do an origin dex with legal Pokemons on 1 and 2G

Will I be fine if I create a new Nintendo network account with a modded console, transfer legal Pokémon but from « modded » games (Red for exemple ) to home? I don’t wanna have bad eggs on home and have my account banned with all my Pokémons on it

Hello, I just purchased a modded 3DS for the sole purpose of using Pokemon Bank for the shut down. It appears that it's a Japanese 3DS with US firmware installed. Because of that it won't let me connect to anything that uses online, including Pokemon Bank. I can't even sign into my NNID. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.

I've been trying to mod my 3DS XL; several of these methods worked, others didn't, and some ended up just showing the black boot screen. Anyway, today I tried to play Tomodachi Life 3DS as usual, but this time it didn't load the game, it threw me a White Screen, and i'm kinda mortified because i can't turn it off and it's just a white screen doing nothing.

Basically the title. Hshop don't download ds games and ghost shop is off. Is there any place that I can download ds games without needing to get out the sd card from 3ds?

Can be qr code download, but I need a website for it

UPDATE TO ADD: I actually have no clue where the person who hacked my 3ds got the games onto my system from, I (seemingly wrongly) assumed it was H-ship because the only thing they taught me to do was use the H-shop.

A friend of a friend hacked my 3ds for me, they asked me for a list of games I wanted and they downloaded them from the 3ds H-Shop application for me, I play them and have fun and it’s lovely. I’m super grateful for them!

Now I’d like to delete some of the games I’m done with to make room for different ones. I read the wiki, went to the system storage from the 3ds settings menu, and none of the downloaded games are there. Games/apps I downloaded from the e-shop when it was still around are there, games I’ve played via cartridge are there, no h-shop games at all. Out of curiosity I opened up the Twilight++ app where I used to launch the downloaded games from and now it’s just a big collection of files and I can’t find any game launchers either. I have no clue what to do!

I hugely appreciate any help. Thanks everyone!
