I could only watch about five minutes of the Sony E3 conference because of this man. It's his voice. It's so whiny. If I had watched another minute there would have been a fist shaped hole in my PC monitor. I'm not so sure he should have made jokes about the PSN issues. An arrogant individual.
@Corbs I'm sorry. I didn't mean for my last comment to sound so arrogant. I enjoy reading the articles on this website as the staff have refreshingly non-biased views and opinions.
I wasn't going to buy this. But since I have read this review and watched the 3D trailer on my 3DS I've changed my mind. I haven't played this before so I'm hoping it is worth it.
SSB is in my opinion massively overrated by the Nintendo community. It's the only Nintendo series that I have failed to fully understand. And I consider myself a fierce Ninty fanboy.
I love the eShop. I've had no errors whilst updating, it has been a very smooth experience.
Having to wait for a download to finish is not a problem in my opinion as I have only had to wait for about two minutes per download.
I do not like the Internet Browser, but I guess to some people it will be useful. I'll continue to use my iPhone 4 and PC for that.
Prices are reasonable, 3D game trailers are fantastic and will help me to decide if I buy a game - after checking out the Zelda trailer I think I'll be getting it whereas before I was going to give it a miss.
I love it when you boot up a GameBoy game whilst holding start or select - the GameBoy border is a nice touch and the 3D effect is subtle and enhances the experience - as does holding L and R whilst playing - classic green screen action!
I've just put my Nintendo 3DS on eBay UK (item number 180673334552), so I will not be playing this or any other game throughout the handheld's life cycle. I just hope Project Cafe delivers, not long until E3.
I want to see a Super Mario 64 esque title for Project Cafe but with an incredible level of detail realism. Water that reacts like water. Rivers, shores with waves, massive lakes. Grass with individual flowing blades. Massive trees, hundreds of branches with thousands of leaves. I want to spend my time staring at the beauty of the world, playing with the physics an sliding down lush green hills in the sun before I even realise that there is an objective. When SM64 launched I could spend hours outside of Peach's castle before even thinking about completing a level.
@20 the 3D effect will never become a mandatory play element, the moment that happens those who cannot see the 3D effect cannot play the game - the Nintendo 3DS is not all about 3D, believe it or not
Also - Project Cafe suggests Nintendo are finally getting on the user profile/online service bandwagon. Not a bad thing at all. I strongly believe that if they release a console only slight more powerful than the current gen, introduce user profiles and an oline service they'll dominate the market once again.
I'm not convinced. I'll probably get it on the Wii VC. Cheaper and more or less the same game, without 3D and polish. I think I have slight OCD about playing games in their original state, and about buying 3DS games that have '3D' after the title. I want original titles. Though saying that I had no problem buying and playing MGS: The Twin Snakes for the GameCube. Perhaps that's because I've played it before. Yeah that's it, I want to play games in their original state before I play the upgraded version. Yeah.

Re: Europe, Expect Star Fox 64 3D on 9th September
I would have preferred for it to be called Lylat Wars 64 3D.
Re: Europe, Expect Star Fox 64 3D on 9th September
Excellent.
Re: First Impressions: Kirby Wii
I can't wait!
Re: Review: SSX Tricky (GameCube)
also, the slowdown that i encountered on the gamecube version of ssx tricky was a massive disappointment.
Re: Review: SSX Tricky (GameCube)
there needs to be an SSX game on the 3DS. NOW.

Re: First Impressions: Nintendo Wii U
the only opinion that matters is our own. but thank you for spending the time to give us your impressions.
it'll be a day one purchase for me.
Re: Rumour: Wii U is 50% More Powerful Than PlayStation 3
I will be happy if Nintendo announces that the Wii U is identical to the PS3 in terms of processing power. Anything else is a bonus.
I think I'm going to explode when I see Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Pikmin and whatever else in HD for the first time.

Re: Fact Sheet: Wii U - 1080p HD confirmed, No BluRay
Zelda HD looks amazing.
Why would the Wii U need to perform any better graphically than that?
You should all let Micro$oft and $ony have their next-gen war, as far as I'm concerned Nintendo are in a league of thee own.
Re: Your First Look at the Wii U Console
Sold!

Re: There's Nothing Sneaky About Snake Eater 3D's 2011 Release

Re: Strap Yourself In for Exclusive E3 Content at Nintendo E3 Site
5pm? Cool. No need to take the day off work then. Pizza and a few cold beers will be in order.

Re: UK Pre-Orders Bag a Gold Sleeve and Poster for Ocarina 3D

I take it all back.

I'll give this a go.
Re: Sonic Generations 3DS Rumours Gain Speed
Can somebody explain to me what Sonic Generations is?
Is it a combination of old games/zones, or a game in itself?
Re: Features: Re-Examining Zelda: Twilight Princess
I found this game to be extremely boring - not what I expected for my first Zelda outing.

SALES SHMALES!
Everyone who purchased a 3DS is loving it! That's all that matters!

WOOHOO!
Re: Another Zelda Remake for 3DS?
I have an idea. How about a brand new Zelda game ..
Re: Rumour: Wii 2 to Cost $350, Support 3DTVs, Out in October
I am hoping for a late 2012/early 2013 release.
I am not hoping for a screen in the controller.
Re: Rumour: Could This Be the Next Nintendo Console?
I think it's funny how most of you think you know what you're talking about but in reality we all know nothing at all.
Re: Hey, Listen, We Have 19 New Ocarina of Time Screenshots
I'm not convinced. I'll probably get it on the Wii VC. Cheaper and more or less the same game, without 3D and polish. I think I have slight OCD about playing games in their original state, and about buying 3DS games that have '3D' after the title. I want original titles. Though saying that I had no problem buying and playing MGS: The Twin Snakes for the GameCube. Perhaps that's because I've played it before.

Re: Rumour: Nintendo May Cut Wii Price to $150 Next Month
If this is true, the successor to the Wii will be announced at E3. No question.

Re: Steel Diver Depth Charges Towards Europe on 6th May
This'll be a launch day purchase for me - I've been looking forward to it since it was announced.
Re: Outbreak of Resident Evil Revelations Planned for 2012
I'm sure it will be worth the wait.
Re: Fils-Aime: Next Home Console Unlikely to be 3D
High definition visuals. Solid online platform with user profiles. 3DS interactivity. Enhanced MotionPlus control.
This is all I want from Nintendo's next home console.
Re: Review: Steel Diver (3DS)
Excellent review. I'll be getting this when it is released in the UK.
