Question about digital New Leaf

[Midgetsc]

Okay, so I bought the digital version of New Leaf rather than the cartridge one.

I kinda wanna make two towns, and, to my knowledge, the game will let me redownload. If I were to swap SD cards, would I be able to put the game on both of them, or would I have to buy it again? I'd get the cartridge, but I can't find one in any stores. ;-; Stupid popular games.

i heard somewhere if you have 2 digital copies and you swap the sd card it would ruin your first towns data and make it corrupted
so yeah the only way is with the cartridge

Dang. Okay.

If you were to do that (save Town A, swap to a different SD Card to save Town B, then swap back to the SD Card that has Town A), you'll stumble upon this screen below.

So no. You cannot play two digital towns alternatively on the same 3DS.

But if you have a digital copy and were to switch to a different DS, can you just switch the sim card and still play with the same town.
Some people were saying you can't transfer a digital file to a new DS since it'll screw the game up.
