My New 2DS XL has a defect on the bezel on the bottom half, it’s almost as if there’s a small bubble in the plastic right there. It’s small and insignificant, but it’s really bothering me. Unfortunately, it’s too late to return it - not to mention I’ve already installed CFW on it.

Does anyone else have any kind of defect on their 2DS XL? I’m wondering mostly because I want to feel better about this, and also to reassure myself that this was a factory defect and that it wasn’t a used device being sold as new.

Do you have a picture of this defect?

It’s hard to get on camera, but I can try when I get home later. It’s so small, that’s why it feels ridiculous. But I just hate that such an aesthetically nice device has to have this blemish.

Well I'd feel good knowing I'm not responsible for the defect.

I guess that helps a bit. Although on the other hand, it would have felt more personal if I had caused it.

Buy a replacement bezel and change it out? I mean it's not free, but it's got to be better if it nags at you and causes you grief, no matter how insignificant anyone else might find it.

    That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But you still don't know what it was?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Has he had seizures before?
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
