S.C.G Posted January 26 Posted January 26 13 minutes ago, WackerJr said: That's a really good point! Do we know if it can be performed by selecting the option using just the d-pad and buttons? (it's been a while since I did it) I seem to be able to use the d-pad to move between apps, as whatever the cursor should be on shows up on the top screen. If I have to type anything though then I fear I might be in a bit of pickle! (to put it nicely!) I just did a quick search, apparently Nintendo can transfer between two 3DS consoles from their end, they just need to know both serial numbers of each console, and the NNID... though, that was presumably before they shut everything down. 1

The back end is still live, but it's essentially up to Nintendo if they wanted to so do. It's a shame they have the capability of making it easy for people to do but choose not to. They could even transfer from their end with the Wii. 2

My advice would be to get a YouTube video of someone doing the process and use that as a reference. 2
WackerJr Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Quick update and it sounds as though Nintendo are coming through for me! The wording on their repair quote is: ”Diagnosis: Lower Screen has defective image - Out of Warranty. Spare Parts: Product is replaced - KTR ASSY HW SWAP WHITE EUR - Quantity: 1” So they’re charging me £79 for it, but sounds as though they swapping either part of or the whole system 🤞 (unless of course I’ve read that completely wrong and I’m just giving them money….) 1 2

According to a quick search, I found this Reddit post which seems to imply that you'll be receiving a refurbished system, so I don't know if that means you'll be able to keep the data or not... https://www.reddit.com/r/3DS/comments/myuatx/does_anyone_know_what_this_means/?rdt=62873 But who knows, maybe they found some ways to transfer either all or some of the data to the refurbished console?
