and as for my charging port, its not /: broken, its just missing a piece in it and to charge it i have to hold the cord at a very specific place with a specific amount of pressure, idk tho its not as bad as it seems... i think... i think if i go easyer on my 3ds it can last for another... year? 2 years? 3 years? idk the previous owner got this when the 3ds first came out... *looks on back of 3ds*
