The Life and Times of the Nintendo 3DS - AntDude

Bold of you to assume the 3DS will ever die. I’ll have you know mine has full battery.

The 3DS went from a console that I didn't give much of a damn about, to a console I cherished up until the Switch, probably from Dark Moon alone!

One thing that most people dont realize is that you can basically play all the pokemon series prior to switch on the 3ds, and almost all dragonquest entries published both on ds and 3ds.

So many things were on the 3DS that should be on Switch. Folders, themes, badges, activity log, streetpass, etc.

I love how his last point is basicaly "the switch has a crappy UI' which cannot be more true

Didn’t even talk about the 3Ds home screen themes (and lack of them on the switch)

Rest in piece Mario & Luigi rpg franchise...

Now that the 3DS is officially discontinued, I have to say, I LOVED the DS and 3DS series. They carried me through middle and high school and I will never forget the fun I had with them. I will never, ever stop loving this generation of handhelds. No matter what. It makes me so nostalgic and said that those easier days are over, as well as MANY amazing games no longer able to be legally experienced. You were good, 3DS. Real good.

Miitopia became one of my favorite 3DS RPGs. It’s not good in gameplay, but any game that lets you have Luigi and Iron Man fighting Spongebob is a good one to me.

The 3DS is obviously the best handheld ever because it has the most Kirby games out of every handheld, and that’s the only thing that matters.

No no no, I LOVED the activity log. My favorite part, I also loved the step counter. The 3ds helped me keep my sanity underway on a sub.

If I had a dollar every time he said "hidden gem" i could feed my family at cracker barrel

I would love it if Nintendo was to add a proper Activity Log, Mii Plaza and themes to the Switch, they made my 3DS feel so much more personal

10:33 the detail of the 3DS activity log is something I LOVE about it. It's so interesting to see what games I played on what days and when with all of those stats. I wish every console did that.

Dude. Rhythm Thief and the Emperor's Treasure needs some more love. Seriously, that game was my JAM when I was younger.

OMG I unironically want folders for the switch they'd be so helpful.

The 3ds is a lot like the original gameboy, it was innovative and help shaped Nintendo to what it is today, and they both live for eons.

Coming back here after the 3DS ceases production. What a phenomenal system. The sheer quality and quantity of its exclusives is legitimately mind-blowing.

I find it amazing that the 3DS is still one of the best handheld consoles Nintendo has ever made. Not only did I really like the backwards compatibility, but the many games that I owned and had a lot of fun with. Super Mario 3D Land, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, Super Street Fighter IV 3D edition, Super Smash Bros. For 3DS, Legend of Zelda: Link Between Worlds, Resident Evil: Revelations, Fire Emblem Awakening, Mario Kart 7, THE MII PLAZA, the Ace Attorney games... I'M NOT EVEN DONE with most of my games and I can't wait to get back into them and collect even more.
