since the last few updates, or is it just for me? i have a new persona Q theme on my 3ds and it takes about 30 seconds to a minute to load fully after the system has turned on. anyone else running into these problems, since the last few updates?

EDIT: before anyone asks, i take good care of my 3ds i never drop it. or let anyone get any water etc on it, if i have to take it someplace i make sure its in a sealed bag so that nothing can get to it (water etc) so i don't know whats going on.

it's normal. the 3DS simply isn't powerful enough to handle it all. You wouldn't feel anything with a N3DS

so its just not used to all the new bells and whistles, well its good to know that its just from the system not being powerful enough. guess i'll be trading up once the new systems come out, seeing that they seem a lot more powerful.

yeah. Nintendo keeps developing new stuff but the ppl who have a 3DS are the ones who get the short stick

yeah but either way i still love the system, where else am i gonna get my pokemon addiction from ^.^ also with persona Q on the 3ds i'm pretty happy with my choice, and as a added bonus we're getting xenoblade chronicles so it pays to kinda have a 3ds their getting some decent stuff.

well... xenoblade is a N3DS exclusive tho.
And you're right, despite everything the 3DS still is a great system, especially with the recent development of homebrew and all the library that it possesses. I would only trade my 3DS for a N3DS. nothing else would justify it.

I have gillions of apps on my old3ds plus themes and it loads in about 5 seconds after the home menu first appears.

It sounds like you have a bad/slow sd card.

Click to expand...

it's not like it takes tons of time. but it's still slightly different than before themes were introduced

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
