Goddamn that name, first of all.
Anyways, so I bought a "New Nintendo 3DS XL" and the bottom screen broke recently. I'm looking around online for a replacement touch screen, and they range $30-$40. But I see tons of screens for the old Nintendo 3DS XL for much cheaper. My question is will the old 3DS XL LCD screen work on the New Nintendo 3DS XL? They both appear the same dimensions. I don't need the digitizer, mind you. Just the display.

Meant to say "I don't mean the digitizer"

You could ask the people on eBay that sell parts. IMO, only someone that has repaired both DS models would truly know that.
However the connections and sizes seem to be the same. I would assume a Old DS screen may work. Take in mind I have no idea what functions does a "New" DS have over an old one. Could be that a "New" DS screen has more pixels or a screen that is brighter. If I was you I would buy the one for a "New" DS.
If you have no clue how to install a new screen you also run the chance of fucking up your handheld even worse.
