Case guy here again. i solved a quality issue on the cases. this fix will be standard going forward.

these pockmarked cases will likely have their own listing with a discount.

Case guy here again. Next case batch will be on on october 9th! + updates!

Hello! i am here to announce the next release of cases as Feedback has started to roll in as the shipping testers get their cases.

store link

Now, some updates. New price is $40. This is where the price is staying here on out.

Stock total! i am going to try and get 20 cases out this time around but there will be 15 at minimum!

Why 20? There will be 2 colors of cases, a blue bumper AND a white bumper! and my goal is 10 each.

Now. this does lead me into some changes have been made that i have to be transparent over.

Print orientation has changed. This case is now being printed upside down instead of right side up, and it has some pros and cons

This has shortened print time dramatically from 16 hours per case to 9 hours per case, practically half the print time, which has enabled me to do multiple color selections.

The downside is that the outside finish simply isn't as good, and I am actively trying to find ways to improve it, but I don't think I will be able to match it.

Demand is far higher than I expected for this case, and what comes out to practically a case a day isn't enough.

Now. some actual improvements.

A weak section of this case was the center bumpers on the old design. This section has been improved; the frame itself has been made thicker and wider, which should strengthen this area. All but 2 cases in my inventory still have this design. And will likely move to B stock.

Which finally, this brings me to "the cheaper option!"

There are now A and B stock cases. The printing process isn't perfect, and sometimes cases print badly, or I am a clutz and break them during cleanup.

Regardless, they're fine after being repaired properly (IE, anything that breaks gets physically welded back together)

And so, instead of creating more plastic waste and binning these cases, I would rather sell them to someone who isn't quite as keen on aesthetics.

These will be priced at $28. These don't make me any money, but it's better than wasting them.

and of course, leave feedback below.

End of an Era. I am finally selling my old Workstation. The last crossfire configuration. Dual Vega 56. For a fun fact, my tablet, Zflow 13 is faster in both CPU, and GPU than this rig...at 85w..

They kinda just both ended up being the same color...Honestly hoping we get more colorful joycons in the future..

MK7 feels...very off in comparison to the other games.

Title.

i just picked up a 3DS, and with it. MK7. i am just now getting around to playing it.. and it doesnt feel right, at all.

even sanity checking and going back and playing MK8 on switch and even MKDS. the game just feels..wrong???

it almost feels like its too slow and loose.

MKDS still has that nice, snappy feeling MK8 does, despite lacking a lot of the modern theactrics.

just some edge or something feels missing from 7.

Whenever i see someone complain that 720p is too low resolution for a handheld, all i can think about is what we had to deal with for 9 years with the NDS. With the 3DS only being a marginal bump (800x240 top and 320x240)

Cheap Switch lite from goodwill with smashed screen had a 128gb sd card with it.

and yes, i will be fixing it.

u/Navi_Professor — 1 month ago

Working lite i got for $60 with a sad joystick. going to be putting it in a new shell with a fresh battery and hall sensors... but i can tell this unit was defintely very loved by who ever owned it.

Did a whoopsie...destroyed front camera on a 2DS.

title says it all.

bought a super cheap 2ds to repair, had water damage.

was going over it to fix crusty joints and messed the front canera up...pretty badly with my iron.

i know the boards good as i got it to boot up, once.

i need to buy a donor board but how the hell do i get this camera off a board without utterly destroying it?

i managed to get it off, but these pads are in a super tight spot and i my hot air barely gets hot enough to get them off

Am i the only one who REALLY wishes you could mail to villagers who have moved away?

Title says it all.

one thing thats always irked me a little is that when villagers move. especally in old games, they're just gone gone.

and in the old school games like WW (what i grew up on)

if you never played with anyone else, very good chance you will never see them again.

but with the mail system, why couldnt we ever mail to villagers out of town?

Mom can. i cant remember if NH lets you mail to friends over wifi

but it always would've been nice to be pen pals with villagers you liked...and made more sense then maling someone that lives litterally next to you.

also, why tf cant we mail mom back????

i am paying for it in sleep...but the $30 3DS lives on and is assembled.

hybrid reshell. First 3DS, had only done a single DSI prior.

new bottom screen and digitizer, (sadly i belive i killed my replacement top screen on accident, the original still worked), new battery, Circle pad and USB C modded

was bought of FB marketplace for $30, for parts. Very clearly had taken a dfink of Cola or something. Didnt boot. Would only turn on with a pop then shut off.

Charge port was completely ripped off the board as well.

i kept the top midframe and bottom frame since the shell i got, is homestly crap and i'm not impressed with it.
