Because of the 3ds's resolution vs the ds, games have to be upscaled to fit the entire screen. This makes the games look blurry, very blurry. There's a way to play ds games native on the 3ds by holding start while booting the game, but it makes the game look tiny. Try the comparison yourself, DS games on a DS look so much sharper

backwards compatibility without any loss of features, or so i thought

carrying a 3ds is better than carrying a 3ds and a ds

"hold start and select and it plays the game in original DS resolution"

yeah, i know. i posted it in the original post, original resolution = native resolution

it doesn't change the fact that native looks tiny

if i was nintendo, i would have made the 3ds have 2 times the resolution as the DS, so it would scale better.

"The 3ds is the best handheld.

eh, i don't think there is any best handheld.

The GBA is great.
The DS is great, and can play gba games. However, it loses link cable functionality, which is a problem for pokemon. It would have been nice if nintendo made some effort to make the ds do local wireless to emulate the wireless adapters you could get for the game boy.
The 3DS is pretty good as well, but backwards compatibility is pretty bad, DS games look blurry on it and it can't play game boy games, neither could the dsi

Nintendo did make an emulator for the 3ds which gave all the classic Nintendo games.

I'm not surprised you play Nintendo handhelds at all, I'm surprised that you are speaking about Nintendo handhelds. Because the majority of the time I see you, you're going on about PC. Besides, if I have to be an old VGC'er to know that you discuss about Nintendo handhelds, isn't it a little bit obvious that most of your posts are centered around PC?

Y'know, seeing a dedicated PC fanboy like you discussing about a Nintendo handheld (whether it be negative or positive) surprises me.

(sorry for acting like that earlier, I guess I was mad for whatever reason)

I'm not entirely too new or I'm not some old veteran VGF'er with 10K+ posts. I've been here for 5 months or so. That's why I was surprised, (don't take this with no offense), the majority of the time, I see you talking about PC specs, PC's in general, and consoles.
