i-CON 3DS Aluminum Case Unboxing & Review

2011-03-28
what's up guys it's Lou from unbox therapy comm and today we're looking at the aluminum case for your Nintendo 3ds this one is from Ikon and it's in the blue color it's also available in red and this was actually thrown in as a gift from Future Shop at the midnight release of the Nintendo 3ds so anybody who purchased one got one of these cases for free now as it is with anything that's free my expectations are not extremely high that being said I'm looking forward to trying it on and getting some sort of protection on my new device so there's nothing else in the box besides the case itself and judging from the appearance of it it looks like it probably just snaps into place it's got a soft felt interior definitely made out of aluminum and obviously you've got your cutouts for your cameras the bottom side has cutouts for everything the your game your different switches volume LEDs etc let's go ahead and try it on the device as you can see it looks pretty good actually it just clips on so I'm not sure if it's gonna loosen over time but it feels real tight right now the color is like a blueish kind of purple anyway you still get access to all your switches that's your 3d switch as well as your Wi-Fi switch all your ports on the back remain open now the one question everybody's gonna have is can you still put it in the dock with the case on now that's kind of an interesting thing because yes you can but it doesn't really fit as it was intended to fit so it will charge but the front edge doesn't clip properly so I'm gonna go ahead and show you some pictures you see it doesn't really slide in there very nicely so it will charge but it's not necessarily how it was intended but that's fine after all this case was a throw-in anyways and as far as protection is concerned it seems like it's going to be pretty tough so I'm okay with it anyway be sure to check back to our channel and subscribe I'm still working on the review I'm gonna cover everything so there's gonna be a lot of 3ds coverage coming up in the next few days later
