You can install unofficial skins made by other users (or make your own), and ofc you can pirate/emulate any game you want in the GBA/DS/DSi/3DS line. There's other stuff too but that's the main pull for most people. With the eshop shutting down soon, this would become your only way to get new games unless you only buy physical copies.
Well, I definitely didn't pirate any games because that's illegal and wrong.
But I can download a... Thing (not trying to be mysterious, just can't remember the name).... to rearrange the inputs on specific games; for example there's an Ocarina of Time mod that lets you use the L and R buttons instead of the touch screen, and adjust things for accessibility. Other than that, I'm still learning tbh; I haven't gotten very far yet, admittedly. I do have the option to 'rip' the games I own onto the DS so that I don't have to put the cartridge in every time, so that's nice!
(And if I was the sort of person to do something Illegal like pirating, I definitely wouldn't say so on the comm for the sake of the mods. But of course, I don't do that.)
