The problem for me with DS and 3DS, is what the Switch solved....give me a damn option to play on the TV when I'm home. Even the GB through GBA had means of that. There were too many long and good games that I just don't want to play hunched over on that small screen. If the screen size wasn't a problem for me, it was the how damn cramped my hand would get holding the system. The only time my hands felt better playing a DS system was when I had a 2DS. Not a 2DS XL, but the weird looking 2DS that was cheap, and marketed towards kids. Largely because the design of that thing was actually easier to hold for my large hands. Sadly the screens were on the smaller size for that unit, and it only had 1 speaker so it wasn't ideal beyond the hand comfort.
