@Sakura_Moonlight2421 It might be something we can look at offering in the future, but unlike the smaller covers which are designed to be interchangable, changing the cover of a larger 3DS might affect the warranty for the console.
@AVahne There isn't any difference - it works in exactly the same way as the official plate (there are two 'keys' which slot into two small holes on the 3ds so it fits into place)
We thought it would be nice for people to have a blank canvas for creative folk to express themselves after one of our artist friends enquired about making custom plates - and at the moment the only blank official plates ship with the consoles.
@abwx We can do embossed designs already - we've had to temporarily remove the custom plate option to keep up with demand though Basically as long as people can provide a vector image we can emboss most things!
As for the bottom plates, we've modelled them but haven't been able to source screws yet for them - they will be up as soon as we do!
@DonnaxNL Hi Donna, sorry about that! February has been our busiest month on record and your message may have slipped through the cracks. We'd love to reply to you right now, but at the moment etsy seems to be having some maintenance/stability issues when we're trying to access it. [Perhaps all the traffic from Nintendo Life may be responsible for that? ]
When etsy is behaving itself again, if you give us a nudge in the etsy conversation, we'll try to make it right.
