That's a steal, but no way am I getting up early on BF to stand outside a store (I don't do the BF thing as it is). I'm more interested in the the XL New Galaxy Model anyway.
Dual screen gaming has been great for the games it was made for. I've loved having the 2nd screen for maps and stuff (like for Zelda and Etrian Odyssey games). I figured that Nintendo wouldn't stick with dual screen systems forever. If Switch games don't need it, that's fine.
Since I have an original 3DS, I wonder if this will run well on my system. I may opt for the version on Steam instead. Either way, definitely looking forward to getting around to this game!
Pikmin, Ever Oasis, Mario Sports Superstars, EO V (I hope...EO Untold III hopefully as well), Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns...already at least five games I'm looking forward to in 2017. 2017 is going to be a great year for me and my 3DS!
For the most part, I haven't been interested in models tied to IPs. The only exception was the Animal Crossing 3ds XL. I never got that model, but I thought it was adorbs!
I created a new town a few months back. Stopped playing it after one day. Happy for the people who have the AC amiibo cards. It will take more than a de-weeding to get me playing again, though.
They should do a major press event, followed by a Nintendo direct not long after (giving more intricate details about the system, starting game line up, etc.).
I'm not planning on purchasing an NX, so I'm glad that the 3DS will still be supported for awhile. It's my favorite system to date, with such an excellent library (especially when coupled with the DS library). I'll be playing mine for a long time!
Ever Oasis, Mario Sports Superstars, and Pikmin were probably the top three highlights for me. Tank Troopers and Mario Party look interesting, and I look forward to learning more about them. Pokemon looks more interesting to me with every reveal. Plus we'll hopefully get an Etrian Odyssey V release date soon (that was the only thing that was lacking for me in this direct...coughs and Untold III coughs).
2016-17 is shaping up to make my bank account bleed!
I said balloon fight, Bubble Bobble, and Kirby. It might change once I've played some of the games that I've never gotten to play before, which is a lot of them.
I don't have the amiibo cards, so this didn't grab me. But I'm happy for the people who will get more benefits from the cards that they've purchased already.

Re: Nintendo of America Promises 'Steady Flow' of NES Classic Edition Units Through Holiday Period
That's a relief. Was starting to think that I wouldn't be able to get one.
Re: Budget New Nintendo 3DS Models Announced for North America
That's a steal, but no way am I getting up early on BF to stand outside a store (I don't do the BF thing as it is). I'm more interested in the the XL New Galaxy Model anyway.
Re: Short Hyrule Warriors Video Signals the End of a DLC Era
I just got "Legends" yesterday (it was a lightning deal on Amazon this past Saturday ). Already having a blast!
Re: Review: Fairune 2 (3DS eShop)
I'll finish the first one before deciding on purchasing the second. Good review though.
Re: Feature: NES Mini Classics - Dr. Mario
This, as well as Tetris, were the games that I loved to watch my mom play when I was little...
...apparently my mom wasn't the only mom playing them.
Re: Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima Feels The 3DS Can "Continue In Its Own Form"
While I know that eventually all good things must come to an end, I'm glad that the end hasn't quite come for the 3DS line yet.
Re: Final Starter Evolutions, Gen I Treats and Region Guardians Unveiled for Pokémon Sun and Moon
I really like Primarina. Elegant, yet goofy...not unlike myself.
Re: Nintendo Will Continue To Develop 3DS Software After Switch Launch
I figured this would be the case, and I'm glad!
Re: Poll: Nintendo Switch Delivers Single Screen Gaming - Will You Miss the Dual Screen Concept?
Dual screen gaming has been great for the games it was made for. I've loved having the 2nd screen for maps and stuff (like for Zelda and Etrian Odyssey games). I figured that Nintendo wouldn't stick with dual screen systems forever. If Switch games don't need it, that's fine.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Switch Isn't Physically Backwards Compatible With 3DS And Wii U Software
@Rutana Agreed!
Re: Preview Trailer of the Nintendo NX Confirmed for 20th October
I'm not even planning on getting an NX, but even I am excited to find out what it is!
Won't be watching live (will have hands full with babes and in-laws), but I look forward to the explosion of articles.
Re: The Pokémon Sun and Moon Demo Limits Online Functions on Old 3DS Models
If only I had $200 to throw around...
Re: Review: Gurumin 3D: A Monstrous Adventure (3DS eShop)
Since I have an original 3DS, I wonder if this will run well on my system. I may opt for the version on Steam instead. Either way, definitely looking forward to getting around to this game!
Re: Feature: NES Mini Classics - Bubble Bobble
I remember playing with my brothers. <3
Re: Fairune 2 Releases in North America on 20th October
Recently bought the first. Still need to finish it. Will probably get this one too.
Re: Feature: NES Mini Classics - Balloon Fight
My favorite as a kid!
Re: Weirdness: British Pokémon GO Player Strolled Right Into Stranger's House Looking For Monsters
Friends don't let stupid friends play Pokemon GO.
Good thing this didn't happen in Texas! This story would have had a very different ending!
Re: Video: Snazzy Legendaries Trailer for Pokémon Sun and Moon Has Now Been Localised
@NintyFan Me too!
Re: Poll: Six Months On - How Do You Feel About My Nintendo?
I don't have an account (and apparently I'm not missing out on much), but thank you for making me feel included anyway, @ThomasBW84 !
Re: New 2DS Colours on the Way, Apparently Thanks to Luigi's Freakishly Stubby Fingers
At first I thought the headline said that they were coming out with a "New 2DS"...and I got stupidly excited for half a second.
Re: Review: Mario Party: Star Rush (3DS)
Probably not a day one buy for me. I am considering getting it sometime next year.
