So last night my 3DS broken.
*
Its a long story...
When I first received my 3DS on my birthday, a month after a dad purchased it, its controls and touchpad would glitch out. I remember when I first starting playing Animal Crossing for the first time, my character wouldn't stop running.... Contacting Nintendo they wanted me to send the 3DS in but I wouldn't due to I may lose my town. A week or so later the glitched cleared up contacting Nintendo again they said don't worry about it. From that moment on I could feel my 3DS was a bad egg. The one that wasn't properly made out of the millions. But what can I say, its only a feeling.
A few months later, last month actually or less my 3DS's charger starting acting up. I wasn't sure what it was but I was scared to use my charger. Every time I plugged it in the charger wouldn't charge the 3DS properly, sometimes it would, sometimes not. This really pickled me since I take high care of my 3DS. I then rang Nintendo up again and they told me to contact Simnet (http://www.simnet.co.nz/nintendo-repair-agent), note I live in New Zealand, to get it repaired. But everytime I tried contacting simnet they would never reply. Calling them would just let to them saying "We can't get your call at this moment, please check our website instead" or something like that. Not getting help even emailing nintendo telling me the same thing. I just carefully charged my 3DS since I use it very daily.
Now getting to last night, cleaning up my 3DS fall off my bed about a "foot" onto carpeting. Shocked I picked it up straight away and I noticed the charger input was looking funny. I couldn't tell if it was the input on the 3DS or charger or both. I thought that was it, a 3DS can't break from a tiny fall like that it should at less outstanding it safe enough. Not playing with it anymore. Note my 3DS wears a hard case, but I guess it landed on its charger point. But I knew for sure that was cause of this damage was the charger. Attaching my 3DS candle, it was the charger....but still unsure of the condition of the 3DS. Charging problems getting even worse, I needed action to be done now!
I then went to the store my father bought my 3DS from and they said under warranty they would repair it, finally! The guy told me as I expected they might erase my system data. But he said he will let me know if they will, and special caution will be taken as much as they can to not remove it. He said it might not even come to that, he might be able to fix it at the shop with Nintendo's permission without even sending it to Nintendo but we will see.
Anyway, taking my 3DS contents and box. Taking care of my 3DS and charger to be fix, while holding everything else in care like my SD card.

The question I ask here what is going to happen to my Animal Crossing saved data? I care a lot about this game and I will be crushed if something goes wrong. What will happen if they have to delete the system data on my 3DS, how will it affect the game? Note my game is a download and on the SD so I know the file will be fine I hope. Backing it up on my computer as well before I handed it over. Will it reject the save data and erase it on the SD card if my 3DS's system data is erased? IDK how 3DSs act to downloaded games if you put them on another 3DS. I know if you use old saved data of your 3DS it will reject it.
Also what will happen to my cartridge games, not Animal Crossing (since its a download and my only copy), but Pokemon X...
Sorry for letting you reading this huge post, but thank you for your kindness.
I will be heartbroken if I lose my town, it means a lot to me...

, but at least I still have Fire Emblem. Although the data is still on Fire Emblem, the DLCs are all gone.
