Decisions, decisions...

So, in regards to the 3DS, I'm not sure what to do with my money "situation." I have $82 put down on a Cosmo Black 3DS pre-order, and I'll most likely be putting $98 on it at the beginning of March, which leaves me with $70 left to pay.

Now, the issue comes with that $70. I'd most likely have to sell stuff to get most of it. I want to get a game with the 3DS too. Now, the only 3DS game at launch that looks appealing to me is RE: Mercenaries (Apparently though, it might not be a launch title in the US). If RE: Mercenaries isn't a launch title, I might get Super Monkey Ball instead. However, Pokemon White will be launching before then, and I plan on playing that eventually, so it's tough deciding what to get.

As for stuff to sell, I'm contemplating selling my 8GB iPod Touch 4G that I got for Christmas. I feel stupid for even getting it, as I knew this was going to happen. I really only wanted it as a way to tide myself over until the 3DS, and it's done it's job well. I have a ton of music on it though, and I don't have any other MP3 player. I know the 3DS will have the built in media player, but meh. Carrying around 2 devices can get a little cumbersome. Not to mention, the 3DS will be able to do a bit more (3D Camera, Actual Games, etc.).

If I do sell it, I'll probably sell it for around $180 (I'm willing to negotiate, but I won't go below $150), which is $50 off the price of a new one (Which are $230). I bought it the day after Christmas, and it's in perfect shape. Has a rubbery case, and it will come with the USB cable as well. I'll be posting a topic in the Trading Forums after I post this, so post there, or PM me if you're interested.

Hmm, I have a question. You seem to know your way around Game Maker. Does the thing have a code output type of thing? Where you could make it put the code into C++ or something?
 
No, it doesn't have anything like that sadly. The only close thing to that is a C++ compiler that the creators have been working on. They use it for iPod/iPhone/PSP/Android ports. Hopefully it's released to the public in the future.

Damn, that would make it possible to port a few projects to the DS. Hopefully it will be released. :/
