The 3DS is a perfect handheld. A sequel to the DS who’s game library, fun built-in games and the 3D slider were a perfect fit for the successor to the DS
Really great video. The 3DS is my favorite console and I think it might have the best first party lineup of any Nintendo console. The only thing I would change about this video, would be adding Warioware Gold. Since you included Smash, and Yoshi games which are Mario adjacent, I would have added Warioware Gold. Even a few of the microgames you can play as Mario. Either way I subscribed and I hope to see more 3DS content from you in the future!
it's so crazy how insanely late into the 3DS's lifetime they were still releasing games, like the switch had already been out for ONE year when they released Captain Toad (obviously it was just a port but still). And Bowser Inside story TWO whole years after the release of the switch, crazy imo and probably led to the downfall of Alphadream.
Mario 3D Land, and Mario Kart 7 was the first 2 Mario games I played on the 3DS. Ah the memories! Hard to believe its already been about 10 years now! ❤
Awesome video man! There are sooo many mario games on 3ds godamnn. Maybe you can consider making a video on pokemon Ultra sun and Ultra Moon someday? They’re pretty good games and just suffer from being released only 1 year after the originals. Perhaps they should’ve waited a bit longer but they had a good amount of content
I never owned a 3ds during it's life, I only played 3d land and a little bit of new leaf by borrowing my Mom's 3ds back in the day. I bought one last month and have been having lots of fun. I wanted it mainly for SMT games, but there is so much more on this device, and I can revisit my childhood with DS games. The 3ds has so much you can do with it, especially if you hack it, like playing Virtual Boy games on an emulator with the 3d effect. This platform has so much to offer, I wish I had gotten one during it's life.
Make sure you get one of the mods for Majora's Mask downloaded if you choose to play that Zelda game on the system. The port broke some parts of the game and modders took what was good about the remaster and brought back the good things that were changed to be worse (ice arrows work everywhere again, not only where water sparkles, day/night cycle is returned to its original length of real world time since the port made in-game days pass quicker, Deku Link's spin attack can instantly gain momentum again to help with water skipping, bosses have been returned to their original state and not just the "hit big eye" versions the remaster turned them into, etc). It also added some quality of life features like putting the transformation masks on the D-pad, which wasn't being used at all in the port. Highly recommended
glad to be the one who experienced perfection for once, got my first 3ds at christmas 2012 and was my main console till christmas 2016 when i got my xbox one. good console and good era althought i didn't have as much games (farmed game demos) as i did later on other platforms
I asked my friend to send me a video while I am playing my game, he sent me this video. Enjoyed listening to it and it was a great video, glad he showed me this.
My 3ds xl has its own place in my hearth i love the look and feel of many 3ds games there were so many hidden gems!Like i really love the indie game suport like angry birds trilogy.I just can't describe how much i like 3ds games
I wish Nintendo hadn’t cut off the 3DS’s online and eShop so quickly after it was discontinued…since the 3DS was so awesome and even saved them during the 2010s.,..
I wished that all the past Mario & Sonic at The Olympic Games are on Nintendo Switch games just like they did for mario and sonic at the olympic games tokyo 2020 because no one are playing Wii, Wii U and Nintendo 3DS anymore now that they're moving onto Nintendo Switch and there aren't going to be anymore released on Mario & Sonic at The Olympic Games in the future.
Smash Bros is more of a Kirby game than a Mario game. It is a platform fighter but the platformer machanics are closer to a Kirby game than a Mario game
Mario on NES: 😃 Mario on SNES: 👍 Mario on Gameboy: 🥱 Mario on Virtual Boy: 🤮 Mario on N64: 💪 Mario on GBA: 😄 Mario on Gamecube: 😌👌 Mario on DS: 👍 Mario on Wii: 😎 Mario on 3DS: 😀 Mario on Wii U: 🤫 Mario on Switch: 🗿 Mario on Switch 2: ???
It’s pure peak,(handheld wise) 3ds had some of the best Mario games for a portable, 3d land, Mario kart 7, dream team, dark moon, smash 4, all amazing titles. Sticker star, Mario parts,sports superstars may have sucked, but can get completely ignored.
I beg to differ. DS had Mario 64, which was completely nuts at the time, New Super Mario Bros which revolutionized an iconic series for multiple console generations to follow, Mario Kart DS which again was crazy to see on handheld and a great game anyhow, two amazing Mario&Luigi RPGs, the heavily underrated Mario Slam Basketball and, if you count spin-offs, Yoshi's Island, two of the best Wario Wares and one of the very few Princess Peach games. The 3DS's collection was more like somewhere between okay and good and had a number of letdowns, which the DS didn't have at all I think. So yeah, definitely solid, but it didn't reach the heights of the DS.
