Trading some stuff with my little brother for a o3ds with 4.5E

x65943 · Oct 15, 2015

That's a really bad deal on your little brother's end. The flashcart is $10, the cardboard is $20 and the μsd is $5.

So you are offering him $35 for a 4.5 o3ds which he could easily sell on ebay for $70.

it's pretty scratched up just about everywhere, but it still works fine

You should do all his homework for a month too.

i would get in trouble because his handwriting is the ugliest ever, and he is the worst when it comes to english

If i was his little brother i would ask for a Ps4 or Xbox One

Take in account the console itself would be worth around €/$70 BUT all the games he gets to play for free are worth more then €/$1000!!!

So yes a PS4/Xbox One is a fair trade for the exploitable 3DS (XL)

Doesn't GBATemp have a Blog section for crap like that? Go scam your little brother elsewhere, please.

i could just buy a new o3ds if that was the case, but he also has a 3ds xl 4.5 that i set up with cfw for him with some legit cia's to play in sysnand, and i installed playcoinsetter for him too. at my place you probably wouldnt get more than 60$ as the 3ds ia at low interrest here. i might just ask if he wants to swap the motherboards for the flashcard

and also he can already play all the games he wants, and if there's a problem i'll help him. he likes a lot of the ds games. and there's a lot he haven't played yet. flashcards are pretty rare around here. especially those that work with 3ds! he's urging for a flashcard, and likes the idea of already having the top 100 downloaded on a site with a "emulator" "paradise"

The flashcart is $2-$3 actually

"i might just ask if he wants to swap the motherboards for the flashcard" guy he is 12 would he even know what that means
and don't bs about teaching min where to get nds roms google gives like 20 pages of sites when you ask or is he not allowed to use google

if you look at it from a pirates point of view the flashcard and the cfw may be equal (depending on who you talk to) but google cardboard and 25 bucks for a 3ds system . . . come on be a good brother just give him the flashcard . . . as a lil bro myself i can tell you that he will love you even if you scam him but, as a grown ass man i can tell you that when he grows up he will be to understand (then pass judgement for) all the crappy treatment you may or may not give him
and little brothers don't always grow up smaller then the older ones

if we really look at this as the lot of unethical pirates we all are (i mean look at where we are) then we know that according to "The Pirates Code of Ethics" you will still probably scam your brother regardless that's why so many people are upset that you wasted there time with this question

InsaneNutter · Oct 15, 2015

I've just been on Google and the first prices i've found for the following are:

R4I SDHC Dual Core $10
8gb micro sd card $5
Google Cardboard $4

It's certainly not a fair trade for your brother. I'd just give him cash for whatever the going rate for an exploitable 3DS is over there, going by the prices here in the UK it certainly has to be more than $20.

well, i've now made a deal with him. he owe me money for a ps4 controller(those are expensive) and i am going to give him the flashcard and cardboard. i decide that he didn't have to pay for the controller(he already paid 20$). and btw he does not know how to download roms. and i had to fix his computer which is fairly easy (he was running linux mint after completely crashing his windows 7, but somehow that also crashed)

Why are you still trying to justify yourself to us?

If you are committed to making this deal, you're going to do it either way. Just make sure you are exchanging items of equal monetary value.

And realize that helping him with roms and computer trouble is a service you should be providing for free because he's your little brother.

i do that for free anyway, the prices for a ps4 controller here is as of writing 80.42$ so i think it is a fair trade after all 60 dollars for the remaining of the controller a ds flashcard (10$) and a google cardboard (5$)

I agree $75 is a fair trade
