2DS Data Transfer

2DS Data Transfer - From above of orange usb to micro usb cable twisted into ring placed on black board

I, up until last week, owned a 2DS and had SSB4 as a download. However, the screen is damaged to the point of no functioning image. I initially thought that just popping the SD card into my new unused 2DS would be all I needed to do. That failed. I just read that data transfer is used to get it over, so I ask this- Is there anything that could impede data transfer? I am using the receiving 2DS, and using noise as a guide, to verify the buttons I'm tapping. I have gotten to the "Send" and "Receive" on each, but they're not transferring. I have not gotten a pop-up for number of transfers remaining, so if that's a factor, then this entire problem grows exponentially harder.

I will most likely be unable to monitor this actively, but will check every evening if anyone has thoughts and needs more information. That shouldn't be a problem, as other that SSB4, there's nothing taking up space, and the new 2DS was opened an hour before the writing of this.

Thank you for any input you can provide P.S. Don't let a perfectly good system get stepped on.



Best Answer

You need to contact the Nintendo customer services and request that your Nintendo network profile be transferred to the new system. They will walk you through the process, and it will work. I did the same thing not to long ago.

Can you transfer data from one 2DS to another?

It's possible to transfer data from an original Nintendo 2DS to a New 3DS XL, but it's not possible to move data from a New model to an original 3DS or 2DS. Transferring data between a 3DS and a 2DS is also possible, as is performing a transfer between two New models.

Can you transfer games from 2DS to switch?

Note: It is not possible to do any transfers between our handheld and console platforms, in any combination. Nor is it possible to go chronologically backwards in terms of system generations, such as transferring data from a Wii U to a Wii, or going from a Nintendo 3DS to a Nintendo DSi.

Can you transfer SD Card from 2DS to 3DS?

You can save software to another SD Card, but cannot later combine the contents of multiple SD Cards. In order to transfer data, you will need a computer and a commercially available SD Card reader / writer and should transfer the entire \u201cNintendo 3DS\u201d folder to the target SD Card.
