Are you tired of walking or trying to shake your Nintendo 3DS for play coins? Well, I made something that can solve it! Introducing the K'nex Nintendo 3DS play coin generator. All you need to do is put the 3ds on top of the holder and turn on the two motors and wait for 1-10 minutes or so. When you get 10 play coins, change the date ahead.
