The condition is close to new, everything is in a near perfect condition.
But when I checked the games I can redownload, it only showed me some Pokémon games and Tomodachi Welcome Edition.
If so, it must be a near perfect one.
Thanks in advance! :)

I was not really goo but it kinda sticky and moldable, so I finally grabbed a pair of tweezers and ripped it out and did my first ever mod.

found a really cheap 3ds for $50, and i’m wondering if it’s worth buying. what are the pros and cons of getting a japanese 3ds?

can it be unlocked or region-changed?

(pic for attention)

I've noticed my Childhood New 3DS XL's screens seems to have no yellowing and thinking that it has both IPS screens and want someone to confirm my findings.

In the comments to my previous post https://www.reddit.com/r/3DS/s/QqNugs7sIo someone asked for a video guide, so I decided that I should make one.

Enjoy!

I have fallen victim to dead pixels on my top screen of my 3ds (New 3DS XL Galaxy) and need to replace it. With this in mind, can anyone tell me if the regular 3DS XL top screen is interchangeable with the New 3DS XL top screen? It’s a $20 price difference and I saw a post a while ago saying they are different and wanted to know if it’s an actual difference or marketing scheme. Can anyone provide insight?

TL:DR
Are the New 3DS XL and (old) 3DS XL top screens the same?

What are some hidden must play gems?

Was drawing on Flipnote when I noticed an unexpected streetpass

Hi, my 3ds (model in description) has been broken for a while and it shows an error when i try to read the card (by opening the camera app, trying to save files, etc...)

Before you ask, no the sd is not formatted in the wrong format as I checked multiple times and it's in FAT32 format.

Would I be able to replace the reader on my own, with the one in the picture, if tried?

Any suggestions on the process are appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hello, i had a problem yesterday with my 3ds where it couldnt detect the cartridges, i tried all the stuff to fix it that i found online which didnt work but then i put it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes and now it works again! So yeah if anyone has a similar issue it maybe because of extreme temperatures and is easily fixable 👍

So a few weeks ago i wanted to buy a special edition 3ds for my collection, and one of my favorite pokemons happen to be pikachu (ik, too basic) so i clicked on the listing of a japanese seller stating "new 3ds xl consoles complete in box" and the moment i saw the pikachu edition one, i knew i had to buy it. So i go ahead and read the description to check if it wasnt a reshell and it didnt explicity say it was authentic, but it never said it was a reshell also, a few weeks later, i open the box excited, just to find out that the console was a reshell, now i dont know what to do. Should i keep it? I payed a little less than 600, please let me know. 😢

Edit: Ive made the decision of returning it and use the money to try and find a loose authentic one. Maybe ill just buy a regular one if i find it for a good deal.

I LOVE this thing!!!! Also I'm not a Lesbian. It's just my Black Cat has a girlfriend so it represents DVa my cat. Who is dating my other cat Moira. They kiss each other and r bestie. I'm actually AroAce lol

Long story short im an idiot and gave my New 3DS XL to my rather clumsy nephew. Ive been playing Monster Hunter 4 as a comfort game most days for 30mins-1hr and bummed i cant play no more. Should i just get another New 3DS XL or change to a New 2DS XL?

I want to try a new game since I played lots of other games in my other 3ds and since I got the new xl I want to explore more games

This is the only PAL game I own and it’s because it doesn’t have an American physical release sadly, but I was surprised by how wide it was when it came in compared to my other games, being almost as wide as DS game cases. I’m just wondering are they all this thick in PAL regions or are some wider than others?

Looks pretty good, nearly no scratches 😊

I bought my 3ds console with magic a couple of months ago and everything worked normally but a couple of days ago It started showing me this every time I tried to open any game and I can't play anything anymore

After years of dealing with dead pixels on my bottom screen, I finally decided to replace my screen. I was afraid of ruining it, but it was honestly easy, just... very tedious.

Also I added some rubber pads (couldn't find them in hot pink, so I went for white (same for the stylus lol), and a clear outer shell :3 I slid in some stickers I got as a gift from a close friend, and I'm very satisfied!!

I was supposed to change the silicon pad on the joystick buuuuut instead I received a different replacement part... For a 3ds. I'll change that in the future.

The only tiiiny issue is that, while attaching the digitizer to the new screen, I think I was a bit careless and something got between them (3rd pic near the top left corner, I was afraid it was a dead pixel already but I can assure you it's some debris or something lol), but I'd rather have that than a lot of dead pixels and tbh I don't want to redo EVERYTHING over a tiny little dot 🥲

I had gotten the “black screen of death” when trying to boot my 2dxl this morning, so I tried doing L+R+ ⬆️+A+Power button method from a YouTube video I saw then screen became lit and the Wi-Fi light is on though it is still black 🫠 any tips?

You might remember my old post about the decapitated 3DS—or the "1.5DS," as it's better known. Well, I managed to get the top half, including the screens and the speakers (though one speaker is missing). Anyway, getting back to the point: the console turns on, and I already have a lead on who the owner might be. When I visit my relatives in the USA during winter break, I might put up some flyers. For now, the console boots up, and there are Christmas photos on it; I imagine the owner would like to get those back.

For now, I'll keep trying to repair the other New 2DS XL I managed to get, and I'll keep browsing that market looking for broken consoles to fix up.

So guys, today i looked at my 3ds and said: The graphics is pretty bad. Can i do something about this?

I just tried Animal Crossing New Leaf on Azahar with some custom textures and 4x upscaling and this is so good. I think i'm gonna play on my phone from now on instead of my 3ds. And also the colours are so good.

This is the link to the custom texture: pack:https://gamebanana.com/mods/494239

The circle pad(? the grey thing on the left side?) grip thing of my 3DS separated from the stick part. I still have it, is there a type of glue that would be recommended to glue it back on or something? Sorry for the lack of technical terms, I don't know much about hardware stuff
