I’ve seen IPS mod for GBA which is considered as old hardware, but the mod is exists

But i can’t find it for 2DS XL, the 2DS XL is a good console imo, it is just the screen that have pale looking color, IPS mod could be lifesaver for this, but i cant find it anywhere

Is there a reason for this 2DS XL IPS mod not existing?

Its not a mod of anything. Its actual Hardware you would need of a new screen.

There is nothing that would prevent you from ordering a New 3DS XL IPS screen and trying that out. It would only work if the ribbon pinout matches (very likely).

Be aware that the N3DS IPS screen is not much better than TN however. All the LCDs in all 2/3DS models are shit.

No it will not work as the hardware calibration problem can't be user edited

Sorry, don't have one. It's a little of a gamble to find IPS N3DS XL's so i guess they are also rare as replacement parts.

And to be clear. I have not tried this before. I recommend you compare N3DS XL and N2DS XL screens via pictures to see if this will work (dimensions). I think it should because it would save Nintendo lots of money reusing the same parts.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
