- Reviewed in Canada on October 5, 2024Verified PurchaseLike many gamers, I was very upset by the announcement that Nintendo would no longer be including chargers in with 3DS consoles. However, after trying a 3rd party, I experienced plenty of issues, and buying the official charger solved them. This is one product that (unfortunately) you don't want to skip out on if you are planning to play with your 3DS.

- Reviewed in Canada on March 30, 2025Verified Purchaseyou need one for the thing to work
- Reviewed in Canada on September 11, 2024Verified PurchaseI always liked getting the original manufacture instead of the crappy off brands, Nintendo did well still selling this for older generation models
- Reviewed in Canada on October 15, 2017Verified PurchaseI've bought this charger like a year ago for my friend who lost his charger, and it works stupendously. It's fantastic, it's great, and honestly, I've wanted to order one for myself too in case I've lost my charger. It's been more than 6 months, and it's still working unlike the other chargers he's had. It works well like expected, and he even said that he loved this new charger compared to his old one.
I'd definitely recommend this product and waste my money on this product always if I lose/break another charger or if another friend needed a new charger..
- Reviewed in Canada on June 28, 2016Verified PurchaseI used a tape measure (see photo), it's 190 cm, or 6 ft 2 in, now that's out of the way:
If you had one that came with your original 3DS, this is identical to it.
If you just bought a "new 3DS" that doesn't come with the charger, this review is for you.
Pros:
+ Did I mention that it's very long? It's 190 cm, or 6 ft, 2 in.
+ Sturdy build.
+ Foldable head.
+ Official Nintendo hardware, no fears of breaking your battery.
Cons:
- A little expensive.
- Not micro-USB. You're SOL if you left it at home.
Compatible with the original 3DS, 3DS XL, new 3DS, new 3DS XL, and 2DS.
Does not include the gaming system, charger only.

5.0 out of 5 stars Genuine product but with confidence
Verified PurchaseGenuine Nintendo charger. I had to open this one up and check because I received it without the box sure enough it’s OEM. You can actually tell by the type of torx security screws that Nintendo uses on them. I will post a picture of this one compared to a non genuine one that I purchased few days ago that failed after 1 day. First photo is the one I got from this listing. It outputs the correct voltage and it's not as flimsy as the knock off charger. I will get a spare one just to have in case one fails or gets lost. If you care about your device get this charger 100% would recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Original sealed product from Nintendo
Verified PurchaseAlthough the delivery was a bit late but I was very happy with the product because I received official nintendo product completely sealed. This charger works perfectly with my 3ds xl, just remember the plug of the charger is a US plug, thats not a problem for me but might be for you, just buy a universal socket and plug it on if thats the case.
