All we have from Katsukity is some vague Tweet from Feb. 24, 2019:
I will be back.
But Loopy did say here on Feb. 2, 2019:

Huh. Weird. Guess he blew his money on fancy cars or something(??) How do you go bankrupt when you essentially have a monopoly?

Anyway. Yeah, I guess I'd better get busy now :P
So I for one am hoping for Loopy to make his glorious return some time this year, or maybe next year, with controller mod for all our new New 3DS XLs to really show who's boss.

I'm hoping because I really want to invest on a capture board for my New 3DS XL.

Should note that Loopy said last year or so that he got 3DS XL boards in and that he would be working on installs for them, but nothing came out of that. Who knows if loopy is truly interested in making more capture boards or not.

Just read up on that tweet. Looks like Katsukity has an incomplete website up (can't order from them), which means despite laws against what Katsukity used to do and one other Japanese capture card distributor does, the latter capture card distributor is still doing their thing while Katsukity seems to be making a swift return.

Honestly, Loopy can take all the time he needs, because at this point, even though I came back to the forums in a rush to get a New3DSXL capture board (albeit too late), I'd rather wait for Loopy despite the chances of a fast Katsukity comeback being there.

I'm in the same boat as you man. I already got a 32GB Micro SD on my New 3DS XL and all I can say is wait and hope. As much as I want to get one from Katsukity, I prefer Loopy.

Actually, it seems both that incomplete website, and their twitter account have vanished.

This is concerning.
