No, only the games listed on the Powersaves site (which are all 3DS games) workįor the most part yes, but they're not completely safe so keep that in mind. If you want to get the most out of your 3DS, I'd recommend CFW, if you just need a little boost and are content with what Powersaves offers, then just stick with it. CFW's advantage is pretty much everything else, it can do more and is easier once set up. Powersaves' main advantage is ease of set up and low barrier to entry, as long as you have a 3DS and a computer, you can very easily use Powersaves without issue. This is a matter of preference, one is not empirically better than the other. This video can help explain things further It can happen, but don't bet on it, especially if you bought the second cart later than the first. The cart needs to be the same 'model', for the device to recognise them as the same, so they need to be made at the same place, at the same time.

Power Points were a way/cash grab of getting codes early, however no game currently uses them, and all codes can be used by anyone without having to pay extra.Ĭan I transfer a save from one cartridge to another?

What games are supported and what codes do they have?įull list of the games can be found here, click on any game listed for the code list on that game to pop up If you bought a Powerplay but wish to use all the Powersaves codes then you'll need to get an 'upgrade' which is basically a new license key, here Today they're all sold as Powersaves Pro, but if you see something labelled just 'Powersaves', then it's just old stock, but it should still work fine.Ī Powerplay is physically the same as a Powersaves, but has a different license key, as such it only works on the Gen VI Pokemon games. What's the difference between a Powersaves and a Powersaves Pro?Ī Powersaves Pro and a Powersaves are the same item just packaged differently for marketing purposes. Just make sure it's for the right region, as the License Keys are locked to PAL or NA. The official place to purchase a Powersaves is the CodeJunkies site here, however other stores such as Amazon and Walmart also have them in stock, as long as it's a reputable seller, you'll probably be fine. As it is a cart reader it cannot affect your console, or SD card, as as such only works on physical carts. Through your PC and the Powersaves application you can enter codes directly onto the cart. A Powersaves is a cart reader that connects via USB to your PC.
