Thanks for this. What we should all do is submit these fred meyer links to amazon. You can do this by scrolling down the page to this area, and submitting the link. If we all do this together, I think we can all get a price adjustment via amazon. This is better for those who don't want to create a FredMeyer account, or people like me, who don't have a FredMeyer in their vicinity.

It is actually a headphone case. I like it better because of the pocket so things don't move around as much. Also it is padded, less noisy, won't scratch, has a zipper, and in my opinion, feels better. Here is the exact one I got, but there are millions of other ones that are different shapes and colors.
Some other things that are notable:
And sorry if you're wondering, but I don't know what kind of knife that is.
DO NOT use clear nail polish, it will just ruin the surface of the DS. Rather than that, just get a crystel DS case where your DS stays protected, and looks good and clean! ;)
Here is a link!
EDIT: And yes, I do own this case and it has kept my 3DS in perfect condition for about a year now!
Here are the Amazon links to the games I have found, some of them are really expensive.
Some boxart of the games are weird as hell.

The Butterfox Switch Carry-All is available from Amazon. It was $24.99.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZZWV6YX/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0
I was looking for something that was small enough to tote around my switch and extra accessories like the Joy-Con grip and my giant 26Ah battery.
I would give it 5 stars and would buy it again.
This becomes Amazon's best selling product.
Nyko makes pretty much the same thing and sells it for 80% less.
EDIT: Turns out you can buy them for even cheaper than that. Amazon has it for $13.25+shipping, and BestBuy has it for $14.99 with free shipping.
You can buy the NFC Reader for the old 3DS so it can read amiibos :)
Well, if you want to play a Pokemon game and learn more about it, you could always buy a 3DS or 2DS and pick up one of the newer games, but if you don't have the money, then you could always play a rom or watch a playthrough on YouTube.
Here's a couple pretty cheap listings for a console and all of the newer games (Gen 6) if you're intirested: 2DS
Pokemon X
Pokemon Y
Pokemon Omega Ruby
Pokemon Alpha Sapphire
But, like I said, if you're not interested in spending money, there's lots of free options to learn about Pokemon as well.
There's one more resource I'd like to link, here's the official Pokedex, so you can see and learn about every Pokemon, old and new: Pokedex
PSA, amazon has it up for preorder....
I wish this one came in a cheaper 2DS-XL form.
Can someone explain to me why the hell Nintendo games are so fucking expensive?
Discount price: $48
You save: $0.03
Discount price: $33.58
Discount price: $44
Other developers' games for the same platform are much much cheaper than Nintendo's own games. Why?
You can totally buy the AC adapter first-party: http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-3DS-AC-Adapter/dp/B00L59D9HG/ref=pd_sim_vg_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=0G199HEY83WPF1K3XFYN
I get why they aren't including it (to save $10 off the initial price,) and as someone with 3 adapters laying around already, I don't really need another one. But I totally get the frustration too.
Hope I'm not too late, but as someone who enjoys fantasy games and shooters, I'd recommend the following:

Recommendations for no particular reason

PS. I see a lot of people mentioning Pokemon, but if he hasn't shown interest in Pokemon by now he may not like it. It seemed like the perfect game for me but I just couldn't enjoy it half as much as everyone else does.
Well I've got great news for you. If you are happy with a fatter console, you can get a larger battery for very cheap like this one for the 3Ds. This will give you well over 12 hours battery, from many reports.
I am sure there will be similar solutions for the Switch too.
Your apparent reason for not owning a 3ds is easily and cheaply solvable!
Why not get a case like this?. Won't be so permanent.
All are $19.99/$15.99 with Prime

I think the Hori LAN Adapter is seriously underrated. Granted it shouldn't be needed if the Switch had decent WiFi but the number of those issues popping up and how easily the LAN Adapter solves them makes it an essential item.
The Butterfox Switch Carry-All also seems to be sliding a bit under the radar. It is great if you want something to pack more than just a Switch and a couple games into a carry case. I have my on ear headphones, spare chargers and even a battery grip in it. I can also fit in a Pro Controller if I wanted. I don't ever take the dock with me though.

Sometimes what Amazon will do is if they 100% know they are getting more stock in the future, but they don't know when, they will allow people to place orders for it but say that they will email you with an updated shipping date once they get their stock.
When they do this though they don't list it on the main listing page, they put it on the offer details page here.
They did this with FE:F Birthright a couple weeks ago so people would still get the Prime discount and they did it last year for LoZ:MM and AC:NL.
just to be fair
Shin Megami Tensei IV
is the ninth official entry in the Shin Megami Tensei series, (if you're following with Megami Tensei, Megami Tensei II, Shin Megami Tensei, Shin Megami Tensei II, Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei, Megami Tensei: if..., Shin Megami Tensei III, and Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey). Shin Megami Tensei IV is a sequel to Shin Megami Tensei I and II, although its story can very much stand on its own, as do most other SMT plots. The game was developed by Atlus and released in 2013. SMTIV is very much a dungeoneering RPG; you level up through gaining experience, you gain equipment and loot, and you negotiate with demons during battle and convince them to join you.
GAMEPLAY:
Shin Megami Tensei IV is not an easy game and it's far from a game that holds your hand. If you aren't looking for a challenge, then turn away right now. Gameplay consists of exploring dungeons, fighting monsters and demons in turn-based combat, (to which you can talk with said demons and try to convince them to join you), explore towns, accept sidequests, etc., etc. It's pretty much your standard Role-playing Game. The combat system also features a mechanic called the Press-Turn System; when a character or enemy strikes an elemental weakness of their target, an extra action for the turn is gained. It should also be mentioned there are 4 different endings to achieve based on the many dialogue choices and actions in the story you make.
STORY:
You take on the role of the protagonist, (defaultly named Flyyn), who is one of the few people chosen to become a 'samurai' in the Eastern Kingdom of Mikado, a world that seems to be a mix of European and Japanese culture. You and your fellow samurai are tasked with fighting demons underneath the castle grounds. Unfortunate events begin happening when a Black Samurai visits the kingdom and begins handing out things called 'books' to the local natives. As you and your friends delve deeper underground the castle, questions become answered while many more are raised.
The main characters beside yourself are: Jonathon - a noble of the Eastern Kingdom of Mikado. He believes in the fair equality of all people and is a gentle soul. Walter - a resident of the Casulary class, much like yourself. You and Walter were raised in poor situations but have now become respected samurai. Walter is a hothead and more than often thinks with his soul, not his head. Isabeau - a strong woman from the noble class who is also apart of your long journey. She questions the many situations your group come across and she has trouble deciding where her beliefs lie...
ART/GRAPHICS/MUSIC WARNING: SKIP THIS PART IF YOU DO WANT TO BE SPOILED OR DON'T OPEN THE IMAGES AT LEAST
SMTIV uses a mixture of 3D polygonal graphics and 2D hand-drawn artwork. The environments are typically in 3D while the enemy battles and cutscenes are all in 2D. Some examples: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
The art style is very much steeped in a dark tone; you'll be going through kingdoms as well as apocalyptic locations. This is not a happy game; there's little color to be found and nearly the entire world of SMTIV is filled with misery and despair.
The music is easily one of the best aspects about Shin Megami Tensei IV. There are quite a few peaceful tracks as well as many fast-paced battle themes. Hallucination is very much a reference to the title screen of previous SMTs. Kicchigorgi Forest is a great example of a once-beautiful place gone desolate. Battle B2 is a personal favourite of mine as it always pumps me up for a great boss fight.
**MY OWN CRITICISMS*
As I said before, SMTIV does not hold your hand very much. This game is hard and if you're not cautious or prepared, the game can easily wipe your entire party in an instant, even in a random battle. I see it as a dog-eat-dog world, but some see it as unfair and unpredictable, so be wary of this. Many people also have trouble with being prepared for certain areas and bosses and because of this, they'll often overgrind their party and make the game somewhat easy... for a little while. Grinding can be long and tedious in SMTIV but if you don't want to grind, there's the option of using your brain.
While grinding is awful, there's the wonderful alternative of using strategy. I've gotten through SMTIV at extremely low levels, even with weaker demons, because I knew exactly what to do and what to expect. I've gotten through SMTIV without grinding at all, instead relying on what I'm capable of. Of course, this is only expected of you if you're a veteran of the series. Most people will probably have to grind and I think this is where some people lose steam for SMTIV.
The 3D effect of the 3DS is absolutely awful. SMTIV might be the worst '3D' game I've ever seen, no joke. Also, there are few 'animated' cutscenes, and it would've been nice if there were more of them.
FINAL NOTE*
Personally, I think this game is freaking amazing and being an RPG veteran, I absolutely adore what SMTIV is. The replay value on this one, for me, is high and I'd pop this fucker in any day. The art style is fantastic, the music is amazing, and best of all, the gameplay feels fresh every time I go through it. I love the characters and there are many scenes in the game that resonate with me. On Amazon.com, the game is currently... $20!!! Holy crap, that's an amazing deal! I originally payed $50 for this game, although that version came with a strategy guide, a box, and a sample soundtrack CD.
If you guys have any questions about this game, especially* if you want to prepare for the eventual SMT X FE, then SMTIV is a great place to start and you should totally ask me questions!
Prime Now has it, if you have Amazon Prime.

