Should you buy a 3DS or not?
Total votes: 450
Got it. Got SSFIV. Face Raiders is awesome, and I enjoy taking photos of Link on my Table.
The fact that the 3DS costs $249.99 (excluding tax) in my area is absolutely ridiculous, so no. I have a perfectly functional Nintendo DS Lite anyway, and I'd rather save up those ~283 bucks for a new iPod Touch. :3
Got myself one at launch and played around with it.
Took me a while to get used to the 3D but it's really good fun, especially with those cards they give you. I got Ghost Recon with it and, being a fan of Advanced Wars, am having lots of fun shooting things (admittedly only done the first couple of missions so far).
My biggest gripe so far is how it handles DS games, it's blurry. I guess my DS lite will not be collecting dust just yet.

You can disable that if you're okay with having the game letterboxed in the middle of the screen. Just hold start and select as you boot up the game.
I'm having a dilemma over it and the NGP. Siiigh. Which, which.
250 dollars for a launch price does not seem that bad at all to me. Though, the launch titles do seem pretty weak, and every store I've been in has had plenty of units available, so it sure isn't facing the Wii's scarcity problem.
I'm gonna buy it when no one wants it anymore. I'm perfectly fine with my pal the Gameboy SP.
Ahh that is so much better. My thanksNeo@lex wrote:

Paper Mario 3DS, Super Mash Bros 3DS, Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3DS....
Holy shit, that's a great game library!
But honestly, i'll wait half a year longer for the Nintendo 3DS Lite
But if Devil Survivor 3DS comes out sooner than expected... i also want to see Yuzu's 3DS Cleavage...

So, hey guys, release dates. The time between DS releases is a little ridiculous, yes, but it was only a problem with the DSi XL (especially considering the fact that they released info about the 3DS exactly one week away from the US launch of the DSi XL). I'd give it more than a few months. In fact, I'd give them more than a year, at least, seeing how it's a new console with a completely new library of games being released.Wikipedia, DS model release dates, NA/JP wrote:

Also, I like the 3DS as is. I'm going to purchase one as soon as I have the money to.
My, without the Stretching on DS Titles, they look rather small on the screen. That's the change in resolution for you.
Not that I mind. OTO 2 and Okamiden are still fun, either way.

Due to the fact that my DS Lite seems to be dying (flickering screen, sometimes full-blown darkness and a random shut off that made me lose 2 hours worth of Pokemon breeding) I'm going to get one of these sooner then I planned.
I got one about 3 days after the launch! 
Face Raiders is freaking AWESOME! HAVE YOU SEEN THAT SHIIIITTT!
I got Nintendogs + Cats: Golden Retriever and Street Fighter 4. The cute and fluffiness of the dogs (and cats) are GREAT! Street Fighter 4 has great usage with the 3D.

found out today that Cave Story 3D is supposed to exist and it's NIS America's job to get it out the door for Q2
that is even more appealing to me than OOT

I'm not buying that. Ever. I don't like Nintendo or the Nintendo DS or this new 3D fad. I'm waiting for the NGP.
To each their own.
3D EBA go, iNIS. Or even OTO3.

I have one and I have to say it's amazing, the Streetpass system that allows you to meet Mii's of other people and share Puzzle pieces with eachother just by walking past eachother is awesome and a friend and I meet up every day just for that. Face Raiders is fun for awhile but it's not really something you can play everywhere.
The only game I have is Super Monkey Ball 3D and it was over sort of fast so I can't judge on that but Star Fox 64 3D, Kid Icarus Uprising and ofcourse Ocarina of Time look amazing

You should wait till the price goes down and more games for 3ds comes out to
see if you really want it

I havn't heard anything about a Super Smash Bros. on the 3DS, though it wouldn't suprise me if they announce it tomorrow.
Also, (this is just my opinion) I doubt there will be a Nintendo 3DS Lite, I know the DS has been ''remade'' plenty of times too, but the 3DS pretty much already has every one of those ''upgrades'' each new version of the DS got.
The price really isn't that bad, and I think the release games are being underrated. I had lots of fun with Super Monkey Ball 3D and Super Street Fighter 3D, besides that I've seen Pilotwings Resort and it really shows the 3D at its bestIkillforpies wrote:

There's been a serious decrease in Nintendo's profits over the last few years. The decline in the popularity of the Wii and the DS has predominantly affected this. To resolve this they've introduced this 3DS gimmick and have announced the Wii 2.adam2046 wrote:

Also yeah Nintendo likes money. being a company and all you know.
Though I'd rather have Nintendo receive my money than Sony/Microsoft.
When more stuff is released for it, I will get it. 
Because, you know, it's everyone's job to buy every single model of Nintendo handheld. The general market for hardware revisions are those who never owned the older versions or those whose old ones broke down.adam2046 wrote:

