The good old days when Nintendo was still good... Have nothing but good memories of my DS. I still have it, it's just that right shoulder doesn't work anymore and the battery barely hold half an hour. Possibly easily fixable but meh, I already played the crap out of it. 3DS was such a disappointment. Not that it's a bad console (although the 3D gimmick is ridiculously terrible) or the library is bad, no, plenty of good stuff in there, but it really pales in comparison.
Well, definitely you throw out some unpopular opinions mate 😅
I don't think Nintendo is not good anymore, so many of us think that, and I agree the DS being superior, but the 3DS wasn't a disappointment, indeed without it maybe Nintendo would have been the new SEGA lol.
The 3D gimmick was just that, a gimmick, nothing revolutionary but at least you could turn it off, and when you were bored turning it on was an option as well, without considering the actual titles that use it very well and you feel comfortable having it always ON with those.
