    The original black and white 3DSs had a glitter coating on the transparent shell over the paint, while the second releases didn't have the glitter coating and thus don't shimmer.

    The 10th fact I honestly found to be really interesting. It wasn’t until I played Super Mario Sunshine on SM3D all stars back in 2020 that I realised the Mario font had been updated, and for 10 long years I had never noticed the two different Mario fonts on the Galaxy 2 case.

    Here's some useless trivia I only discovered last week after owning the switch since launch. Going into sleep mode whilst in Notifications, Album or any of the subpages on the Switch menu will give you a unique start screen when woken up depending on where you were.

    • @2-Way_Intersection
      @2-Way_Intersection Před 2 měsíci +1

    Bonus Nintendo fact - NSMB 2 Gold Edition was sold as NSMB 2 Special Edition in Europe and was only ever available as a preloaded game with select consoles, most commonly, later revisions of the 2DS.
    It is otherwise the same as the Gold Edition with the same gameplay alteration.

      @TheMGMfan Před 2 měsíci

      Oh yeah, I forgot about that; I figured that out because I used to use my Pro Controller to play PC games (Nowadays, I use my Xbox Series X controller instead), and when you connect it to PC through Steam, the light around the home button lights up. Still not sure what the actual purpose of it was, though.
