@KiwiFarmsArkavel at age 5 is crazy you’re so lucky. I think I got mine when I was 9?? Me and my mom were in the store and she said I could pick something under like $50 as a bday present, and I was contemplating between a nerf gun and the 2DS. They also had some promo where you got an additional free game with the 2DS too, so I got Super Mario World

that's odd cause 2 days after I got my 3DS I gotten about 3 games, Om Nom 3 In One (lowk forgot the name of it), Super Mario 64 DS (was banned in a country because of a gambling mode in it), and The Smurfs (lots of game modes)

?

Omg the 3ds is peak I still got some of the game cards just not the ds anymore

we had a big [censored] red ds xl from a used game store, i played a shitty [censored] ubisoft fashion design game with horrible graphics even for 20 years ago, or maybe the screen wasnt working well, idk. we have a 20+ year old ds, its black, idk where it is but that thing is ancient but still works better than my switch i got back in 2024, was probably a few years old when i got it tbh

DS and DSIs (idk about 3ds bc i never had one) are basically indestructible if you arent activliy tryna distroy it, they cant make anything that lasts longer than a year or two with regular use and it pmo. they should really just go back to the drawing board and make modern DSIs instead of this crap

@Yanderemenhera totally agree. They were like bricks. Literally.

@ilovecats2018 istg we would accedentaly drop 'em and they'd come out working perfectly fine. drop a switch 2 feet? its gone forever

@ilovecats2018 the DS/DSI were the nokia's of Nintendo istg
