Anyone know if you can replacement New 3ds xl backplates in the UK? I saw them in the US nintendo store but I need a metallic blue one.
They are for o3ds xl; i am looking for a new 3ds xl plate.To be fair, by the time you pay shipping from outside the UK you are going to be looking at £14 at the least probably, especially for the blue one.

The whole casing for £16.69, personally i would purchase that, keep the battery cover and top cover, then sell the left over housing on eBay as there will be someone out there with a snapped hinge who would just want the top and bottom inside sections. (i/e someone who has had their battery and top covers custom painted or as i saw the other day one that was LOL "flocked")
I guess i'lll have a goHave you tried calling nintendo support? I have heard some success stories of getting replacement battery covers that way even on limited editions. Grab me a green animal crossing cover would ya?![]()
i tried calling nintendo uk and they said they wouldent replace any and they wont sell any and i tried buying one of aliexpress and it didnt come with screws so i cant put it on so im basically fucked

the security bolt is in the way of the og screws and all the official ones are from america so they either dont ship at all or cost alot in shippingWhat you got from AliExpress are fake one, you need to take the screws off the original one or order genuine one like this

Avoid bumping (reviving) old or new topics; they'll be replied to when they're replied to.

It's because @lucas millngton bumped an old thread, and his reply comes off as asking for help.
The back plate's screws are removable. You need to slide the retainer clip off the screws.

Good point. Guess the rules are stacked against us plebs. :/Fair enough, but the ToS also states;