I meant that you can pretty much be sure that they'll release another revision to maximize their profits.
Although I have a hard time imagining what a 3DS revision would look like if they release one, since the original DS, Gameboy and Gameboy Advance were giant chunks of plastic and their revisions were like tiny delicate wafers in comparison. 3DS is about the same as the Lite...
A brighter/sharper screen and better battery life would be a nice place to start.adam2046 wrote:

Actually I found the 3DS screen very bright and sharp, dunno why people are complaining about that. But yes a longer battery life is a must, the current battery is pathetic. Honestly that's the biggest reason the hold off from buying one other than the lack of games, it's a huge design flaw.
I heard it was like 4 hours with 3D enabled. That's a hell of a lot better than my DS's battery life of 10 minutes.
Your DS has had a long life ;O_O
Considering that there are 3 screens being used simultaneously during 3D mode, it stands to reason that Battery life would be heavily impacted.
Given the fact that the unit is about the same size as the DS Lite (Mine of which gets around 5-8 hours of life), and has three screens, and improved components pretty much across the board, it seemed obvious to me that we wouldn't be seeing long discharge cycles here.
That being said, There are a few things they could improve, mayhaps even through a software update.
For one, I can't stand the blur that occurs when using a DS Game without Forcing the resolution down. Fair enough this is due to the resolution differences between the DS and 3DS Formats, but it would be nice if they could figure out a way to reduce the blur caused by that.
I also concur with the idea of another level of brightness; it could sure use another level.
That being said, it will be the only thing I'd use for months when they bring out Cave Story, the Wright / Layton Crossover and Devil Survivor.

Using nearest-neighbor scaling on images that are not 1:1 tends to look bad
Try playing Final Fantasy Tactics zoomed out for an example. I believe the Chapter 1 Ramza looks really bad with some sprites...possibly the casting animation. Trying to reduce the sprite resolution causes some terrible pixel overlapping, and I reckon the same would hold true scaling up
Granted, TWEWY used it, and that looked good iirc, so you could be right. I'd have to do some more research

I've tried it in-store and it made my eyes hurt, so I guess I'm one of those few people that can't use a 3DS. Maybe I'll be able to get one after the price drops or nintendo makes a 2DS

You are aware you can turn 2D off? Why do people think it'll only play games in 3D?
I got one for my birthday.
The AR games are amazing, a little FPS laggy if you move too fast though which sucks. You also need a fair bit of light to get them working.
I only have super monkey ball and rayman but they suck. :/
Waiting for Zelda, Dragonquest and pokemanz to be honest.

I'll buy it this month probably. Mostly because Tales of the Abyss are said to come out on it and I want the Ocarina of time. Yeah mostly cuz there games i want for it.
In case you didn't know, the 3DS has an internet browser now. Just have to update to get it. It's kinda hard to type on it though.

I'm soo envious of my friend, who is working for Nintendo Finland and he already has the Ocarina of Time on the 3DS ;_;
Messing around with the e-store now.
I have the Pokedex3D and Excitebike (I'm sure like everyone else with a wifi connection)
I find Excitebike's 3D effects a tad underwhelming, as it also zooms out on the screen, reducing it's impact. Oh well.

I suppose I should have expected a bit less from a "3D Classics" game, but I was hoping that ExciteBike would look more like the ExciteBike visualizer in the 3DS music player. That would have been nice. I think the 3D Classics line will work better with more typical side-scrolling games, rather than isometric ones like ExciteBike.
Got Link's Awakening and Shantae, and a couple of other DSi games. Why did they have to use select+start to load games in the original resolution? Those flat buttons are such a pain to hold down. Any other combination of buttons would have been preferable, or better yet, an actual setting that could be saved. Oye.
The 3D trailers were cool. Looking forward to the new Paper Mario

Well,you need to practice with the 3d,it's normal that the first time your eyes will hurt,but after 2-3 hours,you will see perfectly in 3d!
So,there's no problem if you can't see well the 3d of the 3ds,you just need a bit of practice

also they probably will release a newer and better version of 3ds

price drop of $80 USD coming August 12th

The compensation for us early adopters is 20 free GBA and NES games (50/50 split), BTW. About $50 total was saved over here due to a Target deal anyways. So, 20 free games - all of which are pretty solid first-party titles so far - for $30 is satisfying for me.awp wrote:

Anyways, yes, this was badly needed. $170 is similar to the price of what the various DS models were, so this is a very good price.
P.S. Also, Super Mario 3D Land is confirmed for November, and Mario Kart 7 for December.
I bought the 3ds just for The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of time, was worth the money. If I was still in LA on the 12th august, I would have totally waited to purchase it on that date.
Legend of Zelda has been the most substantial 3DS Purchase I've made so far. It's pretty much had a graphical overhaul (OHGOD TEXTURES) and it includes both the original and Master Quest.
I also got an Ocarina of Time, but no luck playing it, yet.