They should deliver to the Hosptial, they deliver to my work .5 mile away.
For both N3DS and N3DSXL systems
Some of these can also be found from retailers online, like Best Buy and Target. I generally use Best Buy, Amazon, and eBay, but check other retailers just in case.
Case: Looking for a protector that protects your system from scratches? Most people recommend the HORI TPU case. NA currently has one for the XL (LL in Japan), but you'll have to import one for the standard size.
Looking for a pouch to keep your system from dust or to carry on-the-go and protect them from falls? There's sooo many options you can just search up on Amazon and eBay, not to mention other Japanese import sites.
Screen Protectors: Screens will inevitably get scratched, as careful as anyone can be. If you're someone who cannot stand scratches or want to keep your system in perfect condition, you can't go wrong with screen protectors.
Micro SD card: Can't go wrong with Sandisk, and I purchased the 32GB since that's the highest Nintendo says the system will support. Any higher and you have to format it to FAT32 in your PC so the system will recognize it. Any good brand will be fine though, but I just go with Sandisk all the time.
Stylus: This DSi stylus is so damn comfortable. I never thought it mattered because I just put up with the cramping, but I purchased some items on the Nintendo Online store, so I went for it. It's all I use now. The cheapest shipping is $5 on the store though, so go for it when you're ordering other items with it.
Customization?
For N3DS
Coverplates: Amazon.JP if you have a forwarding service like Tenso. I like AmiAmi, but it's hard to catch the plates sometimes. PlayAsia tends to be more pricey, so sometimes you're better off just looking on eBay if your last resort is PlayAsia.
For N3DSXL and N3DS
Charms: Basically the same as the above. Many options around Etsy, just search what you want up. Up to your discretion. :)
Overall
Yeah, I'm a HORI fan. Their products have been solid for me, so I have no qualms with them. I just wish more of their products would appear in NA so shipping times would be shorter, but I think the wait times have been worth it anyway.

I've been going overboard with accessories. Here's what I picked up so far:
Glass screen protector - Just in case.
128GB microSD card - I rarely buy physical games
Pro Controller - I love it. So comfortable.
PowerA Hybrid Case - I basically use this as a stand for my Switch when I'm on the go.
JDeal portable dock - It works. Make sure to follow the instructions. Works with my Nexus5x 5v 3A portable charger.
[Retractable HDMI cable] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019J96PSI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
Hestia case - The Switch with the PowerA Hybrid Case, portable dock, portable USB-C charger, and retractable HDMI cable all fit in this.
USB 3.0 LAN Adapter - Faster speeds when on the official dock.
Gooseneck tablet holder - Ultimate comfort. Play while in bed.
Magic NS Wireless Adapter - I had originally bought this so I could use my PS4 controller. This was before I picked up the Pro Controller. It works. There was a recent firmware update that gives gyro support for PS4 controllers and it works well with Splatoon 2.
On the way:
Mumba case - For better comfort/protection while playing in handheld mode.
Well, there isn't much to report right now...
Did I miss any?
Preorder is up on Amazon Canada: http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00S8IGG4U/ref=ox_ya_os_product
Edit: Looks like it's already sold out.
The listing is still up but I can't find it via search

As others have said:
If you are looking for a cheaper alternative you can just get an older 3DS or the 2DS which is cheaper but lacks 3D and has a different shape. Depending on if she likes 3D (like in the movie theatres) you can just get the 2DS but it does add a different amount depending on the game. Some games don't use it much, some use it a ton. Either will run the game fine, only you would need to pick up one of these (link) if you got the deluxe version of the game that has the plush animal I mentioned. The "New 3DS" line has that thing built in already so you don't need it if you go with that.
The only things that the IR port could be used for are built in to the body the New3DS(XL) systems.
The Circle Pad Pro for Regular Size 3DS and XL size 3DS are not required for the N3DS(XL) as not only are the new systems the wrong size, but the CPP's features are all built in standard equipment for the New2/3DS systems! That's the two extra shoulder buttons on the back (ZL, ZR) and the gray rubber C-stick nub above your ABXY buttons.
The Amiibo Reader (AKA: Nintendo NFC Reader/Writer) is also already built in as any Amiibo can be gently placed on your bottom touchscreen when prompted to activate or save your Amiibo figurines' progress.
Since the 3DS is in its twilight life cycle (we're sadly in the last year closeout to obsolete status) to make way for the Nintendo Switch fully taking over, I highly doubt that a new accessory is going to be released for the Nintendo 3DS that will utilize the IR port. As long as everything else works okay on the system, I don't see a reason to send it in to Nintendo Repair.
As long as this means the little black oval window on the back of the system next to the charging port, that is the one that is not used.
However, like pawlik23 asked, if it's the little dot next to the inside camera on the top shell, that is an IR light emitter. That IR LED is used to shine IR light on your face in poor lighting conditions if you want to use 3D in low, no, or poor light conditions as cameras can see IR, but our eyes can't. That allows the Stable 3D to work in nearly all situations. If that is what is scratched, your Stable 3D may not work correctly when your face is dark or if a light source is behind your face, and that may be worth sending in to Nintendo.
This is an amiibo, a delightful new creation from Nintendo that blends both toy and game alike. When plugged into the right games, amiibo can unlock new modes, characters, and features.
Basically they're figures and cards (and sometimes even plush) that contain NFC (near-field communication) chips that can be scanned by the game. There's an entire set of Animal Crossing amiibo that can now be scanned into New Leaf that do various things. A 3DS XL, that you claim to have, needs a special adapter in order to scan amiibo, but a NEW Nintendo 3DS can scan on the bottom screen. They do various things and the latest Direct goes into detail on what exactly they do to New Leaf.

Nope, $200 even (at least in the US).
Edit: In case you're wondering why I bought this over the Analogue NT, it's because my friend's 3DS got busted. I tried fixing it, but ultimately failed. I was already planning on purchasing this 3DS because it looks frickin awesome, so I just went for it so I could loan my old 3DS out to my friend. It was a (mostly) practical purchase (or as much as the purchase of a game console can be called practical)
If you haven't already bought one yet, here is a link for a 3ds that is the price of a 2ds on Amazon. Nintendo New 3DS XL - Super... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076KRDRQG?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf.
NES style... But doesn't come with AC adapter
this is my favorite
Just about a year ago, the Mario & Luigi 3DS XL came with Dream Team. I'm also pretty sure that the LoZ 3DS did come with the game as well. So I would say it's not unreasonable to expect a special 3DS to come with a game.
yes my current charger is off brand, and only used it about 5 times. i just ordered this one which seems to be official but not entirely sure

If you want maximum protection for your 3DS, the PDP NERF Armor is hands down your best bet. Keep in mind that it does make the 3DS a bit bulkier, but it essentially doubles as a carrying case.

If you are generally very good about not damaging your system, and just want to minimize things like scratches and whatnot, I like the eForCity crystal case. It does the job without adding any extra bulk to your 3DS.

I believe that this can be used with a belt.
EDIT: I'm trying to find a picture to prove it but I can't seem to find one so it might not be true.
EDIT 2: There's a ring on the back for clips. Here is the picture for that.
I have an XL with the CPP for Monster Hunter and ended up getting this case: Monster Hunter 4 3DS LL Pouch from Amazon. It is a tight fight but it does hold the XL/CPP along with a few games.

Nope, no charger is included. That said, you can use any charger in the DS family all the way down to DSi. If you don't have an old one lying around, you can pick one up on Amazon right now for $8.99. It's the "official" charger too! Here's a helpful link: 3DS Wall Charger

Oh and Amazon too but it's Prime members only: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01307Q6ZC
You say he doesn't have a Wii U - does he have a 3DS? If so, those can use amiibo too. Even if it's the original and not the New 3DS, he could still use the amiibo adapter and the current cheapest Mario amiibo on Amazon.
You could also go for the SH Figuarts Mario or the Mario Nendoroid if you wanna go the figurine route.
Pokemon Sun: $32.00 after discounts
I want this case but the only problem is there's no mesh pouch on the top half for larger accessories. I'm leaning towards this case.
The SNES New 3DS XL should be on Amazon (US) for $150.
Here it is.

PS.
The non-XL "new" 3ds was discontinued 2017or2018.
IMO, the XL is well worth the extra size/money.
No, looks like it's compatible with all 3DS's

Short answer: No.
Long answer: Yes, with a ton of work, dedication, and actual real-life money spent, and the right 3DS firmware version.
SUPER LONG ANSWER: Yes, with Homebrew (currently not feasibly achievable with the current firmware version), a PowerSaves device, the proper firmware version (reiterating because it is literally impossible to do on some of the more recent ones). Some valuable resources, in a short form, are this 3DS Homebrew guide, this PowerSaves device purchase page, and this encouraging potato. More than likely, if you're running the proper firmware version, you'll only be able to use OoTHax, which uses an exploit with The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D (cartridge only, sorry). So here's a purchase page for that, too. Both a Nintendo Selects version and a non-Nintendo Selects version will work, as long as it's a cartridge.
And that's just the basics to get your Homebrew working properly. You'll need the Save Manager Homebrew App, which can be downloaded from a link in this reddit thread in order to export the save data from the 3DS to your SD card, and then this beautiful site in order to actually edit your save data. Since you're only going for a backup, though, I'd recommend just saving the files put onto your SD card by Save Manager (something like garden.dat, exhibition.dat, etc.) and tucking them away in a folder somewhere on your computer. After you backup your files on your computer, you are free to delete your town as you wish and start anew. When you want to return to the old town, just backup your current town's files to your computer, and put the old town's files onto your SD card.
And, uh, one more thing, which I'm going to bold and italics because it's extremely important, no matter which route you go for save backing-upping: Nintendo was VERY smart about the way Animal Crossing: New Leaf deals with save data, and because of this, every single save has it's own unique key. If, for some reason, the game is expecting a key for one save (your most recent one, let's just say) and it gets a key for a different save (a random example being someone else's saves), the game will delete all the data, and wipe the keys, making it only possible to restart ALL over without any way of recovering or restoring from any prior backups. The site I linked you to has a way to make sure that any save put through it can sync up with the current save key, and the Save Manager Homebrew app does, to my best understanding of many uses of it, automatically sync the keys up. I think. I've never really had any problems, and I'm telling you almost 100% exactly how I do it, so you probably won't have any problems either.
(coughs) Did I go a little bit too far there? Nevertheless, everything you need to do is contained within this post.
Amazon adjusted their price to $15 (at least with Prime) on the selects version

