 The 3DS works again!! It's been 8 years since it last booted!! I unfortunately don't have its SD card anymore, so the data is gone, but the system works! Truly a miracle.
 
-Only thing left to do now is to fix the [USB-C port on my New 3DS](/projects/electronics/3ds-usb-c/)... it stopped accepting C-to-C connections, although A-to-C still works. Probably just need to re-seat or replace the 5.1kΩ resistor.
