Anyone seen a good guide on replacing the full housing on a New 3ds XL? Got a refurbed one from Gamestop but the housing has a couple scratches.

I'm playing through the Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and I'm having a lot of fun.

There were purists complaining that the new art style isn't very good. I'm a big fan of it. Not having the exaggerated poses is a shame, but the new style isn't without merit. I homebrewed my 2DS over the weekend and put the original GBA game on there for the hell of it. I think something is off about it in comparison. The brother's faces look too big and yet scrunched, and the jumping animation isn't very satisfying.

Magnetite is in Devil Survivor too, that's the only SMT game I've seen it in (I haven't played Soul Hackers yet, or any of the older ones). You get it from battles, and can use it to transfer skills from demons to your human characters iirc. Or was it vice-versa? I forget.

I think the style is fine, but it's impossible not to compare with the original. In the SS remake especially, it reminds me of an idealized version of what Super Mario RPG was going for, artwise

Magnetite was just money in those games. Soul Hackers has both it and yen, so it works differently functionally.

The Nintendo 3DS family of systems also demonstrated continued strength, posting its best sales month since December 2014. Collectively, the different versions of Nintendo 3DS hardware sold more than 750,000 units in the U.S. in December, a 27 percent increase over the same period a year ago. The sales also pushed the Nintendo 3DS family of systems to a new milestone of more than 21 million sold in the U.S.

It wasn't, but both 3D Land and NSMB2 have had multiple printings and been consistently available since release, and selling for $25 for at least a year.

LBW is the one that's needed as Selects release, it's been out of print for a while and fetching $30+ used.

Kirby Battle Royale is pretty fun, but I gotta admit sword seems pretty busted. Everything has these fun interesting moves that deal a third of a lifebar when charged up but sword can cover like, 1/4th of a arena and chunk out half of a enemies health with it's charge attack for free. It's kinda weird.

Does the demo for the new Kirby have exclusive content or can I just go directly to the main game?

The demo lets you unlock characters early or something, I forget.

I need more slots in that theme shuffler because I have something like twenty themes I want to keep in use now. I only ever bought one theme, an ALBW one to go with my ALBW 3DSXL, the rest have been free including ones from My Nintendo.

My ✨New✨ 3DS XL's frame is black*. The black theme that comes with the 3DS matches it very well. What other theme would I need?

*Actually close enough to bronze to use DSi XL accessories and have them match, but that's what Nintendo calls it.

Even though they're very different games it's a shame because Triple Deluxe still makes some of the best use of 3D on the system

Agreed. It’s a shame since they could have done 3D really well with this one too like with Link Between Worlds.

One Nation, Under God.
Aside from Nintendo giving up on 3D, I suspect 3D + 60FPS + online multiplayer may have been a little too much even for HAL.

I do wish Nintendo would have gone back and patched some of their older games with New 3DS enhancements - games like Luigi's Mansion and DKC Returns would really benefit from a higher framerate, both with and without 3D.

Pretty good
