So I'm selling my switch oled and someone asked me for the serial number.
Are there reasons why I shouldnt or can I safely tell him?
Thanks in advance

Never give out the whole serial number. Telling them the first few digits won't do any harm, but as above there's no actual point because the reason for checking serial numbers for hackability only applies to V1 Switches and not OLED.

They most likely want to see if it is unpatched.

Give em the first few digits.
That should suffice


wait. I'm stupid.
OLEDs are all patched...

Don't give em the serial.
I also assumped that he asked for cfw but if it were hackable w/o soldering a chip, I would keep it myself :P

Anyway told him that if he's asking because of cfw that it would pointless anyway.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
