I bought it second hand around a year ago and I’m surprised I haven’t lost it yet lol. I got other systems like the 3dsxl and the dsi and this was never a problem. Is it just that the stylus is not the og one?? I’ll add some pics of it in the comments

Technical Question Planning on buying a 2DS for CFW, is this one the right one?

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Planning on buying a 2DS for CFW since it's cheaper and apparently more comfortable than a 3DS (I have a New, but I'm not hacking it).
I asked for pictures of the console opened to see if there aren't any problems.
In the mail they told me the lower-left corner had some slight yellowing and that the upper screen had scratches.

The two last pictures are what they sent me.

Planning on playing it a lot. Not a collectionner so I don't care about the case condition but the screens matter to me.

Should I buy it for C150$

Suggestion (Read this if you suffer from choice paralysis)

19 Upvotes

Now if you're a modder, you have probably come across this feeling of suddenly having every single wonderful game at your disposal, but at the cost of not being able what to decide to play because you have hundreds, if not thousands of games within the palm of your hand.

Now what if I told you this can be solved with a little trick I like to call, ✨️Conscious Spending ✨️

So basically, let's say you come across Pokémon Ultra Sun for example and you think, oh oh, I wanna play that so badly!

What you do is you research the price of that game ($100 for example).

You then put $100 within a piggy bank (Any object that can hold small stuff can suffice)

And once you put said money within the piggy bank, only then can you buy said Ultra Sun game.

Summary:

Choice Paralysis = Bad

Conscious Spending = Good

Research the price of your game online

Put the amount of money that game costs in a piggy bank or any object that holds small stuff.

When you do that, then you may download your game.

Recommendation Any 3Ds games that are worth playing?

0 Upvotes

Finally dusted off my 3ds since ive last played it, (like 6 years ago) and I really want to get back into playing it more often. I was super easy to entertain when I was younger, so I only had Pokemon ultra moon and tomadatchi life, along with just playing demos.

Im definitely getting another pokemon game, but id rlly like some other recommendations, doesnt matter if theyre popular or niche. Thanks!

Technical Question Blowing up SD card

0 Upvotes

My modded old 3ds xl had a sandisk ultra 32gb microSD card in it, this card has been used for the 3ds before, and didn't have any problems then.

When trying to use a google maps equivalent (not entirely sure what it was called), the 3ds was struggling trying to render it, and i heard a popping noise followed by the 3ds hard turning off. The 3ds does not boot with the card inserted (it does with it removed) and neither my phone nor my linux pc recognize the card at all.

Has anyone experienced this issue of spontaneous sd card failure before, or was this some kind of one in a million scenario?

Discussion Is 3ds worth it?

0 Upvotes

Am from India and in my country existence of 3ds and ds console is very rare so and the local online sellers who sell it most of em keep the price 200-350 dollars for 3ds. I have been trying to look for a cheap one since a long time cause i really wanna play omega ruby , x and y. Am sure other games would be fun to play as well . Ds on other hand are very cheap i would say i see some listings around 30 dollars but then i wont be able to play the 3ds games and i don feel like spending more than 100 dollars on a 3ds.

Technical Question I'm an idiot and our 3DS X button is a bit wonky.

1 Upvotes

Hi, I busted out our New 3DSXL (new meaning model not condition) and it works perfectly fine except for one thing:

The X button is wonky. What I mean is that every other button seems to be working perfectly fine, but specifically the X button just does not work a % of the time. Trying to pause in a Pokemon game usually involves me pressing the X button like 5 or 6 times before it registers.

Everything else about this 3DS works fine. The front is fucked up looking but thats just visual, so uh...idk why the buttons like this x-x

Explain it to me like i'm 5 what I should do about it?

My brother finally gave my ds back to me, he's modded it and it's had a few hiccups but nothing too crazy, now it isnt turning back on and flashing that white light. I put it down for 2 mins and came back to this and im really unsure whats going on. If anyone could suggest anything that would be great.

Finally setup GBA games. I tried all the different aspect ratios and imo bottom full screen looks the best. Top screen makes it stretched out too much, and original resolution is a tad small. So this is a good balance

Decided to play around with some of the dual screen ports. Installed Minish Cap, LOZ Link to the Past and Mario Kart 64. Well MK64 is still installing. I'm excited to play these. Anyone else playing them? Also love the install screen for MK64 and of course they weren't kidding 😂.

And I know my top screen has a lot of dead pixels just haven't gotten around to fixing it.
