Just put in my deposit for the 3DS

Preordered it at Toys R Us this morning, but GBAtemp was down.
$50 deposit for a black 3DS. Hope I get it soon..

Comments

I only put in a 30$ deposit. It sucks because I can't keep putting more money in the deposit but rather have to pay for the rest when the time comes.

I might change my pre-order to EB Games now because of that. Hmmm...
 
I could waltz into somewhere like walmart and just buy one on launch, but i'm not going to till a good game or two comes out to actually make it worth getting.
Kinda sucks just having the system and nothing to do on it.

But what about RIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDGGGGGGGEEEEEEE RAAAAAAAACCCCCEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRR 3D?

Or those "super amazingly adorable want-to-kill-yourself-in-sheer-cuteness" Nintendogs+Cats?
 
$50?!

I only had to pay €5 in advance, and I get an accessory kit for free!

and if my town is anything like my town, every store except maybe EBgames will have a bunch in.
Games sell out here, but not systems. DSl, DSi, DSi XL, Wii, any 360, any PS3. None sold out everywhere here. My town has a fairly small gaming community, and it shows quite a bit.

If your town's Toronto, the quickest you'll get it if you don't pre-order is about a month after launch if you line up 6:00 in the morning.
I learned my lesson with the Wii...

Okay then, tell me what the 3DS version is like. Go on. I assume its amazingly great and it should be bought no matter what?

Depends if people like fighters, or what kind. I'd never buy street fighter on the 3DS. 1: it's better on consoles, and 2: I don't like SF. I'd rather see soul calibur.

Then there isn't anything else even worth mentioning on the launch list.

It'll still easily be the worst iteration of it. I don't care if it's in 3D, the console versions have better graphics, better online, and better local play. And for a fighting game, the better online and better local play really help.

Worst iteration? What about the iPhone version?

Horrible controls, bad graphics, and I don't think it even has online.

That's not SSFIV, that's SFIV.
