Re: Nintendo 3DS

Bumping this up before we get the big release news sometime around Sep 29th. Rumor is the system is going to release on November 22nd.

Let's hope that isn't true because it will be IMPOSSIBLE to get.

If they get enough produced, that time would be magic for Nintendo. Times like these that preorders are incredibly handy. I'm definetly going to gamestop the day these go up for preorder, because I'm certainly liking everything I see so far. Admittedly, I'm only 90% sure I'm going to get it. The missing 10% is in case I actually don't like it. Hoping to check out a demo model before I purchase it.

Yeah if this is the case I'll just wait until my B-day in April to get one. I'd appreciate it if they released it sometime at the end of October.

Even if you buy it before playing it I'm sure you won't have a problem re-selling it if you decide you don't like it.

That's the rumored date for Japan only, right? Doesn't really affect us unless you're thinking about importing.
 
Re: Nintendo 3DS

Cool. I'd probably import one anyway if Japan get's there's way before we do. No region lock-out for games.

New trailer featuring footage from almost every known 3DS game:

Re: Nintendo 3DS

-3DS Virtual Console for Game Boy and Game Boy Advance titles.

Graphics look great, and I'm digging the charger. :rock
 
Re: Nintendo 3DS

This system is epic. Major graphical difference between some of the games though. Seems a few of the companies need to go back to the drawing board (I'm looking at you Namco racer).
