Stuck in between buying the New 3DS XL and Odin 2. Love the nostalgia but since I ever known the 3ds I get the feels to buy it But odin 2 has better ergonomics, comfortability most prolly and it can be docked into the laptop or pc. So I’m stuck buy the nostalgia form factor I didn’t get to experienced back then or go for the modern handheld style What do you suggest? 😭😭😭

@@Blue_Tsuki you can jailbreak it. It’s pretty easy. It’s fun for a few days but gets boring quick. It’s nice to have if you already have one, but not worth it if you can’t find one cheap. I would just go for the modern solution (Odin, steam deck, etc) or maybe a switch if you don’t have one yet.

The main reason I decided to get a 3DS is Pokemon XY. I could say that is the game that I can turn on and not get bored after 1000th time of just starting a new adventure or just go to the battle maison and do triple, rotation and double battles. I do not know why, but Kalos is so well design in aesthetic field that it just keep bringing me back, even though the games itself might feel incompleted with the lack of a third version, I still love those games.

Great video! It’s funny, I might be one of the few, but I absolutely love the 3D effect on the 3DS and always keep it on. I’ve had mine since 2011, and later switched to the New 3DS (non-XL). Honestly, I’ve never turned the 3D off! These days, besides gaming, I’m using it to build a big 3D movie collection by converting all my 3D films into 3DS format. It’s my way of preserving this dying format of stereoscopic 3D.

I don't agree about the 3D - yes it was bad on the original 3DS but on the New 3DS it's really very good. I don't use it all the time but I enjoy it when I do. Personally I'm a bit more into the DSi XL with it's dual IPS screens and better image on DS games but it all depends on whether you are playing a DS or 3DS game. As for the 2DS XL - you can really feel the 'cheapness' of the device with it's floppy hinge and cheap plastic shell. Now the original 2DS still feels solid and is very comfortable to hold.

The 3DS was my favorite console ever. The new models were coming out while I was in college. My friends and I would all go get the new models when they came out and play together. StreetPass was by far the best thing ever to come to the gaming world! I hope the new switch has that feature. Now that Nintendo abandoned the 3ds by closing the servers, it's fair game to hack them. Take it with you places to bring back StreetPass!

Like the particles in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D has when walking around Korok Forest. The games that really try having objects pop out the screen, what other handheld device is doing that? Especially when put by my modded Wii U, this is easily my favorite console, if not possession.
