Precautions regarding System Transfers
After the transfer, all of the data on the source system is deleted.
Target system
Source system
Data in system memory is overwritten
Data in system memory is erased
• Data saved to the system memory of the target system (such as save data for built-in software) is all erased before the
data from the source console is written.
If you have any photo or audio data saved in the system memory of the target
system, copy it to the microSD card before running the System Transfer.
Downloadable Software
• You will no longer be able to use the downloadable software and save data stored in the microSD card that was used in
the target system.
(You can re-download software titles from Nintendo eShop.)
• If you perform a System Transfer between systems that have the same downloadable software, the Account Activity for
the same software on the target system is erased, and the save data will no longer be usable either.
The software and
save data from the source system will become playable on the target system.
If you used Option 2, “Low-Capacity microSD Card Transfer” to transfer data from a
Nintendo 3DS/3DS XL to the New Nintendo 2DS XL:
You can check the transferred save data from the Data Management screen. You can also
select save data from the Data Management screen and delete it.
