Hey 3DS lovers!

I've had a new 2DS XL for a while now and Ive decided to do the PSP 1000 c stick mod but i cant find the insten PSP 1000 caps anywhere (In the UK to specify) ive found one on ebay but Im a bit skeptical on the height cause it would dent the screen which I saw from another thread which is this:


https://gbatemp.net/threads/new-3ds-xl-small-dent-after-psp-1000-c-stick-mod.503160/

and in that the Insten brand caps stay flush with the buttons and a bad quality one is too high!

so can anyone help me on this one and also where I can find them in the UK? It would really be appreciated! (also i can now post links)


Thank you!


UPDATE: 2ds xl is in repair so it'll be back in a bit!

I would recommend lenovo thinkpad ultra/super low profile caps. They are made out of rubber and have some sort of grip (like the psp stick caps) on it. Super good feel imho.
Can you send a picture or video of how it does in games ? I've heard of it on this gorbut I don't know how it'll do with movement and all that

These will work just fine as a C-stick cap replacement. If it doesn't fit on properly, you could always trim the hole down.
I think I've seen those before but the only thing I'm really skeptical about is the height cause if its too high it'll dent the screen and the advantage I know with the Insten ones is that they stay flush with the buttons and wont dent the screen and is the mot accurate replica of the original PSP 1000 caps.

And thanks for the recommendation!

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
