Should I take it to game stop?! I mean...so they can send it off?! I don't know we're to send it. How to call them, how to get ahold off them.

Mine has this, too. I really think you should consider getting a Nerf Case; I got one after gluing mine back together (It was a bad idea but it worked.) and it stays perfectly in place.

Really? That's odd, I thought the case would work fine. Other than that, I really don't have any big suggestions rather than just living with it. I know It's annoying sometimes, but I think you can cope with it once you get used to it.

Probably because you asked to buy it lol.
The same thing happened to my DS Lite. I coped, though. As long as it still functions properly, you'll be fine. But, either way, I recommend you get it fixed. Do some searching and you'll find information on where to send it to get it back to normal. No need to cry, darling.

lol I was just about to post this too
I had the EXACT same problem with my 3DS when I broke the hinge too. Just send use the link and then follow the instructions to mail it to Nintendo. As long as there's a UPS store around where you live, you should be fine. For me, it took about 2 weeks to get it to Nintendo and back to me.
Btw, to everyone telling her to get a new 3DS, THE REPAIRS ARE FREE IF ITS UNDER WARRANTY. (which it most likely is). All you have to pay for is the box to put your 3DS in when shipping it to Nintendo.

It's not broken
It's chipped off

Water/dust could enter through the chipped off part, and it will just make it harder for her. So it is broken, even though a part is only chipped off.

That will only happen out of carelessness
Yes, but the point is its still broken. There's a possibility that dust, or anything that shouldn't be inside the 3DS can enter that little hole, and it will cause more problems than just a chipped R button.

Why don't you just use superglue? It looks like only plastic chipped off.
You can watch some videos on how to fix it on youtube.
Check your warranty first and if you got it, send it.
Ask a professional on how much would it cost and if its more expensive just buy a new one, you could try an 2DS I know many people don't like them since they are big, I have one and my partner has an 3DS XL and we both think my 2DS is way more comfortable and they are way cheaper.
The decision in the end has to be up to you

Please take a note that, even if it's under warranty doesn't mean you'll get it fixed for free. Especially, if damage is most likely caused by user.
