Hello, my n3ds xl's battery is almost dead and I want to change it but there is no Nintendo service in the country I live and nobody sells it. I only found battery for 3DS that is 3.7v 2000mah. Can I use it on my n3ds xl? Can I buy another li-on battery that can fit on my device? Or you have any advice for me?

That capacity (2000mAh) is not plausible for the size of a CTR-003 replacement. That looks like false advertising – which is sadly very common for third-party batteries. Look at TurdPooCharger's signature for some links to aftermarket batteries.

The CTR-003 is too small for the XL variants of the 3DS anyway. You will need to find a replacement for the SPR-003

Good luck!

:unsure:
You right. Turkey gets shafted in terms of buying international retail goods. Almost all of the SPR-003 batteries listed on Aliexpress and eBay excludes your country.

Edit - Although not recommended, but if you have no other choice, it is possible to fit the smaller CTR-003 battery in the (o/n)3DSXL.

This one is questionable as it looks like a de-labelled official Nintendo battery, but it does ship to Turkey.
