I’ve broken the screen on my modded 2ds XL, but my local repair store refuses to work on 3ds products. I’ve already tried to do the repair myself before on another, and it ended poorly. I would rather not break it further. Is there any service in the continental U.S. where I could possibly have the top screen replaced? Thank you for you time.
Yes that is precisely the issue I had with it. I ruined two replacement screens previously by damaging the ribbon cables when pushing them through the barrel hinge. Thanks anyway!
Yeah, Nintendo has long been anti-right to repair, as evidenced by its products.
It’s infuriating, because the parts are cheap and easy to come by.
Until someone designs a “slab” shell that eliminates the hinge, we’ll continue to see consoles like yours end up in the trash. :(
