Re: Review: Freakyforms: Your Creations, Alive! (3DSWare)

I'm having a blast with the game. I find the platform part difficult, but then I'm not much into platforms. But I'm getting better and have unlocked more items. It's a lot of fun watching your designs animate in game. It's good fun, entertaining, and makes me smile. That's the point of gaming in my mind.

Re: Nintendo's Latest 3DS Global Release Schedule

Victoria

The games I'm wanting most (and the reason I bought a 3DS) are still TBA. I love my 3DS, but I reallllly wish Animal Crossing was coming up soon.

@LittleIrves - I also wish we could get that Tomodachi Collection. But I don't think it's gonna happen.

Re: Retro Computer Museum Now Has a Permanent Home

@James - I've been reminding my family and friends back 'home' in the U.S. how to pronounce place names around here (Leicester, Derby, Loughborough) .... I've given up. It's more fun laughing at them when they say it wrong.
@Antdickens - Yeah, I know you're in Shepshed .... we're practically neighbours! You guys should let me know when you're heading over to the Retro Museum and I'll try hard to meet you there.

To those of you who don't know it - Leicestershire is pronounced like:
"Lester-sheer" I keep meaning to get to the Retro museum .. it's only 20 minutes from where I live. Seems like the events they hold are always at a time when I'm really busy with other projects.

Re: Review: Alleyway (Game Boy)

I just bought Alpha Bounce, and considering buying this one after seeing the short little video. But after your review, I think I'll stick to AlphaBounce. Thanks.

Arkanoid was one of the best games ever back when I had a Macintosh computer. I'd love a good Arkanoid/break-away type game for the 3DS, especially with the circle pad for playing.

Wonder what 'use your pedometer to help find every step' means? I'd be interested to see what this one looks like.

Re: Nintendo's Art Appreciation UK Tour Kicked Off Today

I didn't think I could draw at all before trying this program. It's given me a lot of confidence in my ability. I really recommend it to anyone who wishes they could draw, or thinks that they can't draw. You may just surprise yourself like I did. And if you have a DSi, I recommend the DSiWare version over the cartridge version because you can transfer your work onto an SD card and then onto a computer. You can't do that with the cartridge version which is a shame.

Re: Japanese Hardware / Software Sales Show the 3DS Needs a Boost

Victoria

Everybody that I talk to about the 3DS says the games look boring right now. There's nothing they want to buy. And I myself only bought 2 games and am thinking of selling one of them. It's hard to sell a system to people by saying the games they want will be out "later" or "the May update will be here soon and then it will be better."
Don't get me wrong ... I love my 3DS. But if they want to sell more units they need to start bringing out the games.
