That's the spirit!!!

As some have already said...just look at other devices out in the market now. The iphone, ipad, kindle fire, 3DS to name a few. These devices change at least once every year. You don't have to buy every single device that comes out with an upgrade or revision. I have an original Kindle Fire, first generation still. I have no need to upgrade to the newest and greatest as my original Fire does exactly what I need it to do. Same with my original 3DS model, it still plays all 3DS games. It's up to the consumer to decide, should I go for this revised model, or wait to see what's coming in the next few months?

@Grimlock_King
My suggestion if I may: Keep your current system in good condition. If you have a job, start putting aside $20 per pay check. By the time the new 3DS comes out here in NA or in Europe, you should have more than enough $$ for it. It you don't work, hopefully you have an allowance. Save your allowance. Your current system can also be traded in to lower the cost of the new 3DS. I think that the new system will be released around June 2015 as was the current 3DS was released in June. That's my suggestion, that's what I plan to do anyways.

I've held off buying any new 3DS system until now. I've been waiting for Nintendo to release a version with the four shoulder buttons and a second circle pad. I guess this "new" 3DS is the model i've been waiting for. So more than likely i'll pony up the dough and get it. I still have my original day one purchased 3DS. It's been good to me and still play on it from time to time.

I think with this New 3DS model we'll be seeing more FPS(first person shooter) games as in Metroid, Call of Duty, Cult County(by Renegade Kid), Dementium(also by Renegade Kid), etc. I'm up for this new system and am anxious to see what new games will be developed for it. I think I'm going to hold off on buying it right away until I get a better view of the "new" types of games that will be coming out for it.

Cool beans, thanks @rjejr
Going to download after work when i get home. No wifi here at work.

@Tiefseemiez
@rjejr
Thanks to both of you's...

How many blocks does it take to download the demo? I can't check as i'm in NA and at "work". Brought my 3DS to work so i can manage my memory space.

Disregard my earlier question on blocks required. Found it online.
Splinter Cell 3D: Blocks required: 10,000+
Ghost Recon Shadow Wars: Block Required: 1,733
I'm going to get Ghost Recon Shadow Wars tonight when i get home.

Does anyone know how many blocks Shadow Wars and Splinter Cell 3D take up on the system for each? I'm thinking of getting one but not sure which yet.

@Itglows
New music?

@All
I downloaded the original to my 3DS when it was on sale for like $2.99. I don't remember seeing anything about DLC being available for it. How can I tell if I have the latest DLC containing the granny levels? Is there a way to check?

@Stratostar
@SetupDisk
Thanks a bunch. Yeah, i know eventually i need a bigger sd card. may get one next time around. I need to look for a good sale. Missed a good one a couple weeks ago for a 32gb for $8.99. Oh well, there will be more i'm sure.

@Stratostar
How many blocks were required for Moon Chronicles download?

To anyone that downloadas Moon Chronicles, can you post the number of blocks required to download the game to the 3DS? I've only got about 1850 open blocks on my sd card. I'll be getting the game tomorrow as i have no money in the bank. Have to wait till pay day. Bummer!

"Don't be too proud of this technological cloning terror you've constructed...but I must say...Impressive, most Impressive."

Ha! Hadn't played my 3DS in about a month and I decided to pick it up today and charge it and play. So happens today that SMB3 is released today too. WooHoo! Perfect timing! Now I just need Moon Chronicles and Cult County!

So with all the Renegade Kid discounts this week, does that mean that the release of Moon Chronicles is imminent? Sure hope so, been waiting for that game.

Oooops, meant Google, not tootle. Ha! Stupid auto correct...or maybe it was just me.

Wowza! That's weird. Just today I was looking at the soundtrack song list in the tootle play store. Can't wait for the update!

The game plays great. I like the fact that you can pretty much do what you want when you want. Now i feel like going to Gamestop and snatching up a copy of GTA Chinatown Wars to have a more current style open world on my 3DS. Hope i find a copy this weekend when i'm out and about.

Got the game last night and i can say that it is just pure retro awesomeness! For those asking about the controls with no CPP support, i can say that you won't miss the CPP at all. It would've been nice to have the option just to see how it would play with the CPP. However, I grew up in the 80's with only the D-pad and the A and B buttons. So i don't really care much for the CPP for this retro goodness. Just my opinion. This new generation of gamers with thumb sticks and circle pads might think different.

Does anyone know how many blocks this game will use up on the 3DS memory card? I have not much to spare.

Def going to check out the QR code to view the screens in my 3DS with 3D on later tonight.

Cool beans.

@SubZer023
Will do. Haven't been playing much lately but will get back into it. Do you have ATV Wild Ride or Mutant Mudds? Both games are from Renegade Kid for 3DS.

@SubZer023
I don't have a Wii U, only a 3DS. Can I still find you with the 3DS Miiverse? I still haven't gotten used to the whole miiverse thing.

I'll check it out when i get home and see if i can find you and i'll follow you once i find you.

