About save-data-copy-tool

Insert the game card, run it, choose where the save should go. It copies cartridge to digital or digital to cartridge, and doesn't wipe the source save.

The target game doesn't have to be started first. The tool formats its save using the same settings as the source. The author's own instructions end with "and hope it works".
