Congratulations on nearly reaching your milestone for the collection! A local store in my area has the fates special edition but, i can't imagine paying that current price for it.
I'm a hard 3DS collector. I only collect 3ds games and started PS5 but that does count as much now. I'm trying to get every varient console, every game varient pretty much anything 3ds related. I love the 3DS, I think that was the console I didnt want Nintendo to move on from. I wish the library was a little bigger (With quality games though)
Love the 3ds, my collection is small but enjoy seeing your collection! I love finding in person also, means a lot more than just buying online. Great video
Absolutely love your channel. We have a lot of similarities. I live in Toronto Canada, and am going for a complete 3ds collection as well. Also heavily collecting the Vita. I also only collect locally. The only game for my collection that I bought online was just a couple days ago I bought a French version of the louvre guide. I also just in the last few weeks found some true holy grails. Being in Canada I found a loose copy of barbie groom and glam on sale. With reselling I got it for a good price. Also just recently got a sealed copy of yokai watch 3 and moco moco friends. I believe I have about 350 NA 3ds games now. Still a bit to go, but I'm looking forward to completing it. Being in Toronto I see quite a bit locally but yes the amount I'm finding of new additions has been slowing down drastically. Gonna have to start traveling more to find them. Again really love your channel and get a collecting push everything I watch you guys. Love it. Thanks both!
I've got 25 3DS games, out of those my favourites are the Fire Emblem Games (Awakening, Shadows, Birthright conquest & revelation as well as warriors), Samus Returns, Project X Zone 1&2 and finally the zelda games (ocarina,majora,link and warrriors). Favorite 3ds version? PAL SNES one. Just wish they didn't have TN screens.
My best friend introduced me to the 3DS in 2016. Her and I would play Animal Crossing New Leaf all the time. She sadly passed away from cancer in 2017. Because of her I love the 3DS so much now. I’ve collected a ton of consoles. I think I have 13 now. Maybe one day I’ll start collecting the games 😅
just found you and i loooove this video, very interesting, the not for resales are so cool and all the deco in your room, gonna propably watch more of your videos :3 Just subscribed
Awesome video. I have the 3ds Luigi edition and 2ds xl teal color. Probably my favorite for 3ds will have to be Paper Mario and Mario Kart 7. Thanks again you guys are awesome
3DS is a good console I grew up with it the switch was already out but still I have good memories playing Tomodachi life, the sims 3, and Super Mario 3-D land.
if money was not the problem I would also be a physical game collector. These days I only buy steam games and once in a while buy a 2tb hard disk for NINTENDO ;)
Its really admirable to try to get a complete set. Also I just found yall and I absolutely find it adorable that its a collecting couple. Im really jealous of those Yokai Watch games. I'm missing only a couple of then but there's no way im getting them ever now lol. Cheers and good luck on this journey I used to buy a 3ds game at a moderate rate but i havent gotten one since the eshop closed. Its such a shame but the prices have got me so cautious of buying for it. I will wait a while longer before I deem it safe for my wallet again lol. I love collecting for the 3ds!
I have about 87 games in my collection. Emulation isn't really recommended either. I had a vital modded and it just sat on my shelf. There is more nostalgia in having physical copies. When I see them kn the shelf it makes me want to play them
man one time i found some dude who managed to get a pile of 3ds games idk how and im still questing for worms open warfare 2 which yall americans can find this under 10 minutes and right now it took me like 3 trips to find that game and still could not find it which is absurd for a game that cost 7 bucks which is the same price as a copy of kirby triple deluxe
Would you two say that the loose one that you find and later upgrade that you later find the majority complete or do you actually find a few empty boxes and manuals? Did that make sense? lol As always, love the video! Love coming along on your gaming journey! So cool that you two share that genuine love for gaming!
I used to have a 3DS and absolutely loved it! Had to sell it for an insurance payment and then everything went up in price :( I watch to remember the good times.
