it doesn't seem like they added enough to make me jump on this right away. i'll get it eventually, but still have some puzzles in pushmo and crashmo that i never got around to.
i hate to play favorites, but i too feel like the 3DS is becoming one of my favorite platforms ever. it's not quite there yet b/c its library is still far behind the sheer greatness of the DS, but it's def. getting there.
nice article. this is interesting b/c this is what nintendo has been predicting all along: that the hardware specs (i.e. graphics) war was going to reach a limit at some point, and that if video games are going to continue to be compelling there has to be something else to draw people in.
i'm pretty excited about this. i live in a fairly big city in the US so i get streetpasses fairly regularly, and i've enjoyed the previous modes. i think charging for what are essentially new games is fair, although the price sounds a bit high based on the descriptions. but it's possible the games themselves are deep enough to make it worthwhile, and the combo price is more acceptable.
i guess there are more DK fans than metroid fans, but personally i'd much rather have a new metroid game, esp. since the DKCR remake just came out on 3DS. oh well.
i know i can't be the only one sick of these pointless rumors. why bother reporting this crap? just wait until the official specs come out, and stop believing "anonymous" reports.
