Nintendo 3DS - General Discussion

[hatok 6,413]

There have been a couple accidental leaks of a GBA Virtual Console, so I'd imagien it'll come eventually.

Warning though, it'll probably cost 10 bucks per game

[LordOfTheCastle 92]

Why can't they make the Ambassador games like... half off for ambassadors? Seriously. It's really, really stupid that I'm locked out from all games past the game boy color just because I bought my 3DS at a different time. I think over a year is long enough to wait to give everyone else a chance to play those games.

 

EDIT: I sound so grumpy in this post... haha

They have a few released in the eShop now, like Super Mario Bros., so eventually they should have them all for sale in the eShop.

Because that would be a lame present?

They don't OWE you anything. If you want to play GBA games, there are plenty of other ways to do that

I didn't say they owed me anything. It's in the best interest of both me and Nintendo, for them to get untold mountains of money from making the gba games public, and for me to not have to buy an old gba or DS on eBay or some pawn shop for like $30-50.Just sayin'.

So what's your favorite version of the DS? the original Phat DS, DS Light, Nintendo DSi, Nintendo DSi XL, Nintendo 3DS, or the Nintendo 3DS XL? For me, i would have to say the DS Lite and the 3DS. Those are my favorite versions of the DS  in the DS series.

Man, I still remember getting the original DS...time flies Dx But I'd have to say DS Lite, it was more convenient.

[Khrulesbbs 574]

3dsxl

[khoathkeeper13 429]

The 3DS is like the DS but a million times better! (It has KH3D, 3D, KH3D, analog stick, KH3D...)

[Weedanort 8,786]

DSi

 

It's the only one I ever got

[King Riku 2,063]

The original 3DS

[Silvia Kuroi 1,480]

The DS Lite was my first, and I enjoyed it greatly. But I like the 3DS better, for the obvious reasons.

[VisitJoan 2,713]

I'm pretty sure the 3DS is an entirely different console. Anyway, I have to go with the DS lite. I do remember when the DSi came out, and thinking what a waste of money it was.

[dusk 910]

3DS, it can play DS games and I don't need bigger screen than that. No need to have other DSs when I have that

[VanitasisKirby 1,227]

The original 3DS.

It can play DS games, I can download the games from the e-Shop, and it has all the Mii things.  

It's good in my opinion. 

 

The DSi and DS aren't so bad, either. I like them.

[_The Door To Light_ 1,507]

The DS Lite.

The 3DS comes at a close second. Thankfully you can turn off the 3D option. o_e 

[riku13 148]

3ds the xl just doesn't do it for me besides for me the 3ds looks better.

[WakelessDream 2,278]

DS lite because the r4 does wonders

[GN_Otaku 70]

I have small scratches, any way to get rid of them?

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

So I've had this 3DS for like....ummmm.....two years. I got it last year for my birthday. It no longer has warranty. It press the button to turn it on and the blue light comes on. The screen stays black...and suddenly a big POP sound comes and the 3DS went off. I can't turn it on. I did some research and actually this is a common problem.

-I did drop it last night as it was on the charger

-It cut itself off two nights ago because of its battery dying

-I did charge the night before last

-Someone said it might have to do something with the fuses.

-We have no money right now

-It is OUT OF WARRANTY. MEANING I CAN'T SEND IT UP TO THE NINTENDO COMPANY AND GET IT BACK FOR FREE

 

If you have any ideas how to help me, thanks.

 

P.S: SODOM HAS NO IDEA WHERE TO PUT THIS TOPIC.

If it's a common problem, maybe research a little more or ask around to see what other people did to fix it. If you've already done that, that's all I can think of, sorry.

[The_eternal_nothing 586]

if it works while its on the charger then its a fried circit

[Silvia Kuroi 1,480]

It does sound, from what you said, to be a blown-out fuse. Probably from the dropping, to the usage and re-charging did something, and blew out a fuse which might have short-circuited the 3DS.

 

Now, I'm not an expert on the 3DS (I apologize, since I can't really give out much advice) but perhaps you could replace the battery? I understand, that you have a tighter wallet, but a new battery might help. Of course, if it's a short-circuit, I don't know how much a battery replacement might help. Try talking to electronic repair and video game shops. Sometimes they might give out a proper answer.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

Okay, I'll look into that Silver. Thanks.

[Elijah Gravenhorst 480]

It's a conspiracy. Nintendo wants you to get a 3ds xl. Same thing happened with the original ps2 when the slim came out. It's all about politics.
