Transferring between systems in the Nintendo 3DS family
When you use System Transfer between these systems, various data is transferred including your save data for built-in applications, Nintendo eShop balance, and the account activity record of downloaded applications.
NOTE: Data is transferred as a single package. You cannot select specific items of data or software to transfer.
Nintendo 
3DS family of  systems Nintendo 
3DS family of 
systems
Data transfer
You can transfer the following data during a single system transfer:
Nintendo DS settings
Built-in software 
save data
DSiWare
Rights to use data 
saved on the SD Card
Nintendo eShop 
balance
 
 
Nintendo Network ID The Internet Settings and Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ID used by Nintendo DS software are transferred.
Nintendo 3DS Camera photos and Nintendo 3DS Sound audio files that are saved in System Memory 
are transferred, along with Mii data from Mii Maker and other save data for built-in software.
DSiWare that is saved in System Memory and its save data.
The rights to use data saved on the SD Card (including downloadable content, downloadable 
software and associated save data, and other data) are transferred. If you take the SD Card from the 
original system and insert it in the system you transferred to, you can use this data.
Your Nintendo eShop balance and account activity is transferred. The account activity and eShop 
balance from both systems will be combined. NOTE: Some account activity information cannot be 
transferred, but can be checked on-screen before performing the system transfer.
Your Nintendo Network ID and associated information is transferred. NOTE: Once a system transfer 
has been performed, any current or previous ID’s that were linked to the originating system can only 
be re-linked to the destination system.
If a Nintendo Network ID is already registered on the system you are transferring to...
You cannot perform a System Transfer until you first format the System Memory of the destination system (see page 61). This 
will erase the Nintendo Network ID from the system and allow you to perform the System Transfer.
•  Multiple Nintendo Network ID numbers cannot be combined, and software associated with different ID’s cannot be 
combined under one ID.
•  The Nintendo Network ID on the originating system will be erased and can only be re-registered on the destination system.
Precautions when using System Transfer
IMPORTANT: All data is erased from the originating system you are transferring from after System Transfer is complete. Any data on the SD Card that was used on the originating system can only be used on the destination system. After completing the System Transfer, you must use the SD Card from the originating system in the destination system to be able to use your save data with its related software.
All the data, other than the DSiWare, stored in the System Memory of the destination system (including built-in software save data and other data) is overwritten and replaced by the data from the  originating system. If photos or audio are saved in the System Memory of the destination system, copy them to the SD Card before you use System Transfer if you want to save them.
Precautions for Downloadable SoftwareAfter you perform a system transfer, you will no longer be able to use any downloaded software or associ-ated save data that is saved on the SD Card of the destination system. (You can re-download this software from the Nintendo eShop.) However, you can continue to use DSiWare and its associated save data if you copy it and its save data to the System Memory of the destination system before you perform the transfer.
If the same downloadable software has been purchased on both systems, the “Account Activity” record of the same software on the destination system will be erased, and the save data will no longer be usable.  The software from the originating system and its save data will be used on the destination system.
Precautions for Nintendo eShop BalanceIMPORTANT: If the combined account balance of the originating and destination systems exceeds the maxi-mum allowed amount, you will be unable to perform a system transfer. (This amount varies by region.)

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Before seeking assistance, please review the following problems and solutions. You can also visit support.nintendo.com for assistance and additional troubleshooting and repair options, or call 1-800-255-3700.
NOTE: Please also review any instruction manuals for the games or accessories you may be using.
The system won’t charge or the recharge LED doesn’t light up or stay lit.
• Make sure you are using the correct AC adapter, Model No. WAP-002(USA).• Check the battery placement to make sure it is installed correctly (see page 62).• Disconnect the system from the AC adapter and unplug the adapter from the wall outlet. Wait approximately 30 seconds and then reconnect the components. (Review the battery-charging procedure on page 13.)• Make sure you are charging the battery pack within an ambient temperature range of 41°F – 95°F (5°C – 35°C). The battery pack may not charge properly outside of this range.• If the recharge LED is blinking or won’t stay lit, visit support.nintendo.com for assistance and additional troubleshooting and repair options, or call 1-800-255-3700.
It takes a long time to charge the battery pack or a battery charge doesn’t last very long.
• Make sure you aren’t exposing the system to or charging the system in temperatures below the ambient temperature range of 41°F – 95°F (5°C – 35°C). Cold temperatures can increase the recharge time and decrease the usage time of a charged battery.• Over time and after repeated charging, the performance of the battery will decrease. If you have had the system for a long time, or if the battery pack appears slightly swollen, try replacing the battery pack.
The system seems too warm.
• Make sure you are neither exposing the system to nor charging the system in temperatures above the ambient temperature range of 41°F – 95°F (5°C – 35°C). Do not expose the system to direct sunlight in an enclosed space.
The system won’t turn on or there is no picture or sound.
• Make sure the battery pack is charged (see page 13).• Check to see if the power LED lights up when you press the POWER Button.• If you are using a Game Card, make sure it is fully inserted into the Game Card slot until it clicks into place.• The battery pack may be installed incorrectly. Check the installation of the battery pack (see page 62).• Wake the system if it is in Sleep Mode by pushing the Sleep switch to the left (see page 14) and pressing the Power button. If the system still won’t wake, the software you are using may not allow you to exit from Sleep Mode. Refer to the software instruc-tions for more information.
A Game Card won’t play.
• Make sure the game content is not restricted by Parental Controls. If this is the case, you can either enter a PIN to temporarily turn off Parental Controls, or you can reconfigure Parental Controls. See Parental Controls in System Settings for more information (page 50).
Troubleshooting
The Game Card’s software icon does not appear on the HOME Menu, or the message 
“There is nothing inserted into Game Card slot” is displayed on the HOME Menu, even 
though a Game Card is inserted in the Game Card slot.
• Make sure the Game Card is completely inserted into the Game Card slot until it clicks into place.• Check the Game Card connectors and Game Card slot for dirt, dust, or other foreign material.• Make sure the Game Card is for your region (see the Game Card package for this information).
An error message appeared when playing Nintendo DS or Nintendo DSi software:
“An error has occurred. Press and hold the POWER Button to turn the system off. Please refer to the Operations Manual for details”
• Turn off your system, then on again. Try repeating the same action that caused the error message to occur. If the same error occurs again, please visit support.nintendo.com for assistance and additional troubleshooting and repair options, or call 1-800-255-3700.
I can’t see the 3D effect in images taken with the outer cameras (must be saved on an SD 
Card and viewed on a Nintendo 3DS or Nintendo 3DS XL system).
• Make sure the image was taken with the outer cameras, not the inner camera.• Make sure the lenses for the outer cameras are clean and free of dirt or dust. Clean with a soft, dry cloth if necessary.• Make sure there isn’t a strong light such as direct sunlight shining on the camera lenses.
IMPORTANT: If your system has been subjected to a physical shock or high temperatures, this could change the alignment of the outer cameras and affect the 3D image quality. If you think your system may be affected by this, see page 54 for more information on calibrating the outer cameras.
When I take pictures with the Nintendo 2DS, the colors don’t seem correct.
• Check the camera mode settings for the cameras (see page 22).• This may be caused by recording conditions, for example, a dark environment with subject matter of mostly one color that takes up most of the view. Try adjusting the settings for the cameras, and taking additional photos to see if the problem is corrected.
Some pixels on either the upper or lower screen are always dark or lit.
• Due to the characteristics of liquid crystal displays, a small number of pixels may not illuminate, or may always stay lit. This is normal and not considered a defect unless the number of pixels that don’t function normally increase over time.
The brightness or color between the upper and lower screens seems different.
• The specifications of the upper and lower screens are different so the appearance of images may be different. This is normal and is not considered a defect.

There is no sound from the headphones.• Try adjusting the volume control to make sure the volume is not turned off. • Make sure the headphones are fully inserted all the way into the audio jack.
The microphone doesn’t seem to work or recognize sounds (including headset microphones).• Make sure the software you are using includes microphone features.• Confirm that the microphone is operating correctly by performing a microphone test in System Settings (see page 54).• Some voices may be difficult for the system to recognize. Try having a different person speak the same word or phrase to verify if this is the problem.• If you are using a headset microphone, try removing it and using the built-in system microphone.
The microphone seems to respond on its own, or there is feedback from the speaker 
(including headset microphones).• The microphone may be responding either to ambient noise in the environment or to noise coming from the speaker. Try to remove the source of the noise or move to another location. You can also try lowering the speaker volume or use headphones.NOTE: If the speaker is emitting odd or high-pitched noises, this may be caused by feedback from the microphone. Lowering the volume should solve this problem.• If you are using a headset microphone, try removing it and using the built-in system microphone.
The screen image does not match my movement, or moves when I’m not moving the 
system (for software that requires the system to be moved during game play).
The system’s built-in motion sensor may need to be recalibrated. This can be caused by sudden drastic temperature changes or by a strong impact to the system.
To recalibrate the motion sensor, follow these steps:
NOTE: If you use the Calibrate option, the system will calibrate the motion sensor based on the system being located on a flat horizontal surface, rather than returning to the factory default settings.
While the HOME Menu is displayed, press and hold 
 and  for three seconds.When the Motion Sensor Calibration screen appears, lay the system on a flat horizontal sur-face such as a tabletop and tap either Calibrate or Revert to Default Settings.

Video and Computer Game Software Rating Information
Warranty and Service Information
The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) ratings are designed to provide information about video and computer game content so you can make informed purchasing decisions. ESRB ratings have two parts: rating symbols suggest age appropriateness for the game, and content descriptors indicate elements in a game that may have triggered a particular rating and/or may be of interest or concern.
To take full advantage of the ESRB rating system, it’s important to check both the rating symbol (found on the front of the game box) and the content descriptor (found on the back of the game box).
Go to www.esrb.org for a complete list of these content descriptors.
The ESRB rating system is designed to provide information about a computer or video game. The ratings are not meant to recom-mend which games consumers should buy or rent or to serve as the only basis for choosing a product. Rather, individuals should use the ESRB ratings together with personal tastes and standards when deciding what is best to purchase.
