Shipping S$51.75 — your parcel leaves the Netherlands.

Order more than one and you share the shipping: a second game rides along free.

Parcels worth up to S$400 in total (shipping included) arrive without GST or duty. Above S$400, Singapore charges 9% GST on the whole value, collected by SingPost before delivery — it is not included in the price at checkout.

Crossing the border costs you more and takes longer. That you accept that anyway means a great deal to me.

We ship from the Netherlands: your parcel crosses the world, so it takes longer and costs more than a domestic delivery. Parcels worth up to S$400 in total (shipping included) arrive without GST or duty — we are not registered for Singapore GST, so the import relief applies. Above S$400, 9% GST is charged on the whole value and collected by SingPost before delivery — it is not included in the price at checkout.

On your console in Singapore: Nintendo 3DS games are region-locked: this European (PAL) edition plays on a European (PAL) Nintendo 3DS — check the region of your console, or ask us in the chat.

Singapore is outside the EU. If your parcel is worth S$400 or less in total, shipping included, no GST or duty is added: we are not registered for Singapore GST, so the import relief for postal and air shipments applies. Above S$400, Singapore charges 9% GST on the whole value (goods plus shipping), collected by SingPost before delivery, sometimes with a small handling fee. None of this is included in the price at checkout. Singapore only levies customs duty on liquor, tobacco, motor vehicles and fuel — not on games, consoles or cards. You pay in Singapore dollars — Credit card or PayPal. The amount at checkout is what your card or PayPal is charged, at our fixed shop rate; your bank converts nothing.

Why does shipping abroad cost this much?

Inside the Netherlands a single game fits through the letterbox — S$6.33, tracking included. That service stops at the border. Anything leaving the country goes with PostNL as an international parcel, which is a different and considerably more expensive service. That is where the S$51.75 comes from: the border itself is not what costs money, the cheap service simply ends there.

That amount covers the PostNL rate to your country plus the packaging: bubble mailer or box, an antistatic sleeve for the cartridge, and tape. We never drop the tracking — on a parcel that crosses a border, shipping without proof of delivery is a risk for both of us.

Without you there would be nothing to grow. Every order that comes in here is the reason this shop can get bigger — and the reason I can keep doing this.

About this product

Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games for Nintendo 3DS — a title from the Mario universe, a cornerstone of any Nintendo collection.

Mario and Sonic compete together in Olympic sports.

Cartridge cleaned and tested on original hardware, ready to play.

The Nintendo 3DS came out in 2011: autostereoscopic 3D screen, StreetPass, backwards compatible with DS games. On the original cartridge the game runs the way it was meant to — and keeps working for years to come.

Who is this for? Anyone who would rather play on a real Nintendo 3DS than in an emulator — collectors who want the original in their hands, and players who simply want that feeling back.

Nintendo 3DS games are region-locked: this European (PAL) edition plays on a European (PAL) Nintendo 3DS — check the region of your console, or ask us in the chat. Every item passes our authenticity check (shell, board, Nintendo markings) and a function test — you're buying 100% original Nintendo.

Shipped from the Netherlands with PostNL tracking to Singapore: from S$51.75; no GST or duty on parcels up to S$400 including shipping. 30-day returns.

Seen it cheaper elsewhere?

For most titles there’s also a private listing online, sometimes a few euros cheaper. The difference isn’t in the title, but in the copy itself and in everything around it.

Does it work?: Here: Has been running here — save and label checked — before it went online.; Private seller: ‘Works’ in the photo. You test it yourself, after buying.
Is it genuine?: Here: Label, product code on the back, colour and shape of the card, and booting. A reproduction doesn’t get through.; Private seller: Fakes are a plague with Pokémon and GBA games, and in a photo you can’t tell the difference.
If it disappoints?: Here: 30-day cooling-off period, and a 30-day warranty that it works.; Private seller: No right of withdrawal: consumer law doesn’t apply between private individuals. Buyer protection only covers the first 48 hours after delivery; after that you’re on your own.
Who’s behind it?: Here: One person, who has held this game personally and answers your question personally.; Private seller: Varies per listing.

Why you still remember this

The jump that’s still in your thumb

You only need to hear half a second of the opening tune and you’re back with the thing on your lap — in the back seat, or under the covers with the sound so low nobody heard. That one level you did twenty times until your timing was right — your fingers remember before your head does.

One copy, this copy. Second-hand means there’s no warehouse behind it: what’s here is what there is.

Will it work on my console?

Authenticity check

How we test Nintendo 3DS games for authenticity

3DS cartridges (2011-2020) have anti-counterfeit security, but fakes exist. We go through these five steps. Every Nintendo 3DS game in our shop goes through this five-step check before it is sold.

1
Card with a tab + sharp label
A 3DS card has a small protruding tab on the right, so it does not fit in a DS, and a slightly matte, sharply printed label. Glossy or blurry print is suspicious.
2
Product code CTR-XXXX
On the back: CTR- prefix (the internal codename of the 3DS). CTR-P-ECRP = Omega Ruby EU. No CTR- prefix or a mismatch = fake.
3
"Nintendo 3DS" branding
The cartridge must say "Nintendo 3DS", NOT "Nintendo DS" or "Nintendo DSi". Fakes often get this wrong.
4
Start-up test on a 3DS
The cartridge appears as an icon in the 3DS Home menu. An original cartridge gives the cinematic intro. Fakes give "data corrupted" or open a strange launcher.
5
Region and save test
A European card starts on a European 3DS or 2DS — an American or Japanese one does not, so the region on the label has to match. Then: save, switch off, switch on again; the save must still be there.

What we see with Nintendo 3DS games

Our experience

3DS cartridges can be recognised by the CTR product code and the tab on the side — that tab keeps them out of a DS. Since the eShop closed (March 2023), loose cartridges are the only way left to get 3DS games. We check cartridges with a start-up test, a region check and a save test.

Our tip

3DS cartridges only work on 3DS/2DS systems. NOT backwards compatible to DS systems (it does work the other way round: a 3DS plays DS games). The nicest screen is in the New 3DS XL and the New 2DS XL.

About the Nintendo 3DS

The Nintendo 3DS (2011) is the direct successor to the DS and adds a glasses-free 3D effect to the top screen. The platform is fully backwards compatible with all DS games, which means you can effectively play 3,000+ titles. The 3DS eShop closed in March 2023 — since then, physical cartridges are the only way to get new content.

Fully backwards compatible with all Nintendo DS games.
The 3D effect can be switched off — it works in 2D for comfort during long sessions.
The eShop has been closed since March 2023. Physical 3DS cartridges get more expensive every year as supply dwindles.
Pokémon X/Y, Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon and Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D are the most sought-after titles.

Our tip: 3DS cartridges are rarely counterfeited — the chip technology is too complex. So when buying, pay attention above all to the region (an American cartridge does not start on a European 3DS), the condition and the label quality; we check every copy anyway.
