Friday Night Fights: No AC adapter required

Game with the Dtoid community

Recommended Videos

Happy Friday!

Welcome to another exciting edition of Friday Night Fights! Now with 100% more solar power!

I assume by now that most of you have heard the news regarding the New 3DS XL and its lack of an AC adapter. This news, obviously and understandably troublesome to many of you out there, came as quite a shocker as this is the first piece of hardware released by Nintendo in recent history (here in America) to lack any sort of power supply.

I’m definitely still going to buy one, or two, because I’m a sucker for Nintendo stuff and I have like 20 adapters lying around the house. But I totally get it if you’re not on board.

Either way, I’m sure this isn’t the last we’ll hear about this power adapter debate. Oh well, what’re ya gonna do? Oh I know, play some damn games with some awesome Dtoiders!

Now let’s get to why you’re here, the games! 

Friday Night Fights

New to FNF? Read this! Each week, a bunch of us Dtoiders get together to play videogames online! It’s a 100% community-run event, so feel free to join in or even host something yourself!

The planning for FNF starts in the forums, where community members sign up to host matches and post their pertinent details (game, time, Gamertag, etc.). Then, every Friday, reminder posts go up in the community blogs thanks to a dedicated group of volunteers, and I recap it all here on the front page to give it a bit more exposure.

To join in, simply send a friend request to the match host! If you’d rather host something yourself, sound off in the comments section below!
