Hey all

I got a bit of an issue. I've been tempted to get a hard copy of the game even though I already have an electronic version downloaded. My question is however, if I get a hard copy, does the 3ds treat it as though the hard copy is a separate version of SSB4 or if I pop it in, can the data transfer from one version to another?

Of particular concern is my online record and current replays. If not, is there a way to transfer my current SSB4 data from the electronic version to the hard copy?

The main reason I want to get a hard copy is, well, just in case my 3ds hypothetically broke for some reason, but I still got a copy of the game and also because I learned the electronic copy drains battery a LOT faster than the hard one.

I got almost no idea how the hard copy of the game interacts with an already installed electronic one, or to transfer data, but I would greatly appreciate if someone could tell me how this works.

Cheers
