Yep, I’ve had similar experiences with handhelds even for games that I own. I could play Metroid Fusion on my SP and get cramps in both of my hands trying to hold it.

Or I could just find a way to run it on the DSi.

You’re going to run into video game preservation issues with or without physical media. I’ve been playing through the GBA/DS catalog and some of the games are selling at prohibitively high prices. Not that I needed a lot of nudging to find another way to play the games…

My most productive usage of Reddit was as a fast, easy way to find good information on pretty much any subject - at least as a starting point. Anything from home DIY stuff, to building a PC, to self-help and fashion advice

It would be wonderful to have a version of Reddit that didn’t have a crazy profit motive and was focused on the users.
