My launch model 3ds XL has been ABUSED over the years and its hinges are still perfectly fineI heard that most if not all 3ds XLs that people have the hinges get damaged over time while the phat model doesnt have that problem.
Exactly, i'm talking about non new modelsSpeaking of non-new models I'd prefer the xl variant over the og one. The og gets scratches really easily and then there is the problem with the top screen getting damaged by the bottom screen
They are all prone to that problem (include "New" series), but the first model the most.The og gets scratches really easily and then there is the problem with the top screen getting damaged by the bottom screen
