That liquid damaged 2ds board may still be fixable. Soak it in isopropyl, get a toothbrush, and scrub that corrosion off. Could bring it back to life.

It looks to be toast because it hadn't been cleaned and dried right after the liquid ingress so it's probably corroded underneath one or more chips .

I remember my original 3DS which I got off ebay "unused, unwanted christmas present" came with a parental lock on it. Nintendo customer support in the UK made me MAIL IT TO THEM to get it removed and factory reset the device. I didn't really care in the long run since I got a pretty much new 3DS for like half the retail price, and a few years later it was superceded by my New 3DS anyway.

I upgraded to a new 3DS XL and it's kinda sad to see what I always played on a long time ago, is now being unused. It just traps me in an emotional roller coaster seeing all my old videos, pictures, voice recordings and other things I did. Please reply to this comment if you experience the same problems. lol this rant is just about me being a baby because I got a new ds.

There is one potential problem. You need to put the serial number that goes with the working board on it or if you or anyone else tries to do a system transfer with Nintendo it will transfer to the dead board and not the working one you have now.

I remember the 2DS I had been playing with in bed and my dad took the sheets to clean them, but the 2DS got stuck in the sheets and went through the washing machine AND dryer. While I'm sorta glad it went through the dryer right after coming out I'm mostly glad it didn't melt. It didn't work at first when we found out about it, but we left it in rice to more thoroughly dry and my mom bought me an identical one. About a week later when it arrived the old one turned on (it only worked plugged in, the battery couldn't hold a charge anymore) and it lasted long enough for me to connect the new one to the internet and perform a system transfer. Kinda wish my parents sold the parts, it was mostly working aside from some blotches in the screen and the battery having literally gone through the wash. That was my second 2DS, I don't want to go into detail about what happened to the first one, I think 'dropped by your brother from the second story window' would void the warranty.

I remember one day two years ago my mom woke me up in the summer because she saw on Facebook someone in the neighborhood had a red crystal 2ds at a garage sale for 15 dollars. It worked perfectly and had basically no damage. The kid barely used it and it kinda left me a little sad to see his play time. I gave my old 3ds that was pretty banged up to my friend for her birthday because she really loved animal crossing and wanted something to play it with.

Do you refurbish old cameras? I have found a Sony Camera in my house and it just has a dead battery thats all. Its one of those circle ones. I didn't get to check if its fine or not.

no he cant... $40 for the 2 ds's he used, then another 30 for the screen. Your already over the selling price of a 2ds by 20 bucks before shipping, and assuming selling on ebay any fees.

I liked this one needed to know if it safe to replace the screen. I thought it was a two piece screen.my 2ds had a bad flat fall. Now bottom screen a bit burnt out. Still works just the color tone off.

Hello. I finally got a used Crystal Blue 2DS for under $100. It was pretty badly scratched up on both the body and the screen as well as having an input issue with the touch screen. I was wondering if you knew where I could order a new shell and screen from?

Genuinely what was the point of the 2DS, to me it just takes away the only thing that made the DS unique which was the clamshell design.

It was for kids and was generally an economic option. It's for kids because there's no 3D that could hurt their eyes, and there's no hinge to snap

I recently came close to buying a 2DS off eBay where the shell was absolutely trashed but looked like the internals should be fine, but I stopped when I discovered that I couldn't find any replacement shells on AliExpress or eBay. I found the back half but the amount they were charging for it (without the front piece, which I couldn't even find) plus what the seller was asking put it over what I was finding for a working 2DS... Didn't find any faulty ones with good shells for less than what the broken shell one was going for, which I think I could have negotiated down to $50 but walked before I got that far

I found this video when looking up info because I'm interested in a 2DS for modding purposes and the multicolor buttons on crystal case look awesome, but unfortunately used version of it seem to be around $200! I guess I'll have to go for the regular crystal blue edition. RIP sick colorful buttons.
