Manicm Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 OK, will just do that. Was only really worried about losing my Zelda download Cheers! I forgot to add, I added my micro sd 32gb to my old 3ds xl about a month ago and downloaded all the games I wanted at the time. Did the system transfer then took an hour to find a bloody screwdriver!! then put my 3ds xl micro sd into my new 3ds, hope that helps. One thing I keep doing is forgetting my Nintendo passwords as I have 3, one for the stars thing, one for buying stuff, and another for e-shop its stupid Nintendo need to unionise all these access codes!

radiofloyd Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Kirby and the Rainbow Curse reviews: Destructoid - 9 Polygon - 8.5 IGN - 8 Game Informer - 7.75 Gamespot - 5 You know this is a Wii U game right? Got confused. A mod can delete it if they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sambob Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Wait Wait whoa whoa whoa. The 3ds xenoblade chronicles is ONLY compatible with the New 3ds? That is bullshit if so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikman Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Is that a joke? If someone within a gaming community really didn't know that then what hope do the general public have?! Seen all the older 3DS's being sold a 'newest model' on ebay? That's gonna stump a ton of people too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Wait Wait whoa whoa whoa. The 3ds xenoblade chronicles is ONLY compatible with the New 3ds? That is bullshit if so. Well they're not gating it off to be total cunts. The New 3DS has more RAM and it just wouldn't run on an old one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craymen Edge Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 They did say it was new 3DS only when they revealed it last year. They haven't exactly been hiding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambob Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 But it's certainly treading the line. Its more game boy colour than a totally new handheld, but then its getting exclusive content. They do Shit like release the 3ds but then have the next pokemon made for the old model, then sneak out a sort of new 3ds and almost immediately have an exclusive. I also noticed that Tesco seem to be removing Nintendo stuff from its stores, my local only had Mario party 9... As for the gating off thing. They didn't accidentally make xenoblade chronicles with more RAM requirements, it must have been a deliberate choice to make it only for the new 3ds so I would probably call that gating off.

The reason they've given is the CPU in the 3DS is just not good enough. FWIW, the new 3DS has double the number of CPU cores, it's faster, and has double the RAM. I'm sure they hope Xenoblade will lead people to upgrade. But I think the people who know about and are interested in Xenoblade are the same people who buy every new Nintendo hardware at launch anyway.

Sambob Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Its just a bit apple like is all, I didnt like it when they did it, and I dont like it when Nintendo do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikman Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I gotta go back to the system transfer thing as I don't get it and I don't want to screw it up. Sorry to ask again. I have old system with 4GB card (nearly full) New 3DS XL (Zelda pre-installed) with 4GB card A 32GB card that I plan to use in the new system I planned to use the System Transfer tool to just move everything from old to new - but as Zelda is pre-installed there won't be room on the 4GB card right? - Question one is - what do I do here? Question two is, do I move everything to the new system using 4GB - 4GB cards and then use a PC to copy it all from 4GB to the 32GB card once I'm up and running? EDIT: I think I get it, no worries http://uk.ign.com/wikis/nintendo-3ds/3DS_to_New_3DS_or_3DS_XL_System_Transfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 The best way to do it is to take the 4gb out of your 3DS and put it in a PC. Copy the 2 folders in it to another folder and then across to then micro and then put the micro in the n3DS using an adapter. Doing it this way will take the transfer right down to 20 minutes or there abouts. Then it's just a case of skipping the transfer SD contents by putting the micro in the n3DS.

Pikman Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Oh OK - so I can do a system transfer without SD and then just copy the data from 4GB to 32GB and done?! Nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 No. The micro needs to be inside the host system when you transfer afaik. You need to transfer the 4gb to the 32gb on PC. Then you put the 32gb in the host system, transfer and then when prompted take the micro out of the host system and install it in the new system.

Pikman Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I'm confused again I think I'm going to do this. Put 32GB card into new 3DS and then just use the transfer tool. See what happens... Done...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Make sure both are fully charged then And it might not take as long as it took me. I've got a lot of digital games on my 3ds, if you haven't it might not take that long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikman Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 That's cool, thanks! Just need my Goddam 32GB card to show up now. Flubit so who know's where it's coming from. So far I've waited a week, ordered it before my 3DS which arrived today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikman Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Aye, thanks. Will let you know how it goes, awaiting my micro SD. Kinda wish I'd just used Amazon now, would have been here ages ago. All for the sake of £2... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