When I'm talking Pikachu, I'm thinking of a Stuffed Pikachu: https://www.amazon.com/Pokémon-Large-Pikachu-Ashs-Plush/dp/B01GFZT3QK/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1511244467&sr=8-7&keywords=stuffed+pikachu
I don't know how he'll react, but I was a 9 year old kid once and having a Stuffed Pikachu was great.
This is the Pokémon Sun that I was talking about in the 3DS https://www.amazon.com/Pokémon-Sun-Nintendo-3DS/dp/B01C93CWU6/ref=sr_1_6?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1511244620&sr=1-6&keywords=pokemon%2Bgames&th=1
The 20% off newly released Games also works up to 2 weeks after the game's launch, you'll get the 20% discount whether you pre-order or buy within the first 14 days of it's release if you are an Amazon Prime member.
This promotion was added to compete with Best Buy Gamer's Club Unlocked which is the same exact discount (20%). If you can't afford or don't want Amazon Prime for a $99 a year, you can go to Best Buy. GCU is only $30 for two years.
Both BB and AZ also apply their discount to amiibo as well.
My Nintendo Tag is Cheddar. If I could receive any game right now it would be Pokemon Sun. My favorite game series as a kid was Pokemon. I grew up watching the show with my older brother, and I saved my money to get a Gameboy and Pokemon Ruby. I took that Gameboy everywhere and eventually started getting some of the older Pokemon games. I sold my Gameboy for some stupid reason and just recently picked up a 3DS and Omega Ruby. It has been great replaying my first Pokemon game and would love to have Pokemon Sun so I can experience some of the changes they have made to the series over the years that I didn't have a DS to play Pokemon games on.
Still not as bad as needing to buy entire systems like you previously implied. I can find copies of Sun for $20.
Or you know, ask for it in GTS, as was my first comment at the start of all of this. Which defeats your whole premise that it costs a huge amount of money to complete the Pokedex.
Butterfox carry all case looks good I'm after that but I can't get it in Australia yet
https://www.amazon.com/Butterfox-Nintendo-Carry-all-Storage-Pro-controller/dp/B06ZZWV6YX
Those kind of products are more about convenience than being the best option.
You definitely want a screen protector. The amFilm 2-pack is considered the best around here.
You also want a carrying case. I recommend either the Hestia Goods or Butterfox models. I have the former and love it. The later is the most recommended around Reddit.
Between the screen protector and case from Amazon you're at the same $20 as the starter kit. So you can either get two high quality items, or more lower (but doable) quality items.
This one:

It has a bit of an oil/new product smell but starting to go away. The side pouch is awesome, fits the charger I got (both outlet and car charger), headphones, 3d printed stand a friend made me, and two of those thin black things you put on the joycons separately.

To try to summarize the 3DS line up :
the original models (3DS/XL) is the older "slower processor" model, so is the 2ds which is flat in design and doesn't open like a shell.
I would avoid those all together, actually you won't find them new in stores any way, except for the 2ds which I also would avoid despite its cheap $79.99 price tag, it has some drawbacks of a small screen, single low volume speaker and of course the slower processor, I really find the 2ds only suitable towards children for durability.
the newer models (New 3DS/ New 3DS XL) are the ones you want, they're faster, with better 3D effects and eye tracking, and a small nub added to controls.
I believe the SNES edition you mention is the New 3DS XL model here :
https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-New-3DS-XL-Super-Mario/dp/B076KRDRQG
See on box the (new) word above Nintendo, that's what you want, and I beleive this particular SNES edition is regularly on discount so you'll be able to grab it (it went down to $99 temporarily last month) so keep an eye out for it.
In addition to those New models, Nintendo launched last year the (New 2DSXL) which has everything the New 3DS models have, except for 3D effect which some people don't use or care about.
The New 2DSXL is an excellent choice, it is heavily supported by Nintendo in different colors and packaged games, and is constantly on sale if you keep an eye for it.
So my advice is you should choose between a (New 2DSXL) or (New 3DS XL SNES Edition) , either choices are brilliant, just get a feel of what he would like more and if he really cares about 3D effect.
Other answers :
All DS games work on the 3Ds.
The Super Smash Bros for Wii U and 3DS are the same I think, but it's still a totally different amazing experience on 3DS to play on the go and in hand held.

If you haven't bought it yet, I'd go with this only because it's new and cheaper. Of course I'd say the Zelda one looks cooler but if you're ok with any edition, this is a better deal. $150 for a brand new N3DS XL + free Super Mario Kart

Congrats on getting the $99 3DS! I just barely managed to get one myself, haha. I was slightly paranoid just carrying it around the store before checkout with how crazy people were acting. =p I bought this case for it at Gamestop. It was clearanced out for next to nothing if they have them at your nearby store. It fits the system perfectly and has a very professional look to it if you're interested.
Nintendo Official Executive Case for 3DS https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004JLO65Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_lKypybFVJ3Z50
I recently got this case from Power A and it's perfect. It's actually one of the very first, original 3DS accessories, which is why it's so cheap now. Many of the sleeve-style cases for the original 3DS will work just fine. Clear shells aren't my thing, so I haven't looked for any of those, but I know how frustrating it can be to search for this stuff on Amazon and eBay, given the weird naming convention.
I bought this -
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004JLO65Q/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
After doing a pretty good amount of searching this was my favorite option, plus $12 really isn't that bad. I do wish there were more options for the regular n3ds.
I purchased these pouches for my O3DS and N3DS and they fit snugly well. You can carry two cartridges and it fits a stylus.

If it's the battery that is bugging you the most, you may want to look into a Nyko Power Pak. It will add a bit of bulk to your 3DS but will greatly improve the batter life.
Consider something like this, that you can hang within your own reach. (NOT his reach, or it will be emptied in the first minute of the trip!)
http://www.amazon.ca/Over-Door-Clear-Organizer-Storage/dp/B000IXOH7G
Fill each pocket with a different activity/toys/snacks. Go to the dollar store and stock up on things like sticker books, crayons/pad of paper, mini cars, bouncy balls, anything that might keep his interest for awhile that doesn't require your supervision.
I recently did a 12 hour flight with my 2.5 year old (and 4 month old daughter). The very best thing I brought with me (other than the iPad) in terms of entertaining him was a ziplock bag full of miniature cars each individually wrapped in painters tape. Yes it was a bitch to clean up after (lots of little scraps of painters tape stuck to everything in arms reach) but every one of them brought happy "oooooh" "wow" "woah" comments, and bought about ~10 minutes of unwrapping time, plus at least 20 minutes of happily rolling them around on things. So yeah, painters tape!
Also, get external battery chargers for the tablet and the 3ds. (Like this one for example. Http://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Power-Pak-3DS-Nintendo/dp/B004SJA7L6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1361147770&sr=8-1&keywords=battery+pack+3ds
Good luck. It won't be easy but you can do it!
Buy this. I use it on my O3DS and the battery life is really great.
Here you go

I also have screen protectors I got from Amazon and it doesn't mess up my 3D at all and I don't even notice them. I also ordered one of those hard plastic protective shells for the outside of my XL, which helps with scratching bit time.
EDIT:Here is a link to what I bought, the little packing on the bottom with the screen protectors and the zipper case and the shell for less than 6 bucks.
Did you have an original DS/have you played any of those yet? The DS has a ton of great titles that you can play on your 3DS if didn't start there (or even if you did!)
Here's a long list of random games that you might enjoy:
This one can hold 2 systems according to some of the reviews. I have it and it can (barely) hold an XL in the CPP, so I believe it could hold 2 systems on their own.
Drop everything and buy this:

I just bought myself one for about $240 on Amazon last week.
This one. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FXOP1MU/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It was from Nintendo so it was definitely new, I would also recommend a clear TPU case to protect it.

Amazon has the official one for $8 but only for prime members
If you don't mind paying extra you can get one here that's fulfilled by Amazon
If you have prime you can get it in 2 Days or less!