The 3DS couldn't emulate the system, it could only natively play the games. This means no sleep mode, no save states, no custom boarders for native resolution play (play a GBC or GB Virtual Console game holding select while the game loads if you haven't tried this yet). Nintendo didn't want to release "virtual console" titles that didn't have all the virtual console features like that. Except for Pokemon, Pokemon doesn't allow save states, but that's a special exception to the rules because they didn't want save scumming rare Pokemon. Same reason they blocked Mew from being traded up when caught using the teleport/fly glitch. It's BS, but that's The Pokemon Company for you
@@Kurokibanana1 Those weren't virtual console. The 3DS has GBA functionality built into it directly. The system plays the games natively. This is why they don't support save states, sleep mode, etc. They basically just run the 3DS as an og GBA
@@callumdaniel-ss8vz idk the technical details but whenever I try to play, after a while there is a guaranteed error that you need to restart your 3DS for. Looked up stuff online and it isn't only me, so I think it applies to all physical copies =/
Probably hot take but I think Yoshi's New Island is waay better than NSMB2, at least it tried to have it's own art direction and gimmicks. They're both mid though.
I love the 3DS, but dear god, the only great Mario games on the system were Mario & Luigi Dream Team & Mario Kart 7 Super Mario 3D Land was underwhelming, Sticker Star was disappointing, & the Mario Party games are among some of the most cheaply made games of all time
I wish they didnt stop producing IT so fast. I would have bought IT! Currently or you pay like 400 buccks for good condiruon one or you but SHITTY confition...
Mario on 3ds been good but never done it much because one issue better version on Nintendo more fail console. Say that because 3ds did at start but was not as long as Wii U. Only saving grace is rpg and sports ones. Both karts was good too on Wii U and 3ds. Peak of series for lot was on here and Wii frogot say on my comment there.
This video was good but PLEASE stop saying "amiibos" its "amiibo" not "amiibos" amiibo is the plural of amiibo everytime you said it it made my skin crawl
Meh, I'd say Mario on the WiiU was better than the 3ds. In terms of 3d Mario, 3d World is miles better than 3d Land. In terms of 2d Mario (both mid) but I'd say New Super Mario Bros U is a tad bit better than 2, also got Luigi U which is decent. I played some of the tracks on both Mario Karts, they're both good there, can't really judge much more there. I haven't played any of the other Mario games on 3ds so I can't really judge, but those are some of the main ones and I played.
8:18 DUDE, HAVE YOU NOT PLAYED PAPER MARIO 64, PAPER MARIO TTYD, AND SUPER PAPER MARIO, THOSE GAMES WERE THE BEST IN THE SERIES AND STICKER STAR SHITS ON EVERYTHING THE SERIES WAS KNOWN FOR, DIVERSIVE UNIQUE CHARACTERS GONE, FUN, DRAMATIC, SAD, AND ENGAGING STORIES GONE, ALL THE UNIQUE PARTNERS/PIXLS GONE, FUN AND INTUITIVE GAMEPLAY GONE, UNIQUE AND INTERESTING WORLDS GONE, EVERYTHING THAT MADE THE SERIES SO GREAT WAS TORN AWAY AND THROWED OUT THE WINDOW IN FAVOR OF UNFUNNY PAPER JOKES, A STORY THAT IS SO BLAND AND BORING, VISUALS THAT DONT LOOK APPEALING TO LOOK AT, COUNTLESS AMOUNT OF TOADS, NO PARTNERS BESIDE KERSTI WHO IS SO ANNOYING AND THE WORST PART OF ALL, GAMEPLAY THAT IS SO UNFUN AND FRUSTRATING TO SIT THROUGH.
I don't think so, I feel it may be on average one of the Mario series's weakest systems, too many of the games were solid but not as good as previous entries like 3D Land or MK7, others were fine but dissapointing like Paper Jam or NSMB2, or others were just not great like Sticker Star, the Mario Party games or all of the Mario sports games besides Golf.

@@3dsfan2002 of course 3DS has some beautiful games, it's literally one generation ahead. But most of it's games are still JRPG's, 2D platformers and puzzle games. It may be not as noticeable if you're only interested in first party games tho.
