The 3DS is unironically one of the few consoles I wish I actually had. Why? It's just feels wrong to emulate, same with the Wii U and to a lesser extent, the Wii (unless you have one of those fancy pc-compatible sensor bars). The hardware is too unique and something gets lost when you try to emulate it.
I can recommend buying a used one, they go between 50€-100€. And then just homebrew it. :)
Maybe the price has gone down in the US, but unfortunately the last I checked they were a bit more expensive in the US if you wanted one in decent condition.
Yeah I bought a used one earlier this month and it was $144. It did come with Luma already installed which was nice
For that price, I'm guessing that was a Japanese 3DS that someone modded and re sold in the US?
Yeah I believe so, at this point I don't think it matters since homebrewing it will get around region locking and the eShop is dead
Oh I didn't mention this is in Austria/Germany. Sucks that they are more expensive in the US :(
I got this one for I think 70€ and it's even the XL version.
Cute af though I definitely think it's gotta go the other way around!
I was also thinking about that but the only time that you really see them is when you open and close the device. And then it's angled in the right direction.
I sill use my 3ds. Just don’t let something horrible happen to it, and she can give it to her kid.
Still using my DS Lite.
Yep, still got that baby too. It’s the only way to play my GBA games since I can’t find my (snes-themed) GBA.
Looks fantastic
Thanks! :)
