    Also, something to note. The 3DS can become a sort of pseudo-consolizer, if you have it softmodded. The Luma3DS cfw menu comes with a feature called InputRedirection. It syncs to a PC app of the same name, and takes a controller synced to your PC via bluetooth or USB, and redirects those inputs to the 3DS itself. So if the game doesn't require the touch screen? You can play 3DS games with a controller on your PC.

      You can map touchscreen coordinates to buttons on your external controller as well. So it still works very well for games that only require tapping a few buttons on the touchscreen (like Metroid: Samus Returns, for instance).

      It's been awhile since I've used it so I don't know what type of condition the application is in but there is utility called Snicker stream that works along with input redirection it allows you to use any controller you want to play your 3DS while also streaming the screen onto your computer no capture card or hard mods required

    This mod was awesome I did mine recently and the audio video is perfect. Now we need a way to upscale 2x resolution. I call mine the Pink Beauty because I paid $300 CAD for the 3DS and $120 USD for the kit. The 1 hour this took to do while following the picture guide really puts it in perspective as to why people try to sell theirs for $7-800.

    I still have the 1st generation Loopy capture mod for the original 3DS where it was strictly just video output and needed the charger as well. I am glad Loopy continued to improve and support the newer consoles as well! TBH Loopy was the reason why local Pokémon tournaments were able to stream without the need for a Nitro developer unit.

  • @anthreyony
    @anthreyony 12 วันที่ผ่านมา +20

    Loopy's stuff is great, and this is a great video!
    I think you missed a few other features in the software, though. If you right click on the preview window in the 3DS Capture software, you'll see a couple of extra settings, including changing the scaling filter to either Bilinear (slightly soft/blurry) or Point (sharp pixels). There's also an option to crop the capture for when you're playing Nintendo DS games (stretched or 1:1 for when you hold Start or Select when starting DS games to launch them at their native resolution).
    One additional feature that isn't obvious: when dragging any of the preview windows to resize them, they'll automatically snap to integer scaled resolutions. That, combined with the "Point" scaling option results in some super sharp and evenly scaled pixels, if that's what you're into.

    First off, this was such a great video to watch, seeing your very meticulous work on modifying that N3DS XL. Man, there were various moments where I'm thinking "I could've screwed up badly there" but your experience clearly shines through. Kudos, Tito!
    Secondly, I'm very glad to see that there's finally a new standard for hard-mod 3DS video capture.
    I was able to procure (what was then) one of the last modified N2DS XL consoles done by Merki in 2019 as Keity/Katsukitty was shut down due to that Japanese modification law, and they only had a few boards left to distribute before there were no more, with no successor in sight. It was a pain to scroll through eBay seeing people sell theirs for hundred (and even thousands) of dollars, but luckily, I paid a friend for his N2DS XL unit and shipped it off to be modified, which in the end cost me about $600-$650.
    Checking their site now, Merki appears to be still in business to this day modifying 3DS systems with Keity (now with USB-C) and Loopy boards. Again, 2019 had a bit of a mad rush for 3DS capture units - seeing where we're at now kinda makes me wish I waited, but it was so uncertain back then.
    The Merki N2DS XL I have uses micro-USB and uses the Keity software viewer, and it does work really well! Even has a compatible VR viewer, but unfortunately, the visuals are still in 2D and is not like what's produced in the CitraVR fork that's on Quest platforms. The quality is pretty decent, though I do find myself using the audio from the unit itself since there's a slight bit of latency and I play a lot of rhythm games on 3DS.
    I might consider getting a N3DS XL and a Loopy board in the future because the one thing I do miss from using the 3DS is the actual 3D feature, especially the more stable version introduced with the new line, and in the case of the Loopy board, USB-C is a huge plus. I usually find myself having to rely on the 3DS charger for long sessions, so 2 wires are usually running from their respective outlets/ports into my N2DS XL at all times.
    Again, phenomenal video, here's hoping it can reach the masses looking for a decent 3DS capture solution now!

Also, did I possibly see a small solder residue blob in the middle of the ribbon solder points at 10:50? If that breaks loose it could possibly cause a short somewhere

    I remember around 2016/17 i wanted to stream/capture 3DS footage but having to send your 3DS off to someone that you had no clue who they were or if could trust! Then paying 4/5 times the price of this kit alone (i kid you not!!) Plus there was a big worry of your 3DS dying also so that massive investment could go down the toilet!
    Oh how times have changed.
    Even if your 3DS did die, seems like could easily remove mod and put in another system.
    I know you said mod is difficult because of trimming but really it seem not that bad considering everything else i told you of hoops you had to jump through back in the day.
    Awesome video Tito as always, i hope this guide takes the bottom out of the extortionate prices people were charging for 3DS capture mods.
    GG to the mod developer also.
    I don't want or need to stream/capture 3DS anymore, thank you Nintendo for the HDMI out for Switch, makes life so much easier for capturing game footage. But feel like purchasing this and installing myself just because i can now as it seemed like a massive investment to all but people with big budgets/pockets back 7/8 years ago.
    If this mod could evolve into some kind of HDMI video out rather than USB capture card out that would be amazing for everyone else also. As means we could all play 3DS on our big screen TV's (halfway house to a consolizer?..) just a thought fantastic mod devs 🤝👊

