Why does my hinge behaves so weirdly?
I bought a 3ds-xl with a broken hinge. It is my first 3ds-xl so I have literally zero idea on how shall it behave, and as the original had the hinge missing I have nothing to compare or as a reference.
The problem I am getting is that the 3ds hold the screen very good when the console is closing, but not at all when is open, like in this figure:
My feeling is that I installed it wrong, but I am not sure why have I installed wrong (Do I need to have shells open or closed when installing?).
Other possibility is that the hinge is faulty, I did install a 3ds-xl, but I wonder if the new 3ds hinge would be compatible and feel better, or perhaps is not compatible, it is hard to say from pictures from sellers.
Also installing the hinge was extemely complicated, as it did not enter easily, and had to use water pump pliers (slip joint) to be able to press it. If you take this route, protect the shell with a piece of leather.
Any advice or information, or better a video of a unmodified 3ds behaving would be appreciated. Thank you.
Es esta una buena pregunta?
