Hi

Been reading the forums and seen the "wobble" problem being discussed, but this is not quite the same.

If i grab the bottom of the 3ds with my left hand, and the top half with my right hand ( 3ds system in closed position), i can move the top quite a bit on the left side of the 3ds, while the right hinge is very firm and does not "give" in anyway. When open i can also feel the left hinge is loose, compared to the right hinge wich is very firm and does not "give" in anyway. I dont have the "wobble" problem I`ve seen others reporting though (it does have that spring effect).
How is yours, and do you think its something to worry about ?

About the flashcart, i know that we can`t update a flashcart wich dont have "3ds firmware" on a 3ds console.
But later down the line when newer 3ds firmware`s arrive, can the 3ds update flashcarts then ? (if you have a working flashcart/firmware on the 3ds)

Also, would this
fit a 3ds ?

Cheers

I carry my Nintendo 3DS in a DSLite case and it fits just beautifully no issues here.

    @K3Nv2 what was your ps4 situation
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    did you always have a ps4 you never updated
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or were you able to get new ps4 tracking it \
    as soon as the hack was announced
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or did you have to find a used one with the lower firm ware that was not updated
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got this ps4 at launch and never updated since 9.0
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You got a good chance of buying a used one and asking the seller how often they used or even ask for a Pic of fw and telling them not to update
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Speaking of PLaystation. I see Evilnat put out a beta for PS3 CFW 4.91.2 on the 22nd.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Don't really see the point in updating it tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right, I thought about updating my PS3 CFW to 4.91, but why really, everything plays fine now. I guess for people that have already updated past 4.9 it would be helpful.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Idk if online servers are still active that would be my only thought

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Thats true, personally I don't play it online at all, in fact, I deleted all wifi details on it once I installed CFW, so it won't connect and auto-update itself
