Well, since you have a modded 2DS running Luma 12 (you should probably update that btw, latest Luma version is 13.0.2) the first thing I would do is set up CFW on the Target System (the New 3DS. Don't get a New 2DS, the battery isn't replaceable and the speaker is where your palms would probably rest as you hold it. Only good thing about it is the SD card is accessible without having to get a screwdriver, but even then, just use FTP or something) before performing the transfer.I was wondering just in case if I ever had to transfer to a new 3DS/2DS.
Actually, the one thing you shouldn't do is the "wireless" system transfer, as that will only transfer titles installed through the eShop. But even if you only had eShop titles installed, you wouldn't want to use that option; it is very slow.Just follow that, BUT when asked what you want to do for transferring data on the SD card, you can use any option
Gee, I can't recall reading about that before. That's a big drawback.Don't get a New 2DS, the battery isn't replaceable
It is replaceable – but not intended to be done by end users: Triwing screws (Nintendo equivalent of a "Keep Out!"-sign), hard to open case compared to other DS with simple battery cover.Gee, I can't recall reading about that before. That's a big drawback.
Yeah, by "non-replacable" I meant "not meant to be replaced".. Odd that it's a New XL system running on an O3DS battery though. What the fuck?It is replaceable – but not intended to be done by end users: Triwing screws (Nintendo equivalent of a "Keep Out!"-sign), hard to open case compared to other DS with simple battery cover.
On top of this idiots
may break off the notch of the volume slider in the process of case opening. So be careful.
Battery is standard CTR-003 which will probably be around quite some time as the Switch Pro Controller has the same type.
All in all harder than on other DS consoles, but a lot easier than on most current phones.
Really? That's weird.Odd that it's a New XL system running on an O3DS battery though. What the f**k?
I wasn't really talking about the New variants, but I guess them too. lolthe New 3DS. Don't get a New 2DS
Ah. I thought you DID mean the new variants... After all you did say new.Really? That's weird.

Sorry for the confusion.Ah. I thought you DID mean the new variants... After all you did say new.
Does this mean everything? I mean savefiles in particular?Well, since you have a modded 2DS running Luma 12 (you should probably update that btw, latest Luma version is 13.0.2) the first thing I would do is set up CFW on the Target System (the New 3DS. Don't get a New 2DS, the battery isn't replaceable and the speaker is where your palms would probably rest as you hold it.

Basically, the process would go like this, once BOTH SYSTEMS are running custom firmware, in this case Luma via B9S.

Just follow that, BUT when asked what you want to do for transferring data on the SD card, you can use any option, but what I would recommend is either a PC-Based Transfer (if the SD card in your 2DS is a full-size one which won't fit in the new system) or the same option (PC-Based Transfer) if the SD card in your Nintendo 2DS is just a MicroSD card with an adapter; as that WILL fit in the target system.
If i do this and use faketik, will it transfer savefiles too?The standard System Transfer tool still works just like it does on a stock system, but only titles officially installed through the eShop will transfer. Anything installed via FBI will only be available if you install CFW on the "target" system and run Faketik. This is documented at https://3ds.hacks.guide/faq#post-installation-faq .
So, it doesn't matter if you install CFW before or after the System Transfer. The System Transfer actually transfers the encryption key, so if you're using a CFW installation method that requires you to brute-force your movable.sed, you can skip that step if you do the System Transfer first – but some methods (like super-skaterhax) don't require that step, and it's not really a big deal if you have to do it anyway.

Why would you expect everything else to transfer but not save data..?If i do this and use faketik, will it transfer savefiles too?
All saves will transfer regardless of if they have fake tickets or not. Faketik is just needed to make the games show up againDoes this mean everything? I mean savefiles in particular?

As in DSiWare? Or forwarders for DS games?Hey guys just did the system transfer and faketik thing, but none of my DS games show up on the new console, everything else does. What have i done wrong?
I have not bought them on the eshop if that makes them DSiware! It's all pirated stuffAs in DSiWare? Or forwarders for DS games?
DSiWare titles typically have an animated icon. If it's those, then I don't get how the transfer wouldn't have copied them over (and why faketik wouldn't have made them reappear)I have not bought them on the eshop if that makes them DSiware! It's all pirated stuff
I did the sysNAND backup thing on the source console after transfer, and they are still on that one, so it's not like i completely lost my games and saves, so not the end of the world. But i would ofcourse like to have them on my new consoleDSiWare titles typically have an animated icon.
