Not really enough to go off of with these pictures. You would need to check to make sure the serial numbers match and even then it’s not 100% guaranteed
making sure all of the serial numbers match is only means of confirming that it’s at least all from the same system. Being able to match it with the box is the only means of guaranteeing it’s not a shell swap. Simply put, Nintendo hasn’t given any other means of proving validity of their systems
it doesnt come with the og box

like is it actually possible for this to be a fake with all the colored buttons n shit
If I may, why are you asking? Did you just buy this? Are you looking to resell it?
no im tryna buy it cus i wanna move on from my n2dsxl and this one looks really cool
I see. Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it. If it is a shell swap, it's done so well that none of us can spot any differences. And it would be so much work to replace all of that that it doesn't seem likely.

That is hard to tell without the item being in front of you. Serial number look okay since it has QW, that is what it begin with but you need to check with like 3dtrident homebrew to check serial number if no box.
They sell shell swaps on AliExpress. I've been eyeing the transparent DS Lites they sell on there, but I really don't need another one. Admittedly, the DS Lite is an easier swap than the 3DS line are.
Yeah, but the entire shell and all the buttons? And the stylus?
The New 3ds (not XL) has very easy click-in swappable shells. I haven't shellswapped a N3DSXL before but it looks like replacing the entire case would be a lot of work.
Even if it is... does that really matter?
That depends on how they're offering it. I can understand wanting to get a little extra for shell swapping, considering you have to buy the shell and it's not an easy process. But if they're charging a lot and claiming it's original, that's another story.

I went to auction at a mom/pops video game store few months ago that was closing, and bought 11 slims for $200, 1 was DOA but 10 work fine. so hella deal. Already rgh3'ed 8 of them. But most younger kids don't even want anymore, unless it plays stupid "fortnight", or newer shit. -