Seems like the price is slowly creeping up.
https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Official-Executive-Case-3DS/dp/B004JLO65Q/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1472976937&sr=8-1-fkmr1&keywords=new+3ds+executive+case This is what you are looking for. Slim, official, and nicely made. Girlfriend loves hers.
As an older male i like my executive case its not perfect (specifically the curve of the flap) but its has a mature style and holds 2 extra games, which is all i need.
Ocarina of Time 3D will keep you entertained for hours and hours. Street Fighter IV is also fun, but gets boring after a while unless you play online. Turn on most if not all of your Streetpass features on, as they don't happen very often (depending on where you live). Download Nintendo Video for free from the eShop, as it has Spotpass updates every once in a while. I also recommend buying this official Nintendo 3DS case. If you don't like a lot of the currently released titles, watch out for some of the games to be released. Have fun with it!
One of the best cases I've ever had for a handheld. It's sleek yet simple, I like it just for that reason!
[3DS Executive Case] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004JLO65Q/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00)
i have the standard 3DS, and yeah, ive never had any issues finding the sweet spot as far as the 3d slider goes. as long as im holding it properly, the 3d is pretty flawless with most games, so i rarely turn it off. there ARE some games though where it feels like they get too concerned with the 3D, and theres not really any rhyme or reason as to why one thing pops out so much farther than another. just so long as it looks sufficiently 3D, the devs seem happy. as for the bigger battery, i picked up this guy and its some of the best money ive ever spent. it makes the 3ds a little bit fatter, and a little bit heavier, but it actually makes it more comfortable to hold. it also feels a little bit rubbery so its easier to grip than the smooth plastic back the 3ds comes with. the only issue is it no longer fits into the circlepad pro, or the charging cradle, but its really easy to switch back to the old battery if i need to. if you've got a 3ds, pick up this battery. it pretty much completely changed my relationship with my 3ds. instead of constantly worrying about battery power, i hardly ever need to think about it beyond remembering to charge it every night. and i think they actually do make a charging cradle for the extended battery if you're feeling like Mr. Moneybags.
Pretty much what I said above
If you follow that I imagine you could achieve the top rating of 8 hours. Other than that you can get a battery pack, but be aware that this voids your warranty and the one I listed has some negative reviews.
it be dis. http://www.amazon.com/Power-Pak-Nintendo-3DS/dp/B004SJA7L6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1317577053&sr=8-1
Do you have the original 3DS? If so, don't spend $20.
I used the Power Pak, it had about twice the battery life and I got it for around $10 at a GameStop. Amazon has it listed for $14.99, but there is also this at $10 if you don't need the extra battery life or slight bulkiness of the Power Pak.
That seems expensive compared to some other battery options out there. I just bought one made by Nyko on Amazon that claim 2x battery life. Because they were so cheap (~$13), I bought 2! Here is a link, they appear to be getting good reviews.
I've been dying to play Mario Kart 7. I adore all the Mario Kart games so of course, I know I'll enjoy the newest installation for the 3DS! Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get my paws on it because it's so darned expensive. Even when it's used at places like Gamestop, it's still about $30, despite it being one of the first 3DS titles to be released. It will be less expensive used, so definitely buy a used copy! I love me the used games.
My favorite game is... Pokemon Mystery dungeon for the DS. Oh. My. Gosh. YOU NEED TO PLAY IT IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY. It's the best Pokemon game, in my opinion. You get to play as a Pokemon and explore with your cute little Pokemon teammates while fighting crime and shit. It's also pretty emotional. I actually cried near the end. Good stuff.
Well, thanks for the contest!
I want the Bruins to win. If they do win and I win I would like this game. lets hope they win people!

This is what I use. If you would welcome some added weight and bulk to your normal 3DS, I'd go with this battery. I found the normal 3DS to be a bit small for my liking but the battery gave it the extra bulk needed for me to have a better grip. It also can last a solid week with a few hours of play each day without going into the red.
It seems to be on prime for $30 but there's someone selling it for $20.
Here ya go: http://www.amazon.com/5000mAh-Extended-Battery-Nintendo-CTR-001-MIN-CTR-001/dp/B005NJ2UEW/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1341389309&sr=8-5&keywords=3Ds+battery
One of the reviews on there is mine. It actually puzzles me that more people aren't buying this awesome battery! I was also the first reviewer, I was looking at the "mugen power" battery for the 3Ds, which is pretty much a $50 version of this. I simply didn't have the money for one, so I found this on youtube. Nothing but people bad talking it and being overall pessimistic, so I found on on amazon after looking for a couple seconds and decided to take a gamble on it. Blew my mind. Generic or not, its good. I've had it for several months and at $20 there's not much of a downside. It doesn't come with a screw driver so you'll have to buy one, its a good investment though and they're pretty cheap too.
Edit: Holy shit, the Mugen power battery is actually about $100
Worth every penny. 15+ hours of gameplay

I had a problem like this for my DS lite, and I had to get the battery replaced. Though, on the bright side, if you had to get your battery replaced, 3rd party sellers have already made batteries superior than the Nintendo ones.

Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth for 3DS.
Conception 2 - Children of the Seven Stars
Shin Megami Tensei IV
Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE
Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale
Steam search with the tag "anime" (beware, most are horrid fan service visual novels)
I know you mentioned you don't have any means to play it, but I really can't recommend Persona 4 enough. It's my favorite game of all time and I'm sure it would hit the itch you have.
http://www.amazon.com/Shin-Megami-Tensei-IV-Nintendo-3DS/dp/B00C1ZBFTW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406760728&sr=8-1&keywords=shin+megami+tensei+iv
Shin Megami Tensei IV and its sequel Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse. You may be familiar with the franchise already, the popular Persona 5 is a part of it.
My other big recommendation is Bravely Default, and its sequel Bravely Second. The combat is also the most impressive thing about the game, and its hard to explain, so try the free demo for either game on the eShop. If you do try the Demo, and beat it, it gives you a bonus if you play the full game. Both are fantastic games, and are throwbacks to classic Final Fantasy games of the NES and SNES era. If you do try either demo and beat it, it will unlock a bonus in its own full game.
Here's the Amazon link.
Basically, it's a bit like Pokemon in the sense that you can recruit demons to your team. Though to get them, you have to do more than just catch them. You have to talk to them and hopefully choose the right answer(s) to their questions.
My understanding with the story is that you are a samurai who is tasked with protecting your kingdom. The series usually has a rather mature storyline (not mature as in sexual or crude humor). I played the third one on the PS2 when it came out and fell in love with how the story was done and how the choices you make can influence the ending.
I got this pouch: http://smile.amazon.com/Monster-Hunter-3DS-Pouch-emblem-Nintendo/dp/B00D84DRNC/ref=pd_sim_sbs_vg_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=0E3GKB3FNZ90F7SEP03F I fucking love it, it's roomy, and it looks good.
Well there is this pouch for the 3ds xl.
It does if you have one of these. It has a metal ring in the back you can clip a carabiner onto.
http://www.amazon.com/Monster-Hunter-3DS-Pouch-emblem-Nintendo/dp/B00D84DRNC
Hey guys, thanks for linking the product. It's not like I had to look for it or anything and order my own.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D84DRNC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
If you're into monster hunter this is a pretty good pouch.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D84DRNC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It has two pockets inside for cartridges, but I found it easily holds a 3DS XL in the hori duraflex shell, a hori 6 cartridge game case, a small microfiber cloth, and the 3DS charger with some room to spare.
You could also try searching Amazon for 3DS LL pouches/cases as the 3DS XL is referred to as the 3DS LL in Japan.

Here's a thing from amazon. Thanks for the contest!
You can find the 3DS from Amazon here. Not sure if you can find it cheap elsewhere.
On my main list I have The Journey art book because it was one of the most beautiful games I have ever played and I love art books.
From my videogame list I have a Wiimote plus because my add on plus thinger makes Link run in circles. XD
These shoes from my Little Black Dress list because I like to be pretty XD
On my Zelda list I have this soundtrack because music is fun.
Puppy toy from my puppy list because she destroys her soft toys and these dragons are the only things that hold up for a while.
I dont have a highest on my Funko List because I can't choose.
This Pikachu is my highest on my 5 dollars and less because I have wanted this card since childhood.
On my DVD list I have Kiki's Delivery Service and From Up On Poppy Hill because I love Studio Ghibli.
On my cosplay list I have this sweater for a cosplay that I'm doing in April.
On my Big Dreams list I have the Zelda 3DS bundle and the PS4 because drools...I enjoy video games. Haha.
On my art list I have these markers because markers are my one of my favorite mediums.
....I have a lot of lists TT_TT
Picked up the gold/black Link Between Worlds edition 3DS last Black Friday, and I wanted to be able to both protect it while showing it off.
Went with the clear Hori Duraflexi case, a screen protector, and the Hori Hard Pouch to store the system while in sleep mode. Sure the Duraflexi will protect most of the surface of the clam shell from scratches, but I wanted to ensure the hinge section didn't get messed up while nabbing Street Passes in my backpack.
There ya go

I completely failed to actually read your question and assumed you had asked about the cost of getting it fixed. Replacing a limited edition 3DS is an ever fluctuating cost. I'd estimate somewhere in the low to mid 200s though.

I agree with /u/Seamus9999. The most recent "generation" of Pokémon games are the most accessible they have ever been, and they are a great place for new players to start. You would be fine picking Pokémon X, Y, Omega Ruby, or Alpha Sapphire.

Although, TBH, for $14, it seems worth the risk, if it's covered by Amazon's return policy. Keep us posted!

Whether or not you have a New 3DS is actually irrelevant, there's an official Amiibo-Reader just for this Scenario.
Just wanted to point that out, is all
https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-NFC-Reader-Writer-Accessory-3DS/dp/B01307Q6ZC
With the cards, you can invite more villagers to a home and they will roam around and they can be part of the photos you take. It's a nice little feature that makes the cards a bit worth it.
It's currently 3 dollars off on Amazon if you're interested.
The Japanese one on Amazon for ~$32 (it's not a region locked device), twelve bucks is about the lowest mark up I've seen.

You can also keep an eye out for the Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer Bundle with NFC Reader, it'll pop up on eBay sometimes, but there's usually at least a 20 dollar mark-up from the $50 it went for on release.
The US version sold directly from Amazon is currently $16.99.
Amazon has Ocarina of Time 3D for $15 right now. Not a huge discount, but as low as I've ever seen. It was enough to convince me, anyway.
Why does Amazon say that it will release on Dec. 30 though ? Is that just them not having updated yet ?
Amazon has it for $31.99.

Might fit the bill then. I have a different Butterfox case and I really like it.
I can't find any that have the foam stuff with cutouts inside of it.
Lol sure thing: Butterfox Nintendo Switch Carry-all Bag Case with Storage for Dock, AC Adapter and Switch Pro-controller - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZZWV6YX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_88kgAbJP1CR5Y
I believe the carrying case can go inside this. Which is why I'm pretty stoked about it.
https://www.amazon.com/Butterfox-Nintendo-Carry-all-Storage-Pro-controller/dp/B06ZZWV6YX
This looks promising too. :)
I got two cases for my Switch. I got this for my system and games, then picked up this for when I want to bring along my dock and other accessories. Both have been fantastic.
edit: also, the first case is made to fit within the carrying case.
Or just put your cat in this.

