JRPGLive – Our Greatest Nintendo 3DS Find of All Time

Video Leave a comment

Ah, the Nintendo 3DS — the magical little clamshell that dared to say, “What if your eyeballs could do squats?” Released in 2011, this handheld wonder came with glasses-free 3D, which was either a mind-blowing leap into the future or a fast track to a mild headache, depending on how steady your hands and how forgiving your optic nerves were. You’d slide that 3D depth slider up just to say you did, marvel at Mario’s floating mustache for ten seconds, then immediately slide it back down and never touch it again. But the real charm wasn’t in the gimmicks — it was in the games, which were so good they made you forget the bottom screen was mostly used to poke at maps like a high-tech pirate.

The 3DS had everything: a weirdly effective StreetPass system that turned walking through malls into RPG side quests, a camera that took grainy 3D selfies (so you could finally see yourself disappointed in depth), and a library bursting with hits — Fire Emblem: Awakening, Pokémon X/Y, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, and enough Monster Hunter to destroy your thumb joints before age 30. The thing looked like a toy, sounded like a toy, but punched like a heavyweight champ in a hardware match. It even had backward compatibility with DS games, because Nintendo is the kind of friend who lets you borrow all their old stuff without even asking. The 3DS wasn’t just a handheld console — it was a pocket-sized party, a nostalgia grenade, and an eye-melting miracle all at once.

Gaming Off the Grid are Back with a Pick Ups Vid!!!!

Collecting physical video games is like being a modern-day archaeologist, except instead of digging up ancient bones, you’re hunting for a slightly cracked copy of Final Fantasy VII with the original manual intact. There’s a unique thrill in scouring flea markets, thrift stores, and that one sketchy dude on Craigslist who insists his garage is “climate controlled.” You lovingly stack cartridges like Tetris blocks and alphabetize jewel cases with the kind of precision normally reserved for heart surgery. And nothing beats the heady rush of peeling off a $1.99 Goodwill sticker to reveal Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance underneath. It’s cardboard crack, and you’re hooked.

But let’s not pretend it’s all glory. Your home slowly morphs into a shrine to formats that time forgot—discs, carts, mini-discs (looking at you, GameCube), and mysterious region-locked plastic rectangles. Your friends may not understand why you needed five different versions of Resident Evil 4, but you do: the PAL edition has a slightly different font and that, my friend, is worth celebrating. You tell yourself you’re preserving history, even as your partner gently asks if the Sega Saturn collection has to live in the kitchen. It does. Because in the kingdom of game collectors, shelf space is sacred, dusting is optional, and joy smells faintly of old instruction manuals and 90s plastic.
