With how wowed I was when I first played BEAT, I really have no doubts about getting this one. I've played only BEAT and VOID, and I didn't like VOID much.
@zezhyrule Lol, even when the English voice acting is sucky, I still prefer it over Japanese voices w/ subtitles. Sometimes, it's so bad that I love it!
Oh, ho, ho! How clever! He's trying to trick us into thinking that $250 is a great deal! That way, those who think it's too expensive will re-consider their thoughts, and actually buy a 3DS! Well played, well played!
EDIT: Honestly, $250 sounds like a great price, especially when considering how high the chance that we'd be paying $300 for it was.
One thing that I'd like to know is how heavy it is. Normally, weight isn't a problem for me, but I've had my pants sag constantly when trying to take my DS on the go. Seeing people carrying 3DSs (in commercials) almost exclusively in bags has made my worries increase ten fold.
@HolyMackerel Ha, you should have seen the first commercial it was used in; all the singers were dressed up like soldiers and mages. If it didn't have that feel to it, I would be lost in disappointment.
FE:NME:HLS has been out in Japan since June with no word of it coming westward. This hasn't even been released in Japan yet, so maybe if we whine about how much we want it, we'll see this game coming to us.
What would have been really cool is a pedometer that charges the 3DS. Then again, you would probably have to walk to the sun and back for one full charge.
I hope that you guys don't buy Pokemon games for their stories. The true goal of Pokemon is forming unbeatable teams, then destroying your friends and people online by using said team.

This is one of those games that you don't regret spending fifty bucks for.
Re: If You Know Dragon Quest Trivia, You Could Meet the Creator
Don't we have a few people here who almost only play Dragon Quest? I guess they have some competition.

It has so many features that they can't even fit a clock in it.

You had me at "explosions".

That's right everyone, cross your stuff with passion!
Re: What Do You Make of This 3DS Prototype?
Being able to switch the positions of the D-pad and Circle-pad would have been ace.
Re: Top Screen Backlight to Blame for 3DS Battery Life
I completely understand... that more-powerful 3DS batteries will sell like hot cakes.

@zezhyrule

Re: Pokemon Designer Explains New Legendary Monsters
I can definitely see the "male versus female" differences when looking at Reshiram.
Re: Plenty of Action in Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D Trailer
Ha, Hunk is the best! If they didn't have him in the game, it would be completely worthless.
Re: First Impressions: 3DS Video Round-Up
Oh, man. That Animal Crossing 3DS is looking good.
If that game isn't bundled with the 3DS by next year, then I will be greatly disappointed.
Re: Why the 3DS Will Not Use an Achievement System
Nintendo hasn't figured out that the best part about the 3DS isn't beating games, it's showing everyone online that you did.
Re: First Impressions: 3DS Virtual Console
Maybe, since the 3DS is launched this year, Nintendo will be more open to suggestions on how to improve the Virtual Console.
Re: 3D Dino Fighting Detailed in Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs 3D
I always wanted to make dinosaurs kill each other in 3D.

