Hardware 3DS Shells

[DarkMario616]

I was wondering how long it would take for custom shells to be made.

How long did it take for the DS Phat and DS Lite?

 

[Veho]

A few months.

 

[DarkMario616]

I'll just wait a year or so in case the 3DS has faults...and so my warranty expires. But I want a clear transparent case to match my lineup:

Transparent GB
Transparent GBA
Transparent DS Lite

 

[Ikki]

Aren't they already on sale?

 

[fishykipper]

Aren't they already on sale?

Christ, they're terrible. People don't really buy these do they.

 

[Nollog]

I think they're nice.

 

[DarkMario616]

Woah what are they?

Oh just a cover...going to pre-order either clear or yellow...maybe wait to find one that protects the hinges

 

[shakirmoledina]

they are too bright unless the image is not tht good in quality... this time i will definitely get a blue one (dark if possible)

 

[Okami Wolfen]

I think they're nice.

I would greatly prefer the colors that we were shown at E3.

 

[DeMoN]

I'd definitely like a transparent 3DS, but the inside of the top half of the case would still have to be black.

 

[DarkMario616]

Oooh is that why it's black? Has to do with the 3D Screen? Or is this just a person preference thing?

 

[Nollog]

It's a design choice by Nintendo.
I doubt it's to do with the 3d screen.

 

[Arnold Schwarzen]

No it does have to do with the 3D, black helps you focus better on the 3D effects.

 

[DeadLocked]

Yeah I've seen some already in various online stores.

I remember wasting 5 hours on changing my brothers DS lite case.
