Jesus the blowing really worked. I was about to buy a left and right shoulder cables for my new 3ds xl because my L and R buttons were messing up with me while playing fantasy life for 120 hrs. You saved me man. Thanks. I hope you got other videos for new 3ds xl and 3ds xl fix videos. You got a new subscriber here.
onceEPIC i blowed on it and it worked for about a day and now it’s not working at all I even blowed in it again to work but it’s not do you have any advice please can you help
Man, I got my 3ds 2 months ago with this problem, I thought I would deal with it but they got really unresponsive. The trick with the blowing helped. Thank you so much!
Excellent guide thank you. I was told that my daughter’s 3ds XL Left shoulder button was broken so I took it apart as per your video, cleaned it and bingo! Fixed 🥳 Super helpful 👍
My r button on my new Nintendo 3ds xl is unresponsive because of overuse and of years of pressing hard on it and also it’s squishy now too do you have a fix for that?
These old 3DS XL models have really screwy shoulder buttons. I figured a piece of the mechanism was stuck and I gave it a few good hard smacks directly on top of it. Surprisingly that worked, but I think it's a sign that it's time for an upgrade lol
Blowing on the R Button on New 3DS XL Worked. Time to play Smash Bros without problems Also forgot to mention I haven't used my 3DS for 9 Months now and I noticed it was collecting too much dust so I blew & it work again *Thank You for Your Time.*
Ive been suffering for having messy shoulder buttons on my new 3ds xl while playing fantasy life for 120 hrs and counting and after blowing on it my life became a fantasy. It was weird and satisfying at the same time.
This works with all 3ds imho. I got a messy L and R shoulders on my new 3ds xl and blowing on it did work. Ive played fantasy life for 120 hrs and counting creator level and having a messy shoulder buttons is a chore. I've never seen or heard that you can fix things by blowing stuff on a nintendo 3ds console until this video. What a life saver. I suppose nintendo engineers did that intentionally. Who knows.
Thanks in advance with this I could actively play Minecraft again. Before this I could only move and look around , but I couldn't really attack or interact with anything
I've also got a 2ds xl... its mostly fine, but my L button is starting to show some small signs of lack of input issues.... this is currently stressing the crud out of me, and am just worried now.. the reason I didn't bother blowing in there is because I have a ds light ALSO with very, very bad L and R response issues... know what I used to do to make them work? I... BLEW in them... a lot.. it would fix the issue, though, temporarily... with the passing of time, it only got worse and worse over time. . . and Now they barley work anymore... later, I found out that the moister in Your breath can wreck havoc in the ds lites ports(this is also the same problem early on cartridges in the nes/snes/N64 era also had)and Now am just afraid to go around and start blowing in there due to the fact it'll be repeated history. . . am gonna also post this up top and see if anyone can help me..
Is this the fix I need? My New Nintendo 3DS's shoulder buttons work but now my ZR button is temperamental. Can (not always) take just under a second to respond!
Hey sorry bud. It's been years since I posted this fix. My issue potentially could be different to yours but it wouldn't hurt just trying the fix on your 3ds also
2:29 Hello onceEpic! I tried to use with the screwdriver to take off the left one, but it won’t pull off. I was able to take off the right one, and it actually worked. I ordered E.Durable Nintendo Screwdriver on Amazon. Can you help me how i can do it, please? I hope you are seeing this message and respond to it!
I don't know if anyone still plays this game. But whenever I play Kid Icarus uprising one of the main action buttons is the L-Button. So after an hour of playing the L button got stuck. Almost like it's constantly pushed down causing Pit to constantly shoot rather than slash attack. So I don't know if it's because of the game or if its a button problem but it happens every time I played that old game. Does anybody else happened to have this problem?
uh hi, I've got a 2ds xl here, and there's NO other video talking about the L or R buttons for this 3ds model type, so am sort of hopeful that maybe You could help provide at least some suggestions that might help with what am going through. the 2ds xl is mostly fine, but my L button is starting to show some small signs of lack of input issues.... this is currently stressing the crud out of me, and am just worried now.. the reason I didn't bother blowing in there is because I have a ds light ALSO with very, very bad L and R response issues... know what I used to do to make them work? I... BLEW in them... a lot.. it would fix the issue, though, temporarily... with the passing of time, it only got worse and worse over time. . . and Now they barley work anymore... later, I found out that the moister in Your breath can wreck havoc in the ds lites ports(this is also the same problem early on cartridges(and the consoles themselves)in the nes/snes/N64 era also had)and Now am just afraid to go around and start blowing in there due to the fact it'll be repeated history. . . I thought I should mention this, since in Your video, You've stated this as a fix on an older model of a 3ds unit type. there was also someone else here on Your vid that posted about how the blowing thing actually worked for them on they're 2ds xl, but am afraid that he/she may not have been very aware of possible damage they may have been doing to they're system... am also aware that designs from system to system tend to improve(or sometimes even get worse)or just basically something always changes with each console making each system and how You should treat the bugs and or issues unique.... I just wanted to run all of this by You just in case. at the end of the day... if You or anyone don't respond... am gonna try blowing in them but... am low on resources and the internet isn't helping me sort any of these issues out... and it would be great if someone could give me a bit of closure on this. . . .
not sure but, those screws will have to come out either way for you to continue. You either have to put more pressure to get the screws out or less pressure so u dont damage the screw holes.
yes, if you apply too much pressure you might damage it by changing the shape of the screw hole. Double check you havent done that. Coz if you have you might not be able to get it out. The grooves of the screw hole are very important, make sure not to damage it.
only thing i can think of IF you cant get it out, if perhaps you have managed to get it out a little, you could use pliers to slowly turn it. Otherwise not much you can do at this point if the groove of the screw hole.
+SharpShooter425 _ sorry dude I don't have the new 3ds xl. But since there is not much change from 3dsxl to the NEW 3DS XL. it should be something similar.
+SharpShooter425 _ also for mine I just opened it and explored a bit. But if you are going to dismantle. Make sure u place each item out carefully so you can at least work backwards if ur not sure of something. That's what I did.
i have a different problem. when i was playing smash bros, my character just kept sheilding even tho i ddnt press anything, and its the right shoulder button. its clicking, but it just, idk its always in use. and the light for streetpass is on but feint and is just randomly on even tho i have nothing streetpass related. i think its cuz i got a little water on it because i put it in a bag with a water bottle and a little part of the shell was already chipped off so the water may have gone thru it. its in a bag with rice right now but idk if itll solve the problem.
My L button broke for some reason,never use it,never had,but as soon as I get smash it just fucking dies,I would take it apart but some of the screws are shaved,what should I do?
+onceEPIC what about any other problems because i have lot of problems error code number is not my wifi and my C stick i not working 100% on my NEW 3DS XL any tip
+JJMRA 77777 that's quite serious dude. Where ever u got it from and if u say it's NEW it should still b under warranty if u got it via retail. I suggest getting a new one or repaired. It doesn't quite sound new to me if there are so many problems.
+NJgamer damn.. If u check the description there is a link to Amazon to purchase and or replace the cables. Damn there's no thumbs down option. Had to go with thumbs up.
Seriously, what the eff is it with NDS units and the shoulder buttons being absolute trash? I've had issues with them all the way back. Actually, even my GBA SP shoulder buttons died
LMAFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE BLOWING ACTUALLY WORKED Unbelievable, thank you very much my guy
Jesus the blowing really worked. I was about to buy a left and right shoulder cables for my new 3ds xl because my L and R buttons were messing up with me while playing fantasy life for 120 hrs.

