I only ask, because that console is selling used where I live for about 200-300, but the 3dsxl is only about 100 if you find a good deal usually around 120.
I’ve tried minecraft new 3ds edition, and it’s only playable if you turn up the emulated cpu clock speed on citra, the actual console isn’t powerful enough to run it playably.
Thanks, I’ve never played Minecraft and it’s the one game on that list I was kinda interested in but not really.
You’re comment validates my purchase of a normal 3ds k
Minecraft really is a must-play for everyone, but only if you get the java edition. the bedrock edition is inferior and doesn’t have mods.
Imo the main addition to that console is that face tracking made the 3d work properly.
The only 3DS I had was a N3DS, maybe that explains why I’ve never had issues with the 3D while most people seem to complain about it?
This is correct, however SNES Virtual Console games were also exclusive and a number of games were enhanced on New consoles.
If you’re looking to save a bit of money, you might want to consider a Japanese console and modding it. 3DS prices are pretty crazy at the moment and no one knows if they’ll ever come down.
There’s some more games that benefit from the extra power, like Smash Bros.
And if you’re interested in emulating older systems on it, you’ll need the extra power.
If you use CFW you can toggle it on in games that don’t natively use it too. I have it toggled down specifically for Omega Ruby purely because otherwise it stutters when an attack goes
I really don’t know. I only found this list online and assumed it was comprehensive.
There’s some japanese only games too but yeah that’s pretty much it.
Yeah, the list of New 3DS exclusives is pretty short.
I am fairly sure that having a New 3DS does help with performance on some original 3DS games though.
The system will actually downclock when running titles that are not specifically flagged as N3DS enhanced. This can be overridden through softmodding though.