@MAN1AC
I know what you mean. When I first heard they were going to do that with Cult County also, i was a bit disappointed. However, being the FPS fan that I am, I'll be getting this first day. I've waited how many years since the 3DS came out for a FPS game? Yeah, first day buy for me.

@Jools
Do we know how many blocks this eShop game will take up? Just wondering as i have only about 3000 blocks left on my SD card.

@SubZer023
3DS is looking good for us shooter fans that have been waiting for a FPS shooter.

Nintendo Life gave Moon DS an 8/10.
https://www.nintendolife.com/reviews/2009/07/moon_ds

I wonder what this 3DS version will get with improved graphics and 3D option. 9/10?

@DerpSandwich
You can always wait till all the episodes are released and then get the game and DLC at the same time. Just a thought...

@SubZer023
Isn't Ironfall a 3rd person shooter? Still looking forward to it regardless if its 3rd or 1st person shooter.

@Gioku
I would think it's DLC as that is what the article states after the first is released. I doubt that they'll release it as individual icons.

I for one am excited for this one. I've been trying to find the DS Moon at Gamestop and can't seem to find it. This is my chance to play the original but with improved graphics. Can't wait. Just hoping they're still working on Cult County as well.

I've bought two other eShop games from RK, Mutant Mudds and ATV Wild Ride. Both are excellent games and i still play them.

Can't wait for Moon on 3DS, Cult County and hopefully a Modern War style FPS. Big fan of FPSs, so anything that Renegade Kid releases as FPS, i'm getting. Went to Gamestop and got Dementium II. Awesome and scary. Now looking for Dementium: The Ward and Moon. Can't seem to find them at any Gamestop anymore. Will keep looking.

When is the big announcement this month on the FPS that Renegade Kid is working on? Any specific day this month?

@All
Remember that there is a demo out in NA for Chibi-robo. I downloaded it last night thinking eh, i'll just give it a quick try and delete. To my surprise, i actually liked it. Going to continue the demo until i complete it, wait for the review and I might end up getting this one. Try it out if you have doubts. Free Demo in the eShop!

Technically, they can still release SMB3 before the year is over. They have till next Tuesday to release it. Technically...just saying.

Regarding SMB3, my wife still has the GBA port on cartridge. Still play it from time to time. So it'll be nice to have it on my 3DS if it ever releases here in NA.

I want Resident Evil Mercenaries discount like Europe got today!

Maybe they release it on Sunday. Isn't that usually when Nintendo releases their major games and even consoles?

Aside from the already made comments for no SMB3, why doesn't NA get the discount for Resident Evil: Mercernaries? I was so ready to get that along with SMB3!!!!! ARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!! Nothing for me this week!

@baba_944
Ah, cool. Thanks.

Just got the game yesterday since it is on sale for $4.50 in NA. How can I tell if the game already includes the 20 free Grannie Levels? Or was that only for a limited time for those that already owned the game? Where do I go to download the free DLC?

Got the eShop card from Best Buy yesterday for $16. Came back home and got Mutant Mudds. Awesome game RK! Keep up the good work! And a thanks in advance for the free DLC next year for the game!

Ever since ATV Wild Ride 3D came out on 3DS, i've been a fan of RK. Even went out and got Dementium 2 so that i could play it. Very good game and pretty scary. @Windy currently holds ATV Wild Ride online tournaments on Saturday nights, check the Online Forums for details. @Jules - any new insight on Cult County? Nothing in the interview on that front. I remember an article earlier this year that yall were aiming for a 2013 release for the first episode. I figure that may not happen anymore since it is the 23rd already...keep up the awesomeness RK!

Need eShp card, then will get this game.

@TruenoGT
Thanks bud, that's gonna help me in saving a couple bucks. I'll wait till then.

I was going to get this day one, yesterday, but wanted to wait for a review. Don't know why I doubted that it would get at least an 8. Getting this when i get home today. I'll have to buy another $20 eShop card for next weeks SMB3 eShop title. My, my, my...

So per this pricing in Europe, how much would that be in NA dollars? 4.99? Or 5.99? Or something else? Sorry, i don't know my currency equivalences between countries.

Nope, nothing, mada. Went out yesterday, the first day of national streetpass day and got not a single streetpass. I'll try again today.

Waiting on Cult County. Hopefully we can get a preview here soon. I know there's already a video out but would like to see more in terms of enemies and such...

WOWZA! Maybe this will pave the way for the 3DS MiiVerse that is still to be released? That'll solve us not having Swapnote/Letterbox. Still though, i'm very upset that they just suddenly stopped the service. I agree with many here that the offenders should've been the ones to get banned, not everyone who uses the service. Even though i didn't reply to most notes, i still checked in everyday to see what Friends would post and pictures they would send. I'll miss Brandon's Nintendo Collectible of the Week. Classic stuff he collected from Nintendo. This is BULL! I'm seriously thinking of trading in my 3DS and thinking of getting a Vita. Firstly, no FPS on 3DS !!!!!! And now services just getting axed! What's next Nintendo?
