Re: Nintendo 3DS

Reminds me of a game app for the iPad that I saw on Installous the other day. It was a game where you flick up the girls skirt to see the color of her undies. You can actually level her up too......and I don't want to know how.....

BBQ: The 3DS' dimensions are almost exactly the same as the DS Lite

Re: Nintendo 3DS

It looks wider than the DSi. I was looking my DSi earlier and trying to imagine the layout, I have to assume its at least midway between DSi and DSi XL if they're to fit that analog stick up there.

I do have to say that the placement of the analog stick does relieve my concerns about it being there at all. The way handhelds are made its really awkward that that the PSP analog nub toward the bottom of the unit rather than above the D-Pad. With analog you want to have some support on your hands so you can use the analog properly - that or like the controllers you want to add something you can get a grip around - so its kinda feels weird to use analog on PSP.

Plus the 3DS analog is recessed into the system, so you don' have to worry about wearing it down so much. I imagine it just slides like the PSP one, though, right?

Well I know this doesn't show the back (and I'm too lazy to go through all the press kit photos to see if there is a better one) but the edge doesn't seem to look glossy to me.

can't really judge it that well over a camera.

Oh, I get it, it's just that if they sold panels I might buy up to five or seven over the life of a product, depending on the design. As it is, I buy one product and run it into the ground; or mod it in some form. Neither of which profits Nintendo.

Hell, if the panel kits were cheap enough, I might even buy multiples a year just for the sake of keeping it looking spiffy.


Anyone know if 3DS uses that fucking glossy plastic iPod loves that gets streaks and fingerprints the second it's out of the box, and is impossible to ever get right again? It's one of the things I hated most about the DS lite.

by the looks of it a E3, at least what I saw, it was the same design type as the DSi

I love the teal/black 3DS in that pic! After the disgusting crap release colors that the XL had.....

Re: Nintendo 3DS

Sadly, it is a way of trying to sell new units, I was tempted to get a second PSP just for the camouflage green PSP that came with MGS: Peacewalker.

Re: Nintendo 3DS

So is anyone else hoping this is a release color 3DS??

Black and blue? I don't like it, but read someplace or another that all of the release units are going to be two-tone; the ones I saw were black and blue, black and red, and black and gray.

I really wish Nintendo would release these things with interchangeable panel/cases instead of selling five thousand different models which aren't available at release.

for that matter, I wish pretty much all electronic devices had interchangeable paneling.

He's a Japanese guy with a love for Appalachian music, is into gardening and plays the banjo. Gardening in the Appalachian region means the FBI loves to crawl all over that region. I went to college in Boone, NC and it wasn't heard of for the FBI to do busts in that area. Poor hippie kids could never catch a break.

I'm not suggesting Miyamoto smokes weed, but looking at some of his games.... OK, yeah, I think he does.

Loving the new look for Zelda.

Re: Nintendo 3DS

Smash Bros requires analog, D-pad only screws some things (ability to do tilt attacks, ability to do down-airs without fast-falling, ability to do up-airs without jumping, ability to aim side smashes up or down, Directional Influence, and recoveries that make use of all 16 directions.)

The only thing analog's really ever facilitated for me (compared to a D-pad) in any fighter has been tiger knees though.
