i made the resolution better, but now the screen is a lot smaller, and now i feel like i have to squint at the screen in order to see whats on it

But this method does still leave black bars, correct? I was under the impression that the blown up resolution would fill the bottom screen and leave black bars on the top and the 1:1 resolution wouldn't even fill the bottom screen because the resolution is higher. Ripcurl530

Only my bottom is doing it. How do I reset it? It won't spin anymore, just spins when I pop it in? So I can't fix it.Metal_Meatwad

are you talking about starting it up or changing it back?

i just tried to play the game again, and it went back to original resolution, after looking at it, i prefer the lower resolution with the bigger screen than a higher resolution with a micro size screen

Mine doesnt do it...

I updated it. Maybe the update took that away. DS games look fine on it. Anyone else update it then try to do this?

Nope it didn't work. Ok. If this can't be fixed, I'm returning the system for a new one. I guess mine is broken? Thanks IGN.....Metal_Meatwad

I bet the update took that away so people aren't complaining about the stretched screen.

I mean the update took away the option to change the resolution. Mine just plays DS games with their normal resolution. Looks fine to me...

I'm just stuck at this: http://i1114.photobucket.com/albums/k529/jasonosiason22/fg.jpgMetal_Meatwad

so is that at high resolution or low resolution?

you can tell during gameplay if its kinda blurry or not, thats low resolution

I updated my 3DS, and I can still do it after the update. When I hold start & select and select the DS game option its starts the game in the original game resolution - so you have a tiny box on top screen and a tiny box on the bottom screen - which does not use all of the bottom screen up at all. The image is slightly sharper, but much smaller. I will definitely prefer to play in the stretched mode - which require nothing special, just putting the game in and playing it. The image takes up the whole bottom screen and the same size on the top (with obvious black bars on the sides on the top only). THe image may be a bit blurrier, but barely. YoBrandino

doesnt it STILL play in original resolution if you dont press the buttons. I dont think you can go back to stretched once you do the update.

How can I test if my select button works? Everything is touch. I'm thinking that might be my problem. When I press both buttons nothing happens anymore. So maybe the select button is busted?Metal_Meatwad

i doubt it especially if its a new system, try again to hold the Select & Start buttons, then while holding them both, hit the DS game icon

Guys, you CANT change the resolution anymore after the update.

It ONLY plays in native. The start/select thing doesnt work anymore. It defaults to normal DS resolution.

Just retried to confirm.

Here is the default way (streched):

And here is after holding start/select while choosing the game:

Can you see the difference then?

And yes, Elebits is an AWESOME DS game!!

The guy with the problems, I'm gonna ask a question that seems pretty obvious to me.

Are you reseting your 3DS everytime you try to change the resolution or are you trying to do this from in-game (which is what it sounds to me like you are doing).

Go back to the 3DS' home menu, hold select (just select) and tap the touchscreen top start the game, problem solved I'm sure.
