Yes but getting the springs back into place when you have to reassemble it is a bitch and if one trigger stops working you have to desolder it which can be tricky especially cus the solder on those things is so old. I’ve replaced a trigger button on a Gameboy sp before and if you get the board too hot the little membranes on the a and b buttons and the d pad fall off and don’t work right. With the 3ds is one goes out it’s just about ordering the part and replacing it.
Videos like this is what got me over my fear of breaking something and fixing my own electronics. Thankfully I’ve only had to fix controllers and take the case off a Wii U to fix a sticky eject button. Not quite ready to disassemble a 3DS. Probably will clean my game boy colour first
Welp, there goes that idea for changing the plates or taking this puppy apart to paint it...this scared me. I got mine for $50 off FB marketplace back in 2019 in great condition, a tiny little smudge or scuff on the front and back you can only see in the right lighting. It's a plain black one but I've always loved White consoles and systems in general, just looks so sleek to me, but apparently Japan thinks we just want color or black and reserves the white consoles for them only. I might just get one day and mod it. I'd love a 3DS XL in white, so that's my goal. It's hard finding people who show you how they have painted theirs, and in my search found this one and it told me everything I needed to know, and that's...I'd rather pay extra for a special 3DS XL than to take it apart myself, possibly break it, and I also really suck at spray painting in general so yeah...nope!
does anyone know if my screen can me fixed? the problem is that when I write on the middle it kinda starts to write on the left side of the screen why does this happen?
I got a 3ds xl a case for it and 5 games on Facebook marketplace (from the same person btw didn't buy the stuff separately) for £80 which is $102.42 much better value in my opinion
Hmm if your not familiar with how to do it it can be difficult especially if it’ll be ur first time taking one apart and if you don’t do repairs like this. Watch several videos if you plan on doing this or at least one that’s detailed in taking it apart.
will this work on a water damaged screen? I have my old 3ds and it got water damaged but the blue light still turns on. I think I can try and replace the screen and fix this though
If you aren't sure it's just screen damage, it's a gamble. You might replace it and everything works, or you replace it and nothing changes except the amount of money in your bank account.
I have an issue top screen won't show an image on same model. Wondering if it's a broken cable or to get an entirely new screen. The top screen takes awhile to get to so it's been on the back burner until I figure out what to do
Hello, please, could you help me? I don't understand how Streetpass work. Do I have to have the Streetpass software opened, or like going to the home menu but not closing it? Or can I close it? Also, do I have to be connected to a WIFI network or WIFI hot-spot? Or do I only have to have the WIFI switched on, but I don't have to have it actually connect to a WIFI? Or do I have to switch off the WIFI? Please, answer!
As long as your 3DS is switched on and in sleep mode it will streetpass with other 3DS consoles who are also switched on and in sleep mode. You don't need to have streetpass open or have a WiFi connection for it to transfer the streetpass data. Also make sure you have streetpass enabled in the streetpass mii plaza settings as well because it's possible to turn the feature off but if you want it on then make sure it's on in streetpass settings. Streetpass may sometimes work even if your console is open and you're playing games but not always so it's typically good to have the console closed in sleep mode if you're looking for the streetpasses. The one exception is that if your 3DS is currently playing a DS game then it will not get streetpasses even if it's closed because the 3DS will go into DS mode while playing a DS game which stops most 3DS functions from running during it. But if you just have a DS cartridge inserted and aren't playing it then it will still streetpass.

Can I Repair a Thrifted Nintendo 3DS?
ua-cam.com/video/utBPiJq46J4/v-deo.html
How many times did you have to do this to be able to be comfortable to do so? I’m always nervous opening up anything with ribbon cables.
Never knew you're a Dragon Ball fan
60$? I got mine from the flea market from an old guy for 3$.
Steal of a deal
freaking W right there! was it in good condition?
Woah careful it might have "side package"
Same, i got a new 3ds XL in great condition for 20€ (in Italy)
@@pilobelo325Dove l’hai trovato?
It makes me sad that the 3DS is so old it is now considered something you get at the thrift store. Time really flies.
$60 for a broken 3DS?
Who sold you that, DK Oldies?!
Unfortunately that is the price of most broken ones on eBay aswell
Cool work man! I can't stand working with ribbon cables.
3ds ribbon cables are hell, they're the only ribbon cables I've ever struggled with
@@KingVulpesPS4 controller ribbon cables are annoying as well
$60 bucks AND a broken screen!? Geesh
They cost 300€ new
Nintendo made each successive gen of handheld more complicated. The DS had the trigger switches on board, not attached by ribbon cable.

These videos give my clumsy ass the false hope I could do this one day lol

Imagine following this whole tutorial only to realize you forgot to purchase the replacement bottom screen 😂
So we don’t need a heat-sourced tool for once
Touchscreen works the same way as it does for those systems, but Nintendo 3DS comes with an extending stylus, hello little stylus
Hello Mario
That music in the video… is from super monkey ball right ? I recognized it because it’s my childhood game.

Worst console to fix ngl, them ribbon cables are annoying
Terrible!
it looks like you just swapped out the digitizer and not the screen lens but idk
You’re already there
That's a cool blur! I wish that video would stop interrupting it.
bro got scammed and called it scoring
What can you do with the ones that have been replaced afterwards?
Yeet ‘em
what would happen if you put the touch digitizer upside down?
does anyone know if my screen can me fixed?
the problem is that when I write on the middle it kinda starts to write on the left side of the screen why does this happen?
Do you know how to remove the top screen?
such a pain doin the launch 3ds lol
i did mine twice
never again
Hi I would like to know if you can fix a 2ds Power Jack Input cause mine doesn’t work anymore.
it's the old 3ds so you'd have to be rough to scarcth the new 3ds scratches over z lil dust or just cause it feels like it
Oh boy i guess this is going to be more challenging then i thought it would be 😅
I have one but don't know where to got to mod it, I have 0 confidence on me trying and succeeding
I got a 3ds xl a case for it and 5 games on Facebook marketplace (from the same person btw didn't buy the stuff separately) for £80 which is $102.42 much better value in my opinion
What about the top screen my 3ds needs repairs and I don’t have a clue what to do
damage??? more like scratched
How difficult is a top screen repair?

You have a tutorial for a 3ds snapped in half? Cuz I need that 😭
bro what did you do 💀
i got my 2ds for 50 euros, i was like flabbergasted
I have an issue top screen won't show an image on same model. Wondering if it's a broken cable or to get an entirely new screen. The top screen takes awhile to get to so it's been on the back burner until I figure out what to do
Probably open up and check what's wrong, if so screens go for like 10 bucks.
The heck is that music
Does anyone know if he’ll do repairs for his subscribers?
Wow man, i try to connect bottom cable 1hr, how
Wow my yoshi 3DS XL is in worse condition than that.
I wish I was as talented as you
