That saying
'can't teach an old dog new tricks' should be banished into the realms of history alongside religion... My father is proof of that, 10 yrs ago he nearly dropped dead on me, heart attack, now he seemingly has a new hobby every month, as I speak he's somewhere off the coast of Scotland in an achilles 24.... he's 70.
Fair play to you for going so quick the way you're but unless you use the DS3 differently you ain't catching mich, no matter what, and you're still light years away from his times, a second isn't 'close'.
not an attack, just my opinion
