I would like to have a custom DS looking OS for the 3DS.
I have never owned a DS, but I really enjoy playing DS games on TwiLight menu++
I would like to have a custom OS menu thing. (Maybe change the settings app to have that DS style, and some other system apps.)
A couple ideas, have a "Digital Apps" button below the cartridge slot.
Keep miiverse and stuff on the top on the cartridge menu,
have a normal clock and a digital clock under it. In the settings maybe add something where you can change it to military time or normal digital time.
Have the last game played on the top screen under the clock area
Maybe have notifications??
Next to the clock, there will be a panel showing what folder you are in, if not in a folder, show alarms.
Im not sure if making a custom OS for the 3DS is possible, but if it is, please let me know how!
(And, im keeping the 3DS OS, there will be a button to return to the normal menu.)
This post is not a order, im just suggesting ideas if anyone wants to make their own.

I do use custom themes, but I would like to have something like custom buttons n' things, again like a new OS. Ive tried seeing if it was possible, but i dont have any luck yet.
First of all, you can just use TWIlight menu for the closes experince.

A custom OS would be hellish to program from the begining. Your better off making a fork of Luma3DS and adding you features into it. So.... do it yourself or make a theme.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
