Just gave it a quick search and was shocked to find almost no offerings and ridiculous prices for these penny goods. → 🤦‍♀️
They used to be readily available for pennies. (Didn't search aliexpress since I don't use it and it doesn't work in my browser anyway).

To see the differences between "new" series 3DS and old series, have a look here:

Can't it ne replaced with USB type C or micro USB ?
Some people did that. Of course one can retrofit some generic socket.
More work and requires skill. When searching for the port a few hours ago I was involuntarily confronted with videos (didn't watch: no interest) having something like "USB-C port" on 3DS as title.

Worth noting that nominal USB voltage is 5.0V while nominal DSi charger voltage is 4.6V.
