That's usually the case. All the repairs I've done, I just replace the USB port.
Maybe I should revise my "no katsukity repairs" policy since you're pretty much SOL now.

Well that can explain a lot. I'll wait as long as it takes since the 3DS is pretty much on it's last legs. I still have my regular 3DS but I've moved to the New 3DS XL that is in need of a new Micro SD to store stuff.

Hey loopy,

I was pretty disheartened to hear that KatsuKity had shut down and there were no more 3DS capture card boards being made there. So after reading up on your return to making capture card boards, I'm excited! Will you still be installing capture cards for the original 3DS, or will you only be working on certain models of the 3DS? I have a ton of DS/3DS games I want to stream on Twitch, and it would be a shame for me to not showcase them. I hear your capture cards are much higher quality compared to KatsuKity's, so I've actually been wanting to get one of your boards instead of KatsuKity's for a while as well. Please let us know, and I am glad you are returning!

Well it looks like I decided to look into 3DS capture at an interesting point in time. Big changes happening in the industry, etc. I hope to be able to do 3DS recording in the future, but I'll definitely want to go with one of the 'New' models for that extra processing power and SNES Virtual Console. And with the apparent departure of a different major capture modder, it looks like I've come to the right place. I'm excited to see what develops from this, and and hopefully I can get one soon! :)

RIP new 3DS capture devices. Once merki runs out of his remaining stock, looks like that will be it. It is very doubtful that loopy will get back into the business since he hasn't at all for th past few years.

Oh, I was under the impression that Loopy had already decided to go back to making the 3DS boards in light of KatsuKity's bankruptcy. He did say he supposed it was time for him to get busy, after all.

He actually did say that. The big questions are, what's the game plan, who will it benefit, and how much would it cost.

Sure, he said that, but he also said a while back that he was working on o3DS XL capture cards as well. Nothing came out of that.

I'm pretty sure something did come out of that. He has the boards already made and in stock he just hasn't debugged the programming or something like that, if I remember correctly. He posted a picture with a box full of the boards.