I'm going for the full 721 CIB SNES library with the kicker of I can only get funds by finding / selling free furniture locally. If i sell something I use 50% of that sale to buy SNES as I'll NEVER find boxes/manuals/carts locally there's too many and RARE AF games. Currently at 380cib and pieces of 500 going on since oct 2021 Mostly buying in bulk and keeping what I need and resell the rest to break even or some RARE cases profit. turned my hobby into full time job even. Now I sell games online full time and make youtube videos about the things i buy/sell/find etc THANKS!
ive just starting collecting old consoles and handhelds for their games. im not rich enough to collect their physical games, but i have all of the best handhelds.
I'm new to the Switch and DS/3DS. I prefer the Switch because I can hook it up to my TV and play on the big screen, but the 3DS comes close. I love the variety of special edition handhelds they did for 3DS. I was hoping to like the DS, but agree with you that a lot of the games are subpar.
You can't be a gaming fan or collector if you don't have a story on what you passed on that's now hella expensive. I feel ya😭 Case in point, I've passed over TRU clearances of Spider-Man 32X, Mega Man 5/6. Then there was ignoring Ninja Five-O in my hand (Circuit City). Even had a chance in 19 for Burning Rangers around your Barbie game's price. D-oh!
I thought that Crono in your thumbnail had Mario’s face from Super Mario World. Are people coming out of the woodwork to offer you stuff to help you get closer to completion?
I love the 3DS! Atm I only have 50 physical games on the PAL library and a few digital ones that were grabbed while the Eshop was up but do want to get more out in the wild! Lately I have been feeling eh about collecting in general but the 3DS never fails to put a smile on my face😊
Favorite game is almost impossible to say. I have so many to sift through. Radiant Historia, maybe? Or A Link Between Worlds? Mario Kart 7 is awesome, too.
Honestly, coming from someone that has almost the entire library of GBC, GBA, NDS, and 3DS games on an SD card, I would honestly much rather have the physical versions. Even though I DID start when Nintendo officially stopped the support and shops for the 3DS (to feel morally better about it) I'm still incredibly impressed with the physical library you guys have made. AND you are also doing a huge part in influencing people to collect and trade and prevent E-waste. 🤓 You made a subscriber out of me.
I have a few 3ds xl consoles but there mostly pokemon & mario machines, I should really branch out a bit more. H shop isn't emulation btw its is just digital copy piracy, not even a grey area but its doing more for video game preservation than Nintendo seems to be 😅 love watching your collection grow though!
Always have my eye out for that Barbie game. Since I'm in Canada I have a slightly better chance at finding it. Probably won't. Damn it's expensive though.
I am working on a full vita set I have 299 vita games. I have to do online as I have seen vita games in the wild only once in the last 2 years. For me it’s patience like I had eBay notifications on ar nosurge for over a year before finding a price I could swallow. So it’s still a hunt.
Love your journey, for the Fire Emblem I bought actually ALL the DLC just in case for eshop closed down few months ago, it was pricey yes. But that's a one time thing also for me. For the most favorite 3DS game(s) I would say firstly Super Mario 3D land, when it came out in the beginnings of the 3DS release, I was hooked how Mario moved in a really ashtonishing 3D world, with the 3D effect on! Never saw this ever before, and I was quite excited about it to play this game, and it was also my very first 3DS game. The most hours I spend also on 3DS was Mario Kart the online section of it, spend way too many hours on it. For now, my 3DS is collecting dust, because of the huge backlog I have... My most valuable is the 3DS Fire Emblem console with the sword and the white version of these. Played a lot on these back in the early days. The most enjoyable game I find is a game from the eshop: Zelda Ages and Seasons normally on Gameboy :D Way too much fun with those. Love and greetings from Belgium!
Ive been stuck on trying to complete my pal set i just never come across much now . I am after some usa exclusives but postage always crazy lol . I have the louvre game i glad i got it early has its shooting up in price now lol . I definitely prefer hunting for games in the wild has its more fun but sometimes especially for my arari set i have to go online for American releases . Talking of sets ive been so close to a pal psp set for years i never find them but i enjoy looking .
