The one on the right is IPS? It looks better! LOL

ZZZZ... Nintendo. Putting IPS on a device without 3D mode while many more have to make do with TN panels :nayps3:

Wonder whether the 2DS top part of the screen is touch enable?

i got show you my 2ds is dual ips no lie lmao i got two tn 3ds i can show you the comparison
No sarcasm in my last post. Just genuine frustration toward Nintendo. My question is genuine too. If the top part of 3DS is touch enable, a mod to make use of it would be cool, to compensate for the lack of 3D mode.

Do you mind if I ask the inside cardboard box is (1) side slide in/out able or (2)you have to remove the whole cardboard box before you're able to take out the 3DS console.

Mine is the latter: you have to take the whole cardboard box out before you can get to the 3DS console.

we can still call it dual ips , sure i got 1 huge screen , but its separated in two.
You can hold your 2ds behind a screen door and say it has 1000 "ips" screens.

No, a little plastic bar covering the screen doesn't magically divide it in 2. :P

The screen itself isn't touch sensitive :P It's an overlay they put on top of the screen. Think stickey bit of touch-sensitive film that's pl. It gets its own ribbon cable and everything. In the case of the 2ds, they only put the overlay on the bottom part of that single display.

Found one today brand new sealed never opened, QW1200, Top IPS and bottom TN, impulse bought it for $199. Don't even need it, just adding it to the collection as its at least top IPS which is all that REALLY matters. still using my dual IPS hyrule as my daily.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
