I am also want to buy a japanese 3DS, but it means I will MUST buy all of my future 3DS game from Japan. -_-

I don't care. I know how to read and write in japanese, but I don't understand at all. But if I playing games with japanese language, I will able to understand it, but it takes some time. And I am already have KH Re:Coded from japan. :D

Portable games, yes. Also the Final Mix versions of the KH games are JP ONRY as well, so I always have to pirate the buggers. The downside to that is missing out on the English voice cast in games where the English voice actors are better than the JP voice actors. The DS didn't really have this problem because WHAT VOICE ACTING? but eh, 3DS...I mean, imagine playing Disgaea or Starfox in Japanese. That'd be annoying as shit.

I HAVE played Kingdom Hearts in JP, and oh lord Donald Duck is so fuckin' annoying holy shit

If you listen Donald with english voice, it isn't better. This is not a real problem. I like listen Donald with japanese voice, 'couse it is really funny. :D If the game is voice active and the origin is japan, I want to hear on that language. I dunno what's your problem with the japanese language...
Azure_Kite
Shauni, awp is probably one of the last people I'd expect to have an issue with japanese dubbing as a whole, just saying.

I agree with you awp about the DS; having on average ~128MB to make a fully featured game is a little bit of a challenge. I was satisfied when Disgaea DS had the intro voice acted.... It really does depend on who does the dubbing for whom, but at the same time, I don't think there's really been a game I haven't been able to play due to a bad voice actor.

in my opinion, some games that had many English elements won't be as good as English voice on JP voice. . .(like Disney), and most RPG from Japanese and got Japanese elements is better in JP voice, like suikoden tierkreis. . .(their english voice is bad imo) . . .

Some games, yes, but if we speak on KH, japanese and english voice is equal, I think. And the Disney is popular in Japan, so it must to have japanese voice, and they are use that voice, so it is the best, and more suitable choice. So, in the end, both language is good and listenable.

Cave Story 3D trailer!

awp
Cave Story 3D looks nice, but I've played the game so many times. It'd be nice as a downloaded title though. Maybe if it has more content in it I'll be more eager for it, but that was a really good game
Azure_Kite
Holy fuck that looks amazing.
rust45
After seeing that, I may just put that on my gamefly queue. However I'm still really pissed at Nicalis(?) for Cave Story Wii.
mm201
I never got around to playing Cave Story so I'm definitely getting this.
Drakari_old
No 3DS, but if I had one...
anthonyyy0
I bought it the first day and now the price is $169.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- D:<

But being the Cave Story fan that I am (starting with the good ol' original), I couldn't say no. :P

Well, I was playing with Cave Story, but I still not like it. A bit boring for me. :|

mm201
I read about that. All it does is simulate a standard 3DS cart being inserted. It's only good for piracy. :(
...which shows what a huge waste of time all of Nintendo's security is. They claim they're preventing piracy with it, but piracy is the easiest thing to accomplish in such a system, since you don't actually need to defeat any security. The only thing they prevented is legitimate homebrew.
LuigiHann
Wasn't sure which thread to post this in, but it looks like a good chunk of the TWEWY cast is cameo-ing in the 3DS Kingdom Hearts, not just Neku. Also, Tron Legacy.

Zelmarked
Thought about it for the OoT bundle but ehh...I have a Zune HD now which is good enough for my portable media needs. Even has decent graphic in its games.

That OoT 3DS sure looked nice though.

I'm torn. I never liked Kingdom Hearts, but I loved TWEWY...

On the other hand, no 3DS.
awp
This might be the first KH game I've actually been really looking forward to since 2. They haven't had the same kind of impact on me since KH2 and it's getting harder and harder to follow along with it but I'm actually kind of eager for this one. Possibly just the TWEWY bias kicking in, though.

Gonna have to marathon the other six games prior to its release so I remember everything. Actually, Re:Coded was largely inconsequential to anything, so just the first five.
bomber34
I got my 3DS after the Price drop and i love it.
Ok I admit there are millions of crappy games but it is like the wii.
The stuff Nindendo does is cool and the stuff from nameless third party developers are crap.

The starting line up was pretty lame and after that there was this remake time but i look forward.

I recommand the 3DS to all people with internet access lol and Mario Kart fans :3

Mighty Switch Force is also pretty amazing, Whenever i make an awesome puzzle on Pushmo I'll make sure to share it. (Also, Soaprman i think i sent the same reply twice on swap note by mistake, Sorry! Im still learning how it works D:

Added Soapr, rust45, Rantai, and Ekaru so far.

Also, I might look into Mighty Switch Force later today. The soundtrack, from what I heard, is actually rather great, so it's enough to get me to bite.

Added you too. I'm also looking into getting that game, but I'm going to wait to download it overnight since it's like 1600 blocks.

Also, here's an easy Pushmo I made:



Great game BTW, got it today and loving it!

Christmas brought me Super Mario 3D and Mario Kart 7, hell yes. Plus, my brother also got a 3DS gift card so we can use that on some games.

How do you have Tales of the Abyss? Did you get the Japanese version?

Oh, unrelated to that, anybody want to play DOA Dimensions against a noob?

The console is region-locked for 3DS games, I believe, so we have to wait.

Anyone else pressing Power because that was where the Start/Select button was in the DS?

Nope. For some reason I got comfortable with the Start and Select buttons being moved below the Touch Screen, though I'll probably think that's where they are when I play my DS Lite again x.x
Soaprman
No, but I've had friends complain of that. My gripe with them is that they're hard to hit at the same time as A and B to save my game in Link's Awakening DX...

Yeah... It's also a pain to reset games that way...
