how do i get the pixel size of the 3ds on my nintendo 3ds xl?

[nicollo9356]

i had a random thought tonight and i just cant sleep constantly looking for answers. i noticed the 3ds has a sharper screen compared to the 3ds xl since its smaller. the stretched screen on my 3ds xl has been bugging me like crazy, and im wondering if theres a mod for it that allows me to get the same aspect ratio/resolution thing as the 3ds? like how you can shrink your screen for ds games.

Both the normal and the XL model have the same resolution. Of course the pixels are physically bigger on the bigger screen.

XL models don't strech the image.

THANKU SO MUCH FOR ANSWERING

is there a way to get the pixel size of the 3ds on my 3ds xl though?

the pixels just looks so big, the pixely appearance is really obvious

or do i just need to put my 3ds xl farther away from my face : p

No - the resolution is the same on both regular 3ds and XL/LL models, what's larger is the screen (so the pixel size is increased along with the screen size). There's currently (and probably never will be) anyway to adjust the native resolution on the 3ds to get the effect you desire.

If the screen resolutions were different on the two models, and the XL was actually scaling to fill the screen it would probably be possible to force native resolution... but as described, that isn't what's happening.

Yes, hold it further away to make it look smaller. Else get a reducing glass: https://learnhowtoquilt.com/encyclopedia/reducing-glass/.
Or swap with someone who has a smol 3DS and wants an XL.
