Post Body

Just as I said. I bought an R4 gold off of Amazon that came with an SD Card ready to go, and it works great...except that the file management system isn't showing any games other than GBA or DS.

NES, SNES, MD, GB, GBC, etc. are not showing up. What's even weirder is that it has some preloaded games of those types installed on the SD card already, with folders set aside and everything, but the folders read as empty when I boot the 3DS up and browse, while all DS and GBA games show up just fine.

What might be going on here?