I Went the old shool rout and got one of those starter kits and this https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B06ZZWV6YX/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 best part is you can put a hori game card holder in the ziper part too!
I picked this up a few weeks ago:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0711K97BS/
It's fine. Nothing special, feels slightly cheap (which matches the cost), but it holds what I need and keeps it secure. If I were a frequent traveler or took my Switch with me a bunch of places I would upgrade, but for a once every week or two trip out of the house, it is enough.
I'm trying to decide this myself. Currently my frontrunner is this one, but I could be convinced otherwise if anyone has a case they really love.
heres one with more game card holders and a zipper for where the accesories go for $11.99
Here's a good case: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0711K97BS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I use this and this and it fits well enough. I can also fit my charger and joycon straps in the zipper part.
Only thing about that carrying case is mine had a pretty strong odor for a while, but it did go away.
I planned to be digital-only, but came across a couple good deals on games that I don't necessarily need/want constant immediate access to ($15 for Lego City Undercover? Why not?). Plus my 200GB SD card is filling up quick. So I've ended up in a kind of "digital-mostly" middle ground. So I'm glad I got a case that holds carts as well. I got this one and it's fantastic: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0711K97BS
I guess you could keep multiple SD cards and swap them out for rarely played digital games though.
Thanks!

Get a New 2DS XL. I like the Pokeball edition
And the Hylian Shield
New 3DS XL Snes Edition
you do realize it's a real thing right?
The SNES Edition New 3DXL is $149.99 on Amazon. Haven't seen any other deals.
Not very many, if any, games need 3D. It's the only major difference worth noting - they play all the same games.
Worth noting that on Amazon, you can get a New 3DS XL for the MSRP price of the New 2DS XL.
One more thing - New 3DS XL systems don't come with AC adapters, New 2DS XL do.

If it had to choose something it would probably be the Nintendo New 3DS XL Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Limited Edition Gold/Black www.amazon.com/dp/B00S8IGG4U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_BMuhyb5TWSA34

Amiibo + This stupidly rare accessory. If its a normal 2ds.
If its a "new" 2ds XL, you can tap amiibo to the touch screen.
OR, you can just open your switch Mii maker menu and other Mii maker menus at the same time and copy the options you selected to design them.
Unfortunately there isnt a means of getting them off the wii without a Wii U.
You'll need this
I thought a used one would be a lot less but then I see stuff like this https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B01307Q6ZC/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used
I guess I will just get a new one.
It doesn't cost $90. The dongle costs $20 new and Ocarina of Time costs $20 new. So, $40, the cost of a single 3DS game.
And if you're too cheap for that, there's a list of people willing to mail their pre-hacked cartridges out for you to borrow and them return or do it in person if you're close enough.
Your options are: Freakyforms Deluxe, a Powersaves with a physical copy of either OoT, SMD, or ORAS, or a Sky3DS.
With Freakyforms, how it works is you scan a QR code that crashes the game and loads the homebrew launcher. With the Powersaves exploits, you write a hacked save to the cart, load the save, and then initiate a similar crash that's game-specific (e.g., changing your secret team name in ORAS). In both cases, the homebrew launcher needs to be copy/pasted to your SD card, adding boot.3dsx and /3ds/ to the root.
Edit: More info on the homebrew launcher is here. The exploits listed above are, in order, freakyhax, OoThax, SMChax, and basehax.
Just curious do you know why though they both look like the same game, one is twice the price of the other?

This version of Oot seems to be new. Has anyone confirmed if OotHax works with it?
So to confirm, if I get one of the games, it has to be the physical cartridge (not eshop)? And then I also need a powersave as well? Is that another physical thing I have to buy, or it is just a download?
Additionally, if I go with the Ocarina of Time method (since it's the cheapest one and it's the only one I'd have any interest in as an actual game), does it matter if I have the "Nintendo Selects" version (which is cheaper), or do I need the one that doesn't say that? Is there even a difference?
Walmart currently has both colors, each at $129.99. Free shipping if you don't want to pick up in store.
Just bought a black/turquoise one from their online store last week.
I'm sure they'll price match in storeedit: they wont do it in-store, but they claim they will online, but even if they don't it's still discounted by twenty bucks.Also, Ocarina of Time 3D is on sale for $16 on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AC3ZDCE/

Payed $0, and got the code 20 seconds later.
Good question. If you look at a page that has the promotion (under Special Offers and Product Promotions at the bottom) and click on "You will receive your code by email within 2 business days. Here's how (restrictions apply)", the last line says Offer only applies when shipped and sold by Amazon.com.
Also, if you scroll to the bottom of that page, you will see that the promotion is not listed under special offers and promotions.
I would suggest getting things they could share! Since DS's are kind of pricey, you could get one for them to share, like the 2DS then get them each their own game(s). You could get Pokemon Sun/Moon for Rylee, and Brain Quest or Big Brain Academy for Trinity
You can try buying codes from PCGameSupply. I live in Jordan with no access to NA eshsop codes, bought from them to buy Ace Attorney and they deliver by email in matters of minutes after the payment goes through.
Alternatively you can buy the Pokémon Sun NA code from Amazon
Pokemon Sun appears to be $29.99 on Amazon again.
Well, almost all Pokemon games have been on some kind of sale recently.
Dang, That's how much Amazon has it for sale and it's brand new. If you have Amazon Prime like I do it's free shipping too. It's actually costs $39.82.
Easy solution to that, man.

Hello shrimp of tiny proportion, I, as you can read, am Tbshirk. I'm a frequenter on this subreddit and have entered giveaways, and hosted some myself. Firstly, I would like to thank you for this giveaway. Even if I don't win, you're going to make somebody very happy. You're doing a great thing. Oh, and I'm entering for Pokemon Sun. Amazon Link
I want it for a pretty simple reason. Pokemon fucking rocks, and it's fun as hell! To go into a little more depth, I played Pokemon a TON as a kid. Pretty much non-stop. Anyway, now that Sun and Moon are out, I feel the need to get back into it. Not only that, but I'm going to try to complete a Living Shinydex, which will very well take me years upon years to complete, but I am extremely determined.
Thank you so much for this giveaway and I hope you, and the readers have a fantastic Thanksgiving and holiday season in general.
There's only a couple brick and mortar stores still selling Western import games in Tokyo and you can usually expect to pay around a 20% premium (at least) on the US sticker price, never mind the exchange rate.
Hell, you can even find stores selling North American Sun & Moon on Amazon Japan at retail price.
I can get all that to fit in the Butterfox Carry all case (rest the pro controller on top of the dock, a little snug but I've had no issues with it so far.
https://www.amazon.com/Butterfox-Nintendo-Carry-all-Storage-Pro-controller/dp/B06ZZWV6YX/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1510773643&sr=8-9&keywords=nintendo+switch+bag
Hey I am looking for a new travel bag for my switch and accessories. I currently have carry bag, and this body case. I like this setup as often when I am away from home, I play my switch handheld in the bed. Once I am done, I like putting back in the body case on the night stand or use the case for when I am just moving around a house/room. The carry bag worked cause it held the switch in the case, pro controller, power cord, and the joycons edges, all while being easy to carry or small enough to fit into a small duffel bag.
​
However, more and more of late I keep finding myself wishing that I brought the dock too and/or the joycon grip. There is no room in the carry bag and I don't like putting the dock in the duffel as I fear it getting crunched accidentally. Anybody recommend a bag that can hold the switch in the body case, while having room for the pro controller (and joycon grip if possible but not needed), dock, power adapter, and HDMI cable securely and safely for the devices without being the size of a messenger bag? If I need another case for the switch handheld itself, that's fine, I just prefer the harder shelled ones. Really if my current bag was just a couple inches thicker to hold the dock too it would be perfect, but it cannot.
​
Thank you!
I don't have it but imo this is a good investment
https://www.amazon.ca/Butterfox-Nintendo-Carry-all-Storage-Pro-controller/dp/B06ZZWV6YX
More space for the dock part since you won't be bringing it with you

Or something like this may work, depending on the size of the Hori:

Or this seems roomy (still a bag):. Butterfox Nintendo Switch Carry-all Bag Case with Storage for Dock, AC Adapter and Switch Pro-controller - Black
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZZWV6YX/
Someone craftier than I should make a Switch carryall that looks like a fishing tacklebox and sell them on Etsy.
Edit: I just realized that you don't want to carry the dock around with you. My bad, but I'm leaving these up cuz they're still cool cases.
There are some cases that will fit a dock, I have this one and I'm pretty satisfied with it. It fits the official dock, all the cords, and a bunch of controllers if you want. I actually keep my Switch itself in a separate case and put it in my backpack, but that's just my preference. You can put your Switch and the dock in this travel bag all together if you want.
The other option that seems fine is the Insignia-brand dock from Best Buy. There haven't been any reports of that dock frying your system when used properly (there was one of a guy who fried his system by using an Insignia dock with a Nintendo AC adapter, but using the Insignia dock with the Insignia adapter hasn't had any reported brickings). Definitely avoid the Nyko dock though.
Same problem here. Guessing someone will produce one when smash is released and there is increased demand.

I have this travel case and it's a pretty great case. Easy to put the switch in(it fits with the joycons already on), 20 cartridge slots for games, and the zipper pocket which should be big enough for an extra set of joycons or two + a bit more like some cords.

