3D Depth Slider Is Unable to Adjust 3D Image
Nintendo 3DS
The information in this article can help you when the 3D depth slider will no longer affect the onscreen image.
Important
- If Parental Controls have been set to restrict 3D images, the 3D depth slider will not change the image to 3D.
- The Nintendo 2DS and New Nintendo 2DS XL do not display 3D images; they do not have a 3D Depth Slider.
What to do
Verify that the game or feature supports 3D images.
Situation not resolved
If the 3D depth still can't adjust the image, the system will need to be replaced.
Nintendo no longer services the following systems:
- Original Nintendo 3DS - Serial numbers begin with “CW” or “CB”
- Original Nintendo 3DS XL - Serial numbers begin with “SW” or “SB”
- New Nintendo 3DS - Serial numbers begin with “YW”
- New Nintendo 3DS XL - Serial numbers begin with “QW” or "QB"
- Nintendo 2DS - Serial numbers begin with "AW" or "AB"
