Why would anyone buy a Nintendo 3DS at these current prices when emulation handhelds are like this for same price?

AYN
>OLED
>1080P
>120hz
vs
3DS
>TN
>Less Than PSP Resolution
>60hz

Because its a used handheld out of circulation., with 2 large libraries(3DS and DS), plus GBC/GBA/GB, and the billion eSHOP ports of arcade classics.
Also the 3D gimmick on the N3DS models are really really nice, especially since nobody has tried to oneup them yet.

Why would you even buy a AYN over anything that could just be in the same form factor as the PSP?

out of circulation doesnt mean jack shit. it sold over 75 million units. there's no shortage. yet the prices are more expensive or same price as this.

also nobody cares about 3d gimmick thats why nintendo abandoned it and sony.

let me ask you this, this handheld can play nintendo switch games and below. but 3ds cant. why bother with 3ds?

There is still reason if they want the touchscreen specific games

I wish they could communicate locally with real 3DS systems, but that'll never happen. I like streetpass too much even though it's nearly dead.

I don't know, but I'm not buying a chink handheld either because I still have my N3DS I bought in 2015

Now that I think about it, these chinkhelds can't even do local wireless between each other in most cases, because their manufacturers don't touch the software side of things at all.

Theres your answer. Want more? Take this as constructive customer feedback.

Most people who wanted a DS/3DS emulation option bought original hardware years ago cause you dumb hacks somehow didn't think of sticking two screens together with a hinge despite having chipsets that were more than powerful enough for DS/3DS and despite the fact that nintendo showed you how 20 years ago. Thats it.

>muh 1080p
>muh oled
Who the fuck cares? DS and 3DS don't have the colour palette or art assets to take advantage of either.
>muh netflix! muh other systems
No, I won't spend stupid money to enjoy a gimped experience on your console whioch can only play DS/3DS well because of form factor instead of just buying another $50 device for that.

Buy an ad you sad, lazy fucks.

I wasted 100$ on a very used pic related as my first DS console experience, realized how clunky it was to use (don't use a large SD card or it will take ages to boot) and now I'm waiting for that gook android clone, hopefully it fulfils my retro gaming needs

Because AYN is expensive as shit and the software support is dire. Like terrible. Nobody on the official sub full of shills even recommends to buy their products any more. Admittedly it looks cool though.

Similarly emulating a lot of DS game is a HUGE pain, because emulating tilt or touch controls are badly implemented. Or the microphone setup.

3DS has games that isn't playable without the 3D function to increase fidelity, and quite a few that isn't playable without gyro or AR

The form factor makes it top heavy compared to a "traditional" PSP style handheld without an extra screen sticking out, so it's more fatiguing to hold after a while. Ok, I'm really nitpicking but...
This is a chink? gook? ripoff as well so the ergonomics are certainly worse than an actual 3/DS and the software support will be awful. Android does not like multiple displays by default and I doubt they've improved it. It's just a bad deal.
$100 gets you a DS and a chinkheld for everything else. $150 gets you a 3DS and chinkheld for everything else. You already have a phone. What exactly is the point of these devices?

If it had 720p screens, a linux based OS and a price point of $150 or less it'd make sense. It doesn't.

>fatiguing to hold after a while
That has nothing to do with "playing the games well", and criticizing its ergonomics is ridiculous considering you're advising to use original hardware that has the same form factor. Dual screen don't seem to have an issue at their intended purpose which is DS/3DS emulation, everything else can just run on the top screen if you feel Android is not playing well with dual screens
>You have a phone
Having a dedicated device will always be better and more convenient than having to rely on external controllers, bloating your phone with more apps and rom folders, and diminished battery life from your phone doing a lot more stuff than just being a game console.

Because that chink handheld is likely to destroy itself due to either cheap parts or shoddy programming.

because everytime a chink handheld comes with an SD card every single review and hobbyist tells you to replace it immediately because the SD card is such a cheap piece of shit that it could just fry itself and brick the system.

Can you not understand that different devices have different use cases? Besides, the post I was replying to was literally advocating for TWO separate handheld consoles, which is still more waste, bloat and consumerism.

There's no need, already gave you good examples as of why a dedicated device is better than using a phone that has worse power/heat management, that still needs extra peripherals to be usable and that literally can't offer the proper form factor for DS/3DS games.

You sound like a butthurt tendie
