What is something you wanted as a kid and bought now that you're an adult with disposable income? (leminal.space)

I really wanted a modded Xbox 360 when I was younger because I thought being able to play 'backed up' games and having a custom dashboard was really neat.

I ended up buying one last year to fulfill that childhood wish.

A Nintendo 3DS because I didn't have a console (like ever) and it was cheaper than a switch.

I've only had time to play it a handful of times

Consider putting custom firmware on the 3DS - opens up lots of possibilities and gives you access to pretty much any game you could ever want

That's like the first thing I did. It's a Japanese 3DS so I needed to change the region on it. I still have all the original firmware files if I need to change it back

Awesome! Is it a special edition 3DS or is there a different reason for getting it from Japan?

They were a bit cheaper than the US ones. The seller was based in the US.
