Hello! I've been interested in a Loopy 3DS Capture Card for a very long time now, as I want to capture both DS and 3DS games for videos and streams. Are there currently any known plans for boards in different models of 3DS (New 3DS, New 3DS XL)? If possible, I'd really like to get my New 3DS modified at some point in the future.

Loopy announced back in February that he would get back to work as Katsukity went bankrupt. We don't have any estimated dates or anything, all we know is that the newer boards may come later this, or next year.

Or the year after that and etc....

I'll wait as long as it takes. I need one at least for my New 3DS XL.

We are all waiting patiently for at least, the New3DS family capture boards. No one has an idea how this is going to work, because with my current situation, my current New3DSXL has a borked circle pad (with the only possible workaround being Input Redirection Client via Luma3DS), and whether or not I will try to get that repaired will depend solely on whether or not Loopy is doing New3DSXL boards. However, if he is doing New2DSXL boards, I wouldn't have an issue just buying one directly from Loopy himself with capture board intact.

Replacement is easy for the New 3ds. Other than the ribbon cable can be a pain in the butt to get in. I wouldn't punish yourself with Input Redirection if you don't have to

Well, I don't want to try to get it repaired knowing that Loopy is doing New2DSXL boards, for example.

Might as well still though, yea? Even if Loopy came out with the board, that console sounds like it's still perfectly good after a quick 5-10 minute fix and a $4 part. Even if you planned to retire the console, I'm sure someone would pay to take it off your hands for $ you could put towards the new, theoretical board. It's probably one of the easiest parts to replace in the console, assuming you're careful with the ribbon cable install. Definitely don't want to see a good console go to waste

Should I go ahead and just buy a New 2DS XL, then? Many signs on this board point to Loopy just modding New 2DS XL's. I have a feeling he might not have boards for the OG 3DS then, which is the one I have.

What are these "signs" you speak of? I've only ever seen Loopy comment one thing about needing to get busy, and that was two or three months back. Who knows if he was serious or what's going on behind the scenes. I don't think anybody but Loopy himself could tell you what to do, and I wouldn't expect a response. Just make a choice -- you could always sell it and go with a different console *if* Loopy comes back not supporting that board.
