My modded 3DS is my constant companion. I’ve got a pc, the AYN Odin, a switch, but it’d the 3DS that I always come back to.

Truly one of the best libraries and one of the most charming devices out there.

Let’s have a thread commemorating it! Share your memories, favorite games, anything.

The thing I will always miss the most about the 3DS was Streetpass. I made a few friends in collage because we kept Streetpassing each other all the time and eventually met up and starting talking. Not to mention I’d take my 3DS with me on trips to NYC and get hundreds of Streetpasses from people all over the world. It definitely made carrying around the 3DS worthwhile and it’s a shame that we’ll probably never see something like that again.

Streetpass was such a cool, and fun thing. I’d love to have an app on my phone that worked like streetpass, with some modern controls. Just collecting people’s miis was silly and some people got really creative with it.

Man I miss StreetPass too. Years ago when I had an original 3DS I’d try and leave it in sleep mode as often as possible when my family would drive several states away to see distant families at Christmas. For one trip id get dozens of hits.

I just bought a New 3DS XL right before last Christmas and I tried the same thing and got zero hits from either drive.

@M1llenia street pass at conventions was amazing. Everyone had a 3DS and you would cap on people
