So glad they fixed that nasty trigger issue. So many times I've barely touched the L or R trigger and the camera would start. Colours for folders would be great. Hopefully that will happen on the next update.
At first when I heard about it, I thought that it was weird, especially when the first trailer came out with NO game play footage. Now seeing the footage I would buy this game. The question is, will it come over? Who knows. It would cost a lot to localize but as pointed out earlier a million copies would sell just with Pokemon in the title. I look forward to the reviews when it hits Japan.
I remember seeing the posters at Toys R Us for this game and thinking it looked goofy. Nintendo just had to make in an ambassador game that I just had to download. Now I am addicted. I even ended up finding a used copy of WW Touched (with case and booklet - w00t!) at GameStop for cheap and picked that up and will play that after finishing this game. Thanks Nintendo for feeding my gaming addiction.
I was hoping for a more substantial date for Animal Crossing. 2012 is pretty vague. I will wait because I know when it comes out it will be fantastic, but at least give us a proper website with some updates.
Mario Tennis, seriously?! Where the heck is a new Mario Golf?! I loved the GC and GBA versions and would gladly buy one for the 3DS. If they would have done one for the Wii I would have bought it.
The 3DS has great potential, but it needs games that people want to play. I think the new Mario title will help loads. What is trickling out now is meh at best, save for the Nintendo titles. Games help sell the system.
The add on pad is a whole lot of silly nonsense. And unless a game comes out that blows minds and requires people to get it, it will take up shelf space.
All are fun titles. I am another who actually ENJOYED playing Balloon Fight back in the day. My brother and I would have a fun time trying to knock each other out of the sky. All are worth a download, especially for free.
Yay for Mario Picross! I've downloaded it and have played about a dozen puzzles already. When the game started up and the music started up, I went back in time.
That being said, Nintendo is going above and beyond by giving us this. And the games listed so far are great games. They could have done nothing. When was the last time Sony did anything like this?
For those who complain about getting the system before the price drop - you made the decision to do it. No one put a gun up to your head. This system has potential and have already given a lot. I have been frustrated that there is no street date for Animal Crossing, but I remind myself that the game will get release when it is ready and not before. There is still plenty to play.
As for the people who think this is the death knell of the 3DS, I think that is a bit premature. The test will be the holiday season. And I feel that they will pass with flying colours.
And for those who keep comparing the 3DS to the Virtual Boy - knock it off. The Virtual Boy was crap and doomed from the get go. And it got its price drops later than the 3DS.
I will be willing to bet that in 6 months the 3DS will do great business and we will look back and wonder what the whining was about.
I played it at E3 and it was fun. The only thing that I didn't like was that it was the Japanese version and it would give info on the top screen that I could not understand. I plan on getting this title.
This is a great game. I spent hours back in the day on the Super Game Boy completing this game and when it comes to the States (oh it had better), it will be a day 1 instabuy.
Well it is nice to know that some people get it to work. It LAGS when I try to do anything with it. I have had to power down the system to leave Netflix and I have read that I am not the only one to do this.
This is a game that I have preordered for US launch. Glad it got a great review. And I am glad that is can be played at a leisurely pace instead of an edge of your seat pace. My son (soon to be 4) loves the various videos I have found and I look forward to playing the game with him watching. Great review Corbie
I found this used at GS and gave it a try and ended up taking it back. It was meh at best and sometimes the controls didn't even work. Anyone try the sequel to see if it was better?
So far it has been a fun game. The only thing that I don't like is having to hit the X button to bring up my hot keys. I like in HeartGold that everything is there waiting. Is there a way to get that to happen in Black?
Now what about being able to transfer my DSiware that I have now? Is that going to be available day 1 or will I have to wait? At this point I will get the 3DS day one (paid off by trades and a gift card) but if I can't transfer right away, I will just test to make sure my system works and then put it away until the update hits. Otherwise when I do a user transfer to my 3DS from my DSi, any game saves would go away and it would become a new system again anyway. Boy my head hurts.
If it were not for my trades and a gift card, I would not get this on day one. When I read this I did think about cancelling, but with Animal Crossing coming out one day, I might as well get it. Most of the cost of my 3DS won't be coming out of my pocket and I am keeping my DSi.
Animal Crossing is the reason why I have preordered my 3DS. I am a big fan of the series (save for the Wii version). I loved the Cube version and bought the DS version on day 1 and have only missed 2 days of visiting my town. When the official date is announced, my preorder will be placed.
