Reddit reviews 3DS XL / DSi XL Leather Case holds up 3x Game Cartridge

I call this my "Executive 3DS case".
People think it's a smartphone case when they see it on my desk.
Edit: Also, I'm 45. I'm not much younger than the old farts that manage me.

I use this case for my XL. I keep it in my back pocket. Not oversized pockets, feels heavy but it keeps it cushioned and holds 3 games, which means I can have 4 on hand.

This is what I have for my 3DSXL. I love it http://amzn.com/B003QWYX8E

This is my favorite case for the 3DS XL, says it's for the DSi XL so you can get it really cheap and fits the system and games perfectly. The "leather" actually feels surprisingly nice, one of the better feeling fakes for sure. Inside is your typical soft case material. It's thinner than many of the zipper designs and probably protects a little less, but if you're throwing it in a bag the size is great.

I got this black leather one. It seals with magnets and holds three cartridges, which, if you're doing it right, you won't ever need more than that. ;)

Probably this


I have this and it holds 6 games

this one:

it's a perfect fit, but doesn't have any extra space for cables or chargers if that's something you need.

I bought a Monster Hunter 4 case way back when in anticipation. The prices have sky rocketed a bit, but it is still a solid case. this case worked fairly well for me as well and it is fairly cheap. I am a really into leather.

Try this
Its leather, can fit 3 additional games and looks quite professional in a way.

There's 1 available from Amazon's Canada website, but it looks to be a little pricier.

I got a leather one for 12 bucks off amazon a couple months ago. It looks great and is holding up wonderfully. http://www.amazon.com/3DS-Leather-holds-Cartridge-Nintendo-DS/dp/B003QWYX8E/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1396207513&sr=1-1&keywords=3ds+leather

This is currently my top choice, so if anyone has it and would like to weight in, I would really appreciate it.

I have this case and I really like it. It does the job well, and it's REALLY cheap.

I'll keep that in mind!

This is actually the case I was looking at getting:

I have one already for my current 3DS XL and I love the look of it and it has a little bit of extra space on the sides so I think it might actually end up working!

I too use a combo of a wallet and game case.

I went with a smaller 6 game case so that it would not be bulky in my pocket :D

Pretty much any starter kit is just cheap crap. I'd advise you to just spend a little extra and buy quality.

Styli. Basically the only spare bulk pack available at the moment, hence the long shipping wait.

Car charger I would instead buy either a portable power bank and 3DS USB cable or a USB car charger like this and a 3DS USB cable. A power bank would be a good bit more expensive but is really nice to have if you have a lot of electronics you bring with you. Here's a pretty good one.

Great card case holder.

Budget but good carrying cases: 1, 2, 3, 4.

Yes, its more expensive to go this route. But I promise you that you will be happy you did. I bought those crappy starter kits for my GBC, GBA, and DS. The stuff was low quality and generally just doesn't last. I bought stuff for my 3DS similar to what I've linked here and have been much happier with the quality and make

Not the same thing, but I have something similar to that. I got this for my Dsi XL and I've been using it on my 3ds XL for a long time. Comes in a wine color and black. Only holds 3 games though. Pretty sturdy. I think I have had mine for like 3 years with no signs of wear. And I have a hori case on mine. Still fits.

That case definitely seems rugged but a bit too bulky for the bags I use to travel when I'm out, but definitely looks like a good choice for a carrying case.

I used to use this DSi XL Leather Case and it worked really well and was compact, I only stopped using it because I just made backups of my games onto my 3DS so I didn't have a need to have a carrying case.

I've got this one

Like this

Or there's this one

Personally, I use this case. It looks sophisticated and more for an adult gamer, without adding to the bullets that have been aiming right at my wallet lately. Fits into my purse and just looks like a planner/contact book that used to be popular back before everything went in phones. However, it has a magnetic closure and my old XL has a dead pixel. I doubt the magnets were strong enough to cause it, but just in case, I snagged this Pull&Go Folio on eBay. It's a case I've wanted for a long while, but they stopped making them by the time I bought my XL. (And yes, it's supposed to fit the XL just fine -- so it should hopefully fit the nXL just fine as well.)

I have a Legend of Zelda: Link Between Worlds 3DS XL with a bunch of games. Pokemon X, The legend of zelda game it came with and the Monster Hunter game, along with a bunch of DSI-ware games and I'm sure I have some more 3DS games, but I can't remember which ones to be honest, I'm not home right now.


The 3DS XL it's self is BRAND new. As in I've never played a game on it. I broke my first 3DS XL because I was trying to swap the shell and I'm dumb. I bought the LOZ one and just never touched it. Have original box, and this case. I'm selling it for $325, but I'm willing to negotiate.

Here's a similar case I have that fits my N3DS XL perfectly with 3 game slots on it. Seems very well made for only 12$
