Light🐧⁂<p>The rubber from the circle pad on my 3DS fell off, the robber has some tears on it so it will not stay one even if I put it back. 😭 I tried to use it with like that, but it was too slippery and my finger started to hurt after an hour of play session. 😢 Probably I could just leave to be like that, but I thought since there's replacement ones sold even if those are not original I will be better of with them then the original without its rubber. 😌 </p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/nintendo3ds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nintendo3ds</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/3ds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3ds</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/circlepad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>circlepad</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/joystick" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>joystick</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/replacement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>replacement</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/repair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repair</span></a></p>

Brennan Stehling<p>Custom arcade joystick project is coming together. The wood box parts are cut and are ready for glue. Then sanding and paint. What color and design would you choose? <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/joystick" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>joystick</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/arcade" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>arcade</span></a></p>
