The Wii version drove me nuts because I couldn't take it with me when we went home for Christmas, etc. Also, I constantly had to bug my husband to use the TV (as in, "But David, there's an event tonight and I CAN'T miss it!").<br /><br />Really, this game does something to people (including myself) that just ain't right...Bryan Ochallahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256591698209804728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-67049647311033985582011-09-14T08:24:56.695-07:002011-09-14T08:24:56.695-07:00Oh, man, Simon -- you *really* need to get a DS at...Oh, man, Simon -- you *really* need to get a DS at some point. One of the best-ever portables, IMO -- if not *the* best ever. Really!<br /><br />Actually, if you can get a DS Lite, DSi or DSi XL really cheap, that may be the way to go for you, as I've heard some complaints regarding how the 3DS deals with/upscales regular DS games. If those complaints have merit (I sadly don't know), you may be better off playing DS games on the original hardware.<br /><br />Oh, and I'm with you RE: F-Zero games on the 3DS! It's a must, IMO. After passing the series over during the DS and Wii eras, I have a feeling Nintendo will come back to it during the 3DS era, BTW.

Until I'm settled like, career wise or something, whatever that means, I can't lug around so many games anyway. Whilst accumulating more and more. I'm dealing with it. It's a very complicated concept to try and communicate but you get the idea. But it totally sucks! I bought it second hand in Akihabara, had a little keychain from a Japanese family I stayed with..

Furthermore, I had like three years worth of photos on it. And all of that transferred downloaded content from my old DSi. And the system was in Japanese! It's of no use to the person who found it! Why wouldn't they just hand that into the lost and found? What jerks. Sorry I'm just ranting but it's a real shame, seeming as the library and features of the system really are just getting better and better.SUIKAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12218468648024956029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-2440043289972868412011-09-13T12:54:45.487-07:002011-09-13T12:54:45.487-07:00I like that you have a specific month in mind, Mot...I like that you have a specific month in mind, Motherplayer! Why have you settled on July, BTW, if you don't mind me asking?<br /><br />Speaking of July, I think a great number of must-have games will be out by then, so you'll surely have a number to choose from, including the ones you already mentioned.<br /><br />The only thing I really want to see more of at this point are more RPGs. OK, and some more original/unique (i.e., non-sequels) titles, too.Bryan Ochallahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256591698209804728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-28524912138291732072011-09-13T12:36:57.095-07:002011-09-13T12:36:57.095-07:00I'm still waiting til Next July to get one so ...I'm still waiting til Next July to get one so the library builds up. But I indeed do want one. I'm interested in a few titles like the new shinobi game, some mario titles, the devil survivor redux and such.Motherplayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12904671208044717027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-82590361221179411452011-09-13T12:11:01.510-07:002011-09-13T12:11:01.510-07:00Oh, I'm glad to hear you're interested in ...Oh, I'm glad to hear you're interested in Bravely Default. What a gorgeous looking game! <br /><br />I'd like to say I have hope that the Friend Collection/Tomodachi Collection sequel will be released here, but you know it won't. Dammit.<br /><br />As for the pink 3DS, I have a feeling it'll be out here before Christmas. I'm sure NoA wants to get more 3DSes in the hands of Americans, too, and this seems like a good way of making that happen.Bryan Ochallahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256591698209804728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-53503200068345996652011-09-13T12:06:59.611-07:002011-09-13T12:06:59.611-07:00I'll take that reward proudly :P
All of the a...I'll take that reward proudly :P<br /><br />All of the announcements were interesting to me, but I'm really hyped for Bravely Default! Since I loved 4 Heroes of Light and all. Fire Emblem also looked great, and I might finally get into Monster Hunter now!<br /><br />Style Savvy for DS seemed to get a positive reception in the West, so I'm hoping this will mean we'll see it out here, too!<br /><br />It'd also be nice if the pink 3DS came out stateside, since my fiancee now wants it and the region-locking would prevent imports... Though we got other pink DSes out here, so again, hopeful!LottieTwintailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16289107214004806688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-65278300072160612272011-09-13T11:52:10.764-07:002011-09-13T11:52:10.764-07:00You guessed them all, Kamiwoo?

As for what you win for doing so, how about, er, the label of "Most Prescient Gamer of the Day"? :P<br /><br />Which announcements were you most excited by, by the way? Or were you excited about all of them?<br /><br />I'm a bit worried about the localization prospects of Bravely Default and Girls Mode/Style Savvy, by the way. Hopefully I'm wrong and both will make it out of Japan eventually!Bryan Ochallahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256591698209804728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-77187034023349196852011-09-13T11:05:35.781-07:002011-09-13T11:05:35.781-07:00Do I win anything for guessing all five correctly ...Do I win anything for guessing all five correctly before clicking the link? ;)<br /><br />It's a really exciting time for the 3DS, though! It's finally shaping up to be a handheld console that's truly worth owning. I'm psyched!
