every time I go thru TSA with my DS they comment on it and this time I got a "you still rocking the DS?" And I panicked and went " yeah 👍"

I wonder why game freak removed this feature…

You may be happy to learn that in French(please keep reading !), DS is pronounced the same as oublié word for "goddess"

Which is what she deserves, honestly

I'm obsessed with the way this post is formatted. like the "please keep reading" is not even a full sentence in 😭 guys do I seem like someone who can't read text unless it's about the DS. wait don't answer that

Oh hey, quadruple digits! I (glue) wanted to make something to celebrate one thousand posts, which involved delaying posts until I finished making this flipnote at a leisurely pace (heh)...

The typing animation is directly from the Persona 5 opening cinematic--almost frame for frame. For exporting / viewing flipnotes in high quality, I used this website. That's enough talk--thanks again :D

Here’s my DS family, still both inexplicably in full working order. And as a bonus, a picture of me and my friend playing our DS lites together in 2007.

For the 16 year anniversary of National Geographic Panda (Also known as Panda-san Nikki in Japan) Bandai Namco has released the OST onto youtube. This soundtrack is notable for featuring Yoshihito Yano, also known for his work on Katamari Damacy. This is part of Bandai's new music label, Bandai Namco Game Music, which aims to put all of Bandai's video game music on streaming services.

my old rose gold ds lite with a like...ten year old dragonology sticker still hanging on as decoration. i used to have a white ds lite but dropped it on the concrete and one side of the screen came loose. it still worked for a while after that but eventually totally broke apart. the rose gold one survives, though! been synthesizing cool monsters i like in dqmj2 recently. s'fun.

question for the crowd. how is this rose gold am i missing something. this is clearly silver

Okay I saw you mentioning needing to see a DSi XL irl and I can’t help you there BUT this seems like the perfect opportunity to show off my little DS collection

From top to bottom: metallic rose DS lite, green DSi XL (without the big pen :( I want that so bad), flame red o3DS, white n3DS XL

Here’s the DSi XL and n3DS XL next to each other for size purposes:

They’re physically about the same size, but the DSi XL feels bigger when they’re both opened

Here’s the DS lite next to the DSi XL as well:

The DSi XL is, of course, a LOT bigger. Games feel HUGE on the DSi XL screen

I don’t have much else to say so I’m gonna wrap this up. Here’s a pic of the back of my n3DS XL to show off the pictures on the bottom.

I wish I could give you a source for the case/shell/idk but I bought it off someone on Mercari. I bought one for my partner’s o3DS XL from GameoverCustom on Etsy (who doesn’t even sell them anymore) but the hinge in the case itself makes it really uncomfortable in my opinion. I don’t have any photos, but I have seen people post cases/shells/idks on here with the hinge before so hopefully someone knows what I’m talking about

I also own a modded GameBoy Color and a Switch, but neither of them mean nearly as much to me as my DSes. It’s probably just the nostalgia speaking since I grew up with a DS and then a 3DS. Nothing will ever live up to them in my mind.

I hope you enjoyed my little DS collection :)

Rambling about my 3ds because I love your blog and I love Nintendo consoles! So growing up I never had a console, I would play Animal Jam on my shitty Samsung tablet but I always dreamed of having a 3ds. Last summer I finally got one (second-hand ofc), it’s a black o3dsxl and I love it. Flashforward to october 2023, I start a Sonic hyperfixation (idek how that happened don't ask). Now my ultimate goal is to make my 3ds as Sonic-themed as possible. Thank you homebrew for existing. Anyway here's my child:

I got the theme on Theme Plaza, the artwork is from Sonic 2 and the music playing in the background (which you can’t hear because my dumbass is too lazy to record a video) is a remix of Emerald Hill Zone (also from Sonic 2).

Speaking of the devil, I happen to have the 3ds port of this game:

It’s kinda meh though I prefer the mobile port.

I also have a few other games installed, such as Sonic Rush for the ds (rom hack) and Sonic Unleashed 3ds (fan port/remake, it’s only a demo atm but I believe it’s still being worked on!).

As for my cartridges, I’ve got these:

Sonic Colors ds, my favorite one (the u in the title stands for european), Sonic Generations 3ds (this game’s fine I prefer the console version but this one’s okay ig) and Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (haven’t played it a lot but it’s fun!).

Anyways that’s it for now, if I ever add more Sonic to my 3ds maybe I’ll post it idk

I really like Sonic 😁

Here's my midnight purple OG 3DS I've had since 2012. Still in good condition. Haven't played it in a long time so I decked it up with a custom decal inspired by Disney's Haunted Mansion ride.

Spooky aesthetic is the best aesthetic IMO.

I also got a new pink case for it because the other was so old. (The Hello Kitty charm and ds cloth was from the old case so I placed it on the new one).

I HAVE UNEARTHED MY OLD ORIGINAL DS LITE…i didn’t even know i still had her! i have no clue if she still functions, i doubt it, but once i get my charger out of storage i’ll try and fire her up.

the duct tape is so real. i hope she works.. DSs can be both surprisingly resilient and weirdly fragile, so i hope you got the former.

best, glue
