Topic: 3DS - One Month Later: Your Thoughts?

true.
and if miracles cost only 250$, where would the world go ? (and 40$ everytime you wanna miracle again)

why the anger expressed at anyone who finds any flaws in the system? or is disappointed in the launch games? it sounds as if you are desperate to convince yourselves that you didn't spent $250 for a system that just wasn't ready for launch.

is it expecting a miracle to get ones money worth in today's economy? it is an expensive system which appears to have had problems from the start. the design that lets anything touch the screen is not expected from a company that has done handhelds for years.

perhaps, if we keep our expectations low nintendo will keep the bar in the same position. just a thought.

It wasn't anger expressed at anyone. Annoyance yes, because I think its a bit early to pick apart a system that hasn't even been out two months! More is coming and they have announced that. What launch system has been anything close to amazing when it first came out? I don't think anyone here is guilty of keeping their expectation low by the way. If anything they have been a bit too high when there have been more launch games right now than on a lot of past systems, not to mention most of those systems didn't even have backwards compatibility or extra features. More will be here soon and some of it within less than a month.

I've been happy. My only complaints are:
1.) It's a dust and fingerprint magnet.
2.) Closing the system and opening it again causes the bottom screen and circle pad to make prints on the top screen.
3.) Less than great battery life.

I can live with those minor faults, though. I still love my 3DS very much and enjoy it. (Although the battery life is a little more than a minor fault)

Haven't played it in weeks. Perhaps that'll change once I get DoA.

_{I'm not that stoked about the update either...}

I have owned this for 2weeks now, so it's still fairly new for me.

I enjoy it. I like games that can be played in short burst throughout the day which is exactly why nintendogs+cats was the perfect launch title for me. I love the excitement of streetpass when you see that green light.

The thing I don't really like is that DS games seem to have a poorer quality on the 3ds? It's not too much of a problem considering I kept my pink lite as it's in very good condition still, it's just an inconvenience.

I am very much looking forward to Animal crossing 3ds. Zelda and any Mario games that are released

But overall I think it was worth buying for me as I know It'll get lots of use.

Ah, yes, the somewhat poor quality of DS games on the 3DS. I can't wait to see how Pokemon Black looks on my DSi! So far I've only played it on my 3DS.

I still love it.

Hope the update fixes the resolution of DS games

I am becoming skeptical that Nintendo has actually understood the desire for people to want to join an online community and play games.

The thread should say one week later not a month lol. All I have to say is if you have waited for the 3ds you can wait for the update.

I mean playing the game in full screen without losing the resolution or making it look less blurry without doing that trick D:

@komicturtle92 ah, that can't be done, the "trick" plays the DS games in their native resolution on the higher resolution 3DS screen. it's like getting an old 1024x768 picture and using it as a wallpaper on a 1920x1080 computer monitor, can't not look blurry.

@Waveboy I would never torture myself like that. That's just cruel and unusual. Even though it doesn't have any software, I'm glad I got mine at launch. I used it every day.

Wow I'm surprised you were able to keep yourself from opening it. There are a few things you can do with it before all the hotness comes, you know.

The wait for Zelda is driving me mad.

Try having to wait until August, and in the meantime, watching everyone else proclaim about how truly legendary it is and how they're having such an awesome time playing it.

Ok! I'm watching but honestly my apathy is strong here
