In the last year, though, got a used Playstation 3, used Vita, and refurbished New 3DS XL to try some of the exclusive games I'd heard about but never got to play. Currently playing Shin Megami Tensei IV, which is only the second game in that series I've played.

      The only thing it is missing is GBA games but apparently, if you get a 3DS hacked it is literally the best GBA emulator, or at least on par with the original DS which means it plays them flawlessly.
      I am gonna save up to grab a hacked console, load up every game I love from my childhood with the greats of GBA to the greats of the 3DS, and store it in a nice dry-cool-safe place for my future kids or my future niece/nephew.
      They aren't growing up on mobile game garbage. They are getting the good sh*t when they leave the house. Everything from Harvest Moon & Rune Factory, to (Gen 3&4) Pokemon, to Kid Icarus Uprising, even Megaman Battle Network and FF Tactics Advanced. I just haven't decided if I will throw trash licensed games on there since I don't think we will ever see another Shrek Kart 2 port and that is a good way to teach the difference between sh*t and quality.

      No. Having been someone who used Nintendo consoles/emulators solely to play Pokémon games, over the course of time I've found that DS and GBA have much larger and better library of games than I ever thought, and when you compare Pokémon to it, it just comes out as overrated, and even though I love Pokémon games myself even today, I hate the fact that it overshadows other great titles released on these consoles. The Legend of Zelda games, Metroid games, Castlevania games, The World ends with you, Golden Sun, Super Mario games, Shin Megami Tensei, 999, etc. I could be going on forever.
