Nintendo 3DS XL Handheld System - Black/Blue (Renewed) [Nintendo DS]

I have ordered a Refurbished - Excellent: Nintendo New Galaxy 3DS XL. Through Amazon's shipping, I received this beautiful New Galaxy 3ds xl early! The system had everything with it to get started as I was provided with a charger with the system listing I had chosen through CaveGamers, and it did have the stylus. I've thoroughly inspected the New 3ds xl exterior and interior. The exterior barely any cosmetic wear whatsoever! There's not much that could've been concerning. There was maybe one or two surface level scratches on the top and bottom of the case, but you have to go out of your way to notice or feel them. No chips in the paint and I like how the Galaxy shines! As for the inside of the system, it's also in excellent condition. I tried out all of the buttons and they felt snappy as they should. There wasn't any damage or scratches on the screens or other cosmetic damage that I was able to tell. All that I needed to do was let the system charge as it was dead on arrival. I ordered a replacement battery as I know these systems and their batteries are starting to reach their end cycle. The battery currently in the system looked fine but was barely bloating so I'm upgrading with a new regardless. Either way, the new 3ds xl turned on after getting the battery to full. I was welcomed to the setup screen. The screens were working as intended too, with no dead pixels and the 3D with its tracking is reliable. Overall, the system looked like it was barely used! While I used to have the old 3DS in Red as a kid, this feels so far as a great upgrade! I am impressed with what I received and feel this is what I would've expected. I'm going to relive my childhood!

finally received my order I ordered the OK status for refurbished so I expected a couple issues. A bunch of screws are actually missing completely backpay. Only stays on with the screws the parts that are supposed to clip in on the sides do not battery came critically low with no charger. System was pre-modified advertised as a North American region with the whole XL on the case as well as in the product name device was actually a modded region swapped Japanese console to make it look like a North American console the Japanese console is the LL so if you need to do things that involve the E shop just know there’s a chance you will get a region swapped console which will not have access to the E shop stuff. Obviously E shop is shut down now, but you can still re-download software that you’ve downloaded before and update software if there’s updates product was advertised falsely by advertising it as the Excel version which is North America when an actuality was Japanese version LL. The part that is frustrating is the Japanese version is about 50% cheaper than the North American version so I paid North American price for Japanese.

I usually am worried about buying used consoles, especially online. But I was not disappointed when I bought this!🙂 I got the white 3ds xl and the touch screen, buttons, 3d effect, and everything work as it should. There are only tiny scratches around the corners, but it was expected and honestly isn’t that noticeable unless you really look up close. The screen itself has not a single scratch. Also, once I got the console out of the box I noticed it was the Japanese 3ds ll, thinking I was getting the regular 3ds xl. It made me really worried if it was region locked, but all my games work and that’s the only thing I care about lol. Overall, I definitely think it was worth the money! I grew up mostly playing regular ds games on my dsi xl, so I am excited to play games I missed out on🥰

I love it, but for what I paid and the description ("refurbished-excellent") I expected nothing to be functionally wrong with it. I had to get a new battery (no problem, they're like $10), and might have to replace the touch screen since it loses touch and makes me drop things frequently. Otherwise it runs games fine and does everything else you'd expect. With the new battery it also no longer dies overnight, so that's good.

I usually don't write reviews, but as someone who is extremely late to the game on getting a New Nintendo 3DS XL I felt I should write something. I am pretty picky when it comes to buying used anything, and would always spend a lot more if it meant i could have brand new, but it seems it is impossible to get those anymore since they were discontinued a long time ago. After looking all over i decided to take a chance on this refurbished and i must say im extremely impressed. Pulling it out of the box, it came packaged well and it came with the manual and AR cards. No AC charger, but that was always the case with these as far as i understand it. I think you can get one for $5 anyways, so no big deal. My biggest concern before purchasing was appearance and functional parts, and this excelled at both of those things. I found microscopic abrasions on the outside casing, but you wouldn't notice unless you put a bright light and magnifying glass on it. So overall, very happy with the condition of the unit. Second, i was hoping that all internals would be functional. It successfully connected to the internet, data transfer, etc. Camera works, 3D stabilization works, auto brightness adjustment too. Battery was charged to 50% when i got it. In conclusion, if you are like me, take comfort in knowing this is easily the best option option if you are in the market for one of these in 2020.

