Gaming in Three Dimensions?? - The Nintendo 3DS 

You are like a mix between Scott the Woz and DankPods. And I love it!

RIP E-shop, you were too good for this world.

I actually really like the small form factor of the normal new 3ds. I always appreciate the extra size of the XL model but I've also never had any issues with the regular screens. But the normal sized 3ds has even better portability from its weight and size making it very easy to slip into your pocket. Also unrelated but I have two new 3ds XLs and both of them are dual IPS. Also, I'm glad you mentioned modding the 3ds in your video 👍

The 2DS also surprised me and quickly became one of my favorites handhelds. Who knew a cheese wedge could feel so good to hold 😂 Great video, Thanks for sharing!

Amazing content. I tried to repair a 2ds once because my cousin jammed a cartridge in backwards. But the cartridge slot is soldered to the board. And as I came to know, I really suck at soldering. So I bought a new motherboard in the mail. The camera broke of in shipping. As you know, the camera is required to boot. I’m great at this! 👍

Love that you showed your original from when you first had it wow. That is amazing nice lengthy video about some 3ds history I love it!!!

The (new) 3DS is still my “desert island” system that if I were limited to one console for the rest of my life it’d be it. Too many good games, both original and back catalogues of VC and DS games. First thing I bought after getting a job out of college was the Dragon Quest n2DS because having a DQ 3DS had been a dream for a long while.

hold on i was watching this in the background, i thought this had way more views! keep on grinding!

9:12 watching this on my 3ds just to prove you wrong

I heard about the 3ds store about to discontinue so i came to RU-vid. Very well made video and i hope to see more. I also hope your channel will pop off soon

i had so much fun watching this

I can't believe you have 718 subs, I would've thought you had more. You do a great job with your work

Very good video mate

Absolutely great video! I recently just bought a North American “New” Nintendo 3DS XL Hylian edition, and it happens to have both IPS screens. I ended up getting rid of my disservice and home brewed it; i really want to add the SM64 remake on there too!

I get exactly what you mean about the 3ds XL not feeling as good as the original. I also have a love for the original 3ds, there's a premium and solid feel to it with the shiny finish and the touches like the 3d indicatior glowing, none of the other models felt like that afterwards. The 3ds XL in comparison feels cheaper with the finish on the plastic and less printing on the surface of the plastic, being embossed into it instead. I also never liked the way the top and bottom of the console chamfered so much at the edge, I thought it looked ugly. I much prefer the new 3ds XL design

im getting into 3ds (as it was my first gaming console) and im ordering a 2ds xl soon and i wanna say THANK YOU FOR SAYING MARIO 3D LAN IS UNDERATED!!!! IM NOT THE ONLY ONE! anyway i loved this vid please keep it up my friend

This video was amazing. Trust me you'll be at the top end of 2023

super underrated

When the new 2ds came out I was convinced it was some sort of nintendo smartphone

man i wish i never lost my ds lite, i had that same one that you have. got it when i was 5 or 6 and it was my first gaming system ever.

2:03 i literally just bought a dsi xl for $40 becuase i loved the dual IPS screens 😄 I also ugraded from my old 3ds xl to a "New" Pearl White 3ds XL

I need one of these!

Underrated

oh wow, this was filmed on my b-day :D (4th of jan)

I actually like the 3d, i feel it makes the games look better.

Such an entertaining watch. I think I'm going to grab a cheap dsi and an SD card and maybe later a ps vita

You know hearing someone say the DSi had a better camera just feels great because thats what I thought.

29:15 you could still get dlc but not worth the price or just pirate the gold edition, in my 2ds it was preinstalled

i have not a sad xl og and my xl has some plate off but it works

I vividly remember trying to snip off the little nibbet on the New Super Mario Bros 2 3DS cartridge and tried to stick it into my DS Lite. Ahh, good times. 🤣 I also had a translucent red 2ds, I think it costed about $120 when I got it back in 2013. I bought it since my DS Lite broke because of the hinge, so I decided to get one that didn't fold lol.

