Hello all, I know this is an old post, but I had a question about the topic. I understand the method loopy demonstrated, however is there a way to just cut room for the capture card cover to fit inside the circle pad pro? I found a disassemble video that showed all the internal components were attached to the top side, where the 3DS will rest against the the circle pad pro. My question is if one was to clear out the entire middle section of the interior from all board "clips" and just use the bottom section ones, might have to use glue to hold components in place, and cut out the majority of the 3DS resting area, would there be enough room?
Also, if I could get more info on how the capture card rest inside the cover, that might help me understand more about the previous method. The thing that stops me from using that method is the fear of it breaking, as mentions from loopy. Would some electrical tape help to hold the capture card and usb port in place?

Would it be easier for some special orders to have the Circle Pad Pro used as the backside instead of the custom plastic?

Don't know what loopy thinks of that, but I'd be willing to put up a little more for a purchase to get a circle pad pro to work with the capture card installed.

Sorry to bump such an old thread, but has anyone else been able to do this? Or has anyone discovered any other third party grip attachments that will work with an original 3DS with loopy's capture card installed? I'm just looking to improve comfort while playing.

It's not the prettiest and it's not flush with the 3ds, but it works with just a few cuts in the cpp.
Image 1,
Image 2. Definitely makes it a lot comfier to hold imo.
Alternatively, what you can do is remove the back cover of the capture board and cut a square hole in the cpp.
Here's a video on that.

Nice, thanks for the response! I like what you did in the first pictures, but I might go with cutting the square hole into a CPP.
I just tried removing the back cover of my capture board, but it looks like my board is attached to the cover itself, rather than the 3DS. Is this a change that loopy has made with recent installs, or did I do something wrong?
