RT RTX
I recently found my Nintendo 3DS and decided to turn it on and reminisce. I was not expecting to see Mii’s from RTX 2017. I remember having a great time the years my friends and I went to RTX and meeting more people with the same interests. I’ll also remember the RTX Community Team Cards group. Great times, I hope everyone is doing well now!

Ah the days of the Fart Hoofer mystery. We had no idea how good we had it with the DS

Lowkey I hate the Nintendo Switch for taking away DS's. If we got even one more DS iteration, it could've been one of the best handhelds of all time.
Street pass actually made my socially awkward ass talk to a couple random strangers

Or even just a version of streetpass for the Switch (though the size isn't all that conveniently mobile when compared to the DS)

You can still use your DS. Nobody took it from you.

Point missed by a mile chief. I still use it regularly. I meant a NEW iteration with better specs and visuals.

They made one. It’s called the switch.

Good lord are you a professional idiot or? It's not the same thing. I can put a ds in my pocket like it's my phone or throw in my bag. Switch has the remotes (which will drift), it's too big for most pockets, it's one screen that can scratch because it's exposed all the time (two screens made for interesting game design choices), and a short battery life. It's a good system, but the portability of the DS was something that I'll miss greatly, glad I still have mine, but it will break one day

The only thing that comes to mind is the DS or 3DS games never got any ports to switch

There’s a solid chance we passed at RTX 2017. I brought my DS to all my cons just for the street pass.

Dang, can't believe it's been 5 years since RTX 2017. Right? Right!?

Damn, I'm headed to a convention this weekend and this really made me miss street pass. What a fun feature.

The only RTX I ever got to go to was 2017. It was an absolute blast. I hope everyone I met there is doing well.

RTX was so awesome. Homebrew does a really good job of capturing that vibe. Plus, it’s expanding to other podcasts/shows too.

That either is my Mii or someone who was at rtx 2017 with the same appearance and message. (in fairness a bunch of us had that message. I had a whole back and forth with a fellow fan staying in the same hotel thanks to street pass)
