OG 2DS Repair?

Was looking to send in a friend's N3DSXL soon for a capture card, and was curious if you would by any chance do 2DS repairs at all The only thing wrong with it is that it won't charge, most likely to do with the charging chip or fuse (probably blown), but I don't have the soldering know-how or equip...

Re: Has anyone experimented making a game boy macro with a capture card?

Gameboy macro works. I've been using my OGDS turned into a Macro for both DS and GBA capture for about a year now iirc without issue As long as the Macro is working when you send it in, with the top screen properly bypassed by the resistor, the top screen can be captured just fine And yeah, you can ...

Re: Longtivity of the boards?

I've personally never had any issues with the N3DSXL capture boards, and I've gotten 4 of them installed The beta run board in one of mine still works perfectly and doesnt have any issues (other than the USB-C charging not hooked up, but that was the entire beta run) The later board that I got insta...

Re: Questions on the capture cards

Yes, the OGDS capture card can capture GBA just fine. It's been a bit since I've used my DS capture but I believe there's even a GBA setting in the software so you only have one screen showing. For 3DS, there used to be an OG3DS board, but Loopy does not make those anymore. The new boards are exclus...

Re: Loopy Emails

He probably gets so many emails from people asking the same exact thing. It may completely destroy his work flow and ability to get anything done if he has to stop, check all of the systems he's been sent in, reply to your email and everyone else's, and then try to continue back into the work of get...

Spawn Wave Media YouTube Video

Don't know if anybody saw this, but Spawn Wave on YT did a video about the original DS capture card. I've been watching his videos for awhile for a lot of gaming news and retro system modifications, but he finally got his hands on the OGDS capture cards, and gave a pretty decent walk through ‐ or at...

Re: Is my 3DS compatible with the 3DS Capture board?

Seeing how the capture board is only compatible with New Nintendo 3DS XL, no - it would not fit in your New 3DS non-XL

Re: DS Audio - popping noise through headphone jack when off?

Get a ground loop isolator for your 3.5mm. That's the easiest thing to do, since it basically eliminates electrical whine within the audio. The reason the problem comes up is because the power and audio are coming from one device, but 2 cords, leaving an electrical loop that the DS sits in the middl...

Re: Question about 3ds capture.exe

I can probably try this on my server PC later. I haven't tried it on that PC, but it's running an Intel Arc A380 so I might at least be able to give you one extra data point
