@HELP_PLEASE sounds like one of the ribbon cables has come off. You have to open it up

Did you try contacting Nintendo to set up a repair??

@HELP_PLEASE I don't recommend for you to do it yourself. The 3ds is quite complicated to get into to and you could easily damage the ribbon cables. Contact Nintendo or a specialized technic

@HELP_PLEASE like others have said. If you don’t have that experience or never opened one up then just pay Nintendo or other tech company more money to fix.

I@1UP_MARIO Nintendo no longer will repair the 3ds unfortunately

@HELP_PLEASE Coincidentally, Spawn Wave had 3ds that didn't turn on, like you describe. Which, could possibly mean a screen went bad, or if the 3ds was repaired, sometimes the screen ribbons didn't get plugged back in fully (they seem fussy). I don't know enough to recommend opening your 3ds yourself, though. But if you do, this video may be relevant.

EDIT: Oh, this post & video appear to bolster what 1UP_Mario said above about the ribbon.
