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?
I recently jailbroken mine so I could play Japanese games. Because it’s aimed at all ages it has lots of games with furigana text. Since I already have a 3DS it was a better option than buying a modded Switch.
Also the games on 3DS are unique because of the dual screens. It’s an experience you can’t have on Switch. And lots of GenZ people grew up with 3DS and are searching to scratch that nostalgia itch. I think also the rising cost of new games is pushing people to piracy. And a jailbroken 3DS is super convenient for that.
私も日本語を勉強しているので、読みやすいことを探しています。勧めゲームがありますか？
The Zelda remakes are pretty accessible for a learner though not a lot of text. Animal Crossing has lots of text but some villagers talk weird or kawaii so can be confusing but it’s still good. The Mario & Luigi rpgs and the Dragon Quests rpgs have lots of text and furigana so I recommend those too.
