Yeah I got some bids on eBay.
I remember playing a demo of the 3ds back when and it gave me a headache so like the 3d is not important to me

Thanks man but the duder who outbid me apparently couldn't pay the price he put and the seller guy sold it to me at my bid price. So like yeah it turned out cool. I already got a pokemon game (y or x?I got it for helping a friend move in but couldn't play it lol) and was thinking about getting fantasy life or that monster hunter game

Very cool, all I used my wii virtual shop was for buying cool SNES games

Awesome!

their deals are very nintendo though. it's usually 3rd party poo poo that gets good discounts. don't expect steam or even psn level sales. buying physically is usually cheaper (in the us at least)

Awesome!

no pokemon.

I feel bad that I am delivering bad new like this in a cool 3ds thread so I will end by saying that while the emulation support is lacking, the actual 3ds and ds game library totally makes up for it.

No yeah it's cool I'm not a huge pokemon fan anymore and it's nbd about emulating old games. So to turn it around list some cool 3ds games I should look out for.
The 3d stuff gave me headaches when I tried it cause I'm a bitch I guess? So I didn't want it

Oh gently caress I love Phoenix wright. Played the poo poo out of those and the world ends with you back on my big rear end DS.
I have shovel knight on pc but it would own as a handheld. I'm also planning on scoring a wiiu for Christmas this year so I'll prolly hit up monster hunter for that
