This is becayse it’s become trendy for zoomers to mod their 3DSs and make them all in one portable retro systems.

People aren't buying these "spiked prices". People are going to keep listing them for 200-300 and unless Nintendo announces the 3ds free prostitute program, I don't see the prices changing anytime soon. They're not rare at all.
>>
>>729587696
The prices for them already went up a few years ago, I hope this nothingburger being reported doesn't result in an actual real spike caused by panicked normalfags rushing to buy them up

If physical copies of the games are becoming unusable and the eshop is closed, what are people doing with their 3DSes? People still hacking them? I still have my hacked 3DS somewhere.

Are there any retro consoles that are currently dropping in price significantly?
I want to buy something, but I want it to be really cheap.

DS and GBAs are fairly cheap for modern standards, you can snag a good one for $50
The 3DS is spiking from simple nostalgia, and it happens with every system.
Give it another 5 years and it'll be cheap again while everyone scrambles to buy Switch OLEDs or something.
>>
>>729587696
Sold a zoom zoom one of my 3DS' for an extra $50 cause they wanted me to mod it for them. Sure, they're buying the old (and superior) hardware, but they're still retarded

i've been emulating older games instead of buying new ones. it's all slop

Shut up zoom

>>729589376
That's likely going to be the case for Switch/2 games btw.
They're becoming duds since they're not being used, it's probably best to have at least one physical game around, just so dust doesn't get into the cartridge slot.

There's also the fact of emulation. And it's also worth mentioning that many young people show interest and curiosity in retro games.

when modern gaming is asking you to shell out hundreds of dollars for a system and $70 per slop game, paying $300 for a portable system that can emulate every good era of gaming is just a good deal.
>>
>>729588074
No it's because production has ceased so quantities are limited
>>
>>729590363
DS and 3DS are two of the few consoles that can be better with real hardware desu. DS prices stay cheap compared to 3DS because it was always cheaper and there's also a billion of them.

it can't even emulate up to PS1 and N64 games so this makes no sense.
the comfiest thing you can do with a modded 3DS is make your own wallpapers.
i made a UT distant worlds one forever ago.
they're comfy but a $80 chinkheld will beat them in terms of emulating shit any day.

Any websites where I can buy an original DS really cheap?
And what games do you recommend?

By the way, no Pokémon games, no Zelda games, no Mario games, and no Nintendo franchises.

I only want games from franchises that people universally associate with PlayStation and Xbox.

3DS has been on my backlog since…it fucking came out. I was going to buy the orange and white 2DS XL back in like 2017 when it released but it ended up being EU exclusive I believe and NA got the ugly black and blue one so I didn’t buy it. And then it went out of production. OOPS!!

I’ve often wondered what’s stopping companies from simply reissuing new hardware. What’s stopping Nintendo from simply making more 3DS or GCNs due to nostalgia the demand is definitely there. You’re telling me it Miyamoto wanted a new 3DS they couldn’t get one for him?

I find it funny that I bought a 3ds exclusively to play NDS games plus any 3ds game that i could have found interesting, but the only 3ds game i played was just MH3U
The library the system has just sucks, at least it's good at emulating ps1

>>729587696
A jail broken 3ds is the best console bar none, I’ve got 3, access to every game downloadable straight from the system you’ll never run out of shit to play. If you’re a pokefag there’s tutorials on how to turn one into a dedicated poke console including making all your mons legitimate if you’re a pokehomefag

Nice. I've got one that I've jailbroken and have been playing with to try and understand what's the appeal before selling it. I don't understand desu, this platform has no games that appeal to me. I guess old-school Zelda is kinda cool. I wouldn't bother with it at all if SMT 4 and Strange Journey weren't locked to the platform.

Slight tangent, but nintendofags have been the ones I've had the best experience with when selling my old shit. Xbox/PSfags are always "low-income" and always ask for a 30% discount off what I'm listing it for, which is always a fair price considering the condition and other listings in the area.

If the 2DS were just a little better I would have liked it. A bigger, more tactile dpad and a brighter screen could would have been huge improvements.

all modern gaming has is callbacks to the old, how much shittier would Nintendo Switch Online look if you could go buy yourself a GameCube and a stack of games right now?

The OG's (not New or XL) battery is the same as the Switch Pro Controller, so they're still being made for now. For the charging port you can actually just use the two pins on each side of the port with the original dock, or swap it out with an USB-C port.
