Next gen DS

No, he just likes to see them talking, listening, maybe hugging retarded kids. He's just very into that stuff. If you know what I mean.

What? No, the point was that she was nodding as if agreeing with someone who just said something stupid, and pretending to agree. Like I was doing with my reply to Demento.

Also its Kari Byron from Mythbusters. Her toast always lands butta siiiiide up.

Alright, so back on track with the thread.

Here's some good impressions of the 3DS:
the 3DS has an analog stick and quite a bit more graphical horsepower than its predecessor, producing visuals that are on par with (or in some cases, easily surpassing) Sony's PSP.

I was one Negative Nancy when Nintendo first announced the 3DS earlier this year. "3D is a gimmick!" I exclaimed. Now that I've gotten a chance to play a few games and see some real-time demos, I am blown away by this technology.

...
I would love to toss in some negative note here, a warning sign for the future, but I don't see a downside to this system. If the 3D gets in the way, an easy-to-access slider lets you turn it off in a flash, and the extra horsepower (Animal Crossing looks a lot better than the Wii version), and smooth slide pad makes it seem like this would work great for a huge variety of game types.

I'm so shocked at how good the 3D effect is that I find myself wondering why it is that no other company has picked up on this technology already.

, I was still skeptical until I held one in my hands and was able to see the 3D screen for myself. Not only does it work, but I think the effect of the 3D is just as good as that on the PlayStation 3, which requires an expensive TV and a pair of glasses.

There's going to be a Starfox 64 3DS? Jesus Christ, Nintendo, how much of my money do you want?
 
The only thing that could hold me back at this point is an absurd price point, and even then I might still pick this up on Day One.

DAY ONE

Honestly. I was barely interested in this yesterday and now I feel almost exactly the same. I need to get a new job.

You could be right, but I don't think so, based on what Nintendo has been doing since the 1980s. The PSP launched at $169.99. I still say the 3DS will launch at $199.99 (US), possibly $189.99.


Alright, here's what I want to see on the 3DS.


1) Waverace 64 3DS (one of my favorite games ever, I just would love to see this game, and considering that Starfox 64 is planned, I see it as a possibility)

2) Castlevania 3DS! (come on Konami, this is your ticket. You never fail to impress, releasing new Castlevania games for the new portables. Let's have it)

3) Dungeon Master, or some kind of First person 3D dungeon crawler. (and bring it to the U.S.!)

4) Mike Tyson's Punch-Out! 3DS (the original home version of Punch Out is still my favorite. Since this was shown at E3, I expect they will bring it. However a new version would be great as well!)

5) Archon, or some other kind of battle chess-like game. I'd like to see 3D beasts and terrible monsters go at it in a strategy board game. Not interested in Pokeman characters, I want some monsters and knights and stuff) You should be able to control the fight and actually fight it out for ownership of the square.


Since the 3DS should have an SD memory slot, and the 3DS plays movies, can it not also be used as an MP3 player? All it needs is a simple menu to choose songs. Would be great if it just used the smaller bottom touch screen to select music tracks! The backlight should be able to be turned off while listening to save battery.
 
****ing give me Super Smash Brothers on a handheld already. Do it.
 
God yes. The online would have to be excellent for it be worthwhile though.
 
I'm liking the design more than the DSi/lite but I still prefer my original blocky DS. It just seems so much more solid than all these flat DS variants Nintendo keeps bringing out. Then again it's also not the final design so we'll see (I don't dig that blue either).
 
Glad to hear some positive hands on impressions. I was almost positively going to be an early adopter before hearing this, but its a no brainer now.

My thoughts exactly. Nintendo has NEVER launched a handheld for over 199 (iirc) so I don't see them breaking that tradition. Digital Foundry even mentioned how they are doing this for cheap, but also with profit almost immediately. This despite what some shit-eating analysts are saying that it will be $249-299. Much of the success of the DS is the price.

