I've read here on the forum that the early generation DS models don't hold up to the DSi and 3DS on sound quality. So I wanted to compare. Please give it a listen and let me know what you think.
You'll hear a DS, DS lite, and 3DS XL playing DS-10 and Jam Sessions 2.
through my experience, I don't like the hssssss sound that comes out of my old DS lites, So I really do like the quiet and no noise in the background of my 3dsXL. I use that to record my sound.
Glad you liked it! I always use the 3DS xl for the extra screen space (to avoid mistakes). I was always annoyed that the output was so much lower, but hadn't thought about hiss. I'll have to do a another listening and see if I notice it on the older models. Did you make a similar comment on the YT page itself?
