Nintendo 3DS XL Handheld System - Black/Blue (Renewed) [Nintendo DS]

I have ordered a Refurbished - Excellent: Nintendo New Galaxy 3DS XL.Through Amazon's shipping, I received this beautiful New Galaxy 3ds xl early! The system had everything with it to get started as I was provided with a charger with the system listing I had chosen through CaveGamers, and it did have the stylus. I've thoroughly inspected the New 3ds xl exterior and interior.The exterior barely any cosmetic wear whatsoever! There's not much that could've been concerning. There was maybe one or two surface level scratches on the top and bottom of the case, but you have to go out of your way to notice or feel them. No chips in the paint and I like how the Galaxy shines!As for the inside of the system, it's also in excellent condition. I tried out all of the buttons and they felt snappy as they should. There wasn't any damage or scratches on the screens or other cosmetic damage that I was able to tell.All that I needed to do was let the system charge as it was dead on arrival. I ordered a replacement battery as I know these systems and their batteries are starting to reach their end cycle. The battery currently in the system looked fine but was barely bloating so I'm upgrading with a new regardless. Either way, the new 3ds xl turned on after getting the battery to full. I was welcomed to the setup screen. The screens were working as intended too, with no dead pixels and the 3D with its tracking is reliable.Overall, the system looked like it was barely used! While I used to have the old 3DS in Red as a kid, this feels so far as a great upgrade! I am impressed with what I received and feel this is what I would've expected. I'm going to relive my childhood!

Awesome. Game Cave always comes through. Product looked great and works perfectly. I'll keep looking out for the Game Cave name when I buy retro hardware. Thanks guys.

I purchased this Nintendo Switch 3DS expecting it to be in excellent condition as stated in the description. However, upon arrival, I noticed several issues. The stylus pen was missing, which was disappointing. Additionally, the screw on the back was chipped/broken, making it impossible to open the panel to insert an SD card. The backboard panel also appeared dirty, which was unexpected for an item listed in excellent condition. Overall, this did not meet my expectations, and I would caution others to verify the condition before purchasing.

I expected it to come in a box but it didn't. Perhaps I didn't read close enough in the description. However it worked perfectly and I don't have any complaints.

My product came in near perfect condition. Highly recommended

Based on the mixed reviews I didn’t expect to get this good of a 3ds I bought mine in “excellent condition” and it looks pretty much brand new. There’s like one tiny tiny scratch that’s not really noticeable unless you look real close so It doesn't really bother me. It came with a stylus and a charger no SD card though which is fine. The charger doesn’t fit in all the way I don’t remember if that’s normal since I hadn’t had a 3ds for awhile but it still works and charges fine so I don’t really care. Oh and the cameras work fine.Update: The charger gave out. (One of the soldered wires in the inside of the charger detached). The charger seemed pretty cheap and light weight from the get go, but I thought it would be fine since it worked in the beginning. I recommend getting another charger before It might give out, just in case. Other than that still no complaints.

October 2024 (Keep reading to see update...)This is my first ever 3DS XL/LL and I am so pleasantly surprised with what I recieved although I did notice a few things that might be notable to others who also plan on buying one. Originally, it was supposed to come in within a week but I ended up recieving it within only 3 days! (This might vary where you live). The 3DS also comes with a standard charger and it was package really neatly covered in bubble wrap within a small box. When I inspected the 3DS I noticed a lot of things especially the back cover which says it's an LL (japanese ver) but when I opened the 3DS up, it wasn't region locked and ran normally like a normal region free 3DS. I also noticed a lot of small dents around the 3DS, the most notable one being the one on the top of the DS where there is a huge visible crack and a hole. There's also smaller dents around the 3DS but they are only really noticable when hit at certain lights since they're quite small. The SD card cover was also slightly more yellowed compared to everything else on the 3DS. These visual effects probably won't even bother me since I plan on adding a case and decorating it but it's important to know/expect that there might be defects or blemishes since it is a renewed game console. Besides that, everything works and it's in great condition!Update: December 2024The touch screen has now given up on me within only 2 months. For something that costed $300, this is disappointing. I've taken care of my 3DS since I first got it. I've never dropped it, played it and stored it in a safe place, even making sure to have a case and screen protectors. Even with the best care, protection, and set up, it still became broken. I have bought another 3DS elsewhere and in comparison, it was more affordable, is lasting me way longer, and looked way nicer with barely no scratches at all. It even came in with its ORIGINAL charger and case. For the second 3DS, I only had to pay $150 which is half the price. Of course there is a solution, to bring it in and have it fixed somewhere or even fix it myself, but a $300 refurbished device that is expected to be in very good conditon, this is disappointing.
