Posts on NeoGaf, AVForums, and DigitalSpy are reporting instances of the freshly-christened â€œblack screen of deathâ€ error requiring a hard reset of the system. Super Monkey Ball, Street Fighter IV 3D, Pilotwings, Ghost Recon, Lego Star Wars, and Mii applications have all been mentioned in connection to the error. Some users have found the issue is resolved by the reset suggested on-screen, while others have reformatted their SD cards to FAT-32 format and eliminated the problem. Others have had less luck resolving ongoing crashes, and have resorted to returning the console to the retailer for replacement. Weâ€™ve reached out to Nintendo for official comment and more information. A new console/handheld with problems, oh what fun. Though it does look a little like the screen that happened with flashcart users and the DSi. Good to know Nintendo is on the ball with errors.. Logged

Anyway, I'm quite surprised that this problems seems so "common" in comparison to whatever errors previous Nintendo-consoles returned. I read about it on TinyCartridge, too. You might be right with your guess about DSi- and flashcarts, FISSURE. But apparently, this seems to affect normal 3DS-games as well. Logged

According to one report, i think people are saying it has to do with wifi connectivity or something. According to Nintendo it's happening to people who haven't downloaded the recent update. Logged