i have an old 3ds and the video wasnt really directed toward my model but that little comment at the beggining helped
Holy cow the blowing thing worked, idk about it's longevity tho, seems like a "so we're not sued" fix over a permanent fix
Excellent guide thank you. I was told that my daughter’s 3ds XL Left shoulder button was broken so I took it apart as per your video, cleaned it and bingo! Fixed 🥳 Super helpful 👍
Hope that's what my DS lite needs!
Thank you so much, I bought a 3ds xl and a shoulder button wasn't working and it was a lose connection like you said. Got it really cheap also 😁

HOLY SHIT DUDE! That blow tip seriously helped me out! Saved me $20. 3ds XL BTW.
These old 3DS XL models have really screwy shoulder buttons. I figured a piece of the mechanism was stuck and I gave it a few good hard smacks directly on top of it. Surprisingly that worked, but I think it's a sign that it's time for an upgrade lol

let's go, now i can spend countless hours soft reseting for shiny pokemon that i will inevitably fail
I searched how to swap out the shoulder bottons on a 3ds. Can’t say I’m disappointed!
thats a nice and pretty precise comment u have there, thank you.
Thanks in advance with this I could actively play Minecraft again. Before this I could only move and look around , but I couldn't really attack or interact with anything
Mine is a new version btw

This is Bullshit, the blowing didnt work... might as well break my 2ds xl.
Do it
Is this the fix I need? My New Nintendo 3DS's shoulder buttons work but now my ZR button is temperamental. Can (not always) take just under a second to respond!
Hey sorry bud. It's been years since I posted this fix. My issue potentially could be different to yours but it wouldn't hurt just trying the fix on your 3ds also
My "A" button stopped working after I updated it to 11.5...
Would this work with N3DSXL? My R button doesn’t work and the blowing method does nothing.
if it doesnt work, unfortunately its a no go
I have a 2Ds xl and it’s broken because of water damage....can it be fixed??? The left bubbler either doesn’t work or takes a while to responde
Dam mario kart 7 and those freaking drifts
2:29 Hello onceEpic! I tried to use with the screwdriver to take off the left one, but it won’t pull off. I was able to take off the right one, and it actually worked. I ordered E.Durable Nintendo Screwdriver on Amazon. Can you help me how i can do it, please? I hope you are seeing this message and respond to it!
Does this work on normal 3ds not 3ds XL
normal 3DS i dont know as i did this for a 3ds XL

BRUH I HAVE A 2DS XL TOO AND IN TRYING TOO AND I'M HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM UGH I'M SO MAd
what do you do when one of the 2 screws that had the rubber over them doesn't unscrew?
not sure but, those screws will have to come out either way for you to continue.
You either have to put more pressure to get the screws out or less pressure so u dont damage the screw holes.
so uhh... you can damage the screw holes?
yes, if you apply too much pressure you might damage it by changing the shape of the screw hole.
Double check you havent done that. Coz if you have you might not be able to get it out.
The grooves of the screw hole are very important, make sure not to damage it.
yep... the screw just has a hole in it...
only thing i can think of IF you cant get it out, if perhaps you have managed to get it out a little, you could use pliers to slowly turn it.
Otherwise not much you can do at this point if the groove of the screw hole.
Mine's just got the Left bad
IDK what's wrong with mine so I am going to add new parts I'll be easier
What size screw driver do i need
my l and r buttons wouldn't work for smash on my old 3ds the blow thing worked perfectly and I can sheild and grab again :D
+onceEPIC Could you possibly do this on the new 3ds XL? I have the new one and the buttons are very loose out of use and are now not responding.
+SharpShooter425 _ sorry dude I don't have the new 3ds xl. But since there is not much change from 3dsxl to the NEW 3DS XL. it should be something similar.
