Nintendo reasons for its decision not to include charger with 3DS XL consoles as they believe that a majority of homes are already compatible charger obtained with a previous console, and it is useless to duplicate.
This charger is also suitable as an alternative or complement to a lost or defective charger for these consoles:
- Nintendo 3DS XL
- Nintendo 3DS
- Nintendo DSi XL
- Nintendo DSi
Not suitable for Nintendo DS, DS Lite. I do not know what is the Nintendo 2DS.
Relatively poor manufacturing quality: very thin cable, lightweight body and probably quite fragile. However Advantage: the cable is long and will easily keep playing while charging
BIG disadvantage: the charger is NOT universal. Use only for Europe, incompatible with the voltages / frequencies North America for example. Consider purchasing an unofficial USB charging cable if you travel, it works very well.
