The Nintendo DS and 3DS

I've been in a DS/3DS mood lately, which made me put aside the Switch for a while. There's still several good DS and 3DS games I haven't played or don't own yet.

Honestly, this was a pretty fun family of handheld systems Nintendo created. With the dual screen and touch controls. The fact you can play DS games on the 3DS and neither system is region locked is even better.

I also love the presentation and the features the 3DS has. Switch's home menu looks so dull in comparison.

I've spent hours on Animal Crossing New Leaf, Pokémon games, Smash and Advance Wars on my 3DS. And then there's games you can beat in less than 30 hours but still have a lot of fun with such as Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask remakes, A Link Between Worlds, the Fire Emblem games, Contra 4, NSMB, Professor Layton, Ace Attorney, etc.

I haven't owned an original DS, so I play all my DS games on the 3DS. Meaning I've experienced both systems at the same time basically.

What are your memories from the DS and 3DS and yoyr favourite games?
