Really hope it comes near the end of February, thats when my Midterms end so I have more free time to game. Just finished ORAS on a legit cart and ran out of games to play. Might start with a Link Between Worlds if my gateway doesnt appear soon from china(It's been almost a month, is it usually this long?)

Like I said in an earlier post, it could be from the dock worker strike in the west and so it may take much longer to get it sadly. It's just completely backed up over there, so it could affect lots of things.
But, this is merely speculation. Although, shipping from China to the US usually only takes 2-3 weeks at most...

While we're all waiting for GW to release something, there's something that's been on my mind. As you all may or may not know, there is a very big strike going on for dockworkers on the western coast. What makes this interesting is that a lot of trading and shipping from the US and Asia comes from the western coast. I'm just wondering if they're having problems thinking that N3DS's in circulation for the US are rather slim since you can't get them anywhere atm (this might just be natural release stock) and they may be waiting a bit until they know there is a market for it to still make a good profit.

So.....yeah. Any thoughts?


I don't think that's a big deal, as I'm pretty sure there's a factory in America that churns out N3DSes. There's also airmail. If anything, announcing N3DS support asap will get more people to buy Gateways over Sky.

I have a question. Why isn't everyone using the Blue Gateway card for NDS roms, now that we know you can unblock it by installing that unblocking cia file.

Does DSTwo or other r4 cards provide better features or something?

I mean to say why go and buy another DS flashcart when you can use the one you've got. This is of course for people who have the ability to install .cia.

People with unhacked 3DS or the N3DS (currently), I know they need to get the latest ones which work.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
