They're there for the same reasons Gamestop let you preorder Zelda Wii. (Yes, Zelda Wii, not Skyward Sword.)
No, not "sucks". More correctly, it's just that you're in the second tier of customers.Holy crap people, reading through this thread is hilarious. It is a game system, and the first version of any Nintendo handheld sucks. In a year they'll be smaller, have brighter screens, come in a ton more colors, and might cheaper. I guess I'm a customer that Nintendo has to try a little harder to impress.
yea but everyone knows theres going to be another zelda for the wii, how the hell do they know anything about contra 3ds?
It looks like there's been some good news on this front. It's looking more and more like my suspicion about the estimate being "worst-case" may be correct.ok the battery live isnt the best but maybe there would be an exta batterie whit maybe 4000 mah insted of 1600 mah..
I guess maybe I'm thinking mainly of the GBA. The first one I had pre-ordered the day that I could from my local game shop and got it the day it came out. IT PISSED ME OFF!!! I waited all excited like you guys and when I got it I couldn't see the screen. How could Nintendo knowingly release such a flawed device? How could a multi-million(billion?) dollar company release such a piece of crap?
http://www.tritonlabs.com/indexflash.htmlSome of the money which went in to developing the Pandora came from us selling the internal light for the GBA (the afterburner I think it was called).
I hear the guy who made that made over a million dollars then squandered it all trying to become a rockstar(!).
It might just be one of those weird internet myths, but I love the thought of it.
If you ask me, two analogue sticks wouldn't be necessary*. I honestly can't think of any game that would require it that wouldn't be clumsy and ridiculous. I've only ever come across one game that even requires such a thing in my entire lifetime, come to think of it, and it was, indeed, clumsy and non-fun...No second analog stick means no deal :angry:
You should read the article about it. It *may* not actually be a total lock - part of it has been described in exactly the fashion of what happens if you try to run software for the iQue DS (the Chinese-market version of the Nintendo DS) on a DS from any other country.Region Locking Means no deal :angry:
Yes there is, because a couple of units have been stolen and documented online (I'll see if I can find a link if you want). That said, technical specifications don't matter a jot anyway, so it's nothing to get worked-up over.No Information on it's CPU and Memory :angry:
:blink: That would be the last thing that I ever would have considered them moving on to...http://www.tritonlabs.com/indexflash.htmlSome of the money which went in to developing the Pandora came from us selling the internal light for the GBA (the afterburner I think it was called).

*Honestly, on my Pandora, I only use the right one as mouse-buttons, which I could easily map elsewhere. :lol:
