So I have a new3ds xl I wanna hack and 2 questions

Will legit game cartridges still work with it?

And what hardware besides the 3ds is needed? Is a microsd needed?

Your saves should remain intact, and I'm pretty sure any guides you follow will have you back them up just in case. I think for some it may even simply be part of their standard setup.

To clarify, what's the card size limit? Is a 64 GB card good?

Got a 128, was the same price

64GB is technically better than >64GB for GB/GBA Games. Because of block size and read speed of the SD cart reader on the 3DS. I think the real problem would be noticeable way up 64. like 512GB....

I got a 128, I have a retroid for other systems