What happens when u take Scott and DankPods: But fr good content ❤❤

The 3DS was my first ever handheld. I used all the money in my bank account to buy a secondhand og aqua blue 3DS back when I was like… 14? I think?. I now have a new 3DS and a new 2ds xl (both of which I bought secondhand off eBay) and i will say, the 2ds is really nice to hold. It has a good screen size. The top screen is a lil thin and wobbly and makes me nervous but the bigger screens are so nice. But my new 3DS is probably my favourite. I made custom skins for it and the 3D is so much nicer to use (i still dont use it that much but occasionally ill put it on to help with depth perception, esp in top-down games), and the design feels sleek. Overall, i love this lil system. I wish I’d gotten into it sooner coz I didn’t really like the games I had for it when I first got it so I didn’t play it very often. I wish the switch had download play and streetpass. I miss those features so much

In 2016 the day before my 6th birthday my parents bought the exact same blue translucent 2ds as yours for like 100€ and i started playing it again while im waiting for my New Nintendo 3ds to arrive

I currently have a 2DS but I always wanted the smaller New 3DS just for easier portability and a lower chance of scratches on the screen since you fan close it, if I maybe get one on christmas I will give my little brother my 2DS.

N3ds standard with dual IPS is the ultimate.

i own two new 3ds xl and one new 2ds xl and thinking of getting a new 3ds. would u recommend it, if i am already used to the bigger screen? i ve heard the resulution is better on the smaller model tho.. which one do you play the most? great video btw ❤️

My 3DS gets played daily, it's just a great system to collect for!

Gamer time

I still remember when back in 2017 my dad for Christmas gifted me a New Nintendo 3DS XL SNES Special edition, i was 8 at the time. I still use it and i kept it in pristine condition but i still haven't modded it because i am scared of bricking the software

Great video, but wow your room is dusty! I could see dust particles floating in the air lol

13:17 funny you sat that😄 I literally made a 3ds theme with that song playing. I can share it if you like

I kept hearing you say “what a nugget” my thoughts exactly “he’s gotta be a Aussie bloke” and I was right! Where are you from? Down in the great down under!

do the Wii's and Switches next

Which one do you prefer? normal size or xl? I having a difficulty to decide whether to get normal new 3ds or new 3ds xl.

you don’t have to buy the AR Cards, because nintendo offers you a free PDF file with all the ARCards

Will modding your 3ds cause issues with things previously on the SD card such as DLC or saved data DLC like bookmarks in Fire Emblem Revelations? I'm nervous about doing it. I also want to have the instant 300 tokens because I hate to shake my 3ds for days just to play 2 minutes of that StreetPass fishing game in the Plaza which is also basically a DLC.

Had the 2ds so I only got to experience virginity and not touching grass in 2 dimensions.

i have a dsi xl but lost the power supply :(

Really good and entertaining video! The last year up to now I kinda were reliving my childhood (dreams) of handhelds (even writing this from a steam deck in bed) aquirei n g a v i ta and later on a new3ds, after my GF "infected" me with her new3ds XL :D I lucked out and unknowingly to the seller and me I got a dual IPS model, still so happy about that, felt like winning the lottery. I think that a h o m e bre we d n e w 3ds is still amongst (AMOGUS) the best handhelds ever made

Where did you bought the AR cards from?

When I Gameboyed and Dual Screened

i think they like the 2ds.

13:33 I'm sorry to tell you but I got a best time of 5 seconds

Huh another person who mangled the home button by pressing it with the stylus

You can get Pictochat if you mod your 3DS

good video man pls replace ur screen protector tho 😭

"The dsi is an absolute upgrade over the 3ds" proceeds to list things from the 3ds and dsi

do they play videogames tho

I get so triggered by dusty eletronics.

Looking for the comment about the broken hinge......

I can fix that 3ds xl

Wow 45 minutes

PLEASE CLEAN AT LEAST THE SCREEN BEFORE SHOWING THEM 😳😳😳😳

Nintendo made one of the best and most usable version of 3d with the new 3ds line. And basically nobody cared. A real shame.
