Nintendo 3DS

[Prometheus]

The impression I've gotten is that, according to gamers, they're not "real games", or some other such playground-level nonsense.


I pay it no mind, personally. It only lessens my view of gamers, not the games. Hell, I'm awaiting the 3DS version of Angry Birds because the Android version here is ads-only, and I want to pay them for the game.

100% agreed. If the game is fun, then why not play it?

 

[Prometheus]

That's how it used to be. It's sad that nowadays people want to segregate people into "real" and "not real" or whatever terms they currently use for it.

 

[DaMummy]

or maybe theres just better games out there, i thought angry birds is a simple puzzling fun, played it for 30min and let it go, never played plants vs zombie, but my guess is that its a tower defense game? and ive always been a fan of tower defense games, pvsz just didnt seem like one of the better ones...

 

[Nintendo]

I'm looking forward to Angry Birds 3DS, which is slated to be released late this year I think.

 

[Blue Protoman]

^ Hey, nothing wrong with Angry Birds or Plants vs. Zombies. They're good games.

Run. Now.

Really, guys, really? I thought you were better than that.

I am. But are others?

 

[Nintendo]

I've decided to re-buy an Australian 3DS next month.

 

[WizardStan]

Decided to start emulating R.B., have you?

 

[Prometheus]

If he was, he'd have to wait for the red one to be released outside of Japan, first.

 

[Nintendo]

^ That's right!

Decided to start emulating R.B., have you?

lol, I've had my Japanese 3DS since Feb now and only sold my Aussie 3DS, because the 3DS seems to be dying when it comes to game releases.

 

[WizardStan]

Well, no emulator is 100% perfect, you know.

 

[Nintendo]

Haha, too true mate, too true.


Anyway, back on topic...


Nintendo Launching Game Boy Advance and NES Games for eShop. Bwah?


and...

Nintendo 3DS Gets Sudden, Massive Price Drop
Boy, those 3DS sales sure fell off a cliff. So much so that Nintendo has instituted one of the swiftest and deepest price cuts for a handheld in recent memory.


The 3DS only went on sale earlier this year for $249, but as of August 12, it'll be slashed all the way down to $169.99. That's...wow.

Next month, 3DS will drop to $170?

 

[moz]

Wow, only $270 in Australia! How good we have it in this great nation!

 

[Nintendo]

Huh? What do you mean?

 

[moz]

Just mad as it was $100 more than the US full price, and it will be the same when the price goes down. Also the PSVita will cost $100 more here as well. It sucks

 

[Nintendo]

So, Vita will be 350 or 450?

 

[moz]

According to ebgames $348, but I understand it'll be $250 in th US

 

[Nintendo]

Ah ok, cool.


By the way, please agree with me when I say that the Aussie 3DS launch price was a little too high...as in it should have been 300 maximum.

 

[moz]

Definately

 

[Nintendo]

Good!
