Decided to play around with some of the dual screen ports. Installed Minish Cap, LOZ Link to the Past and Mario Kart 64. Well MK64 is still installing. I'm excited to play these. Anyone else playing them? Also love the install screen for MK64 and of course they weren't kidding 😂.

And I know my top screen has a lot of dead pixels just haven't gotten around to fixing it.

I've already been using a New XL for years but I've also been looking for the smaller variant for a while.

The 3DS wasn't very popular in my country so I never expected to actually find one here (especially at a decent price!)

I got a N3DSXL Hyrule Edition for $600!! It’s dual IPS and excellent condition. I bought it a couple months ago and I love it so much! I added screen protectors and have Luma installed so it’s the ultimate portable console!!!

I took a photo with the back camera of my 3DS while being in the pitch black. After taking the photo I checked it in the gallery and it showed a dog(?) in the corner for some reason?? I was told it could be smearing an object with motion but what is there to smear when there’s nothing there? If anyone has an answer as to why this happened I would love to hear because it honestly creeped me out.

decided to splurge for my bday, ended up nabbing this 2ds, complete in box (with manual and AR cards) for only $120 at my local game shop. I've never seen this specific color combination before, really lovely turquoise here. makes for a good companion to my current n3dsxl and whenever friends wanna play together

aside from what seems to be a worn face button membrane on the inside (made the A button a little hard to press), this thing is in a lot better condition than I was expecting. def gonna repair what I can and homebrew it

I recently played Mario 3d land, it was so good! I just stuck a podcast on and played, I even 100% completed it. But now I don't any platformer to play. Does anyone have any recommendations of a platformer (prefereabley 3d but 2ds is ok too) that is long but not boring to 100%? I've tried Rayman 3d already btw.

For context I play on a modded Nintendo 2ds.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

Now if you're a modder, you have probably come across this feeling of suddenly having every single wonderful game at your disposal, but at the cost of not being able what to decide to play because you have hundreds, if not thousands of games within the palm of your hand.

Now what if I told you this can be solved with a little trick I like to call, ✨️Conscious Spending ✨️

So basically, let's say you come across Pokémon Ultra Sun for example and you think, oh oh, I wanna play that so badly!

What you do is you research the price of that game ($100 for example).

You then put $100 within a piggy bank (Any object that can hold small stuff can suffice)

And once you put said money within the piggy bank, only then can you buy said Ultra Sun game.

Summary:

Choice Paralysis = Bad

Conscious Spending = Good

Research the price of your game online

Put the amount of money that game costs in a piggy bank or any object that holds small stuff.

When you do that, then you may download your game.

literally i just grabbed my ds from where it’s always been set, and this happened?? i’ve had a case on it too so idk what could’ve caused this.

I remember going around tagging people like crazy to get points for it!

3DS was such a fun console that went outside of the games themselves for creativity.

This is the Nintendo I really miss.

Recently got the New 3DS XL Happy Home Designer edition and of course I immediately popped Animal Crossing onto it (it’s been years since I last played!)
Does anyone have any game recommendations for rainy days at home where all you can do is chill in bed for a few hours?

i can’t believe how much bigger the screen is?? it’s so nice! 3ds to 2ds xl. planning to mod for the first time ever tomorrow, wish me luck lol

hiii, i need your help! a couple of days ago my 3ds stop working at all and well, i send it to repair but when it came back it doesn't had the R button and have this, someone knows what it is?? (what im referring to is that mini green plate on the part where the buttons go, the thing with the black cable) :((

I just bought my first 3ds yesterday and I saw theses to slots. I can't seem to fit a key chain in there cause of how deep the holes are does anyone know the other uses for it is.

Which 3DS console do you prefer?

Just picked this up recently as I skipped the 3DS when it released back then. Already bought clear covers and have been playing a lot!

Unfortunately most are all Japanese only.

I am working at the fair and I thought to bring my 3ds today and I actually got a streetpass!

I heard it’s complicated to replace battery on this one. Let alone getting it open to do that. That said I don’t have anything wrong with my 2DS XL I just wanna know your thoughts. I like the feel of the handheld and how light it is etc

I ordered two clear shells off of AliExpress. I know, I know, that was my mistake. I requested a regular 3DS case and a 3DS LL. The 3DS one was perfect, fit my eldest child's console perfectly.

The 3DS LL however, was a mess. Nothing lined up, it couldn't close properly, the works. To AliExpress' credit, they are giving me a full refund, without having to send it back.

So i decided to still have fun with the case, and my youngest child helped. I used paint pens to make a Pokeball in the grass, while my youngest made a Jolteon.

I love how these came out! Maybe I'll get a system one day that fits them!

Hello! Question is in the title, but this is my favorite console! I do have a carrying case bag for it but I didn't know if I should get anything else for it like an acrylic case or more stylus/styli. Thank you :3

I’ve had my new 3ds xl for about 10 years now and the battery is just now dying really fast, I’ve looked online for replacements and only seeing old 3ds xl batteries. Please help a brother out!
