There has been a good amount of news in the past few weeks for the 3DS capture device.

The mod will be available at mid June the earliest, but this is an optimistic guess from the creator himself. I would roughly guess late July-August to be available at the latest.

It will be out in 2 different models.

USB only


USB & 2 HDMI slots



There hasn't been a price for either of these mods yet. I paid $50 for the DS Phat USB mod. Good chances these will be much dearer thanks to being a newer portable and much more wider range on playable software (DS, DSiWare, 3DS, 3DSware and VC).

Livestreaming with the DS has been a piece of cake, using Screen Region tool on Xsplit. This one will be no exception. Now if and I do mean if the HDMI can be downscaled through a converter to composite, in theory you can record (3)DS related footage onto the DVD recorder. I find this much more reliable if you are very concerned about frame drops. Then I can use the output from my TV to livestream with EZCap so I can livestream and record serious runs at the same time.

Yamihoshi has a 'work in progress' version where it's only good at taking screenshots. The video transfer is nowhere near as optimised that it will only record 3 frames per second when recording it.

For anyone who is wondering, it looks like the 3ds capture devise listed before in this thread will be coming soon. According to this source (http://www.yhctr.net/) it is expected to be finished early August. Also supposedly it will cost somewhere around 200 USD, although this price is not official. This thing is looking pretty awesome Cheesy

Also the first batch (that release on early August) will only have a USB Capture support. NO HDMI OUT.

It is unfortunate that the first batch lacks HDMI but on the SDA topic there might be a trade in method (USB only for USB+2x HDMI) once it's available. When I get my hands on one I will make an encoding guide when recording a raw .AVI (not Xsplit). Price point isn't going to be easy, DS phat mod was only $50 + postage. This one is for the newer 3DS and... region lock means another 3DS and another mod if OoT 3D JP becomes just as important as OoT console JP.

Every text box in OoT3D can be skipped, and the text is rather fast anyway. Unless there's a J only trick or use, region lock shouldn't be such a problem for OoT3D.

Curious that it isn't HDMI (yet)

I must say that I am rather disappointed with the price if it will in fact cost 200 USD. I was hoping for 100 USD at the most. I guess that was just wishful thinking though. Also I think Tom is right about text speed. It really shouldn't be a problem, or at least let's hope it's not.

A let's player acquired a 3DS capture card: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Shh1tb8kiaw&feature=plcp
It is unknown if the capture card is Loopy's work or someone else's but I don't know anyone else working on one. The capture cards were also supposed to be released on August.
Also: does the HDMI modle produce better quality than the USB model? Probably a dumb question but whatever.

This appears to be Loopy's work.
HDMI does not produce better quality I think. However I know very little about this kind of stuff. To my knowledge it just allows you to connect the 3DS to a television screen or something of the sort.

It is possible to connect the 3DS to a TV with USB only by connecting 3DS capture app abled PC/Laptop to a TV via VGA/HDMI and full screen the app. I did that on my DS phat mod. HDMI could lead to a more stable recording method by using a converter box to downscale HDMI to composite/S-video and connect that to a DVD recorder. Assuming the resolution stays intact and doesn't stretch the screens.

He said he got the card from a friend in the description, that friend being Volvagia, who posted multiple times in the thread. It is in fact Loopy's.

Loopy is expecting to receive the important boards on Monday/Tuesday.

This means the time estimate for me to receive my modded 3DS is week commencing August 20th.

I'll live stream some NSMB 2, Super Mario 3D Land and probably OoT 3D, checking out this doomjump fad going on.
