Anecdotal evidence: The only time I've seen a bloated battery is when I used my Macbook as an HTPC and left it in one place on the charger for like a year. I assume this was due to never discharging the thing ever and possibly heat but who knows. I believe Apple recommends a full charge cycle at least once a month though.

Batteries are haunted and if you don't say "stay safe battery ghost" every time you plug it in, it permanently reduces your max charge by 13 minutes.

I'd like to get a bigger battery for my 3DSXL. Are they larger than normal batteries? I'm concerned I wouldn't be able to carry it in my pants with a larger battery.

There are regular sized but they have been known to have angry spirits that explode and cause 3rd degree burns at the slightest provocation.

Alright that was weird enough. A week or so ago I described that I lost all my puzzle pieces in Mii Plaza after a system transfer from 3DS to N3DS. I just gave up on it. Yesterday my n3ds said an update was available. I let it happen. And all my Plaza puzzle progress came back. Pretty good update.

Fremry posted:First party stuff only ever goes on sale when there are big events (like the release of Smash). Those are also the ones that keep their value for trade in. I bought A Link Between Worlds cart for $40 and beat it in 48 hours. Gamestop trade in is $20 and I can easily sell it on SA Mart for $25, effectively making it a $15-20 game. If I bought it on the eShop it would be a $40 game, fullstop. If you have a ALBW cart for $25 I will totally take it off your hands for you. PM me if you're interested.

Nintendo storage options are pretty rest when they let you plug whatever you want into it. Miles beyond the vita obviously. Options are nice. It remains though, if you want a cart buy it reasonably near launch.

Waltzing Along posted:I turn my N3DS off when I am not using it. I am doing this wrong? Times to turn off your [N]3DS: After a system update, if your 3DS gets flaky. When changing the [micro] SD card. When cleaning it with anything other than your breath. If it's going into storage for A While. There might be more times it makes sense to, but someone else will come up with them and I probably went overboard already.

If you turn off your systems just to save battery life, just turn off the wifi.

Why is turning it off bad? I don't mind leaving it on all the time, but the only device I leave on 24/7 is my phone. Everything else I turn off when not using.
