Hello, a few years ago I dropped my 3DS, and for some reason that bricked it. I can still access the sleep menu, and the recovery menu (which didn't work). I'm not sure what to do at this point. The DS is completely unmodded.

It sounds like you might need to open it up to repair the hardware itself. Might want to see if you can send it out to Nintendo to be repaired or find a trusted person who can repair them.
This doesn't make sense. What, exactly, are you doing to access the sleep menu? Does that mean the 3DS still turns on? Can you hear any sounds on the Home menu? Does anything different happen if you turn it on without an SD card inserted?
(People throw the word "brick" around so casually these days! Bricks do not have menus!)
It still turns on with black screens. When I hold the power button the sleep menu appears. Nothing changes with the SD card. It's like everything is normal except the home menu is somehow deleted.
as mentioned, its a hardware failure. seems like your motherboard broke or is disconnected from parts of the nand or other hardware, idk exactly. You need a person just as mentioned above
to look over it and who knows what to do.
The only thing I can think of is the Home Menu Reset key combo documented at https://tcrf.net/Nintendo_3DS#Home_Menu_Reset .
You could conceivably try to mess around with an ntrboot cart, but considering the likelihood that the hardware is kaput, that would probably be a waste of time.

Loved the N64 and the PS1 at the time but Castlevania... PS1 hands down 10,000 times better. SoTN just perfect.

Thankfully the N64 had a metric ton of other fantastic games. I do kind of hate the controller though, I didn't mind it at the time but over the years I have slowly learned to hate it.

CV64 was a good game given it was the first of it's kind, the first 3d project by kobe and was rushed with content cut because of deadlines.+1
