I would love to buy a retail copy of Rune Factory 4 and SMT4, not the eshop only versions for the UK...So, I check some threads on how to disable regional locking and now I have some knowledge on how to play 3DS roms...Not good.
Nintendo, get rid of the annoying region lock or you're just pushing gamers to use exploits and potentially onto rom carts...
I figured about £180 for the XL in UK...I paid £175 for my Aus NN3DXL and I've been LOVING it the past 2 weeks, it's much faster and jumping out of a game to google some questions in the broswer then hopping back into the game is smooth and quick. That nub works much better then you realise, I'm playing the heck out of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and it showcases how well the New 3DS works.
The best N64 game, while Mario 64 was great, BK was superior in every way. It's bigger, more varied, great visuals and music and lots of content on offer, it's a beautifully crafted 3D world.
The problem with Game in the UK is that all their stores I've been to have tiny sections for 3DS, Vita and WiiU and the whole left and right side of their stores are dominated by PS4 and XboxOne, surely they can squeeze in more room for Vita, 3DS and WiiU? Ugh...
Can't use 'space' in an SSID name? So how did The Cloud work? O_o All variants of gamemania don't work too. (GAMEMANIA, gamemania, Gamemania, GameMania)
Bestbuy throws me an error, Nintendo Zone flashes on the homescreen so it must not work for UK ACNL.
I used to listen to the music on the title screen with the cheat, I'm so excited to see the original composer back on board, may get a Wii U just for this.
Just recently got Donkey Kong Country, Luigi's Mansion, Monster Hunter, Fire Emblem, Tales from the Abyss, Devil Survivor Overlocked and Mario Tennis Open. Never had this much fun with portable gaming and I started all the way back with Gameboy Pocket.
Got this for the Wii, brilliant game, lots of fun and variety. Will get this one for free on the 3DS with their So Many Games! Promotion, can't wait. Just a little while longer for Animal Crossing now!
Peter Molyneux USED to make good games...Not anymore, so I'll ignore his silly thoughts.
Also, I can imagine ipads and mobile phones having console like accessories to make games more playable (joypads, speaker systems, hooking to larger monitor....), so in effect they'll be like consoles once again anyways. D'oh. Gaming on an ipad/mobile is very short lived with its crappy battery life, you'll need to be plugged into the plug socket, which defeats the purpose anyways,
The 3DS has really been shaping up, Fire Emblem, Luigi's Mansion 2 and Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate are brilliant recent releases and bolsters the 3DS' already impressive library of games. With more brilliant games on the way, my purchase of the 3DS has been a great investment, I've not been so entertained by a console since the SNES and PS1!

Re: Nintendo 64x64: Space Station Silicon Valley
I loved this game, would hope for a sequel one day, it's gameplay was top notch!

Re: Weirdness: This Walmart Employee Got a Little Confused by a Mario Kart 8 Poster
But look at the box cover art, isn't that upside down as well?
Re: Play: We'll Be Blasting Through Mario Kart 1-7 in a Twitch Marathon
A brilliant idea, always loved Mario Kart, especially Mario Kart 64.
Re: Nintendo Comes Up Empty at BAFTA Awards
GTA5 won several awards. What Nintendo does best is offer games that are pure, they don't need sex and violence to sell their products.
Re: Rune Factory 4 European Release Has Been Cancelled
Sigh...Stupid region lock, I miss my NDS already...

Bah, people like him put off third party support.
Re: Happy 15th Birthday, Banjo-Kazooie!
One of the best games on the N64 and quite easily the best looking game on the N64. I loved it more than Super Mario 64, ah happy times.
