Ok, here's the deal: Back in 2006 I bought a GameTransfer GB so I could make a backup of my Pokémon Red cartridge before the internal battery ran dry. I successfully made such back up, hoping that someday I could transfer my trusty team to the modern games.
Lo and behold, that day may arrive in November, when using the Pokétransfer, Pokémon bank and the Virtual Console Pokémon Red everyone will supposedly be able to transfer Gen I Pokémon into the newer generation.
So, as a chump, I bought the Pokémon Red Virtual console game and copied the back up of my original Red into the SD card. And... it told me the save file was corrupted.
Searching online I found that, while my idea is possible, I need a... jailbroken? (is that the term for 3DSs?) 3DS. In no way or form I'm going to hack my 3DS.
But I have my older, original model 3DS stored. So, what I ask is the following: is there a way to use my the backup of my Red Cartridge in the Virtual Console game of my 3DS using the cracked original model 3DS?
