- Press the
HOME
button - Navigate to
Title manager
and press A - Select which drive you want to uninstall from and press A
- SD Card is where all your installed software, games, updates, and DLC is located
- NAND / TWL is where system software and DSiWare is located
Do not uninstall any system titles! This can cause a brick! If you have a problem with a system app not working, then please perform a system update or a Safe Mode update instead! - Find which title you want to uninstall and press A