Re: Doctor Lautrec Might Not be Your Typical Puzzle-Solving Hero
"rival Professors will attempt to sabotage his mission"
It didn't take Professor Layton long to get angry.
Re: Keep DodoGoing with DodoGo! Robo
I still haven't tried the other two. From what I've heard, they're great, so I might as well check out their reviews.
Re: Hudson Announces 3DS Line-up
@GammaGames
They're going to go with a "sexier and edgier" Bomberman, so I'm expecting an M-AO rating.
(EDIT: This post is a joke.)
Re: There's a Limit on Transferring Software from One 3DS to Another
I accept this news without complaining even if this means you can only transfer once.
Re: 3DS: Including StreetPass, SpotPass, eShop, Mii Maker & AR Cards
@HolyMackerel
Nope, I actually posted that when it showed only 1 comment.
Unfortunately, I'm a slow reader.
Re: Live Text: 3DS Events in Amsterdam and New York
"US: Just froze a unit when switching to game notes through home button while watching a movie. Whoops! "
Great, Jon, you broke it. Now you have to buy it.
Re: 3DS: Including StreetPass, SpotPass, eShop, Mii Maker & AR Cards
Right there-"while listening to their MP3 or AAC music files."
Re: 3DS Hardware Details
I'm slightly disappointed about the smaller screen being smaller than the DSi screens.
Re: Live Text: 3DS Events in Amsterdam and New York
Even though it says the page will update automatically, I still find myself pushing the refresh button repeatedly.
Re: 3DS Hits North America on March 27 for $249.99
OH YES!! I knew that I was spot with the price back in October!
Re: Be the Hip Hop King in Cinemax's Third Rytmik Release
That's what I like about Rytmik, they add new features without changing the layout of the program.
Re: Nintendo Confirms 3DS Will Be Region-Locked
Well, this sucks.
Re: Nintendo's 3DS Events - We Want Your Questions!
One thing that I'd like to know is how heavy it is. Normally, weight isn't a problem for me, but I've had my pants sag constantly when trying to take my DS on the go.
Seeing people carrying 3DSs (in commercials) almost exclusively in bags has made my worries increase ten fold.
Re: Podcast: NLFM Episode 13: Yep, Still Weekly
@DannyBoy
That I do!
@HolyMackerel
Ha, you should have seen the first commercial it was used in; all the singers were dressed up like soldiers and mages.
If it didn't have that feel to it, I would be lost in disappointment.
Re: Limited Edition Pokemon Black and White DSis to Hit Europe
Aaaaaaand we get confirmation that there will be no pre-order bonuses!
Re: DSiWare's Animal Rights Record Takes a Beating on Monday
This lets everyone beat up a few furries.
Re: Nintendo Has "No Plans" to Bring Last Story Westward
FE:NME:HLS has been out in Japan since June with no word of it coming westward.
This hasn't even been released in Japan yet, so maybe if we whine about how much we want it, we'll see this game coming to us.
Re: Monochrome Pokemon Come to Europe on March 4th
It's good to see you posting again, James.
And it's also good to see that our three areas will be getting these games within a close time range.
Re: Roll Up, Roll Up For the UK 3DS Price Rumour Round-Up
Hopefully, one year will make the price drop.
Re: So This is What a Naked 3DS Looks Like
Is this the same guy who stole a 3DS off the production line?
Re: Contents of 3DS Box Revealed
And here I was thinking that we'd have to buy the AC adapter. I doubted you, Nintendo.
Re: Rumour: 3DS will be Region-Locked According to Nintendo
Did I expect this? Yes.
Am I happy about this? No.
Re: More Kid Icarus: Uprising Gameplay Videos
That boss fight looked a bit too easy. I really hope that it's not.
Re: Earn Coins by Walking Around With Your 3DS
What would have been really cool is a pedometer that charges the 3DS. Then again, you would probably have to walk to the sun and back for one full charge.
Re: 3DS Battery Life Revealed
This should boost Dragon's sales three fold. They score a bundle from me buying super-charged batteries for my friends and myself.
Re: Features: Nintendo Life Reader's Choice Awards 2010
I'm okay with this. I may have had more fun on DKCR, but hey.
Re: Features: Nintendo Life's Game of the Year 2010 Awards
I have no complaints.
Re: Drool Over This Donkey Kong Country Returns Concept Art
There isn't a single moment in DKCR where the aesthetics can be ignored.
Re: Features: Vote For Nintendo Life Reader's Choice Award 2010
DKCR for Wii, whoever disagrees is an idiot. No opinions allowed.

@toadettefan
*Yes, but only after beating the Elite Four. Also, they cannot hold items or know HM moves when being transferred.
*There are a few event Pokemon that may be transferred before beating the Elite Four.
Re: Talking Point: Your Nintendo Moment of 2010
My best 2010 Nintendo moment was during E3 when I saw Palutina in the Kid Icarus: Uprising trailer.