Ordered as a "Renewed" for "Excellent" condition. While the overall condition of the console was fairly good, there are quite a few issues and flaws. 1. As others have stated, the shell is 3rd party reshell, and doesn't exactly fit great. While the shell itself is likely new and looks nice, and was covered with a plastic adhesive film to protect it, the fitment is a bit off in places like edges and corners. Also, the power button doesn't stick thru far enough. 2. The hinge for top screen works and holds in place, but the "click" of it feels really gross and like something is wrong or going to break. 3. The battery did come fully charged, and the console powered on right away. It is the default 1750mah battery capacity. 4. It did come with a 4GB microsd card. The contacts looked scratched - I replaced that immediately with a 32gb microsdhc. 5. I received no charger with this unit. 6. As others have stated, the 3D feature of this console does not work at all, and cannot be calibrated. It's just completely blurry and does not work correctly. 7. The upper and lower screens both seem to be in good condition. They were clean, but the touch input on the bottom screen needed calibrated, as it was off. The top screen had some flecks of debris, and there is even a black speck stuck under the screen in one area, or it's a dead pixel. I have not taken it apart to check for fear of damaging it further. 8. I was able to reset the system to factory defaults and get the country region corrected (originally was Anguilla, set it to U.S. with no issues). I have been able to play my physical Pokémon games on it without issue. I was also able to setup an account for the eShop and get updates for the games, even though the eShop is closed down now by Nintendo. Overall, I suppose I'll be keeping the console, as I really just needed it to play Pokémon games with my kid and be able to trade with each other. However, I feel this console is excessively overpriced with the quality issues mentioned above. I could fix most or all of it, but then I'm looking at putting more money into it than I already have. Having experienced this all myself, and seeing all the other reviews where people have had excessive issues, I would strongly caution to reconsider purchase from this seller. Too many quality issues. If you're looking to get a 3DS that is just simply able to play your physical games and is not in "Excellent" condition that you paid extra money for, then take a risk and buy one of these.

Overall it was okay. Positives: - Works Correctly - Visually in good order, very minor scratches/scuffs - Pretty clean for being pre-owned refurbished Negatives: - For whatever reason US nor Canada were an available option for Region when doing the initial setup, don't really know why since it's definitely not region locked (I tested with a game) - Did not come with a charger for the handheld - Did not come with the actual box for the console like the one that is pictured in the photos - The cost for this just doesn't really match my expectations of what I got, if it was just going to be the console without a charger and without the original stylus I honestly should have spent the same amount of money or more to get it CIB on eBay... So overall take some time to do more research if you are looking for something to scratch your "retro" itch or 3DS itch. I think the increase in these handheld's age will only increase their price so if you do want something right here and now this is not a bad choice but just do some due diligence and maybe check out some physical stores.

For one, this console is NOT in "Good" condition, as stated. It has scratches all over the screen, the screens are yellowing, and most importantly the console is Region Locked. Which means that unless I mod the system, it's literally unusable with North American games, which is kinda the whole point! There's no way the seller wasn't aware of this.

Llegó funcional y con todo. Pero el cargador entregado es genérico. La parte de arriba llegó muy rallada y el precio muy alto para lo que entregan.

Simplemente se ve nuevo y se siente nuevo, llevo más de un mes jugando desde que llegó y no ha tenido o sufrido algo desperfecto, súper recomendable y buen precio para ser un artículo que lleva tiempo discontinuado, trae todo, el cargador es de los genéricos pero se agradece.

Me encantó, funciona perfecto

El producto que llegó está defectuoso, no funciona ni el efecto 3D ni el botón R

Excelente estado, tal cuál se mostraba en la publicación, recomendado
