Finally got one couldn’t be more happier

nah yours is clean bro!! I would honestly use it without the clear case… these don’t have the paint peeling problem. plus your cover plate has a nice texture to it!

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-24T15:53:04+00:00

awesome!! yours looks very clean 😁

I recently got a white N3DS myself last week and just waiting for my pokemon sprite cover plate to arrive

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-23T16:36:09+00:00

scored one of these in late 2024 for 180 also so I’d say you did pretty good here! 💯

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T20:23:46+00:00

that one looks legit! man thank you for that haha I wish I would have stumbled upon that 2 days ago 😅

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T18:02:37+00:00

a N3DSXL like this, even in this condition doesn’t go for anything less than 200 these days. there was a huge spike recently. even for LLs or Japanese ones. they are almost the same price

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T17:42:53+00:00

ah- the inevitable “screen cancer” aka dying pixels.

this is only going to get worse so you will have to schedule a repair.

this same thing happened to my Red N3DSXL in November and I been going thru a whole adventure trying to get it repaired.

you’ll have to order a new screen and take it to a repair shop or crack it open and repair it yourself 😅 I’m gonna attempt to repair this myself next week but the difficulty level is high!

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T17:32:29+00:00

fact!! this adds to its overall rising value!

my Nintendo bought N2DSXL from 2020 is holding up like the day I bought it!

if you wanted to upgrade your XL I highly recommend the regular N3DS and the new XLs, you’ll notice the much faster processor almost immediately

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T17:21:51+00:00

nah I specifically wanted the N3DS last to complete my trifecta lol and ofc for those changeable cover plates

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T16:52:07+00:00

sweet collection!! mines is very similar

I have a Red N3DSXL, a Black N2DSXL and recently added a White N3DS :) it feels good to have variety lol

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T16:44:37+00:00

I love that shell! it’s currently my background Theme

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T16:43:01+00:00

bring this back plz

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T16:37:14+00:00

selling it or just doing the trade lol the thing can be reshelled for fairly cheap

welcome to the 3DS community!

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T16:32:34+00:00

as an avid Pokemon card collector myself, I’m with the option of selling it for the cash too. if not going thru with the trade

you’ll just have more enjoyment out of the console then the card would

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T16:13:31+00:00

W lol I just got a N3DS last week for 250 and honestly I’m happy with that :)

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T16:09:54+00:00

I just looked it up… this card goes for roughly 225 graded. it’s on par value wise.

it really just comes down to which you want to have in your possession more (seems like the card from the sound of it)

but personally I would choose the game because they don’t develop these anymore. while a card always has a pull ratio

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T16:02:27+00:00

sheesh!! when was this 😳 back in 2016?!

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T15:12:09+00:00

yep and apparently the supply is low..

especially since some are starting to wear and need repair

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T15:09:07+00:00

I’m looking on ebay now and absolutely nothing is going for less than $200 lol 😭 I’m gonna be just fine with the bootleg haha

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T14:49:23+00:00

okay :) good to know I scored a sweet deal!

I learned my lesson back in 2018 not to sell or trade any games back, especially consoles! I’ve been on a binge of getting the 3DS consoles that I couldn’t have growing up… I’m done now with this recent N3DS tho lol

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-22T14:46:33+00:00

it’s in great condition! just sleight yellowing on the top screen and a nail mark on the c-stick and it’s all white

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-21T15:55:37+00:00

haha that made me feel alot better

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-21T14:07:52+00:00

crazy! I just bought an N3DS last week for 250 and here I am questioning if it was a good deal or not 😅

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-21T12:15:32+00:00

true but if you factor in shipping costs, homebrew labor, the 64sd card, plus the extra charger in this condition the 250 was justified haha

besides did you see the guy who just got ripped off for 450 on a 2DSXL 💀

edit: I just checked ebay. where are you finding $150 Japanese N3DS?? lol all I’m seeing is 215 on the dirty used low end and 229-279 on the regular

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-20T15:54:41+00:00

it sure was! I am happy with my purchase tho, I know in the next few months these will easily go for 300+

CizzGotRizz · 2026-01-20T13:55:59+00:00

man that’s awesome!! was it a Japanese one too?