Wow man. We are perfectly in-line with these choices. These would easily top my MUST-HAVE list for this system. These are some of the greatest games in existence. I think it was said at E3 that Iga is VERY interested in the next Castlevania being made for the 3DS, so I have no doubt that we will be getting that in the future. The others? Well, let's just hope that other great minds are thinking like us. :D
 
The Wintendo 3DS is supposedly going to be around AU$348.00 according to EB Games, but that's an estimate at the moment, since I don't think Nintendo's released any statements yet. I can see it hovering around the $250 mark though.

$250 isn't that bad, imho. It's only 50 bucks more when first ds was launched.
 
What the ****, Chaos Theory is being ported to the 3DS?

Want.

Anyway, thanks for the link VT2.:)
 
Same, and it's not going to be some shitty 2d remake either.

Where did you see that?

Also, that is a freaking ridiculous line-up. Some of those games are seriously tempting. I haven't owned a single hand-held gaming system since the original Gameboy, but hot damn if I'm not thinking about getting this.
 
The only thing that could make this even better is an incredible Super Smash Brothers handheld (i think I said that before, but I'LL SAY IT AGAIN)
 
If you didn't like Super Mario RPG then you just suck.
 
Has there been an actual announcement for MGS3 on the 3DS? 'The Naked Sample' is very obviously a tech demo title, and just because they're demonstrating tech...

Same here.

UGH why is Paper Mario going back to turn-based combat that's the stupidest thing I've heard in like six months what the **** ughhhhhhhh
Click to expand...
I know, this was the only game that truly interested me, and then I clicked and found out it was turn based, and now it seems there are no games on the system for me. :(

I mean sure, I'll have fun with many of the games on there, but I need more than that.

EDIT: Kid Icarus looks pretty cool. I remember beating that game on the NES. It was one of the best games on that system.

You can play it.. (move the camera) why would they port that much... in fact why would Konami make a tech demo for Nintendo's benefit?

The answer involves money.

But is there some reason to think that it's a dupe, I mean, what about the other 70 games? Do you regularly hear about games coming that never materialize, and were just used as a pawn to create hype? Only Sony does that.

Super Mario RPG was pretty good, but god damn it Super Paper Mario was probably the most fun I've had with my Wii. I mean ****, as far as 2D (or at least mostly 2D) platforming goes, it had by far some of the best and most exciting IN THE WHOLE ****ING MARIO SERIES HOLY **** DO YOU EVEN REALIZE WHAT THAT MEANS. Some of the most rewarding parts of that game could just never happen with turn-based combat (OH MY GOD THE STARS, THE STARS). I was so excited when I heard Paper Mario would be on the 3DS, but oh god now all these crushed hopes and dreams just make me want to down a bottle of sleeping pills ;( goodbye world

But they're not "going back" to anything; the traditional-ish 2.5D gameplay coexists with the Super prefix. Actually I wouldn't be surprised if a Super Paper Mario 3DS was around the corner. I don't think Nintendo is going to ignore the possibility of 3.5D gameplay.
 
I hope this Paper Mario will also come out for the original DS, don't feel like spending money on a new handheld. Paper Mario 64 and the Gamecube one were great.(although I didn't like Super Paper Mario)

Everything else presented was a tech-demo version of some prospective title, not the title itself. With a name like 'Naked Sample' or whatever, it's hardly out of the realms of speculation that Konami wanted to whack something together out of easily available existing assets to demonstrate that they are working on something similar in the long term. Using the very last boss battle to demonstrate an upcoming game seems slightly off to me, even if it's a remake.

Not saying there isn't a Metal Gear Solid 3 on the way for the 3DS. But there hasn't been an announcement that there is.
 
Resident Evil: Revelations looked damn fine, I wonder if that was in-engine(some of it anyway), sure looked like it!
 
Capcom are saying it's realtime. I want an old school RE with zombie arms coming out of the screen /o\
 
That'd be sweet indeed, whilst I did enjoy RE4 and RE5, they didn't scare me and thrill me like REmake on the GameCube did.
