I got those two for $20. One for me and one for my son. Working on setting up the custom firmware and Nintendont to servers since the closure of the official ones.

      It is the most retro supporting piracy console, it’s elite IMO. I have two with HShop on them and CFW.

      Legitimately the only mobile device I’ve gamed on for two years.

        Exactly! And it’s not emulated on iOS (delta goes to DS max, Citra is too buggy) And the 2DS can do any handheld emulation up to itself.

        Plus I never liked the 3D screen, it messed with my eyes too much (I have strabismus /lazy eye)

        In my house alone I have two 2DSes, one 3DS, three 2DSXLs, one N3DS, and one N3DSXL.

        I’m tempted to get a couple more but I’ve already modded the N3DSXL with a huge SD card and a ton of games. Personally I think the N3DS is more comfortable but I haven’t wanted to transfer everything over to it.

          The N3DSXL looks really appealing but not the same price as that tag sale find.

      They have switched off the servers so I guess it’s “old” rather than “current”

      It’s was pretty easy (failed once because I didn’t quite follow the steps, you really need to count your button presses and screen taps, any extra press and it’s a do over)

    What do you meant Nintendont? That is on Wii U.

    Who are the custom servers for DS?

      You’re right. My mistake. I meant hShop (download games directly) and Twilight++ (play DS/DSi games)

      Edit: and Pretendo in lieu of Nintendo ID
