Just got my Pikachu New Nintendo 3DS XL back yesterday after ordering/shipping for a Loopy capture card install. I streamed with it today and honestly everything seems perfect — video/audio are great and the system itself works normally! However, I noticed the NFC/amiibo reader does not seem to detect anything at all while trying to scan amiibo in-game....
I’ve tried:
- Multiple amiibos (both newer and older ones)
Amiibos that definitely work on my Switch
Restarting the 3DS
Turning Wi-Fi off/on
Scanning while not capturing
Repositioning the amiibo several times
The system is also not homebrewed/modded. I’m honestly too nervous to mess with custom firmware or anything like that, just playing games normal and the traditional way, so I wanted to ask here first before assuming the capture card install may have affected the NFC reader somehow. Has anyone else experienced this after a capture card install or know of any troubleshooting steps I should try?
Thanks! Any help appreciated
