Spent $60 on a decade-old Monster Hunter save transfer kit that barely worked

Found my old Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate save on a Wii U that's been in my closet since 2016. Wanted to move it to my Switch. Nintendo's transfer tool for that is discontinued, so I bought a third-party adapter off eBay for $60. It corrupted the data on the first try, and I spent two hours redoing it with a different USB port before it finally took. The save was for 200 hours of hunting that I'll probably never touch again anyway. Anyone else ever fork over cash for a janky accessory just to move old game files around?

I gotta say "200 hours of hunting that I'll probably never touch again anyway" kinda sums it up. You dropped $60 and two hours on something you admitted you might not even use. Seems like a lot of fuss for a save file that's just gonna sit there.

Ngl this is exactly what I was thinking but you said it better.
