    Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City

    I've started using experience point modifier cheats on most rpgs with the no encounter toggle cheat (Only 2X-5X tho). It still feels a little bit like cheating, but seriously, I can't take the combat encounters every 10 seconds anymore. Esp. when the combat tactics are so simple/boring and...

    Hacking 3DS may spell end to Ninty's piracy woes.

    Well, at least they're honest! And they weren't going to contribute to the software sales anyway (Which is where most of everyone's profits come from.), so I'm sure the soft-devs and Nindy aren't crying. They (the devs. & Nindy) may miss the peripheral interest and word-of-mouth them having...

    ROM Hack How do you add intros at beginning when the ROM start?

    Personally I find intros/cracktros annoying. Sure, you provided the rom, you cracked it, etc., but you didn't *make* the game. They were cool in the PC gaming scene where they'd play while your game was installed/unpacked, but its just tacky on commercial roms. It should be seperate from the...

    Gaming DS Games of the Month: July 2010

    This is one of the reasons why DS game sales are tanking now, everyone's getting bored of the same thing again and again. The 3DS is really gonna need to make the games that the DS couldn't do easily. I'm talking full 3D (As in FPS shooters, not 3D 'effect') game enviroments and Wii-like...

    Iwata/Reggie- 3DS will cost more than DS/DSi

    If it costs more than $199 then that's gonna be more than alot of people are willing to spend (Even if the DSi was desirable to me, I won't/wouldn't pay $169 for it!), esp. if they're just getting something for their pre-teen kid. I mean would you want to spend $199 or more for a pure gaming...

    Gaming Will 3DS games actually deliver?

    I know everyone is expecting big things with the 3DS and its 3D display and vastly improved 3D processing abilites, but I'm doubtful. Nintendo led the way on the DS with great in-house 3D (As in 3D world, not 3D-effect) titles like Metroid Prime: Hunters and Super Mario 64, but what then? (And...

    Gaming Hardest DS Games

    oh god yes, Dark Spire was hellaciously hard. There'd be things you *have* to do to progress in the game, I mean really obscure crap that a person who's played RPG for years would never think of! I used a walkthrough to get through it...didn't feel like bursting a vein... Yup, Contra 4 was...

    Hacking How long till the 3DS is hacked?

    Just my opinion, but I don't think there's been any real incentive to hack the DSi. Is DSiWare really worth the effort?? I think most hackers were long ago lulled away by other gadgets: smartphones, DAPs, etc. At least I hope this is the reason. Maybe the DSi was a testbed for the 3DS's...

    Hardware Nintendo 3DS Real from E3

    More pics: Demo showing the 3D effect featuring Mario and Bowser? The bootup screen seems about the same, except for the red '3' in front of the 'DS'. Go here and here for more excellent closeup shots from Engadget. Front view. Kid Icarus: Uprising, sports the 3DS's Wii-like graphics...

    Gaming Why Mario Kart?

    please note the 'for me's and keep your flames to yourself. thx you!. Scroll to the bottom for the short version. Just to back the OP up a bit amid all the bashing, I also don't like Mario Kart too much. Played through it once, #1 in all races and never picked it up again. Likes: -Easy to...

    Hacking DSTWO Owners: Your thoughts so far?

    Methinks I *should* wait until they iron out the kinks and get SNES emulation to a decent level, BUT its a steal at less than $40 now really IMO and once they release a few more updates and iron out the kinks and get most things working well, this is gonna be one *very* in-demand cart. Right...
