I have a phone and a tablet and a 3ds and I rarely pick up the 3ds. Not to say I don't adore it, but most of the games I have I've beaten and I don't have that much commute time. I take my phone and tablet to school every day, and usually I don't feel like throwing in a third device. I did however when I got steam world heist.(😍 Love it) However, the problem with 3ds is this. If I want to get a new game, I have to go to Walmart, pay 60 bucks and get a great game. On iPad, I spend 2-3 bucks at my house, it downloads instantly and I have a pretty good time. Most of these kids don't know what Nintendo is like so they see no reason to change. It's quite sad.
Played the beta for a half an hour, and then deleted it. I am not surprised in the least about this review. Just some of the basic crap that gets dumped into the eshop, covering the gems.
My uncle works at Nintendo and said that the nx is named the Nintendo aardvarkasaurous, the size of a small car, has the operating power of 7000 ps4s, and will launch with legend of maroid: return to corneria. You all believe me right? Right?
Hrmph. Sound rather ironic. Nintendo used carts untill N64 and then used a itty-bitty disk for GameCube. Then they decided to go disk. Now, they want to go crack to cartridges? I see the benefits. For one, when ever I put my Wii u disks in, I'm afraid I'm going to scratch them. My 3DS's carts are pretty durable, however. It'll be interesting to see either way.
Not sure if I like this. A thing I love about my 3ds is that it has long satisfying gaming experiences I can play in the car or at lunch. I wouldn't like it if it only had light pick up and Play games.
I had such high hopes for E3....... I wouldn't be supprised if Zelda U gets pushed off E3..... I need to change my profile picture away from the hype train........
@bro2dragons I wish I had your optimism........ The fire emblem and animal crossing is good news, but everything else kinda stinks. And trump won 5 more states........ IS OUR WEDNESDAY CURSED!??!?!
I love Nintendo and I agree that they need to appeal to a mainstream audience. I would love it if Nintendo made up with third party devs, because, quite frankly, they are kind of driving people away.
And here comes our second rumor this week........ Remember kids, to have a healthy console launch, you must ingest three to five rumors a week. NX rumors are nice and plentiful so eat up!
I think the new consoles are cool and all, but it still makes me sad that new ones are coming. Reason being that I just bought my wii u a year ago, and wanted to get a good 3 years out of it. At the very least, some wii u games will be on sale and I can pick a couple up on sale. Xenoblade chronicles X hopefully
I'm liking what I hear, but I do not like the need for wifi in order to play on the go. I get why this is necessary, but if this is to be a home/ mobile hybrid, there should be some offline features. However, this isn't a deal breaker for me.
I don't mind having a choice about gender, I'm still going to choose link. I just hope that they don't swap genders for other characters, i.e. Make Zelda a man. That would just be weird
