Fucking love the Nintendo 3DS. My favorite console of all time. Comfortable, fantastic games, great range of first party titles that implemented 3-D extremely well, and of course my favorite feature: StreetPass. My god I loved StreetPass. So much fun bringing it anywhere and getting that green flashing light telling you visitors arrived on your 3DS.
I played the hell out of the StreetPass mini games, and also enjoyed some of the implementations in various titles.
A Link Between Worlds probably takes the crown as my favorite game on 3DS. I also installed custom firmware on it, and when I’m not playing SteamDeck, I bust out the 3DS to play old roms. I have so much nostalgia with this portable, my spouse and I would play this all the time when we were dating too. I cherish the 3DS.
Treasure this moment. One of my best gaming memories was moving into a new place with a roommate after being homeless for two weeks. We didn’t have furniture, we just had a frozen pizza, a six pack, and his switch with smash ultimate on it. We played on the half all night. It was a candle in the darkness, knowing that even without much we had a roof over our heads and each other. Just pure relief and joy.
I never experienced homelessness but I was lonely growing up. I remember meeting a new kid at school and and we played Earthbound until 3am on his SNES and fell asleep feeling like I was floating because I found a friend and a cool game.
That said It was also the day I saw Starship Troopers in theaters and saw boobs for the first time so that may have been contributory. All in all though banner day.
