T0ffee 07/31/20 8:53:34 PM #1:	https://i.imgur.com/pUXzvkw.jpg https://i.imgur.com/mikcInX.jpg After 5 years of service, it gave out. Bought it a few months after release and it has been one of my most played consoles ever. Strangely enough, my regular 3ds's battery still works fine. And that one's even older than my XL. And to those wondering, there's a hardware store near my place that accepts rechargeable battery disposal, so no worries there. Anybody here had a similar experience? --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido <cite>T0ffee posted [p:942839689] in My New 3DS...

Nintendo calls that model the New Nintendo 3DS, and you can't even transfer your games from it to a non New 3DS model. Freaking sucks. <cite>ChaosAzeroth posted [p:942839792] in My New 3DS...

I haven't used my 3ds since I got my Switch so getting 2 new batteries for a system I'd barely use now seems like a waste. I'll just leave my 3ds as-is for now. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido <cite>T0ffee posted [p:942845150] in My New 3DS...

waterdeepchu 08/01/20 12:27:24 AM #13:	This tends to happen if you don't let a battery full discharge, and instead start plugging it in with greater frequency. The reactions in the battery create various gases, which slowly warp the inside of the battery. What likely happened with you is that your battery started to lose its charge, slowly at first. So you'd plug it in more, leave it plugged in more often. This process will accelerate until it finally stops holding a charge at all. And every now and then, it explodes. --- Friend Code: 2707-2146-0610 Ditto, Kecleon, Lillipup <cite>waterdeepchu posted [p:942847108] in My New 3DS...
