A perfect 5/7, would game there

Fucking love the Nintendo 3DS. My favorite console of all time. Comfortable, fantastic games, great range of first party titles that implemented 3-D extremely well, and of course my favorite feature: StreetPass. My god I loved StreetPass. So much fun bringing it anywhere and getting that green flashing light telling you visitors arrived on your 3DS.

I played the hell out of the StreetPass mini games, and also enjoyed some of the implementations in various titles.

A Link Between Worlds probably takes the crown as my favorite game on 3DS. I also installed custom firmware on it, and when I’m not playing SteamDeck, I bust out the 3DS to play old roms. I have so much nostalgia with this portable, my spouse and I would play this all the time when we were dating too. I cherish the 3DS.

When Nintendo gets shit right, they really knock it out of the park.

10/10 - the Nintendo DS/3DS has enough games to keep you busy for life

9/10. Needs an absolutely unrepentant oversized bean bag chair.

OOC:

Treasure this moment. One of my best gaming memories was moving into a new place with a roommate after being homeless for two weeks. We didn't have furniture, we just had a frozen pizza, a six pack, and his switch with smash ultimate on it. We played on the half all night. It was a candle in the darkness, knowing that even without much we had a roof over our heads and each other. Just pure relief and joy.

Move in floor beers are the best.

Hell yeah.

I never experienced homelessness but I was lonely growing up. I remember meeting a new kid at school and and we played Earthbound until 3am on his SNES and fell asleep feeling like I was floating because I found a friend and a cool game.

That said It was also the day I saw Starship Troopers in theaters and saw boobs for the first time so that may have been contributory. All in all though banner day.

Oh man I'd be chasing that dragon to the end of the earth

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

clean as heck

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

You might need a bean bag or sofa. The floor can be a bit uncomfortable.

Also a charging cable and an outlet to not run out of battery.

That's what my HTC Vive gaming room looked like.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

My current htc vive gaming setup is: in a box, on a dusty shelf.

I gave mine to my adult kid, and he loves it.

If you have an entire room for gaming you are killing it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

You need a couch and a few pee jars, and You'll be set.

10 "sick, dudes" outta 10.