    I really wanted to have something like this, but started looking into it around the time that the two people who made mods like this stopped doing it. I think there was one in Japan, one in Europe. I settled with the software based ones which work well enough for my needs, it's just not really ideal.
    You made this mod look so good I'm tempted!
    I have also been waiting for a consolizer mod of some sort. I find the 3ds uncomfortable to play for extended sessions so some of my favorite games get shelved pretty often because I can't really get comfortable with it.

  • @Kraaketaer
    @Kraaketaer 12 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

    That's a pretty cool mod! I kinda wish you'd highlighted the need to be careful when routing out the space in the shell though, as even with a dremel, router bits are scary AF, especially when working like that (bringing the work to the tool, not the tool to the work). While your setup seems about as safe as you'll get it, with a solid surface to hold the shell down against, and luckily the shell is pretty flat and stable, there's still a risk of the bit grabbing hold of the shell and yanking it pretty hard. Best case scenario for that is a mangled shell - worst case scenario your hand gets yanked into the router bit alongside it. While chances of losing a finger to a bit that small aren't *huge*, they absolutely exist, and even if you don't do that, that bit will still mess you up *bad*. And, of course, working with an exposed, high speed router bit like that makes for a high risk of accidental touches if you're not constantly watching out for where and how you move your hands. It's shockingly easy to, say, need to scratch yourself and without thinking touch the moving bit with your hand or finger. Be very, very careful around tools like this. And, whatever you do, don't use gloves around power tools like this, as they can get caught and _will_ pull your hand into the bit if that happens.

      Like for mentioning the downside of using gloves. Wearing gloves around a rotating blade is an excellent way to lose some fingers or more!

    Hey! This was an amazing watch! I want to try and do this myself, but I have almost no experience in handling electronics this way, the only thing I can compare this to is when I built my computer, and I had help with it. Not to mention I have never soldered before, though there seems to be very little soldering in this. How difficult would you say this is for someone like me who has never done something of this caliber?

    There was a Japan based company years a go that sells this capture kits or can install it directly at their facilities, however they were sued by Nintendo and sadly had to close the business, I remember that their capture card was slightly bigger but also well developed, the usb c port was located just on the same part as the fabric charging port or can be installed on the infrared one, now those one consoles are super expensive, and this is a great alternative, ironically the most difficult part it’s not soldering but trimming and lower the PCB area.

    There is a homebrew app to route a controller over bluetooth to a PC, then over your wifi network to the 3ds, even has a little touchpad overlay on the monitor if needed for the game. But if the game doesn't need a touchpad, it's a great option for controllwers.

    I ordered my 3ds with a capture kit in it from Katsukity back in 2017 I think. It uses a micro usb cable and has always worked really well for me. I'm not familiar with the hardware really as it isn't well documented, but the console was about $650 with the capture card installed. I had a lot of fun streaming off of it so I think it was well worth it.
    Glad there is something new and less expensive that's available however!

    I use a 3DS with a capture kit and controller mod from Katsukity. (for a very horrible amount of money...)
    The good thing about this is that DS games can also be controlled with the controller.
    (CFW remote control cannot control DS games.)
    And I like the fact that when I launch a DS or VC game in dot-by-dot mode (Launch while holding down the SELECT or START button), the screen is small, but I can easily zoom in with the software.
    Loopy's software is fully functional considering its low cost, but a zoom function would be more perfect.
    I'm hoping for an low cost controller mod next.

    You can hook up external controllers with homebrew, homebrew is easy to install in any 3DS system using just software.
    However the delay would still stop you from having a TV console experience anyway.

    It does seem like a solution to having to do all the rear shell trimming could be for someone or some company like FunnyPlaying to produce mod ready rear shells. It doesn’t seem like it would be too difficult for them to produce. It would of course just be if there is a market for it.

    I hope someone eventually sells custom molded shells for this. Even if the plastic quality is inferior to OEM, I think it would be worth it to make the installation process drastically simpler and reversible. The bottom plate would cover most of it anyway.

  • @8bitnation419

    Really nice mod, does it have software for the Raspberry Pi? Also would love to see more of a consumer version for this. For people that just want to play experience the 3DS directly on a tv with Bluetooth to allow for a Switch Pro or an 8BitDo controller. That would be a game changer, a consolized 3DS. Being able to play DS, DSi, 3DS and GBA games from GBA Runner natively directly on the big screen or through a scaler.
