This page describes the format and crypto of extdata, "extra data" and StreetPass data stored on SD card. At /Nintendo 3DS/<SomeID>/<SomeID>/extdata/00000000 is directories for each title, with Quota.dat inside each dir. Then there's a sub-directory 00000000, which contains the actual extdata. Size and number of files in this dir varies per title.
These files are encrypted with AES-CTR. The key is unknown, this is console-unique and presumably game-unique. The base CTR is fixed: the CTR never changes after each write. Thus it is possible to obtain some cleartext by XORing one file with a newer file, where the newer file overwrote zeros in the original file with non-zero data.
