Oh sweet

I wonder what color their new DSXL is, the one I got a few months back is maroon

Mine is blue, and I took a knife and cut out the rubber clit nub. If you do that, you can pop a PSP replacement joystick right on with zero effort, it just snaps right on! It works SO MUCH better than the rubber clit.

Also install CFW if you haven’t! I love my N3DSXL.

Interesting... I'd like to know more. Is there a good resource you'd recommend?

Oh absolutely!

I followed https://3ds.hacks.guide/ and it took me the better part of a day. Maybe six hours. The the WEEK AFTER I HACKED IT (this was maybe seven years ago?) they released a MUCH EASIER HACK. it took me under an hour to hack my partner’s 3DS.

I did my PSP joystick mod when Monster Hunter Generations came out. Oh god that was like eight years ago now… you can see it and find a video someone made recently here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/modding-new-3ds-xl-with-psp-1000-analog-stick-also-works-on-other-new-systems.606476/

I was scared to do it because what if it went badly? But nah, snipping out the clit nub was super easy and I had a spare PSP… the PSP joystick snapped RIGHT on and suddenly I had infinitely more control over my camera in games! I was sooooo happy.

Edit: I chose to use flush cutters to chop my C-stick out, I didn’t want to take my 3DS apart. I modded my PSP by taking it apart and hot gluing cut-out NES sleeve bits to the buttons for DJ Max Portable and didn’t want to go through all that again.

Sweet, thanks! I'll give it a shot this weekend! :D

Wonderful, good luck! It’s much easier and safer than it used to be. I just did it so I could back up my Monster Hunter saves, but now that the eShop is dead I’ll for sure pirate stuff if I play it more any time soon.

I also got an R4DS for regular DS games… it’s a cheap DS cart you can stick a microSD card in and load up DS roms! I think there’s a way to do it with just software on the N3DS as well, but I don’t remember. I had the R4DS from like 16 years ago (oh no I’m old) and I was happy it works on my N3DSXL as well! Lots of Osu! Tatakae! OUENDAAAAAAN! (Which I guess is a big thing with people now?!)
