Who else feels like an aspie when they play their 3DS in public?
>>284051609
Only if you give a shit.
That's what the DS was for.
For mobile play in areas not restricted to a home console.
At least your not some autist playing some shitty mobile game on your tablet or phone loudly for all to hear and take notice.
But if your just minding your own biz with your 3DS at low volume or mute then who should give a shit?
If it concerns you that much, seek help.
If you don't look like a fat neckbeard, people don't give a shit.
I played my 3DS in college and they would gather around me to see what I played even if they didn't play games at all.
It all starts as a "Oh what's that?" and ends in a nostalgia talk.
>>284051609

The most public place I'll play it in is my car if I have to sit around waiting for something.
Airplane's aren't that public.
>>284051609
I'm a legit assburger (got diagnosed a week ago) and I don't use my 3ds in public.
>>284051609
I donĀ“t. i just pull out my 3DS then my dick and watch all the lolis circle around it and start sucking me off.
>>284051609
I don't, but I have some magical talent for attracting the biggest personal space-invading mongoloids when I play so I usually avoid it because I don't like people literally breathing down my neck.

I don't give a shit if I'm playing vice city stories on my PSP in public, why do you give a shit what someone thinks while you play your 3DS? that makes you a sperg for caring.
>>284053903
>tfw dad had carpel tunnel and feel like I'm getting it
Fucking pains in forearms and hand, hand also gets a bit stiff sometimes.
Not sure if it's RSI or carpel tunnel
>>284057156
I have the male equivalent of bitch face so I don't have this issue.
I don't even care, I got so many people commenting on mine. and it's just a $1 decal.
I live in Europe and here people dont give a shit about such stuff.
Also we dont have as many neckbeards as you have. Im an arts student, I dress well and I look good. I still enjoy my 3ds and play on the train when Im going to a shoot in the set.
Occasionally I see other people playing too and I get tons of street passes.
So I think this whole "only autists play in public" is just a shitty american thing.
(first time posting in /v/ in a year, love you guys.. But you gotta cool down about what people think about you and embrace who you are)

Fedoras are still fashionable, if anyone actually wore them the right way.
Problem is you have people wearing fedoras with a T-SHIRT AND JEANS for crying out loud. And then they throw a trench coat over that thinking it goes.
Unless you're wearing a good dress shirt and a suit, NOT a TRENCH, we wouldn't have this issue.

Show me one picture where a fedora looks okay.
Note: naturally attractive people not allowed.
I play my 3DS with headphones on the train to and from uni, it's about 1h20m each way
I'm an ausfag, so our trains look like pic related - and since I'm on off-peak trains, I get a full seat or even a double seat to myself (they flip so they can face either way). Nobody cares what you do on the train, people keep to themselves. Some people do work or internet, others watch TV shows or play games on their phone or do all kinds of other shit. I've even seen a couple other 3DSes over time, nobody cares
Plus I get streetpasses at uni, anywhere between 5-10 depending on the day

NIGGA WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING
>>284059835
My gf plays Pokemon games, but she doesn't like it the same way I do.
>>284059835
My gf wasn't even into it but she tried it out with me when HG/SS came out. It's a great game to play with a partner since it's basically designed for trading with the oppostie version. If she's into vidya at all there might be an in.
>> I can tell she looks down on my love for a kid's show
Ok now I'm on her side. The show is garbage
>>284051609
Congrats. You've fallen prey to peer pressure. You have allowed others to rewire your perception, and thus you're a spineless bitch,
>>284059743
Man a N3DS was worth it just for the camera nubbin, fuck that claw bullshit
>>284058038
>>284058505
That's not even a fedora in the picture. That's a trilby.
>>284058234

