as alluded to in Jan '25 Monthly Game Club - Attack of the Friday Monsters! A Tokyo Tale, i dug out my old 3ds (a new-style XL one) to hack it and WOW this thing is awesome. i stuck a random 64gb sd card i had lying around in there, but after a day in the archives i regret not grabbing a 128gb one instead. i’ve installed:
- dragon quest monsters 2
- attack of the friday monsters
- smt 4 + apocalypse
- devil survivor 1 + 2
- persona q + q2
- smt strange journey
- dq 5,7,8,9
- soul hackers
- radiant historia
- eo v
- bravely default
- the dark spire
- lufia
- 999
- the world ends with you
- wario ware
- rhythm heaven
- retro game challenge
obviously more games than i’ll have time to play in my life, let alone anytime soon. and there’s still more out there that look interesting! if i would have found this before i bought my steam deck, i might have saved myself a few hundred dollars.
now that i’m 3ds enlightened, i’m concerned about taking good care of this thing. i ordered a new battery that should be here soon, but if there is anything i should know for longevity’s sake, please do let me know.
