Step 1:

Make sure to have an SD card with plenty of free space inside the 3DS/2DS. You may use the same SD card that your EmuNAND is set up with for this step.

Step 4:

Once the process completes, shut off your 3DS/2DS and remove the internal SD card. Place the SD card into your computer and you will find a ROM file with the same name as the Game Code. Move this file to your computer for later use, as it cannot be play ed from the internal SD card

Step 5:

When creating your game backups, it’s a good idea to rename the extension of your ROM from .3ds to .3dz on your computer – this tells the Gateway system it is compatible for online play. Note that this will only work for games you have backed up yourself and does not work for game ROMs you may have obtained elsewhere.
