   Welcome back to my life, old friend. I missed you.

     @killyourfm I think the ds/3ds is the best form factor for a handheld
     They should bring it back

     @notdaniel_ I forgot how magical this little device is. The way it feels to tap an icon with the stylus, all the gentle menu music. It had such a personality.

     @killyourfm Have you added the hshop yet?

     I highly recommend checking out the SM64 compiled for the 3DS. It plays very well and so much fun in 3D. Makes me wonder why Nintendo didn't remake it for the 3DS.

     Damnit, I'm like a little kid again! I couldn't sleep last night because I kept thinking about playing my new 3DS 🤣

     Finally crawled out of bed at 4:30a...

     Wait… I can stream my 3DS to PC? This is awesome! Works for carts and for homebrew apps!

     In this example I’m streaming my physical cart of Super Mario 3D Land and playing with an 8bitDo controller.

     This seems to work only with physical carts and shop games, but not homebrew apps.

     Still really cool!

     @killyourfm I don't know... 🤔

     Doesn't the form factor of the 3DS make it unappealing to play via an emulator on PC? It was kind of meant to be played with two screens and a stylus.

     @ProfessorCode For games that are more traditional and don't utilize the second screen (of which there are plenty) it can be a nice break for the eyes. And also useful for grabbing good screenshots or video.

     This is why #3ds homebrew exists. So I can hear the glorious sound of a Dreamcast disc drive spinning up and then enjoy the dulcet tones of Phantasy Star Online.

     @Htbaa Seriously!? I honestly thought it was unofficial. That's fantastic!

     @killyourfm The Dreamcast theme is actually an official theme. I have it on my unmodded 3DS in the theme rotation as well :-).

     @killyourfm yes there are themes from SEGA’s other consoles as well. So cool they did that. The 3DS is such a fun system.

     @Htbaa Then I suppose I'm thankful to homebrew for granting me access to that theme since all official internet services on the 3DS have shut down.
