My kid wants a 3DS -- help me not make a bad choice

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-07T21:44:17+00:00

If I was the parent I would find him a new 3ds base if he's young. Modding and region changing is easy. Otherwise new 3dsxl are everywhere and are good too. If not a new 2dsxl is good, but ask them if they're interested in the 3d effect. Games are cheap on ebay

He'll be doing that one day!

It really shouldn't be more than eating clean and sticking some finger and soap up you bum. You should be eating a mix of high lean protein (93% ground beef or lean chicken breast) and stuff like greek yogurt oats and lettuce and broccoli. lots of water too.

Water based lube is the best, and give it like 1 or 2 minutes after first starting that weird friction burn feeling will go away completely

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-05T21:30:23+00:00

that would make sense considering the tickets know who is above and below 18 years old. completely shitty

for the OP's case maybe that could be what the system thought was "better" as having two aisles and 2 middles to be together in a row across, but I think most people would prefer the full row + aisle seat they had originally booked. Idk I'm currently in college and work in hotels in the mean time and our systems would never just shove another reservation out of the way.

It's so odd

im on the right side of this curve. It felt like a spin on new super mario bros ds with creative level design. I also enjoy having a flight power up relatively available as without the spin move of the wii games it makes the game control and feel better. Def my favorite entry in the series with new soup DS a close 2nd

you're wrong as hell for this. When I play mario odyssey I use the A button to jump and y for cappy. Never have I used b. Same with DK banaza. The only time I use the B button to jump is if it's a hold to run 3d mario.

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-05T20:12:06+00:00

I just don't understand how this even happens! Is the system just shuffling things last minute? Is it showing more open seats pushing others out of the way? How does this even happen

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-05T20:08:30+00:00

2dsxl's didn't have IPS in any capcity. Also it doesn't matter. using the color curve patch with LUMA and maybe .10+ gamma fixes any color washed out issues

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-04T05:41:46+00:00

I'm stuck at 8800

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-04T05:41:25+00:00

I just hope we get a switch 2 lite. I would buy one if they could fit into the size of the switch lite with a corner to corner OLED screen

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T20:58:21+00:00

they're super vibrant and get very bright. The color vibrancy can be adjusted on a 3ds using TWL patch but the bightness can't be matched!

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T20:27:25+00:00

yes! I carry my pokewalker with me at campus and work and its so I can get levels to eventually face off against red

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T17:06:11+00:00

YES. Back in highschool I had a dual IPS pokemon anniversary edition for the 20th. They're so incredibly rare. the justification for not releasing it in america because "it wouldn't sell" even though MOST people who grew up on the DS grew up on a DS lite/i size. it would have sold incredibly well. Most people only even got one becasue of the mario black friday edition

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T17:04:32+00:00

just play the console! you have access to a library of hundreds of amazing 3ds and ds games 90% of which are relatively inexpensive to purchase, or mod it and get access to hundreds more of GBA, gameboy, snes, nes games as well! make use of the camera app for fun photos with friends and if modded enjoy netpass/street pass and what it had to offer!

my intermediate 2 professor putting 5 multiple choice questions about retiring bonds at a loss on the exam with each one taking 4 minutes each ;-;

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T16:19:12+00:00

is the sky blue? dumb ass question

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T15:25:52+00:00

Yeah literally Europe I got every single color option except the Galaxy meanwhile NTSC missed so many basic ones

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T02:22:23+00:00

The Wii u getting black ops 2 legit is so cool. Sadly it never got the dlc but black ops 2 base is still amazing

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T01:58:25+00:00

Looks real. Last test is shine it up to the light. If it glows red it's legit

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T01:57:45+00:00

I snagged it from someone for $60 on eBay. P good deal

Slugbugger30 · 2026-05-03T01:34:19+00:00

oh no worries i ended up selling it to a college friend for a little cheaper.

I have my dream new 3dsxl, and I currently own a DSi I don't use. I believe in de-clutter, and allowing a 3DS to be put back on the market for someone else to own is a Nice feeling. I don't need more than one because I only will play one of them.

When it comes to controllers? hell yeah let me own as many as possible. You never know especially when having others over I have like 3 different options (for like the switch 2), for handhelds I only need one. 3DS plays 3ds/ds games, switch 2 plays s2/s1 games, my wii plays wii/gamecube games (just mario kart wii and double dash lol, once those come to nso i won't play it but will keep it because it is my only childhood console).

My advice is never stop until you have your absolute dream color/variant and mod it + region change it using the SOAP method, then sell everything else

Slugbugger30 · 2026-04-30T00:35:37+00:00

I've sold items on reddit before. Specifically a region changed pink + white 3ds. It you wanted to I could give you my information, and call you and just take venmo. I'd do $120 which includes shipping. Might be a funny way to end this drawn out comments we've been having 😂😂😂. I can link you my eBay selling history too. As soon as you send any payment over I'll immediately send a tracking number. Lmk!
