Like the title says. N2DS XL Will not power on. Bought it new, installed Luma, and put it aside for a couple of weeks. Finally got back to it, and nothing. Turned it on to test a cart about a week ago, and it was fine, but now absolutely nothing. The battery charges, but I get no lights of any kind from the power button. I have tried 2 batteries, and 3 charges. Nothing helps. Any further ideas?

boot.firm in the root of your sd card?

Yes, and in the backup card I have for the unit. It acts more like a hardware issue than a Luma issue. No lights of any kind when I try to power it on. When I've had Luma issues in the past the unit will power on, but give no display. I am not getting any signs of life here.

Did you leave it on sleep mode all this time? I've heard of that causing problems.

I don't believe so, though I am not writing it off as impossible. I would figure opening the unit, and swapping the battery a few times like i have would override any issue caused by a sleep bug. But if there's something I can try related to this I am willing to give it a go.

    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?

    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:

    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
