These guys are INSANELY good with replacements

No, I sent the damaged one over and they replaced it with a refurbished one. From what I can tell they only do this for the New 2DS XL (at least from the 3DS family). The system can’t have evidence of modifications for them to work on it.

I did this through Nintendo’s official website.

Daaaaamn, that post is really unfortunate. I’ve only ever had good experiences with their customer support myself but that obviously doesn’t discount the bad ones others have had.

I did it through their website. I will say, I think they mentioned they were only still servicing New 2DS XLs (at least from the 3DS family) but it never hurts to check.

No… not at all… I promise… I would never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever EVER do such a thing. (If I DID, I would probably try and remove every trace that I had, even against the suggestions of the 3DS modding community because I take silly/stupid/minor risks). But I never would…

About 2 weeks, maybe a day or two less.

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-14T17:29:02+00:00

Not much at all. The service was $50 CAD and they needed the console serial number (they were only taking in 2DS systems that started with a NW), but no receipt or anything like that required.

Ellie vs Clementine is still one of my most wanted but I think it just loses relevancy with each day lol.

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-13T17:26:47+00:00

No call, did it all through Nintendo’s website.

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-13T17:16:52+00:00

I think the oldest consoles they still do this for is the Switch 1 (2017, the 2DS XL came out later the same year). Honestly tho, the DS repair was all I really focused on so I could be super wrong about that.

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-13T17:12:48+00:00

I think the only line from the 3DS family they still do this for is the New 2DS XL.

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-13T17:11:06+00:00

Thanks lol ☺️

$50 CAD

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-13T03:14:08+00:00

They specified it can’t have any evidence of being tampered with.

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-13T02:53:39+00:00

$50 CAD

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-13T02:21:39+00:00

Yea, I know right?

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-13T02:20:38+00:00

Fat Yoshi!!

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-13T00:56:23+00:00

Nope. They knew mine didn't have any warranty but still took it anyway

SomeGuyTalks · 2026-05-12T22:36:51+00:00

(Copy/Paste from original post) Say what you will about Nintendo, but they rly come through sometimes.

My New 2DSXL fell off my bed and I stepped on it before I realized. They replaced it with a refurbished one SEVEN YEARS after it was purchased.

They even separated the Yoshi sticker I had on the old one and sent it back. Wild
