How is the 3DS a Move and Kinect rolled into one? it doesn't have any motion controls, does it? i see you replied before i was able to, O, lol... that said, you won't see me dancing in front of a 3DS; its camera is not the same as the Kinect's. and using it in the same manner as a wiimote/Move controller is about as preposterous. its motion control might be decent for flight sim games, racing/driving games, and possibly puzzle games (like that one that came out a while back that uses the camera to track position and rolls something in-game accordingly, i believe i read a review of a game along those lines), but a WM+? what would be the purpose of that?

that said, all he said was that the 3DS was 'cooler' to him when asked which new thing was the most inspiring. they've already developed games for the Wii, so they've probably already had a taste of motion controls in some form or fashion (yeah, they're not all the same, but the general idea is -- you control the game with body movements either alongside with or as opposed to a controller)... perhaps he made the comparison in terms of which he could conceivably do more unique things with at the moment?

another important thing is where they're coming from. this is 5th Cell, these guys' hottest game is probably Scribblenauts, which is a handheld title (i could be wrong, but i don't recall seeing people get so hot and bothered over Lock's Quest or Drawn to Life, really, though those are also handheld titles). they could probably have a lot of fun creating a 3D Scribblenauts title.

i love the snow/ice stages in DKC1 and 2 both to be honest; the music was the best IMO. i also love that one stage in world 6 of SMB3 with all the coins at the end you have to torch with fireballs in order to get to the secret pipe... lol, half the time i forget that's there :3

are the goodies from each set of devs and linked to certain doors, or has everyone contributed something different for each door? or do you pick a stocking of goodies after beating a level or something? do you have to play all the door-levels in order, or can you pick and choose which you'd like to play? i'm not terribly interested in flash games (mainly because my laptop likes to hiccup because i'm usually running too much crap at once), but i'll struggle through whatever I have to in order to see what Gaijin's got for me D:

@Waltz: because it's somewhat misleading IMO. say a retailer is shipped extra Moves because they sold well in their area during Black Friday, but those extra units don't sell because the market is saturated and the locals already have their units and are pleased with them whatev', Sony still calls those units sold even though they're not in consumers' hands. i'd still like to see actual numbers of Moves actually sold to consumers rather than just shipped to retailers in anticipation of further sales (which may or may not happen until months down the line, y'know).

that said, why does what i think about it matter? i'm just curious is all; i'm surprised you're not curious about the growing Move userbase also.

That is a sale, from Sony's perspective.

not from mine... i think i'd rather see numbers showing how many Moves are actually in the hands of consumers now as opposed to sitting on store shelves. :/

@hulklol: this is why demos are important to the Wii Shop and there should be more of them :3 that way if you don't like it, you didn't have to buy it in the first place.

that said, just because you personally did not like it does not make it stupid. :|

it's really that rare? the gamestop i usually go to had like five copies when i went last night, lol, and it's all the way out on the edge of town -- the ones closer to the mall and stuff probably had copies too. i'm not really interested at the moment, though -- i'll probably pick it up used or something if i change my mind later :3
