Should I trade in my 3DSXL to get the New 3DS so I can download and play SNES games?

Should I trade in my 3DSXL to get the New 3DS so I can download and play SNES games?

fuck no
/thread

no because you can emulate an snes on almost anything

Nah m8, wait and see what NX is. Nothing worse than buying a handheld and having a new one come out a few months later.

NX doesn't come out for another 10 months

No. Just emulate the snes on the pc you're posting from.

Wait is there news I'm missing? Can the N3DS buy and play SNES VC titles?

>this nigga.

It's the 3DS man. I haven't had a reason to unzip it from its case here on my desk in months. It's more dusty than my Cintiq.

Yeah, the line up currently is:
Earthbound
Zelda:LTTP
Super metriod
Contra 3
Super mario world
Super punch out
DK country 1 & 2
and Pilotwings

The emulation is actually pretty faithful, (you get a choice of pixel perfect emulation and you can switch controllers.) a downside to that is that if the game had a frame rate drop on the snes, it has the same frame rate drop on the N3DS emulation.

I don't use my 3DS either, I prefer the lighter and sleeker DS.

I take it these are not titles shared with other platforms right? Because I've bought like half that list back on the Wii and then again on the Wii U.

N3DS is literally worthless unless you're interested in streaming video.

Other than that it loads some apps 10 seconds faster and has a whopping 2 exclusive games that are both ports.

Just hack your 3DSXL and install blargSNES.

Only the Mario and Zelda ports have good screenshots, the rest look like garbage.

>hack XL to play more than the pathetic tiny SNES library on the eShop
Use your fucking brain.

Nah, just homebrew your shit and call it a day. You'll only need it for N3DS exclusives, which isn't much at all.

Almost certainly not.
Still it's 3ds you can just pirate them if you dont want to pay, though it would likely still require n3DS

Because they're really GBA ports.

The original 3DS emulate SNES games and emulated games in general like shit.

and having older 3DS games run better due to the better hardware when you have CFW. and better emulators.

GBA VCs look like garbage though.

The N3DS has better 3D tracking and you have a chance of getting an IPS screen.

Fuck no, just go get a PSP on the cheap and hack that fucker.

Best of Both Worlds.

The PSP's SNES emulation isn't great.

Why not? It's been, what, 6 years?

Because the PSP's hardware hasn't gotten any better since the thing came out, user.

...

And the emulator hasn't been tweaked, streamlined, and improved of because...?

Any 3ds games worth downloading that aren't 1st party?

Because there's only so much you can do, user. Emulators aren't fucking magic.
