Let's discuss: Nintendo DS - eviltoast

As I have recently bought a secondhand 2DS, I thought I would change things up a bit!

Let’s discuss the Nintendo DS series of portable consoles. What is your favorite version? What games are most memorable to you? What aspects do you like about it? What doesn’t work for you? Feel free to share any thoughts that come up, or react to other peoples comments. Let’s get the conversation going!

If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

      If you rip out the C-Stick and replace it with a PSP-1000 joystick, it makes it actually usable!

          Yep! Doesn’t touch the screen at all. It snaps right in, too! Made Monster Hunter playable for me hahaha

            Nice. If I find a cap for cheap it might be what takes the thing out of retirement. But I’ll admit, the age is starting to show

              Oh absolutely. I rarely bust mine out anymore even though it has every game hahaha (modded and R4 for DS games.) Can’t beat a nice round of Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! or the second one, though!
