So I bought this used Nintendo 3DS XL and it's almost perfect. It was some marks that was used but doesn't really matter. The only problem is the power cable connector which is really loose, I will be playing while it is charging so if I make any strong move bum it gets disconnected from the charger. My questions are....

Does it happen with you guys as well?
Do the original charges have this same problem?

At the moment I just have the charger that came with it, which I think it's not the original one...I'm just trying to get some information from you all to know if I should buy the original or idk just buy a Chinese usb cable haha

Charging cable shouldn't be loose. Try finding and borrowing a friend's 3DS charger to see if it's loose with his or her.

You may need to fix the charging port with a new one.

At the moment I don't have anyone to borrow it, but I will buy an USB cable from AliExpress...while I wait for it I will look for a cheap one to check if the problem still persists. I just thought other people could be facing the same problem.