Re: Gallery: Pokémon Sun and Moon Starter Evolutions, Demo Goodness, Poké Pelago and More
I think I will pick the starter that is the least popular...I'm a sucker for the underdog.
Looking forward to the demo, hoping it's better than the one for ORAS.
Re: Story of Seasons and Rune Factory 4 Get Price Cuts in North America to Celebrate Sales Landmarks
May try Rune Factory 4. We'll see.
Re: Poll: What Are Your Most Anticipated Wii U and 3DS Games For the Rest of 2016?
I'm excited about a couple of these...but I'm more excited by the 3DS games coming up in 2017.
Re: Random: Mario Is Younger Than His Mighty Moustache Suggests
I guess that explains his energy...I would get tired quickly from jumping and running around as much as he does.
Re: Hands On: A Blast From the Past With Gurumin 3D: A Monstrous Adventure
Looks awesome! Can't wait to play!
Re: Review: Gotta Protectors (3DS eShop)
This sounds way too stressful for me...I think I better pass on this one. :-/
Re: Feature: Five Franchises That Deserve A Fresh Chance on the Nintendo NX
Animal Crossing?
Re: Video: This Studio Ghibli-Inspired Zelda Trailer Is Just Too Perfect
A Nintendo/Ghibli collaboration needs to happen!
Re: Nintendo NX Will "Change The Concept" Of Home Console And Handheld Gaming, Says Pokémon Company President
I would be thrilled if the NX plays 3DS games, especially if it meant more 3DS titles would be published for 2-3 more years.
Re: New Version-Exclusive Pokémon, Pokémon Refresh and More Shown Off for Sun and Moon
So, more fighting monkeys, eh? Poor Mankey!
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Continued Commitment to the 3DS Makes Sense
Pikmin, Ever Oasis, Mario Sports Superstars, EO V (I hope...EO Untold III hopefully as well), Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns...already at least five games I'm looking forward to in 2017. 2017 is going to be a great year for me and my 3DS!
Re: Chase: Cold Case Investigations - Distant Memories Arrives on the 3DS eShop Soon
YEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!
Re: First Impressions: Monster Hunter Stories Borrows Liberally From Iconic Nintendo Franchises
I'm not really into MH, but this looks pretty awesome.
Re: "Slow Living Miniscape RPG" Picontier Coming To 3DS, Gives Us Earthbound Feels
I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
Re: Poll: The GameCube is 15 Years Old - Pick Your Favourite Games
@cmk8 I would love a Skies of Arcadia Legends sequel too...or a port (or both).
Re: Poll: The GameCube is 15 Years Old - Pick Your Favourite Games
Not a bad list...but no 1080 Avalanche? No Wave Race: Blue Storm? No Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles?
Re: Pokémon Sun and Moon Themed Solgaleo Lunala New Nintendo 3DS XL Model Confirmed for North America
For the most part, I haven't been interested in models tied to IPs. The only exception was the Animal Crossing 3ds XL. I never got that model, but I thought it was adorbs!
Re: Animal Crossing: New Leaf's Fall Update Will Handle The Weeding So You Don't Have To
I created a new town a few months back. Stopped playing it after one day. Happy for the people who have the AC amiibo cards. It will take more than a de-weeding to get me playing again, though.
Re: CoroCoro Reveals Rockruff's Evolution & New Ultra Beasts for Pokémon Sun and Moon
So Ultra Beasts...meh, not particularly interested. Still looking forward to Pokemon Sun (got my pre-order in)!
Re: Snazzy Japanese Pokémon Sun and Moon Trailer Showcases Fresh Footage
That trailer makes me want it more.
But does it have Jigglypuff?
Hmmmm....
Re: Gurumin 3D Price Revealed, Free 3DS Theme To Be Included With Purchase
I too will wait for reviews. It looks like something that I'd totally be into!
Re: Talking Point: What Approach Should Nintendo Take With Its NX Reveal?
They should do a major press event, followed by a Nintendo direct not long after (giving more intricate details about the system, starting game line up, etc.).
Re: Talking Point: The 2017 Role of the 3DS Was Established in its Nintendo Direct
I'm not planning on purchasing an NX, so I'm glad that the 3DS will still be supported for awhile. It's my favorite system to date, with such an excellent library (especially when coupled with the DS library). I'll be playing mine for a long time!
Re: Poll: Did the 3DS Nintendo Direct Boost Your Hype for the Portable's Line-Up?
Ever Oasis, Mario Sports Superstars, and Pikmin were probably the top three highlights for me. Tank Troopers and Mario Party look interesting, and I look forward to learning more about them. Pokemon looks more interesting to me with every reveal. Plus we'll hopefully get an Etrian Odyssey V release date soon (that was the only thing that was lacking for me in this direct...coughs and Untold III coughs).
2016-17 is shaping up to make my bank account bleed!
Re: Poll: What Are Your Favourite Mini NES Games?
I said balloon fight, Bubble Bobble, and Kirby. It might change once I've played some of the games that I've never gotten to play before, which is a lot of them.
Re: Feature: The Big Nintendo Direct Summary - 1st September
I thought this was a fabulous Direct! Lots of surprises, which means lots to get excited about!
If there's a poll for what we're most excited about, well, I'm not sure which I'm excited the most for!
Re: Video: Take a Look at More Modes and Features in Mario Party: Star Rush
I'm not typically interested in Mario Party games, but this looks pretty good.
Re: Animal Crossing Mini Nintendo Direct Confirmed for 2nd November in Japan
I don't have the amiibo cards, so this didn't grab me. But I'm happy for the people who will get more benefits from the cards that they've purchased already.
Re: TANK TROOPERS Reporting For Duty On 3DS This Winter
Well, it's not Advance Wars, like I had been hoping. However, this looks like fun!