I'm selling the following:
So what do you think a fair asking price for all that would be?
I was thinking:

I have the updated Butterfox case, and love it. I just realized the link you provided [here] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0711K97BS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_djwKPhOzNL1Dy) is a blatant ripoff of the butterfox one unless its a reseller but I never herd of Hestia, and they are using the pictures from the Butterfox case. Unless i'm clearly missing something?
Hi, I'm thinking about picking up a carrying case for my switch (something I could keep in my backpack that wouldn't get flattened by my books) and I've narrowed my search down to three cases. Which would you say is the best option?

What do you think if this case?
I'm looking to buy a Switch case and I am having trouble deciding which one to go with. The Hestia Goods case looks good but I'm skeptical of the quality because of the low price. The RDS case also looks good but slightly more expensive.
Which one should I go with? Additionally, do either of these cases hold the charger well?
I have the Hestia Version of that case. I love it.

Amazon is selling their exclusive 3DS XL for $150 — https://smile.amazon.com/Nintendo-New-3DS-XL-Super-Mario/dp/B076KRDRQG
You can also get them for that much from Nintendo refurbished (basically new) if you rather have a black one and not the SNES design.
The 3DS has nicer build quality, better speakers, but is heavier. Some people like the 2DS XL for less hand/wrist fatigue.
If you go for the 2DS XL make sure you get one of the new SKUs that include Mario Kart 7! :)
yep--i see it too; as long as its this one here https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-New-3DS-XL-Super-Mario/dp/B076KRDRQG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1542757851&sr=8-1&keywords=snes%2B3ds&th=1

You can’t go wrong with the Switch, though. I play it everyday.
The official case is pretty good. It's not too thick and can store two games plus the one in the 3DS. Might be a bit hard to find, though.
Yup. I use the Nintendo Licensed Executive Case. Holds a spare stylus and a couple of carts. Keeps my 3DS safe from scratches in my backpack and it looks snazzy as fuck :p
I got this one. Works fine for me.
Yeah, I think you'll be happy with it when you hold it for yourself. You can rest easy those concerns about it being too small for someone with big hands.
The balance between the top and bottom pieces of the system is much more even on the standard size compared to the XL and, to me, it's more comfortable to hold especially if I'm playing while lying down or something.
I'm more into the matte finish as well and tbh I really don't care about screen size at the end of the day. 3DS has such a great library but they aren't HD graphics or anything so I don't notice after awhile. I played a 2DS for a couple months and the tiny screens on that didn't really matter to me all that much. (The XL screens make the games look less crisp in my experience.)
When I'm in the mood for great graphics, I play on PS4 or PC.
Also, this might be something you are interested in:

I use this case for my new 3DS. It's meant for original 3DS but the new one still fits fine. It has space for 2 games and the build quality is pretty good.
Nintendo Official Executive Case for 3DS https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004JLO65Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_2F.gyb85B9N0F
I found this at GameStop on clearance for $10 along with screen protectors and a car charger.
This is what I use now. It's pretty good but I'm gonna buy this one as soon as it launches.
I have one of these. It says it only holds 2 games but I double down and fit 4 into the case + a game in the 3ds itself. haven't lost a game yet
Just a case:

It was $5 including shipping on Amazon.
Carrying Case
I bought this one and I like it because it is cheap, inexpensive, holds 2 cartridges and the 3DS securely and doesn't have a large footprint. It is very portable and can be placed in any bag. It is a minimalist approach to carrying your 3DS around and I am a minimalist kind of guy.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004JLO65Q/ref=mp_s_a_1_21?qid=1457340014&sr=8-21&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=3ds+case&dpPl=1&dpID=41qaHyWy5gL&ref=plSrch
Unless you want to play GBA games, don't bother with a DS Lite. You will only regret it later and a 3DS or 2DS can be found fairly cheaply.
If you are concerned about battery life and maybe even accessories, the 3DS may be the best choice for you. The default battery life of the 3DS XL may be a little better, but you can buy 3rd party battery packs like the Nyko Power Pak+ that you will find many on this subreddit swear by and it is very cheap for the extra punch it gives. I wish one were available for my XL, but there are no better battery options (within a reasonable price range) for the XL.
I like my XL personally, but it sounds like you don't really like it and that decision is definitely up to you. I found the regular 3DS was too small for me (I owned a near-launch console) and I didn't like the build quality of it. Specifically the Start, Select, and Home buttons.
I cannot speak for the 2DS, but I don't know if I would let the Mono speaker be a deal breaker for you. The speakers on the 3DS and 3DS XL are fairly terrible anyway. I've always thought the ones on my DS Lite have sounded better personally.
If you bought a normal 3DS I recommend buying the Nyko Power Pak +
It doubled my 3Ds's battery life and I think it makes the console easier to grip. Very cheap too.
I wanted to buy the Nyko Power Grip. But it wasn't available when I ordered :(
I can't comment on it but 3x the battery life seemed very cool. Especially when the power pak legit doubles the battery life...
It's the only thing keeping me from upgrading to an XL. I don't want to sacrifice the battery life /: First world problems...
It is one of these, i can send a picture of one on a 3ds if you want

>Just purchase an aftermarket DSi battery with higher mAh capacity.
Beware of the "higher capacity" listings
Many times you'll see a battery that offers twice the capacity of the original, but in reality, those tend to just be the same capacity, or less.
Rule of thumb: If it claims to be an extended battery, and it's not significantly (psychically) larger, The capacity is fake.
Sure, you could squeeze in a few extra mah's in, and keep it the same size so it will fit in your ds/dsi, But if it claims to be 30+% larger, you'd need to increase the size of the battery.
http://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Power-Pak-3DS-Nintendo/dp/B004SJA7L6/ref=sr_1_3?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1373099393&sr=1-3&keywords=3ds+battery+extender
I can confirm that Nyko's products do give the 3DS battery quite the boost. I think mine went from about 6 hours on 3DS games (low brightness, no wifi, power saver mode) to about 11-13. And DS games go about 15-16 too. This one is a smaller model of the power grip, and actually made the console quite a bit more comfy for someone like me with big hands. Your choice!
For those of you that want to extend battery life, this third-party battery has been working great for me! I get about 8hrs of gameplay instead of 3-4hrs.
Heavy Rain. I will prepare for the onslaught of downvotes, but I have never felt as emotionally invested in ANYTHING as I have to that game!
Mario Kart 7 would be great - my bf and I play 3DS games together and this one would be perfect! Failing that, Luigi's Mansion.
Eggplant Wizard
bunnicula
Im guessing you have a 3ds because you have 3ds games on your WL so I say you should get Mario Kart 7 why you ask? well I have mario kart 7 and I will give you my friend code and we can play together!!!
and what do I want? well I know its .99 over but from looking at your WL I think you will understand why I want it.

Bonus: Capes are for superheros and they need them to fly. It is known. But what most people do not know is that while they need the cape to fly, they need sour candies to stay in the air. It's a real conundrum with the scientists over why. Why are sour candies the fuel that keep them afloat ? It just is. It is known.

Heard Tales of Abyss is a GREAT Rpg, and so is Fire Emblem and Shin Megami Tensei 4 (these are things I've heard.)Mario Kart 7, Animal Crossing (I know you said you like RPG games more, but i really like these games.) Any of the DS Pokemon games are pretty darn good and Tomorrow Mario & Luigi Dream Team Is coming out!

Thank you for the contest
My favorite game is Pokemon BUT since I'm currently working on one, Mario Kart 7 is my second. I need this game because I've been playing MK for as long as I can remember but I haven't had the opportunity to play this one yet. Used is always good for me. In fact, I encourage used when it comes to videogames. Thank you so much for the contest.
How much would a black Nintendo 3DS (original, not XL) sell for, with this 5,000 mAh battery that I currently have installed? I still have the original back cover and battery that I can reinstall if needed.
You can purchase an extended battery for your 3DS - this requires opening up the back of the system though, and takes a bit of hardware know-how.

If you're worried about portability and battery life, get an original 3DS (the glossy one that can fold and always has black around the screen).
https://store.nintendo.com/ng3/browse/subcategory.jsp?categoryId=cat20003
You can get refurbished units for relatively cheap, and you can disable the 3D with parental controls if it bothers you. And there's more battery extenders for the original 3DS than there are for the 2DS. Look up the Nyko Power Grip, or get an extended battery like this:

And as for flash cards, yeah R4 only runs original DS games, not 3DS, and flash cards that do run 3DS software are either limited to certain firmwares or are very expensive.
The original is pretty much perfect for my hands. They’re just slightly bigger now. As for the XL, it’s just uncomfortable for me since it’s hard to hit the bumpers and it takes a little more work just to multitask (lowering my hand to get to the dpad, add more pressure to face buttons. I mean, I use my middle fingers just to use the bumpers sometimes!)
Besides that, I need a new battery anyway. What if I get one of the bulky ones so my hands won’t feel crammed together and making my hand position feel more natural? Maybe this one? It’s not too big

The best investment I made for my 3ds. Generic 5000mAh extended battery. Only $25 provides 4x the battery of the original 3ds
The best investment I made for my 3ds XL. Mugen 5800mAh extended battery. More expensive than the generic one above, but well worth it IMHO ~3x battery life.

I have had similar interests myself in order to build a custom frame for my N3DS-XL to house this extended battery pack - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NJ2UEW (for a normal N3DS). Looking around These are the best resources I've found so far to start from:
Face-plate - https://grabcad.com/library/3ds-cover-1
Generic 3DS model - http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:246100
Battery grip spacer - http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:683341
None of these appear to be exactly what I would need to do my own project, so its probably up to me and a pair of calipers to get precise measurements for. Hope these help.
It's not the same physical size, and adds weight and bulk, but I grabbed an aftermarket one from amazon for ~$25, and now I get a solid week from my 3ds.