@JRPGLife it is especially recently when I found some American atari games in a UK video game shop I've been after for years plus they were way under there price :) . I've always hunted for games you would laugh my first game I found in a thrift store in early 2000s was ff8 I had sold my copy not long after for stuff for college so was happy lol
Ok, what will you do when you got the whole set? Why do you need all of these games on the shelf? Will you sell them back on the market? Will you bequeath them to your relatives when you die? What's the point?
Ok! Let's answer these one at a time: When we get the whole set we will celebrate! We don't NEED all of the games on the shelf, we want them. We will not be selling these games, they are ours to keep and play. Our games will likely go to our kids (once we have them lol) once we pass. What's the point? The 3DS collecting journey is a fun activity that my wife can enjoy doing together. Plus, we love playing games on the 3DS so it's a great fit 😀
I got back into 3ds collecting because of you guys so far found some games that I really enjoy. Also I don’t think you guys need the Barbie game to complete your 3ds collection because as you said you wouldn’t play it and it’s just to expensive.
Good luck guys. I know how hard this set was. I would say I would buy these ASAP off eBay Disney Violetta: Barbie: Groom and Glam Pups Puzzler World 2013 50 Classic Games These don’t show up at all. If I see anything I’ll let you know . FIFA 13
Thanks Steve! We made it a hard and fast rule not to buy anything off eBay (we talked about it in the video). For now, we are having fun just hunting for them everywhere 😀
My favorite Nintendo 3DS game is New Super Mario Bros 2, and I think Super Mario 3D Land and maybe Mario Kart 7. Yeah, I don't know. I use an emulator to play those Nintendo 3DS games. I respect Nintendo, but I can't get the console. Cool video! Keep it up!
This weekend I saw Barbie Glam And Groom Pups laying on a yardsale table. I got so excited, I went blind. I quickly looked it up and I thought it said 250.00. I quickly handed the 8.00 which she asked for. Not to be selfess, I bought her other crappy games at 8.00 each. When I got back to my car and my sanity returned, I found out I had the Ds version. So, if you want a cheap look alike I'll sell it to you for 8.00.😂😂😂😂😂
Do you guys only collect ESRB or will you want PEGI too? Cos i'm uk based and have FIFA 13, Pro Evo 2012 and Transformers but they're PEGI. Happy to just send this to you if you pay for postage to US.
If the 3ds wasn’t region locked then I could have gotten you 3 games of the list. I would have sent them a while ago now. Maybe you could ask some store owners you do a lot of business with to keep an eye out for the games you still need. Good luck hunting though and keep on doing what you enjoy
I've heard that 3DS got no region lock. What's the truth? For Switch there's no region lock, BUT the download codes are region specific. So for example Mega Man Legacy Collection got Vol 1 as a physical game card and Vol 2 as a DL code, but that download code is region locked to a specific eShop. That's what I've heard/read.
@@JRPGLife I just googled that and that's right! I found out from Nintendo's own info: DS: "older DS and DS Lite software is region free" and "possible that future DS software will have a region lock". 3DS: region locked. And according to a site (not Nintendo) there's 3 regions - Japan, Europe+Australia & America. Region free DS games will work on all 3DS consoles. Thanks for bringing this topic up to the light and that I had a good reason to investigate this! I wonder why I had the feeling that 3DS games are region free. Maybe I've mixed that up with DS?
@@JRPGLife As someone who collects 3ds consoles and leaves them sealed, this made me remove them. However, the ones Nintendo glued sealed, I'm out of luck. Was curious if it was an common issue with other collectors.
