You want to completely delete your Nintendogs + Cats game. Maybe you've made a mistake, or you have too many dogs, or you just want to start over. You can find this information and more in the Nintendogs manual – but if you don't have a manual, read on and learn how to quickly and easily delete your old file!

Steps

Open your Nintendogs + Cats game. To begin, turn on your Nintendo3DS and navigate to your Nintendogs + Cats game.

Press and hold the A, B, X, and Y buttons. While your Nintendogs + Cats game is loading, hold these four buttons down at the same time. This will bring up a pop-up screen that prompts you to delete your save file and start the game over. Make sure to press the buttons before the title screen appears! Press A, B, X, and Y as soon as the "Nintendogs + Cats" logo appears. This should be a white loading screen with a small dog icon running in the bottom left-hand corner. If this button combination doesn't work, try pressing the L and R buttons in addition. In total: A, B, X, Y, L, and R.

Select "Yes" to delete your save file. A question will pop up asking you if you want to delete your save file. Make sure that you are ready to lose all of your progress from this game – including all dogs, cats, and items. There is no way to recover the save file once it's gone.
