I keep hearing mixed things about this and I'm trying to get a solid answer. I recently got a new 3DS to replace my old one that broke from the Nintendo Repair center, and I noticed the top screen has a slight but noticeable yellow tint to it. I keep hearing mixed reports on whether or not the yellow tint fades away or not. Does anyone know by now if there is a definite answer on this?

I don't know about that, but if it persists, you could always send it back to Nintendo for repairs again. It should be under warranty for a year after a repair.

Yeah, I even still have the box and everything that got shipped with it. I'm hoping I can do a walk in with it so I don't have to go through the shipping process again so I can just get it exchanged.

I wasn't aware that a yellow tint should be there, to begin with. Mine didn't have a yellow tint at all. I think you got one with a display that's faulty, in some way. I'd take it back and get it exchanged, rather than hoping the tint fades away.

As others have said, you should get a replacement as the yellow tint isn't something that's normal. In fact I've never even heard of it before this thread.
