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.
No, but much time must be spent on this knowledge between all these various devices. It’s a waste of time.
I collect games that I’ve never played. You expect me to arrange a means to play over 5000 games to see if they even work?
Fuck, I’m an archiver, not a player.

That’s only a fragment of what I have here, I ain’t got time to play every game I have…
I mean this in a genuine way - I actually don’t expect you to spend your free time on things you don’t have interest in. That would, indeed, be a waste of your time.
Your archival of games is a great effort and a positive thing.
Some folks enjoy gaming, game history, and cultural critique of generational hardware. Those interests/hobbies are also valid. That’s not a waste of their time.
LOL, I didn’t upload those games from my own system!
Most of those games I never even downloaded in the first place, I just found a loophole in the systems out there at the time and tricked the archive to upload stuff from other servers…
