The thing I will always miss the most about the 3DS was Streetpass. I made a few friends in collage because we kept Streetpassing each other all the time and eventually met up and starting talking. Not to mention I'd take my 3DS with me on trips to NYC and get hundreds of Streetpasses from people all over the world. It definitely made carrying around the 3DS worthwhile and it's a shame that we'll probably never see something like that again.

It's all good! I wasn't trying to call you out, I also had to double check before I left my comment just to make sure I wasn't correcting you with more misinformation lol

I'm sorry, but this is misinformation. The cheapest games on the virtual console were NES games for $5 a piece, and Switch Online is $20/year, not $20/month. There's plenty of good reasons for emulation, but we don't need to resort to drastic exaggerations to make the point.