I plan to get one at that price, but I'm probably just going to play DS games on it for now until Starfox/Cave Story/Mario/Kiddick

I would pay extra 100$ for Camelot to release Golden Sun for 3DS :c That'd made quite a lot people purchase the 3DS I believe.
I'm still waiting for Cave Story. That'll be all I play for some time when it's released.
Well, there's something.Nintendo Australia wrote:
Nintendo Australia plan to offer an exclusive Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program to consumers who have purchased the Nintendo 3DS at the original launch price. The program will enable those Nintendo 3DS owners to download 10 NES™ games and 10 Game Boy™ and Game Boy Advance™ games for free from the Nintendo eShop.
These free games are available to anyone who owns a Nintendo 3DS system and uses a wireless broadband Internet signal to connect to the Nintendo eShop at least once before the price drop on 12 August. These users will automatically be registered in the Nintendo 3DS Ambassador program. The program contains two elements:
1. Starting 1 September, Nintendo 3DS Ambassadors will be able to download 10 NES Virtual Console™ games at no charge and before they are available in the Nintendo eShop to the general public. These games, including Super Mario Bros.™, Donkey Kong Jr.™, Balloon Fight™, Ice Climber™ and The Legend of Zelda™, are slated to become paid downloadable games, but Ambassadors get them early for free. Once the paid versions of the games are posted to the Nintendo eShop later in the year, the updated versions will be available to Ambassadors for download at no cost.
2. By the end of 2011, Nintendo will provide Ambassadors with 10 Game Boy Advance Virtual Console games. These include games like Yoshi’s Island™: Super Mario™ Advance 3, Mario Kart™: Super Circuit, Metroid™ Fusion, WarioWare™ Inc.: Minigame Mania and Mario vs. Donkey Kong™. These games will be available exclusively to Ambassadors, and Nintendo currently has no plans to make these 10 games available to the general public on the Nintendo 3DS in the future.
Just got my 3DS. I'm actually very happy about this purchase.
Ahaha! GBA games yeeeaaah!
Super CIcuit go go go racing mario yeah!

Golden Sun ftw, also hope they release some advanced wars.
The true, albeit obvious, reason for leaving out the GBA slot revealed.
I would recommend it if you want the games. I've tried it and the 3D works well (Which is important when you wear prescription glasses, the other alternatives don't fit very well), but it's really just a gimmick that doesn't add a lot to the gameplay. It is nice to look at, but I personally would prefer higher detail over 3D so I'm going with the PSV when it comes out.
Or I may end up getting both, with that price drop I can probably afford it... Cave Story 3D might be worth that. Would be a shame to waste the XL I already have though, maybe there's a good trade-in option somewhere.

apparently I'm immune or at least pretty resistant to 3D headaches. I played for an hour or so and didn't feel anything. Also dicking around on the 3D camera is neat as long as you don't allow common sense to spoil the novelty of it
I don't approve of Portable 3D Devices. Although it'll be better if it gets shipped to PH bleh.

Initially I got hyped real badly for it, but then it all subsided when the retail prices first popped up. No way in hell I would pay €249,90 for a console that's worth €189 in US currency. The initial list of games didn't please me at all either.
Still not willing to spend my money on it. Maybe once the presumable 3DS Lite comes out... nah, rather wait for the Wii U.

The 3DS is already pretty small - almost uncomfortably so, I'd argue. Very little of the inner surface area is not occupied by screens or buttons
Yeah, it's actually about as small as a DS Lite. It's probably a tad bigger but it still fits into my old DS Lite case.awp wrote:

I doubt they'll do a Lite version specifically, but there'll presumably be a Version 2 of some kind eventually. It's just the way they do handhelds. I do wonder about this one though, just because the 3DS has so under-performed compared to their expectations. I don't know if that suggests a revision sooner or no revision at all, but I imagine it'll have a big impact on their plans one way or the other.
That's not very pretty.
Yes, I buy it already and I and a wonder;) graphics beautifull but the pictures are a little bad and the games you buy them at 50 euros each (that comes to mind issues for the ds 3d r5)
The Nintendo Game Gear 3D
naw man it has the look and feel of a game gear now
Going to wait for KH 3DS to come out and get a 3DS way sooner for that.
Then I might be able to judge... When it comes out, of course.
Needs more Battery Life, not eye-killing quality.
Oooh, Pokemon Rumbles.

If that second stick isn't one big "Yeah, we're planning a new model" sign, I don't know what is.
I'll be interested when the new Mario and Kid Icarus games are out, and so long as Nintendo can keep a good stream of content coming themselves, that should be enough to keep me happy. 2/3 of my DS & Wii libraries are their stuff anyway.

I don't think TWEWY was meant for a sequel anyway.
The game itself was already complete.
That being said, it would be interesting to see how KH will develop the world. Noise-Heartless?
Screw that. I forgot that they don't make original SquareEnix worlds for KH. We'll likely get an Auron.

I already read that he just shows up in Traverse Town here. It would be cool if SE started incorporating some levels based on their better non-FF games once they run out of good Disney movies to use. I still just want some Pixar stuff the most, though.NoHItter wrote:

Just so you know.
Where does DDD fit in the timeline, anyway? Looks like they're using the old (old as in historical circa KH1) model for Sora, yet Riku looks the oldest he's been to date
Probably set in some kind of virtual/dream/virtual-dream world
I hope at least one of these games (maybe not until the real KH3) gets some Muppet cameos. Probably not a whole Muppet world, but a Muppet Theater building would be a nice addition to a Traverse-like world.

3D is set after the events of Kingdom Hearts Re:coded. And the rest I'll put in spoilers:
SPOILER
Info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_He ... p_Distance
Following the destruction of "Ansem" and Xemnas at the hands of Sora and Riku, Xehanort is revived. In response, Yen Sid decides to put Sora and Riku through the Mark of Mastery Exam in order to become full-fledged Keyblade Masters and counter Xehanort's threat...So maybe this game takes place just before the Mark of Mastery and prepares Sora and Riku to it in virtual spaces?
...According to an interview, Nomura said the game will take part, at least partially, on the Mark of Mastery.

Maybe. I seem to be playing handhelds a lot more often, but I m definitely going to wait for a price drop and more games to come out. The only game that I m REALLY interested in is Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor Overclocked. Just not enough good games yet to make it a buy.
So I got the 3DS a few weeks ago and OOT. At first, the 3D effect at the higher settings made me cry, but I got used to it eventually. I still want to turn the device to use OOT's tilt aim, which of course ruins the 3D and makes you see double. Which is a pity, because aiming arrows is so much easier in 3D.
It gets me thinking, Pokédex 3D has faaar too much value invested in the quality of the models to be a stand-alone project. I think we may see a Colosseum or PBR style game sometime down the road on the 3DS using these models. (I doubt the main lineage of RPGs would abandon their sprite art any time soon since they would have done it already if they were going to.)

Have you tried aiming on a stool or other chair with wheels? It's possible to maintain the 3D effect with some skill by turning your entire body instead of the console.mm201 wrote:

Yeah, I turn my head when I look around in OOT. It was natural to me from the start and it didn't even come to mind that I would Not turn my head with the 3DS. And then when a friend tried to moved the 3DS around but didn't move his head, I lol'd at him
It's more an issue when I'm reclining and don't have the range of motions needed.Jarby wrote:

3D is annoying anyway, whenever I've played it for an extended amount of time I had to turn it off because it makes my eyes feel a tiny bit funny and you lose it every 2 seconds.
Also the second analogue stick peripheral is the most pathetic thing I ever did see.

I love my 3DS but again, wait for a couple months. The 3D is fantastic for me actually, I never have gotten a headache and I actually use it a lot when playing Ocarina. (I tried it without the 3D once and it felt like I was missing a heck of a lot) So if you're like me and immune to the negative effects of 3D then get one, otherwise...eh....
OOT has a funny bug where the "eye distance" spontaneously shrinks, causing a loss of 3D. (It's very obvious when you play Zelda's Lullaby on the way into Zora's Domain and it does that zoom-out thing.)
I guess this is a result of porting over an originally monoscopic game to 3D. They made this happen instead of impacting one of the cameras with a wall.

I do a similar thing with Starfox. The real problem for me is that during intense situations, I don't always sit still and will move my head to one side or another and need to dedicate some mental effort into re-aligning myself with the screen.Mianki wrote:

I always keep the 3D on maximum though, it doesn't negatively affect me and I enjoy the aesthetic of it.
most definitely not, I'd rather get a smart phone which does everything on top of playing games
I prefer buying a Bamboo Tablet rather than a 3DS. I want to try out RE:Mercenaries 3 though.
Mercenaries 3D is pretty darn cool.
Up to stage 5 missions, can't defeat the Boss monster within the time limit, though D: D: D:

I hear the saved game can never be restarted.
