About the Nintendo 3DS
The original Nintendo 3DS launched in North America in March 2011 with a glasses-free 3D top screen and plays both DS and 3DS games. The larger 3DS XL and the later “New” models are priced separately.
What affects the price
- Screen condition: scratches, dead pixels and dark lines.
- Battery compartment corrosion (AA models) or battery life (rechargeable models).
- Hinges on clamshell models, and the charger included.
- Aftermarket screens and shells change the value, so modded units are left out of this guide.
