Timorn Analog Stick Cap Circle Pad Replacement 3D Joystick Cover for New 3DS / 3DS / 3DSLL / 3DSXL / 2DS Controller (Dark Gray)

Good replacement

My original review disappeared, this was an excellent fit I tried to provide a picture but it wouldnt let me, it wont feel the same but you can hardly tell the difference it was a wonderful replacement to my sisters 3ds which I repaired by myself!!

Decent replacement circle pad replacement - follow one of many YouTube videos to learn how to replace. It does require a small screwdriver (the type used to tighten glasses will do) and care following along to the instructions. But once you get it installed it feels decent but not quite the same as the original circle pad. You get 2 here so good value.

If you buy it expecting a rubber cap then you'll be disappointed. Its only plastic but still does the job.

It's not rubber but a soft feel coating on a plastic base. I'm sure it does the job but they should drop the price and stop lying on the page, a tenner is way too steep for the product.

Can't say much but does exactly what it says on the tin! Straight out the packet and applied on the analog sticks and it worked!

Good replacement

I was initially skeptical to buy these as many others mentioned they were smaller than the original. However, once I had the new analog sticks in hand (it came with two) I was immediately relieved. It has a rubbery but slightly smoother texture than the OEM analog sticks. Regarding the size, it is barely smaller which still allows it to function identically to the original. Another worry I had when I initially bought these sourced from another review saying that they used isopropyl alcohol to clean them and they immediately deteriorated. I can safely report that this is not the case as I tried cleaning it with isopropyl alcohol and a q-tip. It cleaned and dried as expected. I'd imagine that if you rubbed hard enough that it would damage the stick but I assume that gentle cleaning wouldn't. I'd highly recommend getting these and finding a video on how to replace it on your device. Using these on a 2DS system was a pretty simple process.

Purchased to repair my new 3ds xl after the original joystick cap wore out. Matched the dimensions of the original perfectly and the cover material feels even better than the original in my opinion.

The joystick fits and works perfectly. It is very easy to install. The only "issue" I would mention is that the feel is not rubbery but a smooth matte instead. Also, the material looks like it will tend to peel over time. Nevertheless, I would recommend it as a decent replacement.

They work well if you need to replace the 3DS thumbstick. They don't have that authetic feel, but break in over time to where it's hard to tell