FYI to both of you, you can get a special battery thing on amazon for about 20$ that will up your gameplay time on a 3DS to somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 hours. I have one, and it's an absolute godsend, here is the link
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0093W7KG8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_3M2HybKFHP2Q4
I have a similar case on my New 3DS. It seems like it holds the hinges tightly. It's one of those cases that has its own hinges, like the Nerf ones.
try this maybe?

articfawx mentioned that you should pick up a screen protector and I agree. Best Buy should have them for less than 20 bucks and they cover the top and bottom screens, so you'll almost never have to worry about having your system damaged.
Another really necessary thing I would recomend is buying one of these as they're going to keep the paint and everything from getting scratched without putting a big stupid NERF case on it.
So yeah, Screen cases and a Crystal Case will greatly reduce the ammount of damage you'r 3DS will take. And believe me, it will take some damage. It just happens.
grab a skin, this site is great, It'll cover the hole, and the skin is pretty sturdy
http://www.gelaskins.com/store/gaming/Nintendo_3DS_XL/collection/Most_Popular
then I'd toss one of these for extra protection
http://www.amazon.ca/eForCity-Crystal-Compatible-Nintendo-Clear/dp/B0093W7KG8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1376763958&sr=8-1&keywords=3ds+xl+clear+case
Do you need it for the original 3ds xl, or the "new" 3ds xl?
Edit: either way, here is the original on amazon
And the "new," also on amazon
Edit #2: you don't mean the housing shell, do you?
I also have a Pikachu 3DS XL, and I was wondering if you have any worries about rubbing or scratching with this type of case? I have a clear plastic case for my DSLite, and I really wanted to get one to protect my PikaXL, but one of the reviews on Amazon for a similar case mentioned that some of the paint had been rubbed off their 3DS along one of the sides, where the plastic case was rubbing against the console.
I'm probably just worrying too much about it, but I thought I'd ask if you noticed anything similar that could scratch up the cool paintjob.
Your best bet is a clear plastic case that has an external hinge on it. You can also get a nerf one for a little bit more.
My wife's old DS did this, and that was our solution. Then mine broke too. That hinge is the weakest part of the design, and it breaks often. I think the lights being 'inside' it make it structurally thinner/weaker.
I bought these 2 items a long time ago and they've been awesome, very worthwhile purchases.

I recommend these to anyone looking for some good products at an affordable price.
Edit: Also, my crystal case hasn't turned yellow and I've had it for a year, so I recommend this over the Hori case + it's way cheaper.
So in the Shin Megami Tensei 'main series', Shin Megami Tensei IV (SMTIV) is the fourth game without any significant story ties to the other main series games.
In terms of SMTIV, there are two games: SMTIV the original game, and SMTIV Apocalypse, its sequel. The sequel involves some story elements from the original game, so you probably want to play the original game first.
Here's some basic info: both of them are turn-based RPGs, and the difficulty level is rather high compared to most of the other games on the 3DS. Especially the beginning of SMTIV. Be prepared to die, maybe often. Also, the story is pretty important in this series, so I would suggest playing them in order. The games are both very good, but Apocalypse might be slightly better? I think it's just personal preference. Either way, I'd play both.
I'm interested in your Zelda Collector's Edition as long is it plays fine. I can offer Lunar: Dragon Song CIB for DS, Shin Migami Tensei IV (Game & Box only) for 3DS, and Final Fantasy III CIB for DS if you're interested in any of those.

If you purchased from this link, it should be a limited edition. Since most of the physical copies in NA are limited edtions.
Is this the page you ordered from?So I would think this means you simply ordered too late and Amazon has run out of first print editions. Might want to contact them and try your luck at a refund and source other retailers if you want the CD and book.http://www.amazon.com/Shin-Megami-Tensei-IV-Nintendo-3DS/dp/B00C1ZBFTW
Isn't the physical cheaper than the digital anyways?
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1skDyiOERxP59scq4a7nxDl1-ZebNlnFnBuhZgrA1E4A/edit#gid=127753777
Never mind.
Digital was $15.
I missed this. :(
Just to make sure, would that be this this game?
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00C1ZBFTW
Why the price difference though? This was from a few weeks back when I had received my copy. At the time, I didn't realize that all first print copies would be the limited edition and I was struggling with figuring out which one to order. Not to mention that when I placed the order, the "regular" one didn't have the "limited edition" verbiage on it, much like the link above. I ordered the "regular edition" as I didn't want to pay that high price for the limited one. When I got the package in the mail, I had received the limited edition. I guess I'm confused as to why the one that is advertised as "limited edition" is priced up like that if they are the same. Is it an amazon marketplace type thing? Do they usually keep track of stock on items sold by third parties?
So, it looks like I can use my MonHun case if I pop off the joy-cons....interesting.

This one if pretty great
By case do you mean a 3DS pouch or bag?
If so, I hear this Monster Hunter pouch can hold two 3DS XLs inside of it.
I ordered it from World Impact Japan via Amazon. Here's a link to retailers selling it. I live in the UK, but I'm pretty sure it will be the same thing if you live elsewhere.
HORI also makes a Duraflexi TPU case for the n3DS for what it's worth (which is also clear, but textured on the inside giving it an ever so slightly cloudy appearance), not just screen protectors.
And if you're the kind of person who is into pouches, this Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate pouch is pretty awesome I think.
Buy yourself Smash for 3DS!! It comes out on Friday (the day the contest ends! IT'S A SIGN!!) and it is going to be fantastic (Source: I've played the demo lots). Smash is addicting fun, and it lets you battle online, so you could even battle against your fellow RAOAers that get it! It's going to keep you entertained for a while, so what's to lost? Treat yourself and get it!
As for me, I would LOVE to receive this HDMI 3-port switch device. I just found out these things exist, and this would make my life insanely easier. I don't have enough HDMI ports on my TV, so I always have to flip it around, unplug, and replug to get things to work. This eliminates that! So, you're buying something that will get constant use and make my life a bit easier! :)
Thanks for the contest! This is awesome of you :) Batman Suit.
e-shop question:
My 3ds is imported from amazon, it is of the "U" region (Ver. 11.1.0-34U)
--Ignore This if you think that more background is not needed--
but my country is Venezuela (my real one), here we have the e-shop locked so we can't buy games or download demos, not even the freeware like Pokémon Rumble World. we can only download updates.
--Now, The Question is.--
If i buy a download code on amazon (like https://www.amazon.com/Super-Smash-Bros-Nintendo-3DS/dp/B00DD0B1R0/?th=1) it would work on my e-shop ? (or, it would be a waste and the code would not give me a digital download ?)

It's on the American Amazon as not yet available, I've ordered stuff from it to Canada before, but I'm not sure if games are included in that. Check it out anyway.
Or keep an eye out on Amazon.ca for it. Basically, what I'm saying is if it's on Amazon.com, it shouldn't be EB exclusive.
I preordered mine at EB though, I don't care, they are still going to be around, with or without my money, so if they have something I want that, apparently, no one else is offering, I'll take it.
Newegg also lists the Wii U version as having a December 31st, 2014 release date, which I'm hesitant to believe, but here's the link anyways.
Amazon also has both products listed for preorder. Wii U and 3DS. While it doesn't have a release date, if memory serves me right, Amazon will not allow pre-orders unless it knows a release date of some sort.
Also putting a picture here to show the release date, in case Nintendo finds it and takes it down.
An excellent choice! Please add it to your wishlist, here is the link:

I am getting ready to leave for Disney World!
Yeah, this would be the perfect reward for anyone who loves games haha. I absolutely love LoZ games, and a limited edition console that is GOLD is a must have for every gamer! Especially since the 3DS seems to have tons of awesome games out for it now!
Your 3DS model is currently going for $180 used on Amazon.com. Also those games could go for $10-20 each.
I have an unopened Nintendo 3DSXL Link Between Worlds edition that I'm looking to off load. I can get you photos later on tonight.
I bought one of these back when they were only $189. I haven't opened it yet because I've been using my other blue Pokemon 3ds XL. On the plus side if I wait a few years I can sell it for twice what I paid for it.
I really don't ever know what to say on these, so here's the link.
As for what to say, you're incredibly generous and kind OP. Most people wouldn't do something like this after running into a lot of money. No matter who you pick, you're incredible.

Since this one says that it's Fulfilled by Amazon, does it mean that this reseller is reliable enough, then?
Also, why did both you and Rhyme mention repairing? Do 3DS systems break down every so often? My DS lite still works like a charm with zero problem, minus the degraded battery.
Based on amazon prices starting at $210 without game, I would be getting ~$190 there after fees and shipping, without any games.
So I'd offer $180+ship for the Zelda 3ds xl + link between worlds (DLC, tied to NNID).
Just checked.
Current prices from Amazon US and ebay US in USD. Summer 2016.
[Y Version](https://amzn.com/B00KI2OZ9M) and Omega Ruby are roughly the same price as when they launched at $39.99. If anything they're a few dollars cheaper due to slight age and price fluctuation.
But a game like Black Version 2 is about $60 new and $45 used. It is a last gen game and no longer in production.
And finally the worst example, and the game that many people want to play, is the English version of HeartGold and SoulSilver. Price fluctuates around $100 for new and used English games.
Amazon /// ebay
Japanese imported versions are much cheaper, $30 on Amazon. Sadly, only the current gen of Pokemon Games has language options. For the other 5 generations you need to buy the game in your language; or learn Japanese.
Oh my lord! You have missed out on a ton. So for the DS line, HG and SS are the best. The issue is that it's fairly expensive to buy even today. Diamond and pearl were pretty great and as much as platinum is a successor to them, its story is a bit different. Black and white are pretty fantastic. They added more motion to the pokemon during battles. Now if we are getting into the 3DS/2DS games theres a few things to note. I personally though the story of X and Y was really weak and childish compared to the other games. It just felt so far off. OR/AS would be familiar as it's the same story for ruby and sapphire previously but they added a TON of content. Sun and Moon change a lot of stuff. The areas feel more natural and gym battles have been phased out for trials. They were pretty solid games. Okay so if you are debating on buying a 2DS or a 3DS the one thing to keep in is which version are you getting of each. So if you are buying the original 2DS or 3DS you will notice big frame drops during fights in all of the 3DS games. The new 2DS XL has improved hardware to play the games smoothly and will be a bit cheaper than buying the new 3DS. That's pretty much all of my opinions and thoughts on the games.

