This is amazing shame Bishop89's post is already over 3 months old now.
19 year old American ResetEra users are currently frantically trying to figure out how to use the power of DongBeetle math to get into bars
I tried to help ya out, OP but title-sama was too stronk. Era has cast derailaga.
P.S. I'm pretty sure you bailed by now. Good luck with the next thread!

"Listen Bartender trust me this forum user 'DongBeetle' said I was all good. I'm 21 now think of it like I had a couple hundred leap years back to back growing up!".
7 years and 11 months in the USA. I got mine day 1 for $250. No regerts
I personally couldnt get over the batterylife numbers, I caved once I saw Pokemon X on my coworkers XL... I literally went out and bought the 3DS XL and Pokemon after coming home from work... Zero regrets.
I'm a day oner as well. It was great being a part of the Ambassador Program, too. 20 free games was pretty sweet. 21 with 4 Swords.
A system worth owning.
Five years since Breath of the Wild came out and still no new 3D Zelda on the horizon smh Nintendo.
The Ambassador program was honestly a pretty cool and unexpected reward for being an early adopter. I knew what I was paying for when I bought it at launch, so getting something when the price dropped was a nice extra.
Fun fact: 10 years ago today was the day Marty McFly traveled to 2011 to release the New 3DS XL.
For a second i thought i had overslept a bit and lost a few years.
The Ultimate Necrobump.
Also people should give OP a break.
Time is relative, so maybe for him it has really been 10 years.

No as you could have said "The 3DS has been out almost 8 years...thoughts?"
In all seriousness it does kinda feel like the 3DS stopped putting out a ton of must-have titles around 2015. But I think the company was going through a few weird years there transitioning into the Switch era. Not that the games released since then have been bad, but I remember 2013-2014 being the system's peak.
Really enjoyed the system itself though, especially the XL model. Although I can't exactly recall a laundry list of my favorite games on it, I know I've put hundreds of hours into it and feel like the system successfully pushed past the awkward middle phase of the DS (where the tech wasn't quite there for great 3D games but did allow for A+ 2D games).

I literally said this out loud before opening the thread. You're like a mind-reader.
Yeah, it's a shame the studio had to shut down after Metroid Prime flopped.
Unfortunately time travel creates parallel timelines.
In one we got Kid Icarus, and another Fzero, and another we got Mother 3. From this we only know he also received KI, so we need to learn what else is different before he disappears or continues traveling through the timelines.
