Hey, I've been looking at getting a 3DS capture card lately, I was wondering if anybody from GBATemp had one and could give me their thoughts on the whole process. I'm looking for somewhere in Europe preferably. Just hoping to get some peoples overall experiences. What firmware it was on. Mines still on 4.5 and I'm also quite worried If i did find somewhere they'd update it whether intentional or not.

Let me know, Thanks.

I don't know how to catch these 3DS Capture Card because after emailed to manufacturer's shop it seems they don't sold their product only.
Need to send your console to them in Japan or buy a new console + Capture system already installed.

If somebody knows how to buy Capture Card product only, this information will interest many members. :)

Keity's store in Japan does offer the standalone capture card (console not included) for various 3DS models, and their blog includes installation instructions. I personally have not tried this before and cannot verify their quality.

Merki appears to be a 3DS capture card seller in Europe, although these are a bit more expensive that Keity's. Again, sadly I can't give any personal experiences of using their wares.

In these both websites, no offer for single capture card. :sleep:
What do you mean by "single capture card"?
On peut acheter seulement le Capture Card sans the 3DS console avec Keity. Il envoie la carte de capture à vous mais vous installez la carte dans votre 3DS.
(Sorry if there are any grammatical errors, French is not my primary language)

They send you the card but you have to install it in your own 3DS.

Gambia, The
Loopy produces higher quality capture cards (only heard Katsukitys failing).
Merki is the european reseller/installer for Loopys capture cards.

Unfortunaly, there is only a capture card for the old 3ds (non XL). Another capture card for new 3ds XL should be released within the next 2 months. I'm waiting for it too.

I'd love a capcard too, but I just don't feel safe sending my hacked 3ds to someone else. I don't want them doing anything that might make me need a hardmod!

Where do you find the product page for this offer (buy Capture card only) ?

I've received email from Katsukity, they only offer installation kit or new console + kit installed :

Hello Infinitydream.com,


Thank you for your interest in our capture kits!


If you have a new 3DS/XL, we will install a capture board on your system. We will fully assemble the capture kits before shipping them. All you need to do is install the viewer software and the driver on your PC, and connect your capture kit to the PC with a mini USB cable. The instructions for the software will come with your package.


If your system is a new 3DS and have us assemble the kit, please order from here:

http://www.3dsvideocapture.com/product/71


If your system is a new 3DS XL and have us assemble the kit, please order from here:

http://www.3dsvideocapture.com/product/70


Once we have confirmed your payment, we will send you a notification message where our address and an account number for an international shipping are stated. Then you will send your console to us for the assembly, mark as "pay on delivery" using the account number.


Meanwhile, the shipping fee ($39.99 USD) will be charged when you order. The fee will be spent when we return your console after the capture card is installed.


We are looking forward to your order.


If you have any further questions, I'd be happy to answer them.


Kind regards,

I'd like to get a capture card, but installed internally, not the kind that adds bulk to the back. I have a nice grip that I still want to use with it. I'd also like to get a controller mod installed. Worried that one may interfere with the other depending on what I get. Any suggestions?
