I just got a 16 gb SD card from Walmart for $7. I had the original 2 gb card from the 3DS and Animal Crossing New Leaf almost used all of its room. How big do you need of an SD card?
I don't know how big I need but I got 32 GB sd card just to be on the safe side my 2 GB included sd card was full of 1 digital games and a ton of small ambassador games and other games
Currently playing:
Pokemon X
Bravely Default
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate The metrologgery
I have 13 full games on my 32gb card and its storage space is barely scratched. I could fit another 30 games on it easily. Most games are well under 1gb. The only ridiculously bloated game I can think of is Resident Evil: Revelations, which is over 3gb. A few more are around 1.5gb like Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and Shin Megami Tensei IV.
But yeah, the vast majority are in the 400-800mb range.
I bought a 32GB card, and I like having it, but the last time I did a backup to my computer, I was under 4GB. So, I would have needed a new card over the 2GB that came with the original 3DS, but I will probably never need 32GB of space. Or, it'll hold me for a very long time.
I never "needed" because I still need a better one....
2GB is only enough for Monster Hunter and little else.
goodbyes are a sad part of life but for every end there's a new beggining so one must never stop looking forward to the next dawn

I upgraded from the orginal 2GB to a 4GB on my 3DS a while back. So far its been enough for a bunch of eShop games and the two retail downloads I have (Luigi's Mansion 2 and Animal Crossing). But I have been noticing that demos do get it near the limit, so I probably will upgrade again if I decide to get another full retail game. But so far I've been deleting demos after I'm done with them, so I haven't had a reason to upgrade yet.
Not yet but thats cause the only games I have digital are the VC games. All my other games like Super Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 7, A Link Between Worlds etc. are all physical.
