That's true. The press conference mostly introduced it as a multimedia device, which surprised me since Nintendo usually doesn't do that. They mentioned Kid Icarus but otherwise not a lot about the games. Hearing there are going to be great 3D N64 game remakes and other stuff makes me a LOT more interested in this thing.

And hey, I still have an old, phat DS. The 3DS is backwards compatible, so it could also be a great replacement.

You know what, yeah I'm almost certainly getting one

just bought a DSi not two months ago


of course I'm getting one

Paper Mario, Mario Kart, Kingdom Hearts, Star Fox?
Fuck yes I'm getting one.

Nintendo seems serious about trying to incorporate 3D in a manner that furthers the experience rather than just tack it on as a bullet point that adds next to nothing(except seizures) to games like the 3D that Sony and a bunch of movie production studios are going for. While I don't know what 3D will do for remakes like Star Fox 64 and Ocarina of Time, for games developed with the system in mind I'm sure it'll be relevant.

Also I just finished going through Kid Icarus on the NES, and now I'm pretty excited for Uprising. Hell yeah.

As soon as I can grab a 3DS, I'm all over it.

Fun fact: Miyamoto specifically requested that the 3D slider was analog slider, for the purposes of seeing the changes instantly, and to make it more intuitive as opposed to a button or a menu. It was also because everyone sees things differently, so this would help make it more accessible.

I want one of these. Although I haven't seen a mic on it...

i'm pretty interested too - the 3d seems pretty cool, and it looks like there will be a lot of sweet games for it. My one concern is that with the 3d effects built in, there may be a lack of 2d games, of which I am a strong proponent of.

Good thing this is compatible with DSiWare, right?

I don't get the appeal of a mic on a handheld console. My blood pressure rose significantly every time there was a "Now you have to blow into the mic" part in any DS game, especially if I was in public. Sure, it's a cool idea but I just don't think it works well in reality.

Either way, I'm getting this on launch day. Which is something I told myself I wouldn't do again after the Wii. The lineup looks amazing and the 3D looks interesting, although it's not the main allure for me.

We don't know yet. You bring up a really good point, though.

And speaking of "I love you Nintendo but some things you do really piss me off," I wonder if there will finally be a way to transfer stuff from a DS Shop account to a new 3DS?

(or for the Wii Shop channel, but that's for a different thread)

[Mirby]

Since Ninty likes Friend Codes for everything, I'm guessing... yes.

Also, I'm guessing an SD card?

Hey guys, this is a topic about the 3DS! Not the games! Stop getting off topic, it's against the point of threaded discussion. If you want to discuss the games and not the hardware, make a separate topic for games.

Of course, when you do that, you'll get off-topic again by discussing SPECIFIC games, and not games in general, and so you'll have to make separate threads for each game.

And then threads for each feature in each game.

Basically, stop discussing, is what I'm saying. Unless you want to flood gen. disc. with a TON of topics.
