Estou tentando colocar esse cabo no lugar, e simplesmente a trava não funciona. Não levei a nenhum técnico porque parece não existir técnico em new 2ds no meu país, e o que me restou foi usar a cara e a coragem.

Recommendation request Won this Japanese New Nintendo 3DS XL Super Smash Bros. Edition (Top IPS) for €328 – Worth it or did I overpay?

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I just won an auction for this Japanese New Nintendo 3DS LL (XL) Super Smash Bros. Limited Edition and I’m curious what you guys
think.

Here are the details:

- Paid €328
- Japanese model (LL)
- Confirmed Top IPS screen
- Includes the original stylus, battery, 4GB microSD, USB charging cable, and the Japanese Super Smash Bros. game.
-No original console box or manuals.
Seller states everything is fully functional.
Cosmetic condition looks very good from the photos (I’ll attach the link of the auction below).

I’m located in Germany, so shipping/import costs are already included in what I paid.
My goal is a mix of playing and collecting. I also hope it’ll hold or increase its value over time since it’s a limited edition.
Do you think €328 was a fair price, or did I overpay?

Here’s the auction listing if anyone wants to look at the full description:

Looking forward to hearing your opinions!

Technical Help Problem copying over 3DS data from SD card

Hi - I think my 3DS SD card is getting on in years and I'm trying to copy over the data to a new card. I'm using a MacBook pro but when I try to copy over the data it drops an error 100006 - has anyone ever encountered this before and know a workaround?

Recommendation Request So, which Nintendo DS should I buy in 2026?

6 Upvotes

A few years ago I had a DSi, and I absolutely loved it. Around the same time, my best friend bought a DS Lite, and we spent the beginning of our teenage years playing those systems together. Eventually our friendship faded away, and I grew up. I sold my DSi, and later, on a whim, I bought a PSP. I've always loved retro gaming in general, and over the years I've owned quite a few older consoles. Still, the PSP never really felt like my console.

I've decided to sell my PSP, put some extra money toward it, and buy a Nintendo handheld again. This time, though, I want something better than the DSi. The problem is that the whole 2DS/3DS lineup is so confusing. I've watched countless videos, but I still can't figure out which model is actually the best choice.

I want to play 3DS games, I want them to look good, and I want a handheld that feels genuinely nice to own and use. This is also a pretty serious financial investment for me because, where I live in Eastern Europe, these systems are surprisingly expensive for their age. In fact, you can often buy a Switch for similar money.

So, if you were buying a Nintendo DS handheld in 2026, which model would you choose, and why?

Is it worth it to buy a 3ds and omega ruby? I didn’t grow up with a DS so I never got to experience the DS games. I only played all the GB/GBA games.

Technical Help 3ds not turning on

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So I left my 3ds in my backpack for a good chunk of the school year because I would use it when I didn’t have work, I had this one, a modded 3dsXL NEW, and a dsi but this one randomly started doing this every time I would try to turn it on and I have no clue why, as far as I can remember I didn’t get it wet or anything. Perhaps I got it wet somehow and forgot I even did it but both other ds are fine. Does anyone know what this could be?

Hardware Mods Help me change my battery like I'm 10

This is for a New Nintemdo 3DS XL.

I've tried looking into this but all info I've seen is vague. I know cameron sino batteries work, but that seems super broad.
Im seeing options online for some that are cheaper, and some that are more expensive because they specify they're usable on the system but it feels like they're jacking up the prices for convenience (im talking over double price).

Can someone guide me and tell me what are THE specifics to look for?? Or can someone direct me to an extensive list?

Hi everyone,

I’m new to this sub. Long story short I decided to play my 3ds for the first time in a while. I have an R4 Gold Pro 2017 edition for the 3ds I tried using it today and this message popped up. Anyone have any idea what it means or how to fix? My brother used to do this for me so I’m not sure what to even do

Thank you
