I picked up a 3DS around launch and used it for the better part of a year. The steroscopic effect is pretty nifty and the hardware is solid enough but my issue is that I like the idea of having a portable system moreso than actually using it. I just don't find myself in situations where they're that useful. In the end I put the trade-in funds towards a GPU upgrade which has served me well.
I completely agree there. I hardly use my 3DS as a handheld console. It's more of just a regular console that happens to be handheld. I like the games on it more than the idea that I can walk around with them. Glad you at least tried it before bashing it. Most people hate blindly.
