>rising in price heavily this yearYou still have yours, right? Surely you didn't skip>X/Y>ORAS>Sun/Moon or USUM
>>58791936I played them when they came out because I’m not underaged
>>58791936I skipped ORAS because I already played RSE to deathregretting that so much now holy shit
>>58791936>rising in price heavily this yearwhy?
>>58791945No one knows but it is and also I’m contributing
>>58791936I haven't touched mine in 6 years and I am afraid to find out if it even still works...
>>58791945jews
Basically FPBP. It's just gen alpha trying to live a childhood moment they missed.
>>58791950These things are durable as hell. The most you should be worried about is an inflated battery and functioning charger. Maybe some dust as well.

>>58791936Still playing mineI am glad I got mine long ago because people went ape shit over this model thanks to 2020 fuckary, it’s fucking expensive nowNow the problem I have is predictably is the battery, the only place that still has it is Nintendo Japan> just order itToo bad, some retarded airlines regulations prohibiting batteries shipments because they are afraid of another 9/11 or some shitI tried and they denied my requestThe only option is to wait until next October for my trip to Japan.Please for love of God, hold on whatever bullshit you have with China until I get my battery
>>58791937and they were fucking dogshit
>>58792052I have this one too. Played monster hunter almost nightly with friends on it. I dread needing to maintain it.
>>58791936I've got 4 of them but I just emulate on my pc onto my OLED TV now
>>58791945Probably piracy. Kinda like how DS sales skyrocketed with the R4. With a modded 3DS you can pretty much play every pokemon game up to USUM...and a crap ton of other games. Much better than buying the same game again if Nintendo ports it to the Switch for example. Also people not satisfied with the Switch itself might look into getting a 3DS.Sure you can still emulate these on PC as well, but it is more comfortable on the 3DS imo.Also it was a middle finger to scalpers who sold old games at a ridiculous price. But now they might overprice the console itself...And I guess nostalgia? As >>58792025 said, these kind of videos have been more and more common, which mean normies might try it.
>>58791945>Have a limited edition, Ambassadors 3DS in mint condition complete with original box and instructionsFeels good man
>>58791945They are breaking, so people need replacements.
>>58791936Still have my N3DS from 2015. Needs some work done, like a new circle pad and maybe a new shell, but it's usable.Pity the 3DS era marked the beginning of the end for Pokemon. You don't know how good you had it until it's all gone.>>58791945Zoomers realizing how easy it is to mod one. Same thing is happening with the PSP.>>58792052iirc aren't the Switch Pro Controller batteries the same as the 3DS battery? Or does that only apply to the Old 3DS?
>>58792230>Probably piracyWe've had full 3DS piracy and homebrew for almost 10 years. IDK when the h-Shop opened, but I"m sure it was before covid. It's not like there's been a big breakthrough since it could already play every Nintendo hand held ever. No, this is not a factor.
>>58791936>You still have yours, right?If course I do. I have an original version with cfw and 2 N3dsXLs, one with cfw and one without.
this is was fucking pointless actually
>>58792305Mine's not "mint", but I still have the AR raiders cards and shit too. But also a SM Solgaleo/Lunala 3DSXL model to actually use and play my Pokémon/3DS games on.
I got a N3DS XL with the ips screen but I could never get a N3DS small with ips, my life has no meaning.
>>58791945>mine is starting to have circle pad drift that acts up every few minutes>the paint is like 30% chipped off (golden legend of zelda n3ds xl which is also unfortunate to have chipping off)part of me wants to get a new one but i'm also a broke ass neet and i'm also autistic and it wouldn't feel the same if it's not my childhood device
>>58792585>it wouldn't feel the same if it's not my childhood deviceI couldn't afford anything when I was young, you just made me feel better about that. I buy multiple devices to fill the hole.
i was thinking of getting a second one but this shit cost more than a switch 1cant even find that shitty 2ds non flip thing
>>58791936Isn't there a Chinese knock off of this thing yet?Literally every system has been made, either officially or unofficially. Even Sega's old system got official re-releases, how are Chinese 3DS system releases always getting cancelled?
>>58792628Last I checked, Duel Screen emulation is only up to DS?
>>58792729I'm not sure what question you're asking, but sub-$150 portable consoles can easily be made with a chipset that surpasses the PS3. At sub-$250 you can get the Switch 2 chipset in a portable which produces roughly half the TFLOPs in a PS4. That is an insane amount of processing power, but even to get 4X processing power in a portable dual-screen, it can be done for under $100.The only problem I've read about was the 3D function, but I wouldn't mind if they skipped it like when they made a Poverty 3DS.
>>58791945The Emulation scene is fucked because Nintendo cracks down on the wrong sites, Jailbreaking a 3ds became easier, projects rise and fall for numerous reasons.But I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo will crack down on it as well because they hate second hand sales so much.
>>58791936Still have my launch day 3DS and NewXL. Sold my English games and 20th Anniv edition New 3DS last year. Jailbroke my 2011 model and backed up all my saves before selling the carts. I miss having all the rectangles on the shelf, but I made out like a bandit.
>>587919362DS toddlers on suicide watch
>>58791936>XY, ORAS, SM, and USUMGood lord, the 3DS Pokemon games were pathetic. The best of those is probably ORAS, and ORAS is mediocre as hell. Were there at least any good spinoffs on 3DS? I recall the PMD games on 3DS were also mediocre. I guess Rumble Blast was okay, but is that really it?
>>58791945Redditors and sub-IQ hypebeasts who only see pokémon as dollar signs
>>58791936just emulate lole
>>58791936>shit game>remake of shit game>shit game
>>58792758Why don't they make a proper 3DS successor? The Switch was a mistake in hindsight.
>>58793025Why would anyone go back to a smaller screen without switching to a TV sized screen on the fly? Plus making one would be an admission of defeat from Nintendo's part.
>>58792305Why let it rot in the box? Game consoles are meant to played with
>>58793032>making one would be an admission of defeat from Nintendo's partEvery Nintendo system breaks records either at the start, or at the finish of the life cycle. Whatever they release handheld-wise, it's absolutely going to sell. >Every limited edition Pokemon 3DS system immediately sold out every restock>Fire Emblem and Animal Cross sold out immediately>Monster Hunter 3DS sold out immediatelyEven though everyone was downplaying the low-powered system that was fighting mainline consoles PLUS tablet app games becoming widely popular, everything coming out of the Nintendo factory will sell regardless.
