Today we're happy to release hundreds of 3DS photos from inside of Foxconn, the factory where most Nintendo products are manufactured. We don't know exactly where these photos come from in the factory, but we believe they may be from a repair facility.

<h2>RED-CPU-X3</h2>
|
|
This is a prototype 3DS XL dated 2012/01/04. It's hard to tell what's going on, but it seems like the touch screen ribbon cable may have been faulty. The motherboard and cartridge board are both X3.

<h2>RED-CPU-X4 (unconfirmed)</h2>
|
|
This might be a prototype 3DS XL dated 2012/01/03. The top screen and SD card reader are X4, but the battery board connector appears to be X1. There are no photos of the motherboard revision so it's impossible to confirm exactly what prototype this is. The X1 cable got a lot of attention so maybe this is why the prototype was in for repair.

<h2>KTR-CPU-X6</h2>
|
|
This is a prototype new 3DS XL dated 2014/03/17. There appears to have been damage to the shoulder button, part of the motherboard, the SD card reader, the bottom screen, touch screen, connectors... Whew, that poor prototype. You can see that the motherboard is X6, but the SD reader and battery board are X5.<br>

There is also a photo and video of a gyroscope tester. This is used to confirm that the 3DS can detect if it is moving around or if it was turned to the side.

<h2>Unknown new 3DS XL (black)</h2>
|
|
This 3DS XL is dated 2012/01/01 and seems to have been brought in due to a bad screen and mic. The photos for this 3DS are extremely corrupted so it's impossible to know if this is a prototype. The microphone is an X2, but that's very little to go off of.

<h2>Unknown new 3DS XL (pink)</h2>
|
|
This 3DS XL is dated 2012/03/19. This is another that might be a prototype but has no good evidence. You can barely make out an X on the ribbon cable (X6?) but that's basically nothing. The factory PC shows that the mic calibration failed, though weirdly enough there are only photos of repairing the speakers and some CTR EVA boot loop.

<h2>Battery/power testing</h2>
|
|
There are over a hundred photos of a spectrum analyzer. You can see a 3DS in the reflection, possibly from the battery test setup shown in the last three photos (these are not from the SD card).
