So I got an interesting situation. My younger brother has had this O3DS XL lying around for a while. He completely lost interest in it since it's bricked (probably tried to install a CFW and did wrong things to it) and gave it to me.
Now I'm wondering if there is any way to get the O3DS XL up and running again.
Apparently, the device doesn't turn on. I charged it for a while, then pressed the power switch, the blue power indicator lights up for one second, then off again. Beyond that nothing happens. Nothing on either screen, no sounds, nothing.
There is no SD card in the SD card slot and no game in the game slot. I'm 100% certain he didn't bother making any NAND backups when he tried to install a CFW and it was such a long time ago that he doesn't even own the laptop on which he tried it.
I'm feeling pessimistic about the situation, but I thought about asking here first. Any way the device can be restored somehow?
