Format 64GB or bigger with Guiformat to FAT32 (assuming you are using Microsoft Windows – other OS will offer formatting to FAT32 with their own tools).

There is no real limit for SD size. In theory 2TB are usable on MBR partition table with 512 Byte sectors.
For 128GB or bigger you can use 64KB cluster size to speed up load time when turning on. Huge SDs might lead to some waiting time.

Remember the overall 300 title limit. You can work around this with multiple SDs as well as 3DSBank.

Good luck and have fun!

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
