I dunno, I think the 3DS is the best handheld system ever

In terms of the sheer amount of features, yeah, I can understand that.

But I think the DS has a far better library of games. That being said, the 3DS is still fairly new, so it definitely has a chance in getting even better. But at this exact moment in time, I'd say the DS is my favorite handheld.

Hell, I was pretty glued to my GBA SP, as well. Lots of fond memories.

If the game library is the only reason I say the point is moot since the 3DS can play DS games.

The convenience store that opened nearby lacks a working ATM. Time to go into town...

And most of them look like [parasitic bomb] on the system.

Simply, there are games developed for DS, there are games developed for 3DS (etc.) That's how I look at it.

Just because it has the capability of playing DS games, I don't give it extra points on the "enjoyment" scale.

Hypothetically, I won't play a DS game I've never experienced before, play it on the 3DS and go, "Oh wow, what a great DS title," then proceed to praise the 3DS for playing games that weren't developed for it. A DS game is a DS game. I'll acknowledge it as such.

It's like praising the Vita's Remote Play feature for playing PS2 games, when the Vita merely doubles as a controller.

The only game I had a problem with on the 3DS was Pokemon White 2 and probably by proxy Pokemon Soul Silver and Pokemon White but I haven't played the others since I have Pokemon Y and my other games seemed to be fine. Chrono Trigger looks pretty damn good on the 3DS.

Hence why I said "most" games.

Every 3D game and a large chunk of 2D games look bad on the 3DS. For example, Ace Attorney looks blurry and completely loses the nice crisp look of the character sprites.

I wish there was an update that could fix that problem, I really didn't have much of it but I understand that it is a problem.

So, my mom is coming on Tuesday.

YAY.

So my mom thinks negative reinforcement is still the way to go and threatened to take my phone and change the internet password again because of THE DISHES.

Avoiding the fact that taking my phone away would be taking my alarm clock away, I love how they get pissed about when I don't do dishes but when its my turn to cook I don't give two fucks about the dishes.

YAY.

My mom and your mom should hook up.

Ugh Dad, stop telling me I should go back into Ag I had a few [tornado fang]ing reasons why I left. MORAL CONFLICTING REASONS!

My dad and your dad should hook up.

He gives me the same speech for every Liberal Arts degree I've abandoned for some reason or another.

He's also technically a hypocrite since not only he himself changed majors, he never finished college.

Same with my dad! Mr. Never-finished-his-masters-in-English-yet-he-flaunts-it. Doesn't count if you don't have the degree, dude.

9 hour shift on thanksgiving followed by a 7:30-4:30 shift on Black Friday.

Uhh... What did I do to deserve a long day consuming shift on thanksgiving?
