I have an original 3DS, and the Circle Pad is really messed up on mine... and no, re-calibration does not help.
I know it can be one of two things.... either the electronics of the pad itself have gone bad.... or the plastic parts have broken.
Is there any way to tell what exactly is broken without completely taking the 3DS apart? The electronics being broken would be cheap and easy to replace... but the plastic components require utterly disassembling the entire system and I really don't want to do that, plus I am worried I would break it in attempting to do so.
