I mean, there’s clearly a demand for it since the prices have gotten through the roof. Should I really purchase one or is it pointless and a waste of money. What’s the reason behind its sudden resurgence despite it being an “old” console as the Switch lineup has replaced it? Does it have to do with physical game ownership?


Yeah we’re at a point far enough past the 3DS’s heyday that replicas are generally better quality and cheaper now
I still wonder how the replica machines handle 3DS homebrew, though I suppose a lot of it probably doesn’t matter since it’s enabling or expanding on 3DS functionality that the replica machines would already have built in
