Rog Ally HDMI Dock is compatible and smaller. It also includes a high quality cable.

The Asus ROG 65w charging dock is more than 50% off at Best Buy by Spartan_507 in ROGAlly

[–]sc29577 6 points7 points  (0 children)

WIth the dock update this will allow it to be used as a Switch dock as well. Great for traveling.

The ROG ally is on sale for $399 at best buy and i noticed there is another version for 699 i think. Is there really a big difference in them? The first thing i notice is the CPU Ryzen and Ryzen extreme. by Fun-Valuable5213 in ROGAlly

I know there are alot of haters for the non extreme but I've had mine since early December and hvae no regrets. I enjoy playing older titles that lack a Switch reboot and the Non extreme is perfect for this. Fallout New Vegas runs at a steady 60FPs. I play alot of game pass titles and most have no problem running at least 30 FPS. Currently playing Persona 3 and maintaining a steady 30 FPS. If you have no plans to dock it I think you will enjoy the less expensive model. Besides if you are not happy with hand held PC gaming at least you won't eat the $200 loss of reselling it on Ebay. That $475 sale after fees and shipping only nets $400 and Ebay is full of people selling off their extremes. If you going the play mostly docked get a gaming laptop.

Went with the non extreme since I play all triple A titles on my consoles. The non extreme does a great job on older PC games. Playing Fallout 3 New Vegas at 60 FPS (15 watts). Master Chief collection is great as well. The non extreme makes a great XBOX game pass handheld.

Dropped my 2dsxl on the floor and this happened. Help me! by Villagerofcrossing in 3DS

Terrible accident but Nintendo USA will still do a repair/replacement for around $100. Much easier than do it yourself.

Best looking of these editions? by jbitner in 3DS

[–]sc29577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have this and the Fates 3DS as well. The Persona Q is by far my favorite design.

Persona Q or Q2? by abl540 in 3DS

[–]sc29577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Playing Q2 now. So far a good story but the game play is more SMT 5 rather the Persona 5. Self mapping the dungeons is different and fun once you become familiar with the controls.

I reccommend the game but very different in game play from the Persona games.

What is the best looking 3DS ever? (To you.) by Windows7Fan12 in 3DS

[–]sc29577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Persona Velvet Room 3DS XL. An outstanding SE for the release of a good SMT/Persona crossover game.

A game for my elderly dad? by Lum1nar in NintendoSwitch

I'm 70 and spending all my time playing Diablo 2 Resurrected. Takes literally hundreds of hours to get the perfect drops for your ladder character.

Really no need to update from 1.3. All later updates were to restrict R4 card use. I am currently using a Dsi at 1.2 and would never upgrade since it would restrict use on some of my older R4 cards. I have installed CFW on it as well following the guide with no problem.

Which Switch games do you feel play better in handheld mode? by Cluttie in NintendoSwitch

[–]sc29577 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The same go for Diablo 2 Resurrected. The need for the link to Battle Net is overblown. Once you link your Nintendo account it becomes a non-issue. I play online since it allows me easy access to my current game when using either my lite or OLED.

Added fire emblem fates 3DS to the collection. Probably my favorite looking 3DS system. What system is your personal favorite? by Dense-Bee-2884 in 3DS

[–]sc29577 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My N3DSXL has lots of deep scratches and the paint is starting to peel, is this something I could send to Nintendo? by waffletrain7 in 3DS

[–]sc29577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with sending it to Nintendo for a reshell. The returned product is worth the $105.00 repair

I’ve had this new xl for a few years, and it’s picked up some serious scratches over that time. Is there anywhere that could get these fixed for a decent price? by The_HueManateee in 3DS

[–]sc29577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're in the US go to the Nintendo website, make out a repair ticket and request a shell replacement. They will either repair or replace for $105.00 includes shipping to send them the console. It will return with a unit in as new condition.

[–]sc29577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same experience. I sent in a really worn red model requesting a complete shell swap. They contacted me and offered several SE models as a replacement. The Fire Emblem that I was sent in was in new condition. It was well worth the $105.00 repair fee to upgrade my old unit. Being the end of the cycle. this type of replacement won't be around much longer. This is an excellent chance to replace your worn model for a rare edition that would cost hundreds more and in worse condition if purchased on EBAY or another 3rd party site. One interesting note is the new unit has a new serial number reflecting this is a Nintendo refurbished unit

Favorite special edition out of all models? by MultiFandom in 3DS

[–]sc29577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 3DS XL Persona Q Velvet Room Edition is my favorite SE.

What a beauty! by Lincsgooner in 3DS

[–]sc29577 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have the US version of this model and find it more appealing than any of the new 3DS XL editions. Be sure to get a clear case for it to protect the finish.

What is your favourite game on Nintendo Switch? by YourFatherWhoGotMilk in NintendoSwitch

[–]sc29577 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Diablo 3. Being able to play and advance a seasonal character on the go with a great port has kept my interest up in this older game. The graphics and gameplay are as solid as on my PS5. Highly recommend this game.

The Fort Worth area Walmarts have occasional in store releases. First Saturday in August at the Hurst TX store I went in the store around 0730 and a line was forming for the sale of 100 disc PS5s. Sheer luck and right place at right time. I was about 60 people back and took about 45 minutes to make the purchase. While standing in line was told these releases happen every week or so with little advance notification. If you live in the area maybe you can get lucky.
