Are you going to keep updating the guide for the installation? With description and more desribed images?

Well, that went pretty well. There's still some left, but I expect they'll be gone by the end of the day. Orders have slowed down to a trickle, which means if you were on the ball and wanted one, you were able to get it.

I'll try to expedite the next batch so you don't have to wait too long. (That's hard to promise though, I'll be doing nothing but installs all day for the next month or so :P)
I really would like to reach a steady state eventually. This mad rush of orders followed by droughts is .. not ideal.
I was out of town, and missed out by probably less than 24hr...

Heartbreaking that many people bought 3+ installs, and don't even have the systems in hand, ready to send you...

Is it possible to leave the soldered audio ribbon out of the installation? I’m comfortable installing the card, but my micro-soldering skills are still a bit iffy. My pc can accept a 3.5mm audio input. Could I just use that as my input until I get better at micro-soldering?

loopy, if we provide you the tracking number and order number, can we have a N3DSXL shipped directly to you from ebay for the capture card install? Is an SD card required as well? Thanks.

It confirms this on the old 3ds order page I believe.

On my tracking it seems to show the order arrived and was left at the front desk. Can you confirm its with ya Loopy? Transaction ID last 6 was 42272S. Should be 3 N3DSs (Majora, Samus, and Triforce) I can't wait to get them ready for Triforce Heroes :D Hopefully I can get them back before the EShop closure as well to get some last minute shopping done but no pressure. Thanks for all your hard work!

well to be fair to loopy, he did post the week to prepare, and then the day, and then the time... and as he says on the main post at the top of his forum, if you're subscribed to the topic, then you'd be getting emails for each comment and post made. its how i managed to get my order in for instance. But yeah, loopy DID give people some time to prepare.

I made an order for the install with type-a to -c cable and so far haven't sent the N3DSXL yet.

Guess that N2DSXL I mentioned long ago will stay on the shelf until needed as a spare or something :D

I'll be shipping a used/refurbed Red N3DSXL on early-February, which is ~2 weeks from this post.
I will remove the stylus from the N3DSXL before shipping. And I'll ensure proper packing of the package.

Loopy, look forward to a shipment from me hopefully by mid-February, and thank you so much!
