The title. We found out how to overclock the Switch so I'm just wondering why we haven't figured it out for the 3DS. The only thing we figured out is how to force New 3DS mode (and pick what mode is forced), otherwise, there is really no OC'ing. Is the 3DS not capable of it yet the Switch somehow is? Just wondering what's going on there.
