 Today I wanted to fix the buttons on my #Nintendo 3DS. I didn't know what the issue was, but I was sure I had to disassemble it right to the buttons. Bad news: it means I had to disassemble the bottom part, like, completely. Wiped the buttons. Assembled it back (had to fix a couple of little things along the way too). Can't state that the buttons improved in any way. Maybe they even got worse... 3 hours bad spent. 1/2 5 comments
Hacked my 3DS. Adding some files on the SD card and pressing some buttons is much easier, than prying the funky connectors and driving some screws. Installed a #uxn emulator. After changing ' to " in the source code, my Tic-Tac-Toe ROM compiled (who keeps changing the language?). It works, see the attached photo. Also looks like I've damaged the bottom screen haha. Haha... 3/2  @bouncepaw The 'rune was deprecated sometime last year. It was announced in the mailing list. @neauoire yeah, I know, that's how I figured it out so quickly. I guess I should update the program upstream as well... @bouncepaw The only other thing that changed is the addition of a raw rune for absolute zero-page byte, and absolute relative byte, which you probably wouldn't need to use in normal scenarios. Uxnemu has gotten faster tho, which is worth updating it for, uxnds has all the latest things changes tho :) |

I'll flash the custom firmware tomorrow nevertheless, even though the buttons are not in the best condition. This part will be easy! I know computers!
Looks like my dream of refurbishing my favorite game console without any new parts failed. At least I didn't have to buy the funky screwdriver, a friend let me borrow it.
