Nintendo 3DS XL - Red/Black (Renewed)

It works and on first inspection it looked completely new. Obviously it's not because it is refurbished, and I held off for a while before reviewing to make sure it worked well. Pros- I've had no major issues with it. Camera works, 3d works, came with a stylus and charger. I haven't tested the mic since I haven't played a game that uses it. Very minimal visible wear, I was honestly surprised by how clean it looked. Cons- The only things I've noticed with it is that the backplate on the side of the "3" sticker is a little loose, assuming it wasn't screwed down properly but it doesn't really affect anything and it's not loose enough to cause issues. There is a few very small specks on the main screen, you can't see them most of the time, but when it's all one solid color behind it, you can see it a little bit. Touch screen can be a bit finicky. Some spots you have to press hard or multiple times for it to register. It isn't a big issue for games I play on it (Mostly Pokémon) and there's only a 2 or 3 spots that it happens to and they're all close to an edge. Overall very happy with what I received and excited to be able to play early Pokémon games from the DS-3DS era just like old times

I bought this item for myself in 2024, kept in its case when not in use and was very careful with it. It began disintegrating almost immediately. Slow cracks at first, but then it started chipping away in critical places.

I've been wanting to get my hands on an original 3ds xl for a while, call it nostalgia. I saw this one on Amazon and thought that even if used as long as it was in good clean workable shape I would be happy. It arrived and it is beautiful. Virtually no scratching or marks on the front or back. I am excited to play on it!

Came in early, felt like I’m playing with my childhood, sadly it says renewed yet I’m certain it’s been used as the stylus holder is stuck a lot and I have to yank it out while also the “a” button feeling heavily used so it’s hard to press it sometimes

It looks brand new and works well, only complaint is that the shell is a little loose and the stylus is a little weird but other than that it s perfect

All in tact, cameras in good condition, charger works fine. Tomodachi life plays good, but volume is not that loud. Pretty good

I really love this system, it has slight scratches on the front and back (as shown in photo), but the inside is perfect, and theres nothing wrong with how its used whatsoever so it is still 5 stars for me, especially since it is refurbished and not brand new. Very happy with the purchase, if you’re a perfectionist in quality from the inside and out I’d recommend a brand new system, but if you’re like me and just want something that works 100% with great screen quality (and no scratches on the inside) then this is great. The charger works too.
