Give it to me straight, /v/ Would it be wise to buy a 3ds at this point?
>>
The New 2DS XL is legitimately the best and cheapest entry point

unless you find a New 3DS/XL for cheaper and don't mind the 3D gimmick
>>
I dunno OP, how much of a poorfag are you?
>>
>>382497894
Nintendo says they're going to keep supporting at least until the end of 2018 and its collection of games is already pretty good.

Either get a 3DS cheap or wait for the 2DS XL
>>
yeah why not, only costs about £100.

3ds is a great console. OOT, MM, Mario 3D Land, Monster Hunter, Pokemon games are all great
>>
>>382498124
absolutely this

Are you going to hack it? If yes, go ahead.

no

>>382497894
New 2DS XL is PROBABLY a better idea at this point.

Dunno why they released New 3DS so fucking early, but here we are a few years later.
>>
>>382498275
So much shit games, holy fuck
>>
>>382497894
If you find a good deal.
>>
>>382498408
so the only difference between new 3ds and new 2ds is that the later one doesn't have 3d then? everything else is the same?
>>
>>382498275
I like 13 games, I love DQ VIII but I would never play the port for 3DS.
>>
>>382498427
but such fucking nice colorful boxarts! holy fuck
>>
If there's still a way to install cfw then yes. It's nice being able to play all my favorite GBA/NES games for free and the 3DS games are just gravy.
>>
Depends of you enjoy the titles but can recomend a 3ds or the 2dsxl. Some great games are the Pokemon collection, Zelda collection, Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, Rune factory 4, Smashbro
>>
>>382498609
yes: 3ds = 2ds, n3ds = n2ds
>>
>>382498924
so is there any games where the 3d is necessary, or at the very least make the game better? or is 3d just a meme?
>>
>>382499149
It just makes you see doubles it's not even 3d.
>>
The 3DS is the best handheld console of all time no irony. Especially if you get a flash cart or hack it.
>>
What firmware does a new New 3DS XL come with?
>>
>>382499149
literally nobody cares about the 3d. it was just a gimmick.

>>
>>382499465
the only game that i've tried was a link between worlds, and the 3d was not good. thx for the tip, i'm not op but i was thinking in updating my og 3dsxl. I'll just get a new 2ds xl
>>
>>382499847
Wait, Superstar Saga is going to be a full retail game? God fucking damn it, I was hoping it would be $10 on the eShop, now it's going to be $40. Fuck that.

>red and morrie playable
>new monsters, new arena content, new items
>no more annoying random encounters
>can "uncensor" the game even though the reason costume changes happened was because ratings got stricter in japan
>can add orchestra soundtrack back

why would you not play the 3DS version? you're a retarded if you dont
>>
>>382499149
it's pretty cool if it works for you (it works for me but not the one other person I've shown it to), but the novelty wears off as soon as you start getting a headache

I don't know of any games that make prominent use of it, and many flat out don't support it
>>
>>382499783
11.3

New 2DS XL will be the first console to ship with 11.4
>>
>>382498609
pretty much

Look at the library. I only got a 3DS for Pokemon. The rest of the library doesn't interest me at all unfortunately. I'm happy I'm at least getting one final pokemon game before the series stops being portable.

>Sonic Boom
>Sonic Lost World
The only good Sonic games on the 3DS are the 3D classics.
>>
>>382500035
It's a full remake. Why would you expect it to be $10? That's like the price they'd make it if it were a port of the original game. Not defending that in the least, but being realistic.
>>
at what other point in time would be better than now?

the 3ds has the best cfw, it still has games coming out for it, and it has a huge backlog

just buy it, fag

>so the only difference between new 3ds and new 2ds is that the later one doesn't have 3d then? everything else is the same?
wrong

it has a worse screen, and the audio is on the bottom of the system
>>
>>382499149
>so is there any games where the 3d is necessary
maybe kid icarus

>or at the very least make the game better?
all of them
>>
>>382504949
on the new 3ds, you have to unscrew the back plate to remove the microSD card. on the N2DS you don't. that alone makes it superior.
>>
>>382499551
>can play all gba, ds, and 3ds games
>perfect emlulation on nes, snes, game boy, and gbc color games

it's pretty awesome once you hack it
>>
>>382497894
Yes, it has a great library.
New 3DS XL is the best model, and some come with IPS screens.
New 2DS XL is second best, although they're all apparently shitty ass TN screens.
O3DS XL is good enough, same screen lotto as the first, but not as good 3D.
O3DS is cheaply made and feels as such, but it gets the job done.
2DS is if you can't afford anything else or are simply too cheap.
>>
>>382503785
sonic booms on 3ds aren't as bad as the wiiu one
>>
>>382505106
true, but 3ds has wireless transfer to pc, so you don't have to take the sd card out often

I love the dust cover over the game card slot. I wish the 2ds had a 3d screen, it would be perfect
>>
>>382505285
>isn't as bad
Yeah, that is comforting. It is terrible compared to the Genesis games.
>>
>>382505196
>O3DS XL is good enough
fuck no, they are cheaply made. first nintendo portable I've ever broken
>>
>>382505414
>RRRRRRRRREEEEEE, IT'S NOT MUH GENESIS SANIC, SO IT SUCKS!!!!!!
>>
>>382505569
I'd like for them to be good games. Generations was alright, but even the previous poster admitted it was a bad game, just less bad than the console version.
>>
No handheld post-gba has had as good a library. Everything is weeb pandering now

I don't mind the weeb shit as long as there is something else for me to actually play but it seems that it's only weeb shit now. Nothing else. I just want a game where there isn't a female in a strange outfit I'm supposed to find attractive.
