On the one with the polar bear: His name is Mite-Kuma, and he's that company's mascot. I was once at Tokyo Game Show, and got a shirt of him that says on it (in English), "Mite-Kuma likes games and salmon!" 🙂
the faceplates never took off bc people just found the ones they wanted immediately and just stuck with it, like I do.. black n3ds with the "wooden" mario plates, looks dope and is simply the best combination.
Re: the stand, I think it's important to know that the Japanese releases weren't limited to games only and that adults without interest in gaming could have one in Japan. That includes things like language learning software and dictionaries as well as other databases on top of cooking. For a teen using it for homework before smartphones got big a stand would make perfect sense, for example.
The dock was indeed something you could buy. I got one myself for about $5 from gamestop preowned. Its perfect for someone who uses their 3ds enough so that you can just drop it like you would a phone these days to charge. Kinda useful until you get a 2ds xl or 3ds xl/new 3ds lol
@@knightsurda I'm not sure what your asking for but if you search online for a specific model of 3DS or 2DS I'm sure you can find a charging dock for it.
I know here in America, the new 3ds XL did super well. It sold at a 2:1 factor here, and it was ALWAYS sold out. I wish they made the plates removable on the new 3ds XL because it was one of my favorite consoles and I want to get it new in box at some point.
The moment he said "These are brand new!" I thought of the problem of the US iDog where it had a plastic window and it would yellow in houses or stores
The stand you showed for the first one might have been more useful with the seg1 TV tuner that was released in Japan, just so you get a better angle for kids wanting a mini TV.
Well, technically speaking, they do make offbrand shells for switch and switch lites. I have a yellow switch lite that is now clear with black screen bezel (Looks SO much better) and an animal crossing v2 that is also clear. They also make aluminum shells for the lite, as well as a rear aluminum shell and joycon shells for the tablet switch. They have just about any color you can imagine, and if you do a bit of research, you quickly learn which ones are amazingly good quality, even come with some custom button replacements like snes colors, etc, as well as really nice hardware with screen protectors and bezel color replacements. Tell you what though, its quite stress inducing trying to peel the switch lite screen from an original shell..... Takes alot of heat and alot of patience. Ive been modding consoles since i was in high school, im almost 40 now, and, theres good money in it, as well as the cool factor of having one of a kind custom consoles. ^_^ Its really unfortunate we cant add pictures to comments, i'd love to show both of mine.
I'm not a boomer, but I absolutely love the America's test kitchen recipe game of sorts that was made for the DS. I got some of my most used recipes off of it... 😆
@@mattie3867The term has just migrated to mean anyone over 21, pretty much. Fair enough, since like all "generations" ("Gen X", "Millenials", etc.) the ideas mapped onto those born in the 20th c. baby boom didn't really correspond to anything except bestseller junk pseudo-science books.
I'm very surprised the 3ds cover plates didn't take off When I bought my 3ds (about 2 years ago) it came with custom cover plates already on and the original boring black ones They're white with Mario motives engraved all over and they look absolutely sick Who would WANT the boring one?! I can't believe they didn't take off like crazy. They rock.
I'm so very lucky to have a few rare New 3DS faceplates and have a few of the consoles myself. Such a good system! Might not be worth the upgrades by itself, but the slight power boost is pretty nice for homebew stuff on it.
Ahhh man it's so great seeing you active on this channel again. Your videos are always super fun and interesting. I really appreciate the energy you put out there.
Unlikely, the 3DS takes about 5-10 minutes to detect if the battery is full or not when plugged in, even if the battery is already full, half a second isn't normal, for any of the DS family in fact. It's more likely that it could be just how the New 3DS XL is designed with a bigger battery than the original 3DS, but I don't work for nintendo so I can't say for sure.
god i have so many of those faceplates. ones i imported are worth hundreds of dollars now. i’m keeping them though. aftermarket ones are coming along fairly nicely though!
When you are on Sendico, keep an eye out for J Springs watches as these were Seiko's designer models and the automatic ones very desirable, Pulsar and Alba Spoon's too very sought out, Alba AKA and Lorus Fusion are also Seiko sub brands, Sportura, Arctura, Actus, DX are Seiko models collectors aim for and Seiko 6139 chrono's are considered one of the most wanted Seiko's for any collector.
What a high-tech thing! It falls off, BUT still leaves unremovable residue?! (I'm sure it came off later, alcohol solves most of our problems in some way)
That Egg Grip is perfect for me. I've been struggling to be able to hold my DS and a boiled egg at the same time. Finally, someone thought about the customer!
That stand with the thicker stylus would be great for someone I know, they have fine motor issues which prevents them from holding the DS as intended, so they have to lay it flat on the table and play hunched over. Before knocking certain gadgets, always keep in mind that it might be a lifesaver for someone with a specific disability.
Around 7:50 : it was a thing in Europe as well. I remember them heavily promoting it as this modern add on to elevate one's 3DS experience. They were desperately trying to sell it, but it fell off VERY quickly, hence why you might have never heard of it before!
In the US the charging dock came bundled with the 3ds. I'm assuming he lives in America or another country where the dock was included, since he's not saying the dock itself is odd, just the fact that it was being sold separately.
15:15 The Xbox 360 back in the day also had cover plates for the front. I changed up mine a few times to Assassins creed and Devil may cry 4. There where loads of different designs, butI don't think the concept really took off. Don't know anyone who actually changed their faceplates back then. Also the Nokia 3310 lol, I had a few different designs for my phone back in middle school lol.
I loved the official 3DS dock, but then, i met the vertical 3DS docks, and my life have been changed forever. Now the footprint of my consoles is minimal and they charge without me having to plug loose cables.
1:31 A friend of mine brought a stand with the pen back from Japan back when Flipnote had a leak up in popularity. This stand got much more popular during that time. According to mu friend who got it from there he had been told that it actually had the intention to serve for hasty touch games or art themed games to make the experience feel much nicer. Sadly I lost mine during a move from city to city but it was very nice using it for Flipnote Studio. 😊
according to a store i consulted on, yes, the n3ds draws more power than the classic 3ds, so, it actually needs a different charger, maybe the reason why the batteries couldn't charge the n3ds but had no problem with the classic model, again, that was a store, they want you to sell you stuff, so, take it with a grain of salt
(9:49) 🥴 (3:53) I did some research, and found that there was another model that just had a USB-A port instead of a DSi/3DS connector. I think it was because Nintendo didn't provide USB charging cables for their handhelds, so Sanyo had to reach out to Nintendo to licence their connector. They could've just bought clone connectors like a lot of other brands, but I like that they got a licence to use the original connectors. I forgot that Sanyo used to have a whole Eneloop ecosystem around the time it first came out and before they were acquired, but I think the Mobile Booster products slowly went away when lots of other companies released their own external batteries. Edit: I didn't realise there was also a DS Lite version!
Always love these accessory vids lol. Also the stand would have actually been great for all those art apps. I used to draw a lot on homebrew apps and art academy.
I've been having fun looking through ds and other older gaming stuff on sendico. I recently bought my brother a cars (like the movie) ds stylus, and my sister a hello kitty x monster hunter ds case, plus a hk cartridge case and one of those stickers you put on top of the ds. (These will go with the ds lites I got them as Christmas gifts.) I have considered making a small youtube channel not talking, just showing the items (and opening if they belong to me). Not to encroach on your genre, just to share cool things with people :) Thanks for putting me on to sendico btw. It's helped me have purpose and make a little money (buying junk consoles, cleaning/fixing and then selling) while unemployed, and have really cool gifts for my family (mostly my sister who loves hello kitty). Of course I love getting the occasional thing for myself too. 😊
my 3ds didn't come with one of those cradles/charging docks when i bought it, which to me says it probably released somewhere between the original launch and the new3ds model. so they probably sold it separately in case you didnt get one to begin with, or if you lost or broke yours
the cover plates idea was really nice but most people bought the XL and nintendo figured out people will just rebuy the console if they release special editions
That black 3DS dock? I actually have that, though it's lost at my home, along with my 3DS and it's charger, in likely different locations. It came with the 3DS I bought used long long ago
I actually have a similar clear case for my New 3DS XL! I put it in storage for a few years after moving and it had the same yellowing and grime issue.
Love the video. I think the hair sample in the custom leather case is a cry for help from someone in danger, get ahold of the Mario Bros to start an investigation 😋
I'm just imagining someone seeing someone else on a train using the eggs while playing a ds and the first person thinking "those 5 minute DIYs have gotten REALLY weird"
I like the spinny pencil trick thing you do with your hands its fun to watch and to me kinda mesmerizing (I rewound the video like 6 or more times just watching you spinning the oversized stylus around XP.... )
Why is a DS stand being treated as a "weird, kooky, novel idea" like the damn thing isn't filled with stylus only or stylus reliant games that might feel awkward to play one handed or completely flat. Like dog, Kid Icarus uprising was a fucking 3DS launch title.

