Bright yellow for the win. I purchased a DSiXL for the sole reason that it came in yellow. I didn't need one, but I had wanted a yellow console since I have been playing games (way back to the NES days)
I use this site for decisions regarding purchases of downloadable games, so the extra info on the games in the eshop doesn't really help me. That being said the 3D trailers will be cool As long as there is loads of good content in the store I will be happy. So any new features that improve developers ability to produce quality product (such as removing size restrictions), I want.
I hope that doesn't mean that players who stop playing are removed because they are not there in the new season.
I remember Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey on N64 had a player with my last name (which was rare and hasn't happened since). Now when he stopped playing and was overwritten in an update, I would be gutted.
Sorry I don't have a more recent example, but you get the drift
the 3DS price has gone up since launch in NZ. At the start the recommended price was $450 so that what the store I got it from was selling it for. Now you can only get it for $490 everywhere.
is there going to be a dsi component to the eshop? If not, is it possible to gift a dsi game from a european dsi to an australian dsi? They are both PAL but belong to different Nintendos for releases.
I think it will be fun and interesting to use the gyro for targeting. But it very good that have the circle pad to fall back on if it goes pear shaped.
I hate the idea of all games being downloadable content. If your console gets stolen and all you have is downloadable content, then you loose everything. If you have retail games, then you at least are left with something.
mario would look nothing like he does if he was created today; it was difficult to make a mouth so they gave him a mustache, it was hard to do hair so they gave him a hat.

Re: Talking Point: Should Nintendo Have Made the 3DS Download-only?
@Skotski
thanks for the retort to jerryo's comment. I was going to say the same thing (but was sleeping at the time)
Re: Talking Point: Should Nintendo Have Made the 3DS Download-only?
Like I said before:
if your digital download only console gets stolen or dies, you loose all your games
If you have physical medium, there is a chance that you will still have the games
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th May 2011 (Europe)
is there going to be a dsi component to the eshop?
If not, is it possible to gift a dsi game from a european dsi to an australian dsi? They are both PAL but belong to different Nintendos for releases.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th May 2011 (Europe)

Re: Review: Where's Wally? Fantastic Journey 3 (WiiWare)
