    Man looking at that list of switch games for the next 6 months, there's nothing for me until Fire Emblem, which is a maybe, and then Astral Chain which is day 1.

    Though I am thinking about picking up Hollow Knight for switch. I've been putting off playing it since there's been so many other games this year, but holy crap that Silksong trailer was sick.

    The Ds still feels more fun to carry around compared to the switch
    I love flipping it open too

    The switch just seems too boring in comparison

    I still have my original launch day DS for playing GBA games. I never had a GBA, but I've been considering going back and grabbing one of the properly lit ones. They're hard to track down for a reasonable price anymore.

    The problem with Indie games is that well, people may have already played most of them before.

    Yeah I gave most of my GBA collection to a cousin years ag,o and now I want to rebuild it plus pick up some games missed at the time, and that's been pricier than anticipated

    I did recently buy a Game Boy Macro build off a guy in the UK who is incredible at refurbing Nintendo handhelds, too, since I wanted a backlight but am far too large in the hands for a Micro or SP

    Sent my 3ds up to the nice farm upstate where it will have space to run. I hadn't touched it for months at this point.

    Now what to buy with this eShop card...

    I’ve been playing a lot of old games on the 3ds lately myself. Not much new stuff until the Yoshi game.

    I've been meaning to purchase another Gameboy SP to store it into my work briefcase for some break-time gaming.

    But what game to put with it???

    A Tetris and then rotate through Metroids/Castlevanias.

    There is a Gamestop nearby work so I think they took it in did not get the price they wanted so threw it out or someone did


    I have an original GBA I have is in nearly prefect factory fresh

    I want one of the clamshell GBAs but there is a lot of redo kits and people proclaiming how certain screens are better than others so I have no idea

    The strict insistence on two screens feels bizarre to me mostly because I feel like games that utilized having two screens in even a slightly meaningful capacity we're the exception and not the rule

    It’s still pretty nice having typical start menu stuff readily available at all times

    Itks a godsend for Zelda and Castlevania games, for example

    Nintendo wasn’t ever gonna make another Elite Beat game, the dual screens fulfilled their purpose

    Of course they won't

    iNiS could potentially do another rhythm game in that style, however.

    They've kinda been pumping out hot trash for a decade though

    The developers of Ouendan and EBA were last attached to Project Rap Rabbit, and they've been silent since that went pear shaped near as I can tell

    Sheesh the Tetris diehards really come out to play on Saturday night it seems. I was getting knocked out before breaching the first thirty or forty spots pretty frequently.

    the original DS is goddamn tough which is part of the reason I like it more than the other DS models.

    I've never had a DS, other than the launch version, that didn't eventually develop some physical fault, like the faulty shoulder buttons on the ds lite, or the joystick cover that constantly pops off the 3ds

    Nintendo hardware is generally, very tough.

    Like that gameboy what survived the bombing.

    Their handhelds definitely are

    My nintendo home consoles have always been rife with problems, though

    Nintendo hardware being tough is largely not true any longer

    Switch is fairly fragile (if it gets handled roughly, count on your joycons not clicking onto the rails properly anymore)

    I'd say the last system Nintendo released that felt really durable was the N64

    it feels sturdy, but I had more weird disk read errors on the gamecube than I ever had on the xbox or ps2 combined.

    People used to post videos of them tossing gamecubes and game boys and whatever off balconies and they’d keep working, I seem to recall.

    My GameCube fell off the TV stand while playing Double Dash and it didn't even flinch. The game just kept going

    My first PS2 probably broke after a door slammed nearby

    an Elite Beat game would need at least some rhyme, tho, if not reason

    For me, it was the discs themselves that felt the most fragile. Because the disc was so small, an equal size scratch/scuff seemed to do more data damage on a GC disc than a PS2 disc.
