So I am trying to pick up a split new system 3DS, preferably the New 3DS but getting the flip screen hardware is proving trickier than I imagined...
I missed this system since 2011 and just wanted to start a discussion on it specifically in reference to both the original DS and also the Vita plus the rise of smartphones. These obviously altered the handheld landscape considerably since 2008 to the point that it is unrecognizable to the era of the original DS.
I guess one thing that sort of goes unmentioned to the success of the Switch is that Nintendo used to have two hardware streams, home then handheld, and these have been cannibalized to create the hybrid of the Switch.
- Gameboy & NES-SNES era
- Gameboy Advance & Gamecube era
- Nintendo DS & Wii-Wii U era
- Nintendo 3DS & Wii U-Switch era
Anyway as someone new to the system that has been around since 2011 it could be considered retro as it is almost two generations old by certain indicators.
Here is a list of top 50
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow Mirror of Fate did not make the top 50 though, still have not played that.
Looking for impressions and appraisals of the system now time has passed and any hidden gems.
