Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Lopsided posture/position is actually quite comfortable and i can play for long stretches of time without feeling any undue strain. Perfect for the nephews (teenagers) they love them. Makes longer play sessions pretty comfortable.

The grip allows for all the ports to be accessed, and even has a 2-cartridge storage feature. I'm definitely a casual gamer, but with the new pokemon game coming out, i knew i'd be grinding a bit. This thing should have been included in all the new ni...  Read More

I welcome any possible future improvements to the design or iterations that further enhance the experience the product provides. This grip is awesome! Overall these grips are incredible. This is a really fantastic grip and i cannot recommend it enough...  Read More

The texture of it is a nice matte rubber. The material is perfect as well. It's firm non slip with a little softness. The texture is smooth and so comfortable.

The grip holds my n3dsxl very snugly. It isn't uncomfortably difficult to remove it.



Cons

The small, thin pieces that hold the 3ds in place are incredibly flimsy and broke in under two months of continual use. Product has scratches on it and a busted corner that was super glued back on. The shoulder * feel really awkward to reach.

Packaging/appearance


This allows me to slide my whole left hand down farther on the left side of the grip and position my thumb more comfortably to use the dpad


Tldr use 70 isopropyl alcohol and microfiber towels to remove the sticker rubber coating


I have a clear shell case and can only use the top piece as the grips fit snug to the bottom portion of the n3dsxl

Competitiveness


With that being said it is definitely a 5star product and worthy of a purchase for anyone who has faced my predicament


This is a gamechanger for 3ds gaming its the best one for the best systemeasy to install and take off for when you need portabi...  Read More


And if you’re wondering if any of it’s competitors might be a better choice
