Last year I bought two Nintendo "DS Lite" and one Nintendo "New 3DS". The DS Lite were a little small for my hands, and that's how I ended up buying the "New 3DS". The "New 3DS" fit my hands nicely and had a comfortable screen size. I bought all of these things second hand off of the equivalent of eBay/Craigs List in my country. I also picked up some DS games and a couple of 3DS games for free.
My original plan was to have a go at homebrew for DS, which is why I bought the DS Lites in the first hand.
I ended up not doing any homebrew for any of them, but had fun playing the games that I got for them.
After having played all the games that were worth playing I sold all of it. Ended up even making a buck or two. Not like profitable business basis kind of extra money but just a little more than I had paid originally, because I'd picked cheap ones when I bought and I also had the games I had gotten for free which I included when selling them again.
- dumb1224 5y agoI did the same to pick up DS lite in 2016 but not like you that I didn't want projects, just some fun. I never played them when they were released when I was at Univ nor the other consoles. I'm a big Castlevania fan but only played torrented copies on emulators. The feel of Lite and the optimised gameplay experience stunned me. It reminds me of the old Gameboy feeling. So much fun than any games on PC (control-wise). I quite like the fact that it is compatible with GBA games. And the experience is consistent with native DS games. Best 50 pounds spent on second hand devices.
