A question about the back plate

Post by RTNG_Tom » Sun May 12, 2013 3:30 pm

I saw in another topic, an image of the capture card itself, and it got me thinking. Can you remove the capture card? I ask because I have the Zelda 3DS and I want to keep the back cover/plate, and if I can remove/detach the capture card, then I can keep the back plate, swap it out when not using the capture card, and be happy. Otherwise, I'm really on the fence about getting on right now, since I would have to get a new console for it. Thanks in advance.

The capture card is built in, and can not be removed, however, Loopy does send you the back panel, should you want it,

The board can be removed, yes. You could detach it and put the original cover back on when you're not using it. I don't recommend using it this way though, the cable connector is rather delicate and not designed to be reconnected a lot. It (or the cable) will eventually wear out.

Okay, I figured it had to be a thin cable. I was just curious as to if you could do it. I may just end up ordering one once I get paid next then. Thanks for the info.
