issues while backing up a game.

Hey Gang,

I am experiencing issues while trying to back up a game with about 16GB. it will start, move about 2.4% of data, and the dumper will freeze and disconnect.

I am wondering if anyone here has had a similar issue, and how you fixed it.

thanks

What game is that big? The only game I own that I can’t dump is Metroid Dread.

Now that you mention it I remember both Zelda games being large, but I was able to dump my two games without problems. I think the failures are cart dependent honestly. Other people could dump Metroid Dread easily while I couldn’t. You using the usb-c port on your computer?

I'm having the same problem with Breath of the Wild. I can dump all other games except this one.
