3DS only supports 300 installed apps at once

The 3DS appears to have an app limit in place of 300 downloads. One user attempted to download his 301st title, as shown in the image above, but was presented with a notice that this was not possible. Although there were over 100,000 blocks left on the SD card, a message on the 3DS eShop stated: “You can’t download this on your SD card. There is no free space left.”
