Re: Hands On: We Check Out The New Nintendo 3DS XL

@VeeFlamesNL Haha. I think yours must be fine compared to mine, since I found out it affected battery life I was flicking it loads too.

I would like a New 3DS, but might wait until they do those promotions they have done quite a lot - free game or something when you buy one at the right time. Hope you track that faceplate down, I think its a cool feature

@VeeFlamesNL Yeah I have a 3DS XL and have used the switch lots and lots, had since new. I am thinking one day it is just going to stop working altogether :-/. It feels the same as always, it must be sticking somewhere inside somehow as its been used so much. Also, Red 3DS looks great I agree, I like the look of my dark red DSi XL too

The wifi-switch is a great idea. My switch is nearly broke, takes a few goes before it goes on and off, so it must be a weakness they spotted and opted for this.

I really want to know if the speakers are better / louder than normal 3DS XL, that would be great (like normal 3DS level)

Re: Talking Point: The Time Is Right For A Nintendo Phone

maybe I am weird, but I just want a phone to make calls, texts, browse emails sometimes (not often). Maybe use the calendar. Then I have a 3DS / DS for games and stuff - I carry both around with me. Why the obsession with mobile phones for games? I tried it, hated it, really hated the battery drain when I needed to use it for calls. Its a load of poope - maybe if you are the type who just wants to play Candy Crush while waiting for a bus for about 5 minutes it might be good for that.

Re: 3DS Homebrew Exploit Set to be Launched on 22nd November

I have my DS with Supercard. I only play games that I have bought, I know I can get a ton of illegal roms somewhere. I think getting free roms takes the value out of the game, I am sure I am not the only gamer with strange respect like that. I put a bunch of homebrew on there, but I hardly use them to be honest. I dunno, I enjoy my 3DS enough to not want Homebrew. Though in Europe, would be nice to have Netflix app like US users do, and an ereader thing might be handy.
