Come on OP you at least have to play Pokemon!
Honestly though I don't think it's you, the 3DS just isn't a great piece of hardware. The games are great but when you have to play them on crappy hardware it kind of sours the experience.
Also I'm kind of the opposite of you. I can't stand playing games on my TV because I get too distracted by things going on around me especially if it's in a living room. That's why I bought a desk and a 24" tv for my room that way I'll at least play my PS4 sometimes. I'd much rather play my Vita or 3DS compared to my PS4 and Wii U. I like curling up in bed with the screen close to me and some nice headphones and just getting lost in the game.
