Nintendo 3DS does not have a reliable charging connector, but it does have a power socket that has some outside contacts for the charge station. I managed to create a simple dock with Pogo pins for charging N3DS. It's made like a box so you easily can put a step-down converter if needed.
If you want you can use it like a simple stand.
Supplies:
- Pogo pins
- USB cable
- (optional) superglue or hot glue


The height of the Pogo pins should be set so that the console does not lift.
