Hi, I've been looking into buying a capture card but I only have the new 3ds (not xl). I was wondering if there was a plan to make a capture card for this or if I'd have to buy a new 3ds xl if I wanted a capture card. Thankyou

Loopy has looked into it, basically said it would be very difficult due to the size. N3DS is packed very tightly without much available space.
I don't think he said it's impossible, but I think he's not actively doing R&D on it.

You could make the Loopy capture card external, similar to 2DS capture card, by adding an extra housing at the bottom of the New 3DS.

Defeats the appeal of the New 3DS.
IIRC one of the issues was figuring out where to put the USB C port, and he thought replacing the charge port was probably the way to go.
