Subject: RE: My 3DS is having issues

I've already got a new board coming anyway, it was only about $14 from China, so I figured I'd give it a go. The ABXY board looks pretty ok, but I'm definitely no expert on small electronics and would rather just replace the board, since I generally just fuck shit up when I start trying to repair stuff with solder.

I did pull and clean my old board with some isopropyl alcohol, as well as contact cleaner, but still didn't help. I tried my cheap options/cleaning and rotating before I jumped on the new parts. It was my effort to try and break my habit of just replacing shit until it works.

If that doesn't work, then I'll get some new buttons. Maybe the bottom of my B-buttion is worn down? Unfortunately, they're bespoke, so I can't just swap the buttons around to see if that works.
