Keep dreaming
You never know what will come up, I can't see it happening for some years yet but I could be wrong.
There is still no Xbox emulator out that can play retail games and there are plenty of emulators that are yet to be perfected that are out.
PS3 / 360 have no emulators neither does the PSVita and to be honest I don't think there should be
P.S. why don't you send the 3DS off to Nintendo to fix, there will be a charge for a 3DS that is more than year old or if you don't have proof of when you got it with in the year (A leter to say congrats you won or something like that), the charge will be less than buying a new 3DS, unless you have taken the thing apart yourself at some point then they may not look at it
I was lucky with my 1st gen 3DS and had it repaired twice so my warrenty has lasted more than the standard year and was extended each time it was booked in for repairs
I think you should go to the Nintendo Web site find the number for booking repairs and ask them or ask them online, I don't remember what I done but my contacts are all uk contacts so not much point in me giving you the exact info I used
