I didn't know whether to put this on video game thread or start a new one....as it's not about a specific game.

But I wondered how can I get save files from my old device onto the new one so I don't have to start from the beginning again on all the games?? ..some I don't mind starting again ...but like Animal Crossing I have a memorial island and my character is named after my mum so I can 'visit her' virtually! ...also got some 'memorial builds' in Minecraft that months of building have gone into! (that's quite a large file)


as I was gonna trade the old device in with some games to raise money for a BOTW2 special edition when it comes out (as they usually cost more than just the standard physical copy).

Thanks

Yeah I checked it seems a nightmare particularly for Animal Crossing. I decided to start a new island. I'll keep the old one for now...I can 'visit' the new island and take furniture and stuff over to speed things up a bit!!!


Once I get new Island past the point the other one was at (hadn't really done that much to it other than my house and the first shops/museum) I'll just delete the save data on that one so I can sell it.

in your phone settings you may have a setting to turn on the "cloud". in your games connect them to your facebook or your google account that your cell phone browser uses. they will automatically update to your facebook cloud or your google cloud account.
