yes I did in fact reach peak Nintendo DS gameplay experience. this is DQ9 on a curved monitor at 16x native resolution in HDR
you may ask "why" but to that I ask "why not?". we aren't the same
I'm going to take this one step further. if you're wondering how, just give me a while
ok I can explain everything
is this the furthest we can go? what about playing a DS game in augmented reality?
ok if you are interested in doing this too, you'll need:
1) MelonDS with OpenGL 3D renderer & at least 4x native res
2) at least a 10th gen intel cpu preferably a 13th gen, or AMD equivalent
3) fairly beefy GPU, probably a 1060 Ti minimum
4) curved monitor
i'm gonna be upgrading my monitor to an oled curved one hopefully. but here are some curved monitor recommendations from high-end to budget:
1) Dell Alienware AW3423DW
2) Samsung Odyssey Neo Quantum Mini LED G75NB
3) Gigabyte M32UC
4) AOC Gaming CU34G2X

Oh no! The eShop is closing down! Wouldn't it be a shame if you let your 2DS/3DS become a paperweight? well fear not, as you have the best retro emulator that is waiting for you to unlock its full potential. hope this infographic is useful
You can even hack your normal Nintendo DS, be it old, lite or a DSi. Or use an R4 card.
You can also still access Nintendo WFC by changing your DNS settings. Set your primary and secondary DNS to this:
