You mean the AC to USB adapter for ipad/tablet etc right?

Don't, it's too strong. It will shorten your 3ds battery lifespan in the long run or worst case burn it. Ipad needs 2A to charge while 3ds only needs 900mA.

my net line is either streamyx(at work) or at home (unifi). It's set to wpa2 if not mistaken.
My 3ds internet security is set to WEP and I didn't change anything on router. No problems connecting to either internet or eshop at either location

For TPU cases, I go for ori as a precaution. I want something that won't melt into the device or become sticky from long term use because you have no idea what the plastic quality is like from 3rd party manufacturers. Since you have ordered it, do update me about it.

For crystal cases, the plastic quality isn't an issue as it will crack if you drop it anyway but it might have bad molding. I had one where I had difficulty opening my 3ds as it squeezed the hinges of the 3ds and rubbed some of the metallic paint off the hinge corner... I ended up just using the bottom case and put an exterior screen protector instead. Anyway, I liked the way it looked without the case.

TPU cases are a soft rubbery type of plastic.

yeah, dx shipping is slow. I once had to wait 2 months for an item to arrive... == but you can't complain it was free shipping. BTW, did it come like that only without any sponge in between?

"Part of the case area for the stylus and SD card seems a little fragile and loose compared to the other parts of the cover." Yeah, it's not visible in the photo either. That would have been a nono for me, but I didn't want a plain case...

Even with this, I still sometimes feel the right side coming out a little.
"Fingerprints and smudges are a lot less obvious." It leaves fingerprints?

Just keep your 3DS away from the sun & heat if you're worried about melting. Definitely don't leave it in the car! @@

Hmm, the one I have doesn't leave any fingerprints at all. I actually never thought about fingerprints until I read your review. If you had the original 3ds, there's always fingerprints all over the body because of the glossy coating. If 20 days then it's quite a normal shipping time from overseas, a month would be too long. I suppose your review got bumped up because it was very detailed.

I expected at least something in between so it won't bend out of shape during shipping. I actually ordered a 3ds crystal case from them before and it arrived with a sponge in between but like yours it was in a plastic bag and the bubble wrapper envelope but the case was a bit bent but not broken, I'm not sure if it was the molding or it got bent from shipping. But yeah, it also had bits of extra plastic and you have to sand it down so it won't be so sharp.

Speaking of Goa, I don't play MH but I'm really liking the Goa case. So far, only both play asia and yes asia has the case listed on its own but the strange thing is I can't find any japanese retailer than sells it on it's own... not even e-capcom. I hope they are actually able to get it in

Screen size looks the same as a normal 3DS & the shell looks similar to 3DS XL.

Did you type the serial number exactly? With the "-"?

I always put the "-". It should be instantaneous... I claimed the free game for luigi + 3ds xl promo last time on same day I got the code.

If really cannot, I dunno if you should contact nintendo as recently someone got their account banned before when he called nintendo.
