I recently cracked my 3ds (which is super easy to do now that they've stopped updating it) and you can use it to play any previous generation games (up to PS1). Wish I knew that before I bought a purpose-made console lol

I have a huge catalog of games but since I'm switching out my SD card for a bigger one, I'm looking to basically just download whatever seems interesting. What's your favorite 3ds and nds games? (Please don't say Pokémon)

For the NDS I recommend Radiant Historia. It has an excellent story and the same composer as the Mario RPG games. It's as "hidden gem" as it gets

Already have it! On the NDS and the remake for the 3DS which I might play instead. Curious to see how different it looks.

Of the two I definitely prefer the original DS version. I feel like the 3DS additions, while good in a vacuum, tamper and dilute what I see is a VERY carefully crafted world and story in ways I can't spoil. I have preferences for the DS version's art and even gameplay as well.

Both are great, though. You're getting Radiant Historia either way.
