Nintendo 3DS

The underboob is the least sexy of all boob perspectives. There isn't anything sexy about it itself.

Jussayin.

Everyone thinks the same things are sexy.

The 3DS looks very promising and also have a few titles that I'm dieing to try out but I'm not really going to believe the hype for it until it comes out in the states. Not really going crazy over with the 3d aspect for it cause I'm more of a retro gaming guy but like I said, I'll see it when I believe it.

 

[theeboredone]

I would honestly just wait for a 3DS lite. Regular DS was so clunky. This one doesn't look so bad, but still.

 

[GwJ]

Nintendo has no plans yet for a 3DS Lite as confirmed by Nintendo heads. Have fun waiting a few years.

I will. No rush in getting a 3DS at launch anyways. Still happy with my DS Lite.

That's what they all say, right? It's a classic business move. Why announce you'll be making a 3DS lite? That would only bring incentive for people to wait.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

An the consumers would Kaioken[sp]

 

[SupaSairentoZ7℠]

What color 3DS do people plan on getting when it comes out? I'm going with blue.

 

[GwJ]

I'm also getting blue.

 

[sakuraZaKi]

I honestly think most would get blue.

Not only is it one of the most common favorite colors, it's the only other non-bland option.

 

[Life]

Wasn't there going to be some kind of funky orange-ish option? Or are we not getting that?

 

[sakuraZaKi]

No idea. I know there was orange, red, and purple at E3 (even the NA E3 Nintendo website had red on there), but they haven't said anything about releasing those colors at all; for both U.S and Japan.

It's either it was just for show, or they would release it later in the year, or later years.

 

[Life]

I kinda wanted an orange one. Looks like they're cutting/delaying it tho. It's fine, launch lineup isn't totally spectacular anyway (although the soon-after-launch stuff is great) and I won't likely have the cash for it anyway soooooooo...

 

[sakuraZaKi]

I know what you mean. I want to get it, but I'm mainly interested in Dead or Alive and the Shin Megami Tensei games that are part of the line-up ('course, there are other games I want to get too, lol...). I'm also not going to spend a full-blown 250 or w/e it was for just one game. Almost everyone and their [insert family member here] doesn't have the money for this. You get the idea.

And if you can tell, I do like the blue one. But I'm sure Nintendo is going to surprise me with something else. Maybe a blue that matches my text, like the DSi blue, xD

I'm picky about my favorite blue, lol.

 

[finalark]

I don't know about the multiple color thing, remember all of those colors the Wii had back when it was called Revolution?

 

[SupaSairentoZ7℠]

I saw they were going to release the charcoal colored one. Dark crimson and that blue one.

 

[Lythium]

I definitely want a darker colour. I have a white Lite, and it shows all the dirt. :I

 

[SupaSairentoZ7℠]

I don't like white anything because I'm one of those people that gets frustrated when a dirt mark or a dirty scratch gets on it and makes it an eye sore.

 

[Teran]

I just got to demo it like an hour ago.

Mind is blown, it really is hard to describe it, so everyone go and get your hands on one it's amazing!

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

^ Is the 3D as good as they say?

 

[F8AL]

Where did you get to demo it?

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

I'm just more interested in how it runs. I'm so skeptical on such cheap 3D, but if it works well the 3DS has an excellent price tag...

I want one now but the launch list sucks.

 

[Teran]

Our equivalent of Gamestop. I was actually really surprised they had an actual 3DS, I just asked about a preorder and he just slapped one in my hand to try out lol.

The technology is anything but cheap. The 3D effects are fantastic, and have the subtlety and wow factor of Avatar (although obviously it's hard to compare to Pandora, but I'm talking about the tech). I played a relatively simple tech demo with boxes, targets, and a dragon (lol), but it was really really really nice, I just can't stress that enough. What excites me is how if something so simple can look and feel so good, imagine what a proper game would be like. Seriously, in terms of immersion and blowing your mind, 3DS walks all over Wii and motion controls.

But it's hard to swallow if someone's telling you that, I know because I wasn't 100% convinced of the praise it was getting from the press, so I suggest you get your hands on one and try it, because really the simple demo on its own will convince you that this is something special. Makes up for the Wii's shortcomings imo hahaha.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

^ Yeah but when multiple people say it's epic it makes you feel good

this is exciting. how was the "viewing window"? by which I mean, how strict was the angle you hold the 3DS at for the effect to work?

 

[Zook]

This is what I'm most curious about, too. I tend to move a lot when I play a hand held console.

 

[Teran]

I have to admit it was a wee bit strict, moreso than I would have liked. I dunno, maybe it's becaus it was my first time with the thing, I hadn't really calbrated it for myself, and I was leaning over a store counter with a little kid grabbing onto my shoulder lol (inb4youenjoyedthat), but yeah it certainly wasn't a dealbreaker or really bad or anything, but from the optimum point, it gave leeway of a bit over an inch each way. So it seemed.

I'm gonna go back one day and try it again lol.

 

[Chill]

Let's hope that kid is still there right?

 

[Vult Redux]

I'm mostly in on this for Paper Mario and Pikmin.

And it doesn't SEEM that those ones will be out at release, so maybe I'll be able to bide my time for a red 3DS.

 

[GwJ]

Neither WILL be out at launch. As for Pikmin, they're not even working on it; don't get your hopes up.

 

[WaffleBlaster]

Sadly not, but Pikmin seems like a game they would do for the 3DS. I (sadly) haven't played the first 2, but if it does come out for the 3DS then it'll be at the top of my list.

 

[GwJ]

There's plenty of games that 'should come out', but if probability went with that, we'd have a better list of games out, no?

 

[F8AL]

[Luigitoilet]

Okay, a new Pilotwings has me really excited. Pilotwings 64 is the most chill game of all time.

 

[M.K]

First-Party:
Pilotwings Resort
Steel Diver
Nintendogs + Cats

This is really sad. If you're going to have a release, maybe garnish the platter with a couple more of your own first party titles instead of trying to make money off the purchase of the console.

Yes I salty, yes I know it's a business maneuver, but still...they can't give me anything besides playing with a cat in 3D?

 

[finalark]

I generally consider it a rule of thumb that it's not worth dropping several hundred dollars on a new console at launch due to a vast majority of the launch library being little more than tech demos. It usually takes a year or two for enough worthwhile titles to come out on the console to warrant a purchase.

 

[Mic_128]

We arne't even getting that much over here. Only Nintnedo title at the Aus launch is Nintendogs'n'Cats. Definitely holding off on buying one, gonna import if US consoles can play games with consoles from other regions.

 

[GwJ]

3DS can play online with any region. It's just that if buy American, you have to keep buying American for games.

 

[Master Xanthan]

With that list, I think I'll wait a while before I buy the 3DS.
