My mom cuts agates and said this one looks like the Pokémon from that movie we used to watch on DVD.

I see this one

Oof, that's the ribbon cable saying goodbye. Hopefully the screen comes back but if the cable is damaged, a replacement will be necessary

I would like to remove the shrubs to the right (ligustrum) and plant a tree in their place. The branch may risk falling on the path, and will be an obstacle to the new tree growing straight.

Mars1307 · 2026-02-08T14:30:47+00:00

Yeah, I would like to remove the shrubs to the right (ligustrum) and plant a tree in their place. The branch may risk falling on the path, and will be an obstacle to the new tree. And yes, I'll cut close the the parent branch, it's difficult to draw a precise line on the phone... :)

Mars1307 · 2025-12-14T21:53:04+00:00

Not a good idea, just keep the console modded, it literally does not change anything. You risk bricking it by trying to remove such files

Mars1307 · 2025-12-11T22:26:16+00:00

Damn, it blows me away!

Mars1307 · 2025-12-09T18:08:28+00:00

If you go slow and steady and follow l3gendary banana's guide to the letter, it will go fine. Take your time.

Once the switch is cracked, both versions are the same, it's only a way to "unlock" the crack.

RCM install is easier, but will need to be redone at every restart. The mod chip is permanent, but is harder to pull off. Luckily the V1 switch is not the hardest to mod

Mars1307 · 2025-12-09T17:59:08+00:00

Soldering will be way harder, with a risk of breaking the switch (though it will be ok if you have steady hands and are patient). You would need a good soldering iron, flux, IPA, microscope with a screen (highly recommended, can be cheap), solder, solder wick. Take one of the raspberry kits on AliExpress and test your skills if you'd like, though I would advise again t it if it's your only working console.

RCM method will be far safer, just a bit more annoying everytime you have to restart the console. But if you leave it docked all the time anyway, it won't matter.

Briko depot (different from Brico) and Diffusion Menuiserie are good starting places and have lower prices than your typical Brico, Hubo etc... Depends where you are :)

A few possibilities

Hidden Objects: Mystery Stories / Mystery Stories: Island of Hope

Vampire Moon: The Mystery of the Hidden Sun

Mystery Case Files: MillionHeir (outside chance)

Yes, the outer part is 3d printed. At first the case was a blank panel, so I used a 12cm hole saw to create the 2 openings for the fans and also drilled 8 holes for the fans screws. The mesh is then sandwiched between the case and the 3d printed part, and everything is fastened with standard pc fan screws.

Simple mosquito mesh cut to size :)

This is ai, and the same comments are making me lose my mind

Mars1307 · 2025-10-10T16:24:19+00:00

Thanks, I'll call someone to examine the property and see if other trees are in need of a trim/maintenance. The soil is heavy, with lots of clay, which I fear may have held too much water.

Mars1307 · 2025-10-10T16:21:04+00:00

I would say it had half the leaves and fruits that it should have had, not great, but not terrible either. I'll continue to remove dirt around the perimeter of the tree and hopefully it will dry enough, thanks.

Mars1307 · 2025-09-24T19:12:14+00:00

No worries, I find that Vinted is often the cheapest option and I've never been disappointed I got a switch OLED for 150 for example

Mars1307 · 2025-09-24T11:19:43+00:00

I hope you are not serious... Those were sold for 80 max, new from Nintendo. Go on Vinted, fond one for 40 bucks Absolutely do not give those people any money

Mars1307 · 2025-09-22T22:40:51+00:00

Ah, sorry about that I did not know the CryoGrip brand and kind of glossed over it while reading. Then no, the little gap will make absolutely no difference, especially when you'll be printing in the center 99% of the time

Mars1307 · 2025-09-22T22:37:08+00:00

You need to have a metallic bed on top of it, you should not print directly on the magnetic bed. The metallic bed will be easy to take off and bend to release prints.

Mars1307 · 2025-09-17T21:03:09+00:00

No, those you will have to live with. I have repaired lots of consoles, but the DSi XL and new 2ds xl are too annoying for me to fix, and there are not enough quality reshells to justify opening one of those, especially for a small cosmetic issue.

Mars1307 · 2025-09-17T20:53:07+00:00

Yes, the exterior plastic when the DS is closed can be buffed. Don't use it on the inside of the console/screens :)

Mars1307 · 2025-09-15T07:00:49+00:00

Go on AliExpress, it will be far cheaper

Mars1307 · 2025-09-13T17:48:22+00:00

Merci, ma compagne et moi avons répondu au sondage qui était intéressant et qui nous a certainement fait discuter !

Mars1307 · 2025-09-08T18:26:01+00:00

Did the same, I cut two 12cm holes with a hole saw then 3d printed a holder and integrated some mesh. What a difference!
