    On one hand I agree but on the other hand this EU version will probably have less battery capacity or even processing power as a trade-off. It has to fit in the same case and with the same components after all.

        I‘m not sure if replaceable means that. In fact I am very doubtful replaceable means you can replace it like older laptop batteries or Gameboy batteries. It‘s more like replacing a 3DS battery I imagine. So no, very much not be at 100 percent just like in the old days unless you regularly replaces your 3DS batteries. Not sure why you would.

        Real gamers skip the batteries and have their GBA on AC… Hoping mom doesn’t step on the cord and yank it out again.

      All they have to do is not permanently glue the battery on. It otherwise would sit in a perfectly flush compartment that doesn’t even need to be changed or would require a different battery.

      The only difficult part of replacing the battery in the current model is the fucking adhesive which makes this whole thing that much worse. If anything, it would be slightly cheaper to produce since they wouldn’t need to buy glue.

        Unfortunately you are mistaken. They can‘t just place it in there loosely. It needs to be mounted in some way. Right now, repair guides glue the replacement battery back into place as well so it‘s actually not something you should skip. The new mounting system can very well result in a smaller battery size.

          It sits perfectly flush in its compartment and then has a plate pressing against the back when closed back up. It really doesn’t need the adhesive. If you ever had to send it to Nintendo, tho, it not having the glue would be a clear indicator you opened it up and voided the warranty.
