I’d argue that the backwards compatibility between the 3ds and ds makes the 3ds just as good as the DS if you’re counting ds games. Though if we’re talking how good the games are of each generation instead of how useful and fun each console is with all available means of play, it might be a different story.
I actually never had one while it was “recent” (I skipped from the ds to the switch) but I’ve since bought a refurbished one and loaded custom firmware (very simple compared to other consoles) and played some of the top rated games and a few niche ones. I fell in love, and I use it for emulation of other Nintendo consoles up to N64 and all handheld consoles. I’m even working on a full living pokedex using only a 3ds and a switch, which is completely legit using Pokémon bank and Pokémon home and the virtual console, all official Nintendo software.
I’m in my 30’s and I think I agree with this. The amount of bangers for the 3ds is insane, and the virtual console lineups on both the 3ds and wii u were unmatched any time before or after. Even today, the 3ds is the best console to buy used and hack. You have QR-code access to ALL titles, including virtual console titles. It’s a Nintendo emulation powerhouse. Technically you can do all of that on the switch, but it’s much harder to do, much harder to get content, and not nearly as many things are compatible.
I love these regular posts you do. I’m looking for a way to have them show up in my RSS reader, but I can’t seem to find a way. There are RSS feeds per community and per user, but I just want all of the news and nothing else unrelated that happens to be posted by your account. I do want to read nearly everything posted on your account, but this would cause duplicates to show up as you post on different communities.
Is there some way you know of that I can get a de-duplicated feed of all of your news posts in an RSS/atom reader? I’m a bit new to RSS so there may be something I’m missing that’s relatively easy.