>>284059530
>ugly, plain, and attractive
>not just ugly and attractive
i don't think you understand how real life works. plain people don't exist. you're hot or you're not. fuck you.
>>284060064
You can avoid the claw by putting the dpad on the touchscreen near your righthand thumb, it isnt hard.
The nub is better but its not really worth repurchasing the 3ds, especially if you have the mh4 limited black LL like I do.
>>284060327
oh, sorry completely misunderstood..
>>284060048
Oh I don't mean I watch the show, fuck that shit.
I guess I meant "kid's games". My mistake.
Might try that out, HG/SS was great and could be good to waste time with.
>>284051609
Approachable looking moderately attractive guy with good hair playing a 3ds in public = normal.
I recently saw an attractive couple playing Magic TCG in public and they looked like people you would want to be friends with.
But if you are ugly or greasy and dressed like someone who should not be outside of their house then ya... then you look autistic.
tons of people at my college play their 3DS.
hell the other day I was playing Pokemon during a boring lecture and got challenged by a guy across the room.
>>284057676
He doesn't even have a DS lite.... he could buy that instead of a fedora and save money.
>>284053745
>touching the screen with your fingers
this is why I'm buying a new 3ds
>>284051609
>going outside

>>284058673

>>284051609
I do but I don't give a shit. People fiddling with their smartphones look just as much like aspies to me. Boring aspies.
>>284057676
I didn't think the fedora had gone far, but when I arrived at University, I finally learned. There are about 12 people in one day wearing a fedora and looking like shit. It really is getting bad.
>>284060373
>>284057338
Might be both. Please take breaks to stretch and use good posture. I've had bad RSI for years from a summer of emulating shit in terrible posture.
>>284061367
Will do.
I've been playing fucking loads of games on my Vita recently, might be that
>>284061346
If I broke its crest, would it hurt?
>>284053745
You can use your fucking thumb on the touch screen with the touch D-pad in the default position. I don't understand why people find it so difficult and have to resort to shit like this.
>>284060914
You are now realizing that this picture is 10 years old.
>>284059743
you're meant to use claw grip to fucking use the d-pad you sperg
not the touch screen
>>284051609
More than most consoles/handhelds, but still, I don't suffer from anxiety so I don't care
>>284061643
You lose movement.
>>284061865
Your right-hand thumb, I mean. Using the touch D-pad almost like you would a second stick.
>>284053745
people really do this? i just refocus the camera on monster
>>284061974
You lose the ability to dodge.
>>284059835
>>have gf
>>says she's into pokemon
>>it's clear she isn't
Thats too bad,
>>I can tell she looks down on my love for a kid's show
Unless you're talking about the early seasons, she's right. Pokemon anime is fucking garbage dude, why aren't you reading the manga?
>>284051609
im an adult, so I dont have a 3ds.