I'll keep my eyes open for your missing games ❤ I never got much into handheld, but I get the mobile attraction to them. More of a couch potato gamer myself 😂
I agree about DS game library/catalogue. Too much garbage and too few great games. And that make me think about this: DS sold better than 3DS (console sales). Why did the better console sell worse? Crazy! 3DS got so many great games! Ocarina & Majora (3D remakes) Metroid 2 (remake) Zelda A Link Between Worlds Super Mario 3D Land Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 And soooo much more! I got a New 3DS XL. Got around 30 games. I'm just trying to buy the juicy little nuggets and not all games ever released. DS got some good/big releases like: Mario Kart DS New Super Mario Bros Maybe a few more, I know there's Sonic Colors and a few more good games. And remember, Nintendo never shut down the eShop! They only removed the possibility to buy games and download free stuff. eShop is still running so you can re-download everything you've bought. I wish they could have waited a few more years! Hope that you will find the missing games! Fingers crossed!
What are your favorite 3DS games? Comment below!
I love all the Fire Emblem games, ocarina of time, smt games.
raidient historia perfect chronology is a top tier game.
Don't forget to pin your own comments to your own videos :)

Bravely Default and Bravely Second. The 3ds has so many amazing jrpgs wish Nintendo ported a lot of these games
It was an honor to help you folks out.
You are the man!
how nice!
Congratulations on nearly reaching your milestone for the collection! A local store in my area has the fates special edition but, i can't imagine paying that current price for it.
It's so pricey!
Your 3DS collection is the thing of DREAMS. Love this!!
Love collecting for the 3DS and DS. By far my favorite handheld.
Yes!
I'm a hard 3DS collector. I only collect 3ds games and started PS5 but that does count as much now. I'm trying to get every varient console, every game varient pretty much anything 3ds related. I love the 3DS, I think that was the console I didnt want Nintendo to move on from. I wish the library was a little bigger (With quality games though)
Very cool 😀

I have about 87 games in my collection. Emulation isn't really recommended either. I had a vital modded and it just sat on my shelf. There is more nostalgia in having physical copies. When I see them kn the shelf it makes me want to play them

It's wild how some common games are so hard to find
My favorite 3DS games are super Mario 3-D land Tomodachi life the Sims three Metroid prime federation force and Mario kart 7
I still hunt online and can still be lots of fun searching, but I agree in person is still best if you are blessed to have good shops near you.
3DS is my favourite handheld by far. Love the dual screens. Spent hours on Animal Crossing, Zelda and Pokemon XY!
i love n3DS i got my first 3DS as a christmas gift and ive always adored it, it used to be my favorite console but switch surpassed it for me
We're going for a full set as well. Loving the videos!
Awesome! Good luck!

I have the 50 classic games factory sealed. I got it at Kmart. Have no idea why I bought it 🤷♂️😂
"i love my wife and she loves me" hell yeah i love to see it :)
What is the next collection you’re gonna focus on when the 3ds is completed
We have some things in mind 🤔
Stay tuned!
Love the 3ds console
Maybe caleb alias phoenixresale sell is copy of the louvre he buy it on one of this travel video???
My favorite Nintendo 3DS game is New Super Mario Bros 2, and I think Super Mario 3D Land and maybe Mario Kart 7. Yeah, I don't know. I use an emulator to play those Nintendo 3DS games. I respect Nintendo, but I can't get the console. Cool video! Keep it up!
Thanks for watching!
Im trying to find good media shelves, what kind are your white ones and the corner shelf?
The white shelves are all billy bookcases from Ikea, but the slim corner one is a discontinued model called the Gnedby 🫤
I am a physical copy collector too
I enjoy all of your videos!
Thanks so much for saying so!
Mind sharing what shelf you used for the 3ds games?
It's a Billy Bookcase 🙂
This weekend I saw Barbie Glam And Groom Pups laying on a yardsale table. I got so excited, I went blind. I quickly looked it up and I thought it said 250.00. I quickly handed the 8.00 which she asked for. Not to be selfess, I bought her other crappy games at 8.00 each. When I got back to my car and my sanity returned, I found out I had the Ds version. So, if you want a cheap look alike I'll sell it to you for 8.00.😂😂😂😂😂
Lol oh no!
I want that xenoblade display so bad!!!
We were so excited to find one!
What 13 games are you missing? I also have some empty cases
We have the link to the list in the video description 😀
Do you guys only collect ESRB or will you want PEGI too? Cos i'm uk based and have FIFA 13, Pro Evo 2012 and Transformers but they're PEGI. Happy to just send this to you if you pay for postage to US.
