Hello guys, how is it going? xD
I have a question in regards of USB charging cable for the New 3DS. At the moment I have a 3DS XL with a Nintendo AC charger. I'm planning to buy the New 3DS and I will need another charger (my wife is using the 3DS and she will keep using the only charger we have). Instead of buying another AC adapter I was considering the idea of purchasing a USB charging cable (for several reasons) but I'm looking for a reasonably long cable. The problem is that I can only find "short" cables! The longest one I could find is this one: http://www.amazon.com/CPTCAM-Premium...peed+usb+cable but I would like something possibly longer (about 2 meters or more). Any suggestions? (I live in the US so any online shop that sells in US would be good!) Thank you ![]() |

I will probably do that and get an extension, if needed. Also, I know that USB charging is slow of actually plugged into a USB slot but, if I use a power plug adapter it should charge much faster, right? In this regards, do I need any special extension cable or not? (I don't want the extension to slow down the charging while plugged into the wall) |

The charging time should remain the same with a power plug adapter. As for the cable, I'm not sure if you'd need a special one, I believe a standard one should work. Search around a bit as I might not be correct on this.
The extension cable will slow down charging. How much depends on the quality of the cable and its length. If you use a small extension cable the charging rate won't drop by too much. This is exactly the reason you can't find long cables intended for charging devices. I hope I helped. I can't really help you any further so you might want to google a bit and look at a more technical forum. The best solution is still to buy an official charger, less to worry about, guaranteed to work ![]() |
