"I got this after having an issue on my UK trip and finding out that the US Nintendo charger does not convert the voltage so could not use this with adapters I take when I travel."
"im very satisfied with my purchase why didnt nintendo thought abut this and make it come with the new nintendo 3ds out of the box."
"You need to supply a power source such as a powered USB hub or other usb power converter."
"Works fine for our son's New Nintendo 3DS XL."
"These charging cords are the perfect length for plugging into the wall and still being able to play my 3DS."
"It means we can plug these into small USB power bricks, USB car chargers, computer USB ports and our USB power banks."
"I've only used these for one charge so far, so I can't speak for how long they will last or their durability over time, but so far they've been more convenient than any other Nintendo DS charger I've ever used."

"How annoying it can be to walk around, lets say, a convention, and you're challenged by someone to play a good game of Pokemon, how bad would it be that your 3DS is on its last legs of red light and it starts blinking in battle?"
"It charges at a great rate almost mirroring that of my previous DS charger - no complaints - and it has a niiiiice durable finish to it."
"Not only has this chord by 6amLifestyle offered the medium to charge a Nintendo 3DS, it has also brought a great amount of entertainment and customer happiness into my outlook on 6amLifestyle as a company."
"This cable does its job perfectly: it charges my Nintendo 3DS just as fast as the standard Nintendo charger and has the huge advantage of plugging into a standard USB port (as opposed to Nintendo's obnoxious "brick" which tends to cover up every other outlet)."
"I was looking for a USB-based cord that I could use for my 3ds and battery pack when we got hit with Irma (there's only so many board games you can play for more than a week without power before familial relationships start to deteriorate), and this worked perfectly."
"So it's a braided cable - well, braid-shielded, not fully braided - that lets you charge your 3DS/2DS from a USB charger."
"Everytime when I play Mario Kart 7 with my friends, I usually played for so long my battery ran out."

"Works as expected."
"I get few 3DS USB cords before from this site and eBay but those cords didn't work the best."
"I plugged this directly into a surge protector extension cord, with a few USB plugs, and it charges the New Nintendo 2DS as good as the original charger."
"But it did give my system a full charge."
"Took it on a short trip where I wanted to be able to use a phone battery back to charge if needed."
"Worked good to charge my 3DS."

"The Nintendo DS Lite and later versions use a different adapter. However, they were written by people who never got the correct adapter, either because one of many sellers sent the wrong one, or because they bought the wrong one without realizing that different models of DS use different adapters. The adapter I received has a part number of USG-002 on it (which is the correct number for the DS Lite) but has the correct connector for the original DS. Given that Nintendo was including what was essentially a generic adapter made by a third party, getting the same adapter should give you a reliable one."
"Our gameboy charger we did have was on its last leg and we use the gameboy to pass time when were out so the fast shipping was fantastic!!!!"
"IT'S GOOD TO HAVE THE ORIGINAL STUFF!!!"
"As far as I can tell almost all of the one star reviews are by people who clearly did not read the item description or are simply ignorant of the electronics they own. It is a little difficult to get the plug to seat correctly in my GBA SP's jack, but at least I know it won't just randomly fall out."
"I think this needs more poor reviews however, I do not readily give one stars or five stars. I received the 3DS charger, not the GBA charger which is pictured here."
"Another sidenote is the cord is a little shorter than what I'd prefer."
