I bought a 3DS XL sometimes last year. It was under $200.

After seeing the surge in demand, I feel lucky that I bought it when I did. I also decided to take it out and play some animal crossing new leaf for the first time and I’m really enjoying it.

I sometimes wonder if I should have bought the “new” variant back then, but they were much more expensive and I’m still not sure if the performance improvements would have been worth it.

I’m basically just using not for ds and 3ds games, so, I’m guessing the power difference would not really matter.

      O Arbiter of what is appropriate to know, what shall be deemed appropriate for these people to know?

      Tell us what is appropriate to know, for clearly we are misguided and you are the last Arbiter of appropriate knowledge!

          Seeing as how you’re some sort of hardware tech, I bet the money I splash out on clothes would leave you bewildered. Likewise, sure, I use Linux, but only cause I want something reliable. I don’t fuck with it. I spend my money looking how I want to look.

          Fuckin’ let people enjoy the things they enjoy. :/

      You know shit about computers? Fuckin’ nerd. That’s an obsession.

      You know what a hobby is? A hobby is what I like and enjoy, not you. Yours are obsessions, mine are hobbies.
