      I was about to say; any DSiWare downloads that released for the DSi Shop is also on the 3DS eshop; so you should be able to get X-Scape. The DSiWare version of Shantae Risky's Revenge (which was its first release) can also be downloaded this way; that's how I got it.

    A nice Punching Weight localisation:
    When the DS rpg Inazuma Eleven by Level-5 (Best known for the Professor Layton and Yo-Kai Watch series) got localised for Europe, the sequel was already out in Japan. The localisers didn't just translate the game, but they also added all information on new characters and moves from the sequel to the game's data, just so that when the sequel eventually released in Europe it would be completely backwards compatible.
    Inazuma Eleven 2 also had some very interesting features like sharing your team to battle against for other players while passing someone while your DS is in sleep mode...
    This might just sound like Street Pass, but the thing is... It was a DS game released years before the 3DS and it already had it built in to the game cart.
    At least someone was happy about it, the game was very popular at my primary school so everyone was hyped when Inazuma Eleven 2 released, we all bought it and played together at school but the weird kid in the corner of the classroom couldn't afford the game but we still tried to connect with his copy of Inazuma Eleven 1, and we were very surprised to see that we still were able to play together without any restrictions

    I made a topic in some forums recently asking for gameboy recommendations and someone said X. At first I thought he meant MMX, but no, it was a shooter. I could not find very much info at all on it, let alone the rom, so its a crazy coincidence it came up in your video. Hopefully more stuff on it will start sprouting up now

    I rented Faceball 2000 from my local library as a kid. Kid me was blown away! Then I played it on an emulator a couple of decades later. I...I honestly thought I just had a bad rom or something. Nope. That was the framerate kid me was able to overlook. I lost my innocence the day I lost that ability, I think.
    Great vid, absolutely LOVE this series.

    Faceball 2000 on SNES was my favorite quirky game as kid, rented from Tommy Ks ton of times before my mom said we need to buy it (probably spent more than its worth in rental fees haha) Luckily I found out about Funcoland then and got a used copy (how did we survive as gamers without eBay and online retailers?). BTW X-Scape is awesome too, glad to see you giving it some love. I have the original Japanese X in box, not too expensive yet and I recommend for any Gameboy fan!

    It just shows how much you could do with the good old Zilog 80 CPU. God bless this little piece of silicone. As a kid in the 90s, i had no idea 3D games existed on the game boy. For some reason these games weren't talked about and nobody i knew, who had a game boy as well, had any of these titles. Almost as if they weren't released in europe.

    I appreciate what you're trying to say, that 3D as we know it today has had a slow evolution, but 3D games have existed in some form almost as long as video games.
    Elite, an open world space trading sim, came out in 1984. (It was ported to the NES, incidentally.) SubLogic started making flight simulators in 1979. Battlezone was a tank game, a big arcade hit in 1980.

      That's because he said "come at," not "come with." Lol. "...expect it to come at the cost of actual gameplay,"

    Bill Elliott's NASCAR Fast Tracks actually has a surprising amount of depth to it. Tunning your car for different tracks, damage/tire wear effecting handling, even drafting making you go faster _and_ saving fuel. It was made by the same team who made Test Drive 1&2 and the first 5 Need for Speed games. That screen tearing though... It is a shame we never got a proper NASCAR game on the GBA, would have been so much more capable!
