Please Note: The "Data Management" setting will not be displayed until you connect online and enter the Nintendo DSi Shop for the first time. After you have entered the Nintendo DSi Shop, "Data Management" will appear in System Settings Page 1.

Available from the Nintendo DSi System Settings menu, Data Management lets you copy and delete data from the system's memory or inserted SD Card.
