occasional reminder: if you have a 2DS/3DS and play DS games or virtual console games on it, if you hold either start or select (both work) while starting up the game, it'll play it in its original resolution instead of scaling up to the larger screen

this works for TwilightMenu++ too (and any DS games started through TM++ will then be in their original resolution), as well as VC injected games made with NSUI
-F/R

I don't know why this doesn't seem to have ever been explained by nintendo

@noiob well it's certainly not easy to realize it's even an option to go looking for it!

It works on GBA and SNES, at least, VC titles as well. I would be surprised if it didn't also work for the other VC systems

@Felthry the 3DS still came with a manual ;)

it works for GB(C) as well, plus you get a border with a nice 3D effect. Makes the effective screen size tiny thouh

@noiob i wonder what percentage of people who bought one actually read the manual though
-F

@Felthry that's alright, it's also not fully serious
