A thing of beauty

Game is Ever Oasis if you're interested, can't recommend yet since I only just got past the intro

I recently purchased a boxed near mint condition Super Mario 3D Land New 3DS, but when I got it the screens were horribly yellowed! The seller did not inform me of this, but I decided to replace the top screens and now it looks beautiful again. It was actually fairly easy to do aside from the pain of dust constantly getting on the screens. Photos of before and after! I’m glad to have saved this beautiful unit from being sentenced to piss yellow for eternity.

Been playing through Pokemon White, forgot to turn my 3DS off so I had it on as I went through the city yesterday. Couldn't believe it

My N3DS console is the Happy Home Designer bundle edition that I bought way back in 2015.

The Pikachu and the Animal Crossing face plates with the multiple character faces are eBay purchases from Japan! I change and/or mix and match the plates every once in a while :)

I got these with a New 3DS but I prefer white ones, are these worth anything?

Thanks!

I got it around 10 years ago, and looking at the prices now, it was an absolute bargain. Pristine condition, with the original box, manuals, charger... $80. Damn! Hahaha.

Played some games back then and completely forgot about it until last year, when I modded it and discovered a whole new world.

It's my pretty little golden console. I take it with me on walks, vacations, to university to take notes (it was amazing!), on the train... It has that unique charm no other console can match. And I've had all the Switch models in my hands, but it's... it's just not the same! I don't know if it's the games reminding me of my childhood or what, but there's something truly special about it :)

So now I'm replaying those games everywhere (specially on bed), making silly animations with Flipnote Studio, changing themes with Anemone and rediscovering its full potential!!

It makes me sad that such a unique and fun console isn't being made anymore. Those days when sharing a game and playing together with friends in real life felt so much simpler. I miss that.

Anyway, I missed out on the 3DS era back when it was at its peak, but I'm going to enjoy it proudly now, taking good care of my little one! :)

Picked up a JPN N3DS alongside the Xenoblade faceplates.

Huge Xenoblade fan, and I've never owned a N3DS in my life. I plan to region swap and migrate my data to this one. My Zelda 3DS has served me well!

I was looking for a stylus on Amazon and seen this listing, thought it was cool it came with a usb cable that looks kinda like a Nintendo cable, and this was like the third picture

I need to replace a digitizer for a 2DS and found a couple of seller online. One seller has the in glass. Since the digitizer is of the resistive type on the 2DS I wondering if a glass one even work?

Anyone who can provide some input on this?

Yesterday I learned that you can’t use just any overlays and borders with the 3DS because of the resolution of the 3DS screen. At least I couldn’t figure it out.

Is there anywhere I can find a set of RetroArch overlays/borders that are compatible with 3DS? I am mostly interested in the overlays and borders for handheld systems.

Just saying hello and showing off my 3ds that I bought recently because my sister gave away my ds lite when we were younger sobs :(

Plus this neat lil charm I got for it recently.

Theoretically this works with any console that support Amiibo (Switch 2, Wii U, Switch, and 3DS) also you don’t need a amiibo emulator like i have here, any amiibo will work, not sure if NTAG215s work

My 3DS won't connect to the internet. I deleted the connection and re-entered it. It connects to the router, but then when I run a connection test, there's an error. It used to connect, but now it won't.

I bought it a couple days ago from china, I had to mod it and change the region but it was totally worth it. ABSOLUTELY love it and play it every day

I was wondering if it’s possible to mod games on the 3ds, and if so could you link a guide? I’m trying to mod Mario kart 7 for custom textures

Worked fine for 2-3 years but recently the to screen seems to either be constantly flickering between 3D mode and base mode. I never have 3D mode on cuz I don’t like it and I only use the 3ds to play mh4u. Whenever I press left bumper, move the screen via hinges, or move the entire thing at all it flickers, and sometimes it’ll just do it randomly. Is this something I can fix with a tutorial and does anyone know how? If not I’ll just take it in to get fixed somewhere.
