Nintendo’s first major revision of the 3DS released to Japan in October of 2014 and to North America in September of 2015. The 2015 3DS introduces improved 3D capabilities, a C-Stick, new internal amiibo support, and a new set of trigger buttons.

Where can I find complete shells?

Hi there! I had to drill my new 3ds because the screws didn't want to move accordingly, and now I'm sitting with a broken mid and bottom frame. I've searched everywhere and while I did find a middle frame part on a second hand site, I can't find anywhere the bottom part, only shells for XL models. Would you guys know perhaps where can I find housing kits so that I may fix the thing? Thank you!

Hi!

Weird enough, I also can only find them for the XL ones.

I know that there are some crappy shells out there, so be aware and read reviews accordinaly before buying it.

In your case it's probably better to buy a broken (donor) New 3DS and get the shell from there.

It's hard to say where they sell the shell only...

Sorry.

Ah, that's too bad. Glad that they do have something in stock for the New 3DS. But unfortunately it's not the one you need...