there is never a good reason to wear a fucking fedora, ever
>>284053745
>touching the d-pad on the screen
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE ?
>>284062067
I'm able to dodge just fine, and I can turn the camera during the dodging animation too. You don't have to have your thumb hovering over the B-button to dodge, you're just as quick either way. Like I say, it's positioned like a second stick. No one would say THAT prevents you from dodging.
I don't feel weird playing mine out in public. I will sometimes use it on the train. I used to use it more often when I was in college. I would play in between classes if o didn't have homework or something. Not as much anymore though. I did just get the New 3DS XL last night. I didn't get to do my system transfer until late last night so I didn't get to try it out that much yet but I'll play a nice comfy game of MM and see how I like it. The screens are huge compared to my Zelda edition launch 3DS
>not being a part of glorious micro master race
I don't play it in public because I believe there is a time and place for videogames. Try to have some self control.
You may argue and say "Well then why the fuck did you purchase a portable console?"
For the games, not the portability
Exclusivity is why I purchase any console
>>284063445
I still have mine and play it on the bus to this day. Usually playing the original WarioWare or Dr. Mario/Puzzle League.
>>284063445
My hands are too big to make that comfy for me
>>284063573
I disagree with you, people should be allowed to play what they want without social stigma.
That said; I can't vouch for portability. I spend train time either half-sleep or relaxing before I have to go to work.
The only place I'd play my 3DS is on my couch whilst half-watching a programme, or on a long-ass flight.
>>284063852
This. I either play my 3DS, DSi, PSP or GBA on trains and busses. Don't give a damn what people thing and, actually, nobody seems to care a lot. Oh, and I'm old, btw. So?
>>284063445
Too small...
>>284064179
Depends on where you are really. I live in Scotland and no-one gives a single shit about what you're doing as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else.
>>284064179
I can't play it on busses or trains, I live in a shitty 3rd world countryBrazil:/
>>284064598
German/Belgian here. Yeah, I guess it's quite the same where I live. Anyway, people are much to busy with their little magic phones.
>>284064790
What would happen. You get mugged?
Sometimes I don't feel like being at home and have no money to go out. So ill just hang out after work and play monster hunter or ill go to a nearby cafe. it also gets me streetpasses since I take the bus and walk around.
its feels great and no one cares. Ive even talked to a few people about my circle pad pro.
>>284059296
I play mine on long ride as well. I played mine on the train too and from Montreal-Ottawa this week. No one cares really
>>284064895
Yup, is risky even vidya in shoppings/plazas. shit sucks here
>>284065626
Do what I did when I moved to a dangerous cityGo to an army surplus store, by a solid steel Flare Gun, and a few Shotgun Shells, then replace the pellets with rock salt. I kept a flare gun loaded with rock salt in my jacket every time I left the house. Never had to use it, but I'm pretty sure a chest full of rocksalt would give you enough time to abscond with your goods
What's the point of having a handheld console if you're only playing at home?
I use it when I'm commuting to uni in the train or waiting long times for doctor or another shit.
>>284067195
To play in comfy ass positions. Why limit yourself to a console you bought to only play outside?
I would if I had somewhere to go/if I went outside.
But the weather in my country is indoor weather 360 days a year.
>>284067131
Civilians can not carry weapons here. Yeah, everything sucks
>>284067801
How is a flare gun a weapon?
And rock salt can't even really kill, at most it gets stuck in their skin and burns
I'm afraid of some asshole yanking the top screen in an attempt to steal or be a dick. Even moreso because I just HAD to get that shiny gold N3DSXL
>>284053745
Nigga wtf!
straya fag here
If im waiting for something like a bus or a train, i'll whip it out and play some smash.
i've even played a couple of matches with some kids on a train.
>>284067878
sry, I misread.It's a cool idea
>>284060303
Because you can't help but watch your porn?
I'm only really comfortable playing at an airport gate.
Mostly because everyone is less likely to be a shitty human being when calling attention to yourself makes you feel like you're gonna be called a terrorist there.
If you're so much of a faggot that using a 3ds in public bothers you then download emulators onto your phone
>>284068468
It couldn't hurt to keep something like that in your pocket anon. At the very least you could probably intimidate your attackers into leaving you alone.

This reminds me of a this one time where I was sitting on the bus playing my psp with my headphones in. I had my psp in my lap and this guy seated a short ways away was playing a ds, wearing a shirt that was a little small with an old NES controller on it, playing with no headphones. This 8/10 teenage girl sits down across from that guy. She smiles to me, gives him kind of a funny look. I don't think she saw my psp cuz of how the seating was, maybe assumed I was listening to an ipod.
Anyway, about ten minutes later I'm looking up to see how close we are to my stop and I clearly see the girl lift up one cheek. Unmistakably she was ripping ass. I don't think she made a sound cuz nobody seemed to pay attention but after a few moments the raunchiest, most disgusting stank filled the bus. It was like rotten eggs with vinegar and old garbage-can.
Anyway, these three black guys were on the bus and they started overreacting. She had this smug look on her face, and she was like, "EEEWWWW." And I could fucking TELL she was gonna pin it on this overweight manchild playing his ds. The guy could tell it to, from the look on his face, and he was clearly dreading it.
So before she could finish pinning the blame, I pointed to her and said loudly, "DUDE THAT CHICK JUST SHIT HER PANTS."
The black guys made fun of her and taunted her the rest of her ride, and I'm pretty sure she got off a few stops early. The black guys got off not long after. Me and the DS guy were alone on the bus, he looked over to me and said, "Th-thanks." I nodded to him and held up my PSP, like, 'us gamers huh' and he donned a look of disgust.
"UGH, PSP IS....pretty good too, man."
