Also there was a parental lock on it - I phoned Nintendo to get a 'master key' to unlock the settings.
2GB SD card provided as standard - however, it still had pics of previous owner on it - a young child plus other family members. I've since deleted all content.
The seller has been careless and disingenuous in this instance. He could have contacted Nintendo and should have wiped the SD card.
If he'd dealt with all of these issues I would have given 4/5 stars, because the 3DS is in mint condition.
I just hope there aren't any other issues arising.
I'll hold my breath!
The ability to buy old NES games is a great idea and feature and I've used it to buy old school classics such as the original Super Mario Bros and Legend Of Zelda,however the choice of games is a little limited and you wonder why some games are there at all as I can't personally imagine anyone wanting to play them
The camera isn't clear at all and in this day and age could and SHOULD be much better and clearer so minus a point for that.
The 3D function works well but is more of an optional extra than an essential and to me doesn't really add anything to the experience. There is quite a massive choice of games but could be unsuitable for the older gamer such as myself as a vast majority of games (as is typical of Nintendo consoles in general) are geared towards younger gamers. If you want some handheld fun its great, it has a lot of features but still has quite a bit of room for improvement.
What I found with this 3DS was pretty good. Although I regret not getting the 3DS XL. I reckon that with all the new hardware we have these days... it could easily accomplish at least 720p resolutions. As much as it would be a strain on SD cards, you've still got game cartridges... use your brain.
Pro's:
- It has 3D
- User friendly
- Powerful hardware for the time
- Comfortable design
Cons:
- Doesn't support all SD card formats (We need to be able to use anything that's not a FAT format)
- Doesn't have a USB port, I would have loved to record my play through of Pokemon Omega Ruby for my YouTube channel, but it looks like that I can't...
- Outdated hardware
But these are only small things. A FAT SD card is required, and the hardware and USB port are only the tiniest things. It's about the gameplay.
The blue is a fantastic colour and the device is the right size to fit in a trouser pocket. I found the hinge to be a bit loose after a few months, however I was able to get a free repair within 12 months from Nintendo who repaired the device really quickly and sent it back to me. Can't fault the service.
The battery seems to last reasonably well and really does depend what you're using the 3ds for, playing multiplayer mario kart online drains the battery much quicker.
The street pass feature is also a great little freebie, and it's a little treat at the end of the day to see which other 3DSs my device has befriended on its travels and then you can send them out to battle ghosties in a street pass mini-game.
Awesome!
