Tomee Charge Dock for Nintendo 3DS XL (Green)

I had a hard time finding a dock for my 3ds xl, even this item has lack-luster reviews, so I just wanted to set the record straight. For anyone looking for an old 3ds xl charging dock, this is exactly what you need. Not only is the green much more appealing in person, but this dock charges your 3ds by two prong contact to save your charging port. As someone who spends a lot of time playing old and new 3ds xls, this is a great solution to overnight charging without wear and tear on the delicate ports. Me and my wife each purchased one and both work great.PSA; many reviews state this product does not work or needs weight on it to activate, and it DOES take some time to learn how to seat it properly, but once you realize to set the 3ds xl front right corner first, it works easily everytime.Another PSA; THIS DOCK IS FOR OLD 3DS XL, NOT NEW 3DS XL. I hope you arent learning this from me but the old 3ds xl and new 3ds xl are different sizes and the NEW 3ds xl charging docks are MUCH easier to find and cheaper on ebay. But this is perfect for the old 3ds xl that does not have a right thumbstick nub.Highly recommend. Get another 3ds charger with this because this doesnt come with the wall plug, but those are cheap here on amazon.

The idea is good, but like other reviewers stated, it doesn't work under the weight of the 3DS XL (it needs more), so it doesn't charge. Not at all worth the money.

My charging port started getting loose and didn't want to charge without being is a specific position. This uses your existing charging cable. It has a couple prongs that connect on the back of the DS for charging instead of needing to be plugged in directly. MUCH better!

Love the color, love the price, wish it worked better, My only issue with it is that it doesn't always seat correctly...I sometimes set it down to charge and have to re-position it to get it charging, or that it slid out of place.I didn't have issues like this with the official one, but maybe as I use it more it will stop doing this.Be aware it doesn't come with a power supply, but since we have 2 3DS XLs we didn't need to buy another.

I'm sure this works for the standard 3ds models, but the port was not in the right spot for the New 3ds models. I thought it would be a good substitute, but I guess it was very specific.

I love this dock

It works.

Wouldn’t charge my 3dsxl no matter how I laid it in. Had to return it.
