    I have a 2ds and I ablosultely love it. I so miss the days when I played all those games as a kid for the first time. I feel rlly nostalgic thinking about the good old days when I see my 2ds now.

    This was a fantastic beginners guide to the 3DS. If you could get into the nit and grit of how expensive and/or rare 3rd party accessories can be would
    be awesome. Looking at Cyber Gadget grips, HORI Monster Hunter grips (iterations for the different models), the difference in rarity depending on the model (regular, regular new, and new Xl 3DS grips), their prices, etc, would be cool.

      They mostly can only run stuff in DS mode. I suppose that's fine if you're ok with those limitations but the OG DS struggled with things like SNES or Genesis emulation. You also won't be able to play 3DS titles, just OG DS. It's true R4 cards are super easy to set up and they cost next to nothing but you really ought to mod your 3DS and run the DSi homebrew Twilight Menu if you want DS games & homebrew on the 3DS.

    I bought the New 3ds regular today. Already have N3ds XL with IPS screens ,but i need back up just in case. Seeing PC handhelds that going bigger & bigger make me appreciate how convenient to have pocketable handhelds. I don't need advance graphics, i just need fun & enjoyable games.

    I like the original 3ds. It's so small and pocketable. It also has an advantage that the new 3ds models don't have. It can be played in direct sunlight. Even at max brightness with the new models I struggle to see well when playing while the sun is shining on the screen. It's like a gameboy. I do like the small new 3ds but those are hard to come by. I usually only see the new 3ds xl, new 2ds xl or the og 3ds and 3ds xl being sold online.

    I got a "new" Nintendo 3DS XL from someone at my school for only 5$ since it was in cosmetically bad condition and he just wanted to get rid of it. It was originally black, but after replacing the outside top shell, outside bottom shell, and battery cover with red ones. So I basically made my own "custom" "new" Nintendo 3DS XL that is red on the exterior and black on the interior. I also had to replace the micro SD card slot and speakers due to the micro SD card slot being dented down and the speakers being busted, but it wasn't difficult to do the repairs and I spent 30$ to buy the parts. So I basically bought it for just 35$ after I repaired it, which was less than a quarter than what those go for on eBay! Probably one of my best purchases ever and I'm very happy with it!

    The 3DS system that I have is a 2DS that I got right after it first launched. My favorite 3DS games are Scribblenauts Unlimited, Ocarina of Time 3D, Majora's Mask 3D, and Pokemon Omega Ruby.
