Nintendo 3DS Discussion Thread

Just got Gunman Clive 2 it's fantastic, the art style is stunning.

 

30 hours in MH4U...

 

Received my Majoras Mask New 3DS today! It's beautiful!

 

I like Nintendo, but they sure are weird sometimes.

And as usual, to the hardcore gamer's detriment

 

Finally got 4 ultimate. It's beautiful ;-;

 

You're all making me jealous! I have to wait until my birthday for my New Nintendo 3DS!

 

Stupid Gamestop looks like they are only selling the New 3DS XL in forced bundles now. At least online. Not sure about in-store. My son doesn't have enough for the forced bundle, and his credit is at Gamestop so he's basically screwed until they stop this nonsense. But since it's online-only maybe in-store they'll have the handhelds solo when they get some in? Hopefully.

 

Yeah stores will sell solo so you should be ok. They've done a similar thing with the gamecube adapters by pairing them with controllers. I think they're just trying to maximize profits due to the extremely constrained supply they're receiving due to the port strikes over on the west coast. I would keep calling gamestops around down, one of my friends was actually able to hunt down and get them to hold a unit for him yesterday.

Good Luck!

hope your son enjoys his New 3DS once you're able to track one down!

 

The biggest difference I notice in the graphics for MH4U on n3DS is definitely the monsters. They look much smoother and shinier in the right places

 

Ironfall Invasion plays surprisingly well

 

I've just finished playing Cave Story (eShop version) for the first time. I'll play it again at some point to earn the best ending. Wonderful game.

 

One of the best e-shop games. There are 2 puzzle games that are also totally excellent. I cant remember the names,but they are block puzzles and the sequel. Someone will know them. Maybe Crushmo? Cant remember.

 

Pushmo and Crashmo (known as Pullblox and Fallblox in Europe) developed by Intelligent Systems. I've played Pullblox and as you say it is excellent. Will definitely download the sequel, too.

 

For anyone on the fence Codename STEAM really is a fantastic game. Load times are not a big deal like reviewers said and is a key mechanic in learning enemy movements.

Edit: update announced for faster enemy turns so now there is no excuse to not buy it!

 

Binding of Isaac coming to New 3DS and Wii U woooooo!

 

I highly recommend giving Box Boy a try. It's a neat puzzle game and fairly challenging too.

 

Picked up a New 3DS today, just need to buy some games now.

 

Give Xenoblade a try

 

I am thinking about that, looks fantastic.
