Broad Compatibility for Nintendo Handhelds

It connects via a proprietary 4-pin connector on the console end and a standard USB Type-A plug on the other. The cable is not compatible with the original Nintendo DS or DS Lite models.

Replaces Lost or Worn Original Cables

The 1.2 metre length lets you play comfortably while charging from a wall adapter, power bank, or laptop USB port. Built-in safeguards protect against overcurrent and overheating during use. The 24 AWG copper wiring supports efficient power delivery at 5V with smart current negotiation. Buyers who need a shorter cable for travel or a USB-C host connection should look elsewhere.

Limited to 5V USB-A Power Sources

Charging speed depends entirely on the host port's output capability and the console's own power management. The cable cannot deliver higher voltages or currents beyond standard USB-A specifications. Durability is rated for over 10000 bend cycles, but the fixed connector ends cannot be repaired or replaced if damaged.

Questions about this item

What connector does the TriverseTech cable use to plug into a Nintendo 3DS or 2DS?

The cable has a proprietary 3DS/2DS/DSi connector on one end and a standard USB Type A male plug on the other for power sources.

How do I install the cable so the console charges while I play?

Insert the 3DS connector firmly until it clicks, then plug the USB Type A end into any 5 V USB port; the 1.2 m length lets you keep gaming.

How long will the cable last before the wiring or connectors need replacing?

It is rated for over 10,000 bend cycles using 24 AWG copper, so normal daily use should give years of reliable charging.
