Topic: Changing from DS Lite to DSi

If I have a bunch of points in a game (I got them all on my DS Lite) and I put the game in my new DSi, will I lose all my points/progress?

No, progress is saved to the game carts, rather than the systems.

Ha, for a second there, I thought you meant Nintendo Points...
Anyway, so long as that record was not obtained with any part of Nintendo Wifi, then your're fine. However, the moment you upload your new DSi to Wifi with your old game, all of your previous Wifi records will be erased, so be forwarned...

@BleachFan888 I think you can transfer Wi-Fi data from one system to another.

Digiki,

Did you mean, "No, you will not lose your points because the game progress is saved to the cart, not to the console?" (Hard to tell as you did not use a comma in your answer, it looks like you are saying, No progress is saved in the cart..." but I think you are meaning "No, (comma) Progress is saved in the game carts.

Can you confirm?

@MCNH What I can confirm is the DS has no built-in memory, nor the option to save things to it, so all progress is saved to the Game Card. Haven't you ever played one of your friend's games on your DS, or vice-versa? The DSi is no different.

Thanks Odnetnin. In short, no I haven't. I am asking for my 8 year old son who was afraid to play an old game in his new console for fear of losing his progress. I do not DS.

I appreciate you taking the time to respond.

@MCNH Ha, no problem!

That one. Dang, comma...