I think I listed everything you need. If you want the other variant of each game I'm sure itll be listed near the one provided. Pokemon games dont depreciate in price very much so it might get a little expensive. Good luck and and enjoy a fantastic series!
No problem. Just as an example, this would be okay:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KI2OZ9M/
Good eye, but I don't believe it makes a difference.
On Amazon.com - There is the option for Alpha Sapphire, Dual Pack and Omega Ruby
On Amazon.ca - Only options are Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby.
Then on BestBuy.com - Searching Pokemon in video games there is the Dual Pack.
Bestbuy.ca No Dual Pack
But it is the day of the announcement, so maybe in the coming days the Canadian sites will be updated.
Edit - Fixed format
It depends on what the nephews like. If they are more interested in the cards, then this is an excellent gift.
But, if they are more interested in the video games, you might want to ask them if they have the 3DS (the handheld device), and, if they do, get them the latest games that came out just a month ago: Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire
I'm not seeing it anywhere for that price. Link for the lazy.
Since it was already corrected on Walmart, I'm guessing it's only a matter of time before Amazon switches back, but it's still showing
$26.85 right now.http://www.amazon.com/Pok%C3%A9mon-Omega-Ruby-Nintendo-3DS/dp/B00KI2OZ9M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421875274&sr=8-1&keywords=Pokemon+Omega+Ruby

Here's the link https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-AC-Adapter-Nintendo-3DS-2DS/dp/B01MDQP1ZU
It would be nice to know if this has the correct voltage (4.6V) and amperage (900mA). Other chargers don't have this voltage (usually 5V instead) and that causes a great deal of concern for me.
My personal advice is to always stick with 1st party for power chargers - it's too important. A bad power supply is not something to trifle with. Besides, the official charger can actually be had for around the same price used: https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00L59D9HG/ref=dp_olp_all_mbc?ie=UTF8&condition=all
Just buy a new original one while you can still get one. They're not very expensive
https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-3DS-Compatible-XL-2DS-Adapter/dp/B00L59D9HG?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_2
Was debating getting a 2XL or a refurbished N3XL for me and my sister but found a new N3XL for $175 on Amazon. $50 more than getting two 2XLs but, brand new, 3d feature is there if needed, better speakers, and longer battery life (several reviews have mentioned 2XL has shorter battery life).
So, I'm on the hunt for some accessories and was wondering if ya'll could help me pick some out.
Charger Will need 2 of these.
Charger | Price
---|---
Wall Charger | $8
HDE 3 Pack USB | $8
HDE 2 Pack USB | $5
Yuyikes USB | $8
Screen Protector Will need 2 of these.
Brand | Price | # of Pairs | # of Reviews | Avg Score
---|---|----|----|----
Hori | $9 | 1 | 1758 | 4.5
iLLumiShield | $7 | 3 | 49 | 4.5
Akwox | $7 | 2 | 125 | 4
Dmax Armor | $6 | 3 | 65 | 4.5
iLLumiShield | $10 | 2 | 49 | 4.5
To late but here is one option
Just stick to the official Nintendo one
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L59D9HG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_dp_uWOnyb62FTG11
The game will be $40, which is the standard price for 3DS games.
The charger is only $8 on Amazon (link here), and should be about the same in stores, give or take.
As for the 3DS itself, there are 3 models currently available. The New 3DS XL is bigger and has larger screens, and goes for $200. The New 3DS (not XL) is the same but slightly smaller, and will be available for $100 on Black Friday. The 2DS does not display games in 3D, but it can play all 3DS games and is the cheapest option at $80.
Hopefully that helps!

Its never good to use a hard plastic on hard plastic. Your asking for scratches. You should always use flexible tpu.
Either of these: https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-3DS-XL-Duraflexi-Protector-Clear/dp/B00GX330XW/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3BTDWGH0R1348&keywords=3ds%2Bxl%2Bduraflexi&qid=1566440065&s=gateway&sprefix=3ds%2Bxl%2Bdur%2Caps%2C209&sr=8-1&th=1

They're the same thing just one is the Japanese Import (which is what I use). Never use hard plastic TPU. If it doesn't scratch your DS it'll get tons of scratches on the outside which make it look terrible. Hori is a good brand for anything relating to the 3DS.

An import but this is pretty close. I think I may hold out for an official us version
You could also get the Japanese one if you wanted it upon release http://www.amazon.com/TPU-Duraflexi-Cover-Nintendo-3DS-Japan/dp/B00NFCCOMW/ref=sr_1_3?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1421779045&sr=1-3&keywords=hori+new+3ds+ll
Is [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Duraflexi-Cover-Nintendo-3DS-Japan-Import/dp/B00NFCCOMW/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top) the one you imported? If not, provide link please and thank you.
OK genuine question here. Why are there so many glowing reviews for the Japan version(www.amazon.com/Duraflexi-Cover-Nintendo-3DS-Japan-Import/dp/B00NFCCOMW/) when compared to the US version, which pretty much everyone says is awful? (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RZ7TC6Y/).
Holy crap.... I am surprised you are not more livid..... In all honesty I would have been very pissed at that point.
Why not get a [new back side] (https://store.nintendo.com/ng3/us/po/browse/productDetailColorSizePicker.jsp?categoryNav=true&navAction=jump&navCount=0&atg.multisite.remap=false&productId=prod560313&categoryId=cat550080) from Nintendo site or the [Hori TPU case] (http://www.amazon.com/HORI-Duraflexi-Clear-Protector-Nintendo-NEW/dp/B00RZ7TC6Y/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1426617674&sr=1-1&keywords=Nintendo+new+3DS+XL+Duraflexi+Protector) or [import it] (http://www.amazon.com/TPU-Duraflexi-Cover-Nintendo-3DS-Japan/dp/B00NFCCOMW/ref=sr_1_3?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1426617674&sr=1-3&keywords=Nintendo+new+3DS+XL+Duraflexi+Protector). Would have at least fixed that cosmetic issue.
Same here, you might be able to save some money by asking Amazon to pay for shipping. They covered next day for me.
This is the cheapest one with possible free shipping from Amazon
When that one's gone, it'll be up to $27.90 for the next 20 units
sorry does this work? I copied the link from the desktop version of the site this time:

/u/R0cketRacc00n suggested that and since it has prime, a lot more tempting for me :D
You need to buy the new duraflex protector for the new 3ds. Old one won't fit.
Here's a video If you want to see what it looks like and how much bulk it adds.
Amazon is currently out of stock of them ATM, and no word of when it's getting them back in. I've heard as late as May.
There is 3rd part (shipped from Amazon) ones available, however they are double the price:
LL is just the Japanese name of XL, and will 100% fit the XL.
So is there a difference between this one you linked and this one ?http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NFCCOMW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I would suggest getting a Clear Duraflexi cover for your shiny 3DS.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NFCCOMW/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_18?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=AK0GQ5PQ7UDXE
I got that one, and it's kept my beautiful Monster Hunter 4U 3DS pristine.
Here is the mobile version of your link
Import it. If you have Amazon prime click "Other Sellers" and filter by those with prime. Use this link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NFCCOMW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Well the Hori Duraflexi clear case is available soon and the extended battery is available by Mugen for the New Nintendo 3ds XL, but no word by Nerf and Nintendo otherwise.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00NFCCOMW/ref=olp_prime_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new&shipPromoFilter=1
This has prime. Order it now and see if you ucan get it by friday
Here's a relavent Amazon link if you're unable to locate it in stores.
The broken one could be fixed with some know how, a tutorial and a new screen. but there could be other damage to the system we are unaware of. You could hack both and manually move the game from one to the other, but that's on the harder side with a working screen. (but mod your 2ds, please. you won't be disappointed... except if you brick it. then you would be). you probably have an account connected to the working 2ds. so you shouldn't try to move the account from the broken one to the working. you have a number of options. but probably your best one is to cut your losses and buy a new copy. try going with a physical version, this one looks good but it's $30.
For my "XL", I purchased this Crystal Case, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0093W7KG8/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 , I was only interested in the casing feature, but the fact that it felt comfortable and "stiffened" (not sure if that's a good word to use" the screen hinges made this purchase non-regrettable.
I'm not sure if this company has the exact casing for the 3DS, but I recommend looking at some YouTube videos of Crystal Casing, and hope for a video that helps you.

Notice the difference? The price in red, the long descriptions, and the page isn't just the product and reviews, there is a lot more info in there. Almost a wiki.
Why is the page I linked to first not like that?
Cause Amazon hasn't released the product officially. What you are seeing is a page showing listings made by individual users/stores. What you are seeing is basically the equivalent of eBay, but within Amazon.
So what should you do?
Refresh the link until it looks like the page of an official product. That's when you pre-order :)!
It's listed by Nintendo.
