3DS XL Capture Card & TV (HDMI)

No, that won't work.

Can you explain why not?

Because analog video is not carried over USB. A device would have to be specifically designed for such a cable. You would have a hard time finding _anything_ that works with that cable, it's completely nonstandard.

Besides, even if it should work, it's a Mini-USB Cable, which won't fit into the Micro-USB Port.

By the way, who don't you just plug your 3DS into a Laptop, and hook your Laptop to a TV, using HDMI?
That also works.

not to mention that analog would wreck the quality.

i want a 3DSXL version since the regular 3DS is a bit uncomfortable to play for extended sessions. my current unit with the capture device still works well and i haven't had any problems so this is just for convenience but i was never comfortable with the fact i got an used unit back then due to being short in money.

one thing i hope is that nintendo releases more colors during the time it takes for Loopy to finish the 3DSXL version of the capture device. i want a nice color like silver or all black but nintendo of america is so bad.

I'm looking forward to a 3DS LL version of the capture device. I use the japanese 3DS board since August 2012 and it's fantastisc. I really like the white 3DS LL but I don`t buy it yet because I want to send it directly to Loopy, cause sending it from Germany is quite expensive.

Will this record at 60fps?

Why would you not want to make HDMI Capture Boards? Wouldn't you get even higher quality video with those?

[loopy]

It's already a perfect 1:1 copy, how does HDMI make it better quality?
There just isn't as much demand for HDMI. Most people are using it for Let's Plays. 3DS->PC is simpler and cheaper than 3DS->HDMI capture->PC. Not everybody has a HDMI capture device, and there were enough complaints about the price already.

Does the software record at 60fps?
