Are you looking forward to the Nintendo 3DS?
 

It's launching in March, do you want one?

I do, It's looking rather good and the focus on hardcore games again is long overdue. I think the current list of games looks a bit Port/Remake heavy but there's a fair few interesting titles to balance it out.

paper mario and resident evil :amazed::amazed::amazed:

****** No.

It's the biggest load of bollocks ever, there isn't going to be that big a difference.
Do Nintendo really expect people to go from buying these stupid DS Lite things, to upgrading to a DSi and then to a DSi 'XL' for the most pointless reason and then a few months later, buy this bull and pay for 3D Games?

It's a joke.

They're money grabbing bastards really.

They need to stop with releasing a new DS every 3 months and get in contact with Sega and start working on a plan to get these 'Men's Bathroom Toilet' games out in the UK as soon as possible.

There's a stack of differences, improved graphics, Online features and abilities akin to consoles, a gamelist with huge potential. You're just writing it off when you know nothing about it.

Resident Evil Revelations is a proper horror game too, imagine RE4-5's control scheme with the earlier RE's atmosphere. It's apparently meant to be quite scary.

Pat is stuck in the old days.

He can not change.

He will be Left behind.

Yes, I think it will be great, I don't think it is good for Nintendo to have so many similar consoles but the 3DS looks as though it will be amazing. :love:

You are so much better than Pat

Na, much prefer XBOX can't stand these little handheld devices.

The thing with the 3DS is that it's a next gen console, not an upgrade. It's not like the DSi was to the DS Lite for example. It's like the Xbox to the Xbox 360.

I never bought into the upgrades, I've only ever had a DS lite and that's the one I stuck with.

this probably means there will be no wii2 until 2012 :bawling:

*dies*

Thanks Arista, so are you.

Never heard of it...so nope.

Wow what do you know. Paddy went on a huge rant about something he is cluleless about.

If the 3DS is anything to go by though it'll be worth the wait, the DS marked the beginning of Nintendo's dive into the casual market so it's not a bad idea to think that the 3DS' focus on hardcore games is a sign of things to come with the Wii2. Nintendo tends to link their portables and consoles together so I definitely think we'll see a more hardcore/mature repertoire of games for the Wii2.

i saw this video on IGN ages ago it was like a projector thing but you could interact with the projections, and somebody said that is what the wii2 is going to be

looks epic :amazed:

I'll be surprised if they don't utilise 3D in some way since both the DS & Wii shared the whole physical controls thing with the touchscreen and motion controls. If I'm honest though I'm not too bothered about the 3D, it's the games that piqued my interest.

i want a 3D wii :amazed:

actually, im just waiting for then to announce that the next wii will be backwards capability and then imma sell my wii

wii has games that i will just never get tired of playing ie resi 4 and both galaxys :')

oh and okami

okami > life

No More Heroes & Tatsunoko Vs Capcom as well. Wii has a lot of great games, they never get their due though.

My brother is obsessed with Nintendo, I have to listen to him talk about their games and consoles 24/7, I know about it and it's nothing but a new way for them to rob their fans.

The fact still stands if they actually cared about the people buying their products, they would of put it all into one console rather than releasing 'Improvement' there for DSi and then another random improvement thrown out a few months ago for a whole new console and then releasing this 3D Bull a matter of months later, ridiculous.

Have they never heard of just sending updates out?

no more heroes :worship:

speedbuster and bad girl :lovedup:

Patrick :worship:

Where's your complaining about Microsoft doing the same thing? They did that Elite and then they released a new version last year. If they were to announce Xbox 720 this year would you be saying the same thing? No. All consoles releases updated hardware. Sony has done it more with their PSP then Nintendo have and all the consoles had had at least one new model brought out this gen. In fact I think the Wii is the only console to go without any upgrades ironically enough.

3DS is a Next Gen console and it's hardly money grabbing is the DS has had a very long shelf life for a handheld, you can't really compare the DS to the DSi with the 3DS as it's like comparing the Playstation with the Playstation 2. Different generations. The 3DS has better online functionality this time around so I'll be surprised if they don't issue online updates on the console. It's not gonna stop any hardware updates though as all major game companies do them.

:worship:

For sure, Infact I once said on here in a thread Chewy made that Microsoft are money grabbing bastards and if they're going to release a new Xbox, make some big changes rather than just releasing an 'Elite' version of it.

You're right about the Wii.

I wasn't comparing the original DS to the DSi obviously they're completely different but I mean the XL version was the most pointless thing ever released by them.

It'll be interesting to see how this 3D Stuff is actually going to work without glasses though, have they released any screenshots at all for it?
