      The problem is that they saw how much money the other consoles were making from it and decided to do it themselves but then they include games in the virtual console that not many people even want to play. My son is the only one who actually plays online with others and the subscription I buy is usually only so I can trade pokemon or every so often try my team out on another player.

      I feel like Nintendo purposefully didn't include download play on the switch just so people had to buy the game to play with friends, but then again you can connect 8 controllers to the console, but having extra controllers costs money, so overall, Nintendo is greedy for money

    I feel like the 3ds was the last console where Nintendo really cared about the consumers instead of trying to compete with console and pc gaming. Things like download play, street pass, themes, reverse compatibility, virtual consoles, and fun apps, just make it in my opinion the best hand held of all time.

      @Brotatochip6507 2 ปีที่แล้ว +830

      @@amsyarzero Streetpass is a built in social-feature on all 3DS systems that allows two or more 3DS players to exchange game data and some personal info (dogs or cats, your birthday, your hobby, your dream, etc.).
      What happens when you get a streetpass tag? The mii of the other person shares some info with you and can help you play various games. I.e. in tomodachi life, you can connect with other islands and have other miis camp on your island. In animal crossing, you can visit other peoples’ houses.
      How to streetpass? Put your 3DS in sleep mode and leave it in your backpack/pocket/purse wherever you go. If you see a flashing green light, you got tagged!
      Why is StreetPass the most amazing thing ever? People from all over the world can visit your plaza. The “goal” is arguably trying to get tagged by as many people as you can from different parts of the world.
      Why does the switch need it? I have met and still am really good friends with multiple people from my school a few years ago who used the streetpass feature. Streetpass would have been the perfect way to find out who has a switch nearby, go talk to them, play some games together, and BAM you’re not a loser anymore cause you’ve just made a friend.

    I also really liked that you didn’t have to own a game to play with your friends. For example Mario kart 7 allowed you to play a limited version of the game as long as someone around you owned the game. I really loved this feature because instead of buying multiple games we could just buy 1 and play together.

      The obsession with a browser is purely because “they had it before!” like maybe you guys used it back on the Wii and DS days when it was a fairly new thing and smartphones weren’t around but the amount of people who used it on the slow ass 3DS and Wii U compared to their phone had to have been microscopic. Wii U and 3DS were hacked through a web exploit back in the day; hell PS3 and PSP were as well I believe. Web browsers introduce too many vulnerabilities and not enough benefit to be worth including. Even the PS5 doesn’t have one.
      I agree with the complaints about themes and Virtual Console and stuff but you guys are really reaching with this complaint

      I am already clumsy and I've dropped my 3ds many times and I think the clamshell design has saved it these past 10 years.
      The old version of the 2ds is supposed to be a cheaper version I get it but removing the ability to close the system to preserve the screen was a really bad decision from Nintendo.
      Problem is now my 3ds won't charge anymore and since last year they stopped repairs for the old model which I have.
      I will look and try to find repair shops but since the original system is real old it might be harder now.

      I'm not saying that what he said was incorrect, or that the switch is better than the 3DS. But he used a switch lite, not a switch. It basically removes the entire 'switch' hybrid appeal of the original switch that allows home/portable use.
      I'd argue that the switch lite was a console released for Nintendo new-timers, a way to 'ease' consumers to the atmosphere, especially with it being a $100 cheaper than the original.

No themes, no BGM, lack of digital socialising, paid online????, no fun when it comes to custom stuff (aka Homebrew and the Homebrew community), too expensive, games too expensive + not as fun (they also lack personality) + random re releases of old games sold for more money???

      Yeah it doesn't have one and the 3ds does as well as themes and virtual console as well as access to over 3000 titles.

      @@Hugeman88 Depends on who you ask. On the Switch (or any other entertainment device/system)? No, not for the mainstream market at least for right now. Like VR, it's a nice gimmick and all, but currently best left to 3D movies. Come back when tech is more evolved and more accepted.
      For the industry, scientific community and medicine? Yes, because they're already used there. Great for looking "into" a person without needing to cut anything. Nice way to design vehicles/buildings/etc.

    Didn’t the 3D screen give everyone migraines so they ended up not using it anyway? 😂

      Later 3DS games didn’t even have it. Hell didn’t Gen 7 Pokémon only allow it on the new 3DS? Might’ve been another game
      Nintendo knew it was underused