Thanks for offering, but we are only collecting ESRB 😀
"Human databases?!?!?" - *crowd faints*
Lol
Hey , euro flag represents eur region ergo not part of us set not really important detail but there you go 😀
Haha thanks 😊
I saw a ''auto sync'' box, it doesnt work ?
Not really, in our experience it still needs to be the active app and re-sync the entire library
@@JRPGLife haha okay, tried to help 🙏
Is there a link to your current List of 3ds games your looking for?
In the video description 😊
If the 3ds wasn’t region locked then I could have gotten you 3 games of the list. I would have sent them a while ago now. Maybe you could ask some store owners you do a lot of business with to keep an eye out for the games you still need. Good luck hunting though and keep on doing what you enjoy
Thanks so much! Yeah our local store owners all have our list lol
I've heard that 3DS got no region lock. What's the truth?
For Switch there's no region lock, BUT the download codes are region specific. So for example Mega Man Legacy Collection got Vol 1 as a physical game card and Vol 2 as a DL code, but that download code is region locked to a specific eShop. That's what I've heard/read.
@@cjeelde yeah the 3DS is region locked, unfortunately 😞
@@JRPGLife I just googled that and that's right!
I found out from Nintendo's own info:
DS: "older DS and DS Lite software is region free" and "possible that future DS software will have a region lock".
3DS: region locked. And according to a site (not Nintendo) there's 3 regions - Japan, Europe+Australia & America. Region free DS games will work on all 3DS consoles.
Thanks for bringing this topic up to the light and that I had a good reason to investigate this!
I wonder why I had the feeling that 3DS games are region free. Maybe I've mixed that up with DS?
Have you experienced any battery swelling in any of your consoles or do you remove them?
We have only experienced it on GBA SP models so far, thankfully 😀
PSPs as well.
@@JRPGLife As someone who collects 3ds consoles and leaves them sealed, this made me remove them. However, the ones Nintendo glued sealed, I'm out of luck. Was curious if it was an common issue with other collectors.
I'll keep my eyes open for your missing games ❤ I never got much into handheld, but I get the mobile attraction to them. More of a couch potato gamer myself 😂
We are as well lol, but we love playing handheld games at home 😀
Do you have a list of the 3ds games you want to upgrade from loose to CIB?
Yep! We'll get that list into our video descriptions asap

Very cool
I see mist all the time
I live the snes😂
Does the Louvre game work on a North American 3ds? I would think not no?
The Louvre is actually one of the only 3DS games in existence that works on all 3DS regions 😀
@@JRPGLife wow interesting. Thanks for the info.
do you have the complete 3ds/ds pokemon games set?
Yep 😀
I agree about DS game library/catalogue. Too much garbage and too few great games. And that make me think about this: DS sold better than 3DS (console sales). Why did the better console sell worse? Crazy!
3DS got so many great games!
Ocarina & Majora (3D remakes)
Metroid 2 (remake)
Zelda A Link Between Worlds
Super Mario 3D Land
Mega Man Legacy Collection 1
And soooo much more!
I got a New 3DS XL. Got around 30 games. I'm just trying to buy the juicy little nuggets and not all games ever released.
DS got some good/big releases like:
Mario Kart DS
New Super Mario Bros
Maybe a few more, I know there's Sonic Colors and a few more good games.
And remember, Nintendo never shut down the eShop! They only removed the possibility to buy games and download free stuff. eShop is still running so you can re-download everything you've bought.
I wish they could have waited a few more years!
Hope that you will find the missing games! Fingers crossed!
I live in Phoenix Arizona and I would love too run into you two at a convenient or game store love the vids guys 👍
We will be at GameOn this year, come say hi! 😀
I’m guessing you guys got all 13 already?
Nope! Still on the hunt 😀
would you trade saturn games if I have em?! lol
Lol we currently don't have any Saturn games for trade, otherwise yeah! 😀