Came here to say this. It also happens to a lot of transparent phone cases over time.

The stand looks like something that would work for people that used flipnote studio a lot, just like drawing screen tablets have stands for them too
True!! I would probs end up stacking ontop a box or something so there's less strain on the wrist but ye
Well I wasn't expecting at all the egg grip to be like that haha, I hope your glasses aren't forever stuck with egg residue
A little bit of Izo-alcohol and they'll be brand new, but the face with the eggs on his glasses
got me :D
@@rexthewild He did have egg on his face indeed.
The DS with that stuff looked like a DS with tits...
the faceplates never took off bc people just found the ones they wanted immediately and just stuck with it, like I do.. black n3ds with the "wooden" mario plates, looks dope and is simply the best combination.
Very sad that there weren't any n3ds xl plates available though
The red controller add-on for a DS is certainly something I could look forward to. Design and transparent aesthetic looks so cool too!
Same I have rather large hands and most portable systems are difficult to hold at length
same, I want one too
it looks stupid. imo. however does seem like a nice add on
The only weird thing is that it lacks the extra circle pad, so I don't know why they made it for Monster Hunter.
That looks like the only legitimately good item. Would turn it into a similar form factor that I keep hoping someone will use.

Yeah abs plastic without stabilizing chemicals can yellow even with no UV light at all
I never had an IDog, but i know there’s a constant problem with the yellowing with UV light, I guess UV light dosent only damage the qorld
