I bought mine a couple of years back, and I also have the most common issue, in that the USB connector has, well, in this case, completely fallen off the circuit board. I was planning on streaming tonight, so I tried to fix it myself with superglue (Obviously I tried to avoid getting glue on the contacts), but I'm worried anything else I do might make it worse.

EDIT: To clarify, I did buy my board here, not from Katsukity.
Fixed. It'll ship out today.
I don't know how else or where else to post this question.
I have an optimize kit for Orignal 3DS, i had a attempt made by my very hands, but i was unsucessful, I had to remove the kit and get rid of the 3DS that the TP were bad to even try again.
Would you Loopy, do the mod if I supplied the kit, wire, and original 3DS? If so how much?

I am pretty sure loopy does not do capture card installation of optimize boards. There are other vendors that does that like delfinocustoms.

I know this thread was created years ago but this feels the most appropriate place to ask, if I currently have a faulty katsukity New 3ds XL capture card, and I didn’t want it repaired but replaced with the capture boards made here would that be okay? I brought my system to my local repair shop and they said the whole board is faulty (I don’t know how true that is given that these aren’t widely known by the majority of repair shops) and I figured it would be easier to replace the katsukity board with a loopy board. If need be I would even pay a little extra if the labor for removing and replacing the board would require it. I just don’t know about a lot of this stuff so I hope I’m not being too unreasonable.

This is surely possible, but I would also recommend to replace the housing part for USB out hole, the USB C cutout is located at a different spot...

I can replace the old board. It won't cost extra, but as TecD0c said, the USB holes don't quite line up.

In most cases I've seen, it's just a bad USB port.
