I'll give Pokemon Black a shot, and I might get Okamiden if I spot favorable reviews (or just for the lulz).
Also, subbing TV-shows? I'm imagining you are talking about foreign language shows...

i'm not dryYoshi so i can't answer for him but yes, i'd say he is talking about adding subtitles to foreign language videos (usually japanese and most of the time anime)

Meh, I was excited for quite a while but its dying down for me...

I coped by buying myself a DSi.

i did the same with a dsi xl but it didn't fill the void knowing that a 3ds was coming :<

Just think about the NGP and you'll be fine to cope without it for, say, 8-9 months.

I probably won't get a 3DS until sometime next year. It's probably on the bottom of my list of things to get (which currently consists of a computer, a PS3, a PSP Go, Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, Super Street Fighter IV, and a bunch of other stuff).

I think that'd only make him want the 3DS more

definitely
who would put up with an ngp when they could be fapping to the brilliance of the 3ds?

Oh wow! Just realized that it's coming out next week! Didn't mean to add insult to injury there. Well I've done a lot of things that will surely help me feel occupied and not think about the 3DS that much. I've bought a dozen of Xbox 360 games from eBay so I will never get bored of my Xbox Also, like what others said in this thread, get Pokemon Black/White, if you're into Pokemon or backtrack games that you haven't finished/planning to finish/have never played. I've got those + university so I'm also doing courseworks and exam revisions.

I suggest you do the same if you can.

I've recently finished MOTHER 1 for the 5th or 6th time (it's still hard as hell as ever, in the last parts), I've started another game in Earthbound (hopefully trying to finish my 2nd playthru, this time), and I should replay MOTHER 3 for the 3rd time in HARD MODE. ...Well, I didn't know about a HARD MODE, but this sounds interesting

Yeah. you just name yourself "HARD MODE" and the game is whup-ass hard. I played Zero on Easy Mode, I plan to play it normally on my MOTHER 3 Micro once the Mato MOTHER 1+2 English patch is out.

Awesome, I totally forgot Mato put that in. Will do.

Always played Zero on "normal" mode. Sometimes I've played it on my GBASP using MOTHER1+2 (there's a MOTHER1 part only english patch out there), and sometime I've finished it with Earthbound Zero using nesDS or Nester on my PSP. And boy, it's hard I hope that the patch will come out soon, even if I'm already almost halfway in Earthbound on snex9x TYL on my PSP
