i recently bought this 3ds and opened the back of it up just to find this 😭😭😭 all of the other screws are just fine, but this one is stripped BAAADLY

    is there any way i can remove this?

    it’s the screws under the shell, i’m trying to open this thing up so i can put custom buttons on it!!

    any advice would be greatly appreciated πŸ’•

    1. That honestly does not look like a total strip.. try a really good screwdriver and a little force..

      find some thin rubber like a rubber band and lay it over the screw hole. it should fill the gaps when you insert the screwdriver

      Try placing a rubber band over the head and inserting a screwdriver to break it open

      Usually I would saw a slit in a screw like that bit it’s not possible here… If rubber doesn’t work try super glue but at your own risk
