My 3DS was stolen during my stay in Italy. I'm trying to get my money back through my insurance. But does anybody know if there is some kind of tracking system on the 3DS? Or a way to block the 3DS from certain things like internet, from a distance using a different media like my pc? thanks

What?

Wallets are stolen regularly and they are most commonly kept in the pocket

What exactly are you trying to say?

Dang dude that sucks, and I don't think there's a tracking device on the 3DS. All I can tell you is to save up and buy a new one again and be more protective of it next time.

My 3DS went missing less than a month after getting it, so I totally feel the TC's pain. :(

Every pair of pants I own have the two front pockets, and two back pockets (I don't do cargo pants or shorts), so with my keys, wallet, and phone, I don't have room for my 3DS in my pockets, and even if I did it would be an uncomfortably tight squeeze, so I have literally never kept my 3DS in my pocket, and I'm sure that's true of a lot of people. Additionally, even if everyone did keep their 3DS in the pockets whenever it wasn't in use, things like cellphones, wallets, and keys are stolen out of people's pockets all the time... so... yeah. But, TC, I'm pretty sure nothing like what you described can be done... sorry, man. That really sucks.

Unfortunately, there is no way to actually track your 3DS.

Sorry.

Call Nintendo, maybe they can brick it so the person who stolen it can't use it either...
