= | {{Warning|text=A system transfer can only be done between two consoles that are the same region, and both must have a functional eShop! If at least one of your consoles has a nonfunctional eShop, such as after doing a region change, follow [[3DS:Movable Moveover|Movable Moveover instead]].}}<!--If the target console does not already have CFW, follow [[../Target is stock|this guide]] instead.--> | ||

#* The prompt mentioning this is not given when transferring between two Old 3DS consoles or two New 3DS consoles. These transfers are almost the same as PC-Based Transfers, but ask you to move the '''source console''''s physical SD card to the '''target console''' rather than just copy the data over. This part can be ignored without consequence, and you can copy the data between the SD cards anyway | #*The prompt mentioning this is not given when transferring between two Old 3DS consoles or two New 3DS consoles.
