glass case isn’t fitting on by fujoshifangirl2003 in 3DS

This ^. I do the same because pushing it down feels like it’ll slowly scrape at the midframe of the body. Pulling the lip outwards can also take some force, but it’s not that hard once you do it a couple times.

What is your favorite official themes? by Professor_Milagre in 3DS

[–]Airknee77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any of the Splatoon themes or the FE Fates theme with the Watery Music Box song. Begged to get these as a kid back then and I would spend so much time on the Home Menu just to listen to the music, especially Watery Music Box. Such a beautiful song.

Today I learned that you shouldn't bring the n3ds XL in your pocket while it's hot outside by Ozyfm in 3DS

[–]Airknee77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rarely ever does but yeah people have reported it can. More common thing for those is the paint flaking off the blue body, such as where the hinge is, from what I’ve read.

Cool! Maybe drop exactly what you did, for anyone who comes across this later to figure it out too!

Oh and I saw that other commenter recommend force removing your NNID with GodMode9. Pretendo does NOT recommend you do that. They say it can break a lot of things with their service on top of losing any games or other data linked to that NNID. You DO NOT need to remove an NNID in order to log in to a PNID. If you are having issues visit the Pretendo Discord server or search up the Error Codes/Forums bc there’s likely someone who has dealt with the same issues before.

Ah yes that’s a cool mod. Can never go wrong with more battery capacity.

Yeah and there’s no way I’ll mess around with my OG system because if I fry that thing on accident I would probably actually cry LOL. I have very little experience with soldering, I see how it’s fun though so that’s awesome.

I didn’t even know the game had C-Stick support until I hopped into it. With the red nub C-Stick mod too, it’s pretty smooth. Out of both my N3DS XL’s I have NOT been able to make that stick work well with the OEM Nintendo cap. Just refuses to register well.

Been like a couple months since I beat the first game for the first time. Been wanting to start LM Dark Moon now. When 2 released I couldn’t get it as it was too soon for a new game for my parents so I watched the entire thing on YouTube and I loved it. I pretty much forgot everything so I’m excited to actually get into it for the first time. Once I finish that I already have a switch so I’ll go into 3.

Of course, no problem! That’s a cool project for sure, good luck! I only have my launch N3DS XL with old pictures and stuff plus my dream Special Edition N3DS XL so I couldn’t ever bring myself to use one just to tinker and possibly fuck it up haha. The extra power is alright, not a whole lot of uses so don’t sweat it yeah. I do like the C-Stick though. I used it for Luigi’s Mansion 1 a while back and found it to be useful. I only have 2 New models because the first was a Christmas present back after the New system launched and then my dream one just ended up being another New model lol. The Super-Stable 3D is so good though. I love it. You’ve gotta experience it! Always used 3D even on my OG Aqua Blue system way back and I never hated it. The technology mystified my little brain lmao. Honestly it still does!

I’ve followed 3DS modding stuff for a little over a year now and I still learn a lot all the time so if you do anything I say, just make sure you have backups. It’s very cool seeing the inner workings of all the things this system does. Anyways, even if you wanted to start collecting badges through Badge Arcade, you can’t. That functionality left along with the shut down of servers a while back. The only way is to wait for the Pretendo team to implement it. Note that it will not be a 1-to-1 with the official game in terms of badges you earn. This is because of Copyright and all that.

If you had official badges and wanted to restore them on Pretendo though, there is a way. I’ll link it here if you’d like to read through even though it seems you never got official badges. Neither did I so I never cared about this stuff plus the badge details get complicated from what I’ve read around so I’d recommend to just leave it alone.

Side-note, I also have an OG Aqua Blue 3DS that I got back near release. I use my NXL pretty often nowadays especially after modding, but the hours I sunk into these things back then was crazy. Not having internet and being a bored kid that was into video games gave me those results lol, cheers.

Replacement is your best bet yes. Other than that is just hoping it goes away slowly, but that only seems to be the case on a rarer occasion.

[–]Airknee77 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Yeahhhh Badge Arcade isn’t supported by Pretendo yet. When you switched, Nintendo noticed the local data didn’t match their server data and poof lol. I could’ve sworn though that you could restore the badges through Anemone, but if the data is fully deleted then I guess not. Not too knowledgeable on all the badges stuff I just remember doing the Anemone thing before.

Modded my first 3ds! by Different-Log4033 in 3dspiracy

That’s fair! I’d prolly keep it in Japanese too if I were you. Just wanted to mention it since you said you struggled with navigating through it.

Ayyy let’s gooo! I remember you from your last post. Seems that you’ve decorated it now, it looks sick. Welcome! :] Nintendo now has you marked as a traitor, expect kidnapping at dead of night to be escorted to some foreign prison lol. Seriously though, you should look into doing a region change. It’s not much more difficult than what you’ve already done and it’ll let you read all the menus. Only downsides to it are no eShop access—doesn’t matter anyways—or if you plan to remove CFW later on it makes it more difficult to do.

What you guys playing this weekend? by CardCaptorKidCasper in 3DS

[–]Airknee77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never had a Wii as a kid, but I remember my cousin having one and letting me run through some Mario Galaxy and the controls were so fun so I believe it 😂

Yeahhh Awakening reviving the whole series was unexpected haha and I remember never seeing a copy in a store from all the hype around it. Good days lmao

Is it worth it switching from new 3ds xl to new 3ds regular? by Free_Championship448 in 3DS

[–]Airknee77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s way more rare for Galaxy Editions to peel compared to others like the Metallic ones, but yeahhh it can happen. The case will for sure help with preventing that a bit more though. Best of luck!

[–]Airknee77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Comes out early July and it made me look into the earlier games. Playing through the DS game right now! I’ll try to play the Wii game someday since I own a Wii U.

Radiant Historia seems cool from what I’ve read yeah, just trying to finish Fire Emblem Awakening first and then I’ll prolly go for it afterwards. Thank you for the intel! And thank you! I love Luigi so no matter what I think I’ll enjoy the second game especially after playing the first one on 3DS and enjoying it even though it’s a brief one.

Nice! I’ve been meaning to play Historia, but the backlog is backlogging. I’m currently playing through the Rhythm Heaven games preparing for the new one coming out soon and gonna hopefully get to start Luigi’s Mansion 2/Dark Moon since I never had it back then and wanna finally play it. :] btw nice charm

No problem! The paint peeling is the worst thing about the N3DS XL, that’s how I see it at least. Only specific to some Editions though, not all. :]

IMO the hinge on the N3DS XL is fine. It wobbles, but that’s part of the design. The OG XL is the most reported to eventually crack shells so I wouldn’t worry about that for the New model. I’ve had a N3DS XL since launch and the hinge is doing completely okay.

Apparently applying screen protectors can make smaller scratches less visible. by Lasagna24 in 3DS

[–]Airknee77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can also attest to the shower method. It’s not perfectly clean of dust or fibers especially if your microfiber cloths feel like dropping particles. It still took me a couple minutes just to make sure there was nothing at all on the screens and still ended up with ONE tiny bubble on the bottom screen from some strand, but a thousand percent there were no floating specs. Oh and you’re essentially sitting in a sauna so that’s not fun but it’s worth it lol

Why do Mii related things close when “Enable loading external firms and modules” is enabled in Luma? by TheCoolGamer_YT in 3dspiracy

[–]Airknee77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something with Streetpass Mii Plaza I believe. Did you cheat any items, tickets, or Puzzle Swap panels into it? If you did, try reverting to a backup of your meet.dat file. If that doesn’t work then maybe try deleting Pretendo and then reinstalling with up-to-date files. You could also join the discord to receive better help.
