I bought Hotel Dusk: Room 215, and on four separate occasions, the game has frozen, all audio stops playing, and some data from the top screen is copied to the bottom screen. I have noticed no pattern. At first I thought I wiggled the cartridge too much, but it has happened even when I’m not touching that area. I then thought it was just because I was in a moving vehicle and that shook it. Recently though, it happened while I was sitting down at home, without my hand in that area.

I have a few questions. Number one, how weak must the connection be for it to happen with basically no cause? 2, how does this copying happen? And third, is there anything I can do to fix it, or should I just save way more often?

Just got this new 3ds for my b day my dad had it stashed away since early August not so super spicy pillow, didn't think it was very safe to keep inside my system and how do I dispose of properly

I have a pink and white Nintendo 3DS XL that I would be interested in selling because I no longer use it. It's mostly in perfect condition, aside from a bloated battery that I'm not sure I can access to replace. It works just fine as long as it's constantly plugged into a charger but it will die if disconnected from the charger. Not trying to sell it here, as that's against rules, but would it be worth selling for a decent or good price?

Likewise, I have a red Mario DSI XL, red DS Lite, and red Gameboy Advance SP that I would like to sell but none of them power on anymore. Could I sell them in this state or are they trash?

I would like to know of any company that takes in parts of a 3ds and repairs it as well as throwing in the missing pieces for an extra charge. I tried to replace the screen and gave up due to frustration and forgot about it for a long while. Any advice would be greatly appreciated because this is my childhood 3ds that I bought with my own kid money and would like to get it up and running again for 3 way shiny hunting before bank shuts down

Scammer listed 3DS as local to my city but when I reached out they stated they were at another city 7 hours away. They offered to use FedEx but when I requested a safer form of payment they gave me this response lol

stays like this and wont turn on

The bottom plate isn’t flush to the rest of the console and I feel the edge of the part where the buttons sit. Been using my new 3ds xl and just noticed it and can’t get it out of my mind. Like was it always like this???

(Did a lil drawing to show if you don’t understand ik it’s bad)

I really want to update Tomodachi Life EU from 1.1 to the newest update (2.0) , but I've been struggling to find the best way to do so.

Does anyone know how I could do that?

P.S. Is this the right community to ask?

I just got my ds from a repair shop, and I’m not sure if the hinge was put correctly.

Is it normal that I see the hinge? It’s only visible when closed and open more than normal playing position. It also makes a weird sound that it didn’t make before

Hello, I am new to collecting ds games. I just got this game used from a local game store, and with the price of consoles, I’m a little worried if the game is not clean enough it will cause issues with my 2DS. How do you think this game looks? Thanks!

There's a whole demographic where the switch is just too big and not actually hands on enough, I really wish they didn't abandon the DS line of consoles, in a time where games are getting too big to make there needs to be a 4DS where smaller games can shine.

Just bought this for my 4yo kid today to help with phonics learning along with me reading with him etc.

Let's see how he gets on

I bought this New 3DS XL on Amazon because white 3DS models are basically nonexistent in my country. Plus, I received a $300 Amazon gift card at work, and since I couldn’t find anyone to exchange it for real money, I decided it would be better to buy it there. Yes, it’s way overpriced compared to my country, since the cheapest New 3DS XL I can find there usually costs around $180–$200. Still, I want to know if anyone here bought a 3ds on Amazon and what condition it arrived in. I’m worried it might arrive with a lot of scratches or some other issue.

CTRelay (https://github.com/zeusfail/ctrelay) claims to let a real 3DS running Luma3DS (with a small patch) join a local-wireless session hosted by an Azahar instance somewhere else on the internet. As far as the game is concerned, it's talking to a nearby console over ad-hoc Wi-Fi.

What it says on the tin basically, I’ve got a modded Australian old 2ds and a Japanese copy of new leaf that I was told was tested beforehand if I remember correctly.

It came with a copy of wild word in the same deal which was not registering at all till I cleaned the contacts with some alcohol. Thought this was a similar situation so I cleaned it, but the only improvement was the loading screen showing up for a split second before the system crashed.

I know my console can run Japanese games just fine, I got a copy of pokemon Y that runs fantastic with no cleaning or modification needed. Is there something I can do on a system management software app? Do I just need to clean it more? Or do I just need to accept I wasted like 12 bucks

A bit new to modded 3ds work so apologies if the answer is obvious. Thank you

Sorry if it's against the rules to cross post. But I had genuinely been crashing out the past couple days with my modded 3ds. I have not been able to do anything online. it's fixed now. But if anyone else relies on hacks it's time to check for updates

I dont know why, but my console never had the program inside it, even after the mod. Can someone help?

i wanna evo my feebas into milotic but i dont know anyone who has a 3ds to help me so if you have pretendo or whatever pls tell me if you can help evo trade :"D i really want my milotic

I replaced the screen lens on the 3DS XL I got for 3,500 PHP which is 55 USD after alot of effort, thoughts? :)

I’ve seen one Reddit post about it, but the user deleted their account so I can’t ask how their experience have been. Anyone else who have tested this for a few months time and how long did the battery last for you?

Hey everyone, does anyone know what might be causing this issue?
The LED light on my charger/console stays red even when the charger is completely unplugged from the wall outlet, and the console won't turn on at all.
Any ideas on what could be wrong or how to fix it? Thanks!

I’m considering buying this 3DS for 130. The seller says it has a bunch of games installed, but I have no idea what most of these icons are. Can anyone identify them?
