3DS owners?

Posted by Toast on Sept. 7, 2011, 9:22 a.m.

Just wondering if there are any on the site. We can have a nice nerdy little discussion!

So the 3DS has been getting alot of stick recently, in fact it's probably the most heavily criticized system since the GameCube. Which admittedly it shares some similarities with.

But I love mine. I got one after the price drop, and even though we now know that the price drop was because they were getting of the original 3DS stock to release an entirely new model, in hindsight I'd still buy one.

Essentially I want a system I can play Nintendo games on with standard, tried and true controls, which doesn't cost much to boot and that's what I found with the 3DS.

There are certainly some design flaws. And yeah they are now releasing a second thumb stick which is obscenely ugly.

(which by the way, where the hell would you plug it in? It must be through the game port?)

But I still do want. I'm sorry but it's true.

Unsurprisingly there's probably going to be some killer app released alongside the new redesign so that everyone will buy the add-on and to claim the Japanese market, and unsurprisingly it looks as though that game is going to be Monster Hunter.

Games to look forward to getting:

1. Super Mario 3D Land

2. Inevitable Pokemon sequel (Full game in pokemon stadium style? Pleasepleaseplease)

3. Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater

4. Cave Story 3D

5. Kid Icarus

I didn't read the comments yet but yeah, that second thumbstick is atrocious. :(

I was considering buying a 3DS, just to play the new StarFox 64. StarFox is definitely one of my favorite games of all time C: so if they massively fuck it up, let me know so i don't buy one.
