another thing you should incorporate in each DS test is holding START or SELECT while powering on the DS. this will either reveal the godmode9 or LUMA menu if the DS happens to be jailbroken on Custom Firmware. Great video, cheers! Edit: this could also be a reason for the random empty folders. Some of my homebrew apps in folders are not there when I launch my DS without the SD card but the folders remain

I love the 3D effect, but the OG 3DS and XL had to be held in a very specific manner or it wouldn't work right. The improved eye tracking on the New models was a godsend. Still drains the battery very quick, so I only use it sparingly, though.

@technicavivunt Год назад

One thing to note on the charging ports. Invest in a charging cradle since the use the golden contacts beside the ports to charge. Good workaround until you can replace the actual port

@sebauy Год назад

The little metallic plates on each side of the charging port connects to the 3ds dock and allow it to take a charge, you could try that or just replace the port, its pretty straight forward. Greetings from Uruguay!

@Nebula.21_ Год назад

Okay so little heads up regarding testing DS games specifically, I've modded a 3ds in the past before and messed up DS mode specifically in a way that caused touch screen inputs to just not work at all specifically on DS games, I've only ever had it happen that one time but it is something I thought I should mention here as something to test

@DvdXploitr Год назад

I would play my 3DS in 2D mostly, but I did at least try the 3D in every game I played just to see how it looked. Some games were better than others

@somesalmon5694 5 дней назад

There's some awesome homebrew now that lets you change the 3d intensity in each game to really tune it to your preference. Its super easy to do and if you preferred the 3ds in majoras mask or ocarina of time respectively you can change the other to match :)

With the new nintendo 3ds however they improved the 3d system drastically so the 3d is better and drastically reduces the headache side effect if i remember correctly

@HannahCharlesworth98 Год назад

@@derpdude32 Yeah 100%. I have the original 3DS and I rarely use the 3D function because it's so janky. My new 3DSxl though works fine. I still don't use it all the time but I'm way more inclined to use it on the new systems. They really perfected it by then

@roflBeck Год назад

I remember the 3D effect would cut into the battery life a lot on these things. I had the original 3DS for a while. I now have one of those black and blue 2DSXLs, don't have access to that 3D feature but eh oh well lol.

@himbourbanist 4 месяца назад

yeah the 3D feature was really more of a gimick than anything. Cool idea to try out here and there but definitely not needed to get the most value out of the console

You are correct, the 3d has to essentially drive twice the pixels on the top screen so it drains tbe battery a fair bit faster

@Moon-je7ng Год назад

The new 3ds xl probably has cfw on it. Try removing the sd card and try to turn it on, that could possibly solve the issue

@somesalmon5694 5 дней назад

Id recommend testing with start or select when booting or load the sd card with the respective file structure to see if it boots loads the cfw or check the firmware version in settings

@jxstadri Год назад

The way Animal Crossing New Leaf was the most played game from 2015 - 2020 on my 3DS XL like I used to play it for hours. I wish I could see the stats for my old 3DS but I dropped that one too many times and then after the final time, a specific part that is responsible for the console to turn went missing and it‘s the fact that it still has some charge which means if it would be prepared I could use it again

@dorianfreeman1129 Год назад

Fun fact: the way that the 3ds does 3d is by showing a different image to each eye. I forgot what the word was but it also means you can cancel out the 3d effect by closing one eye.

@steppintofreedomthings1894 Год назад

I'm sure the New 3DS XL has been fixed or sold by this point, but I bought a regular New 3DS with the same issue and wound up having to put a new motherboard in. Not sure what was bad on the old one, but I accidentally damaged a SMALL cable socket during reassembly, so I just replaced the board. Worked good as new after that

@AlicePhantom Год назад

The backdated 3DS are probably so they could get more coins. You could only get 10 coins per day, and it was a coin per one thousand steps. But if you changed the date, you could get as many coins as you wanted. I used to backdate/future date my 3DS when I knew I'd be walking alot so I could get more coins. I think I future dated more often than back date cause if I did games/photos it would show I played when I actually didn't. But future dating I'd probably play on that date or still have the 3DS. Which to this day I still have my 3DS even past the dates I'd go to. (Which would just be forwarding the year of whatever day I was out on.)

Very confusing thing happened to me, I have a 2DS XL , a blue one like the one you have in this video. I hadn’t touched it or turned it on in over a year and a half. I went to boot it up and it was dead so I left it on the charger for about an hour and tried again, and both screens like the issue you had on the 3DS wasn’t turning on. The power light indicated it was on and charged, and the backlight even appeared to be on but it was just black. I figured since I had home brewed it, and hadn’t touched it in a while it somehow broke. Fast forward like 3-4 months and I tried turning it on again for the hell of it….and it now works flawlessly. I have no idea what the issue was but hey it’s back to life 😂

@cringebird Год назад

same thing happened to me the other day, i shut my n3ds for a few hours, opened it back up and both of the screens were dead, at first it wasnt making noise but i hit the home button and it then made the home menu sound, force turning it off and turning it on again seemed to miraculously fix it, seems like maybe homebrew consoles have a chance to just not have their screens work or smth
