You used to be stuck on a lower firmware on 3ds, not no more though. The scene has made a lot of progress and I doubt at this point there is much Nintendo can do about it now.
As far as the Wii U goes, its run through the web browser and requires no actually modification to the system. Must be run every time though and files for it must be hosted locally or on a server that someone made for it.
I wanted Goku in it. Kid Goku from Dragon Ball, before he got OP. Haha. Ah well, pretty cool mod regardless, I don't think I'll play it just cause it might be like salt on a wound for me.
Looks sicc and it only furthers my point I had made months and months ago.
The name New 3ds is so confusing to a lot of people. Had to explain that it was a new system with the word new in the name. And before they announced the name, I felt it should have been called the Super 3ds, given the button colors and such. Also that name would of given it a good nostalgia factor for the SNES and now with SNES VC, it would have made even more sense.
Ah well, I might get one of these. I like nostalgia now that I'm old. Haha.
Been messin around with it on my phone a bit. Don't wanna do too much since I can't link it to My Nintendo account yet but I really like it and I didn't expect to.
So hurry up, Nintendo! We are waiting (im) patiently.
I totally agree, that middle New 3ds case looks amazing. I'm a big fan of vintage Mickey Mouse and that old style, so I hope that comes stateside. Cause I will get it.
8 outta 10, eh?! I played this on my PSP forever ago and yeah, I was kinda frustrated with it. With that said, I've played the heck out of it on my 3ds like crazy. A pretty good fighter fur sure.
@shard5000 I kinda agree with you. Like most games, there are differences between them. Each has their pros and cons but they are both great games.
I really like this Monster Hunter and I hated the series until I played 4U. I put about 50+ hours into MHX (Thank God for imports and region free) and I loved it. I felt it was 4U with some improvements and new things added. The hunter arts are awesome. Can't wait until I can play it completely in English.

Re: Nintendo Life Weekly: Pokémon Generation 7 Sun & Moon Revealed, EA NX Rumours and More
