the 3DS is lookin' good, the games too but ocarnia of time looks terrible in terms of the 3DS graphics in the video. Looks like some folks just ported the 64' version straight from the box.
OMG!! Suddenly i become multiorgasmic!!!
I'm thinking that if i save a little (with the current exchange rate) i can get my 3ds for............ X-mas 2011
(not too sure, yet), anyway you know the first generation of games are made to explore the console capability, so i can wait.

The price is fully understandable considering the hardware (there are TWO GPUs)
If you dont have money, work an additional month or something

Is it confirmed there are really two GPUs? The rumoured specs from IGN have one GPU and two CPUs.

i'm praying the 3DS has a cheaper launch price then what was announced, or translates to ($300 just won't happen for me).
If it was released at $250, i'd be all for it!

Any news on if these things will be regioned lock ? As an Aussie, I got an even poorer release rate than Europe and even if it does come out here its at least a month late.
EWWWW I HATE THE 3DS DESIGN.
But I likey the operating system menu thing..
So, I guess i'll wait for the 3DS lite
But it's about $300...
No likey.
I guess i'll have to enter all contests to win a 3DS

The 3DS OS looks good. That was the number one thing I wanted to see. The OS is what interests me most about the 3DS aside from the games and hardware. I like the way it's organized into different categories. Makes it seem more neat! I hope the OS moves more quickly, though. The DSi's OS moved too slowly for my liking. I can't wait until this is out so I can learn more about the 3DS's OS. I was hoping it looked more like the XMB, though. Oh well!
Nintendo finally made the smart decision of allowing us to transfer our DSiWare from the DS to the 3DS. I just hope that the transfer doesn't get the DSiWare removed from the DSi. It would suck if it did. I'm not going to rage about the price (25,000 yen) like other people will, though. Look at the below spoiler.
And this is how retarded people sound when they even have a shred of belief that the 3DS is going to be $300 in America.
If that same ratio was applied to the 3DS's price it would be $214.
I knew from the start that Nintendo was going to have GB/GBA games on a Virtual Console and I'm glad. I'm going to be purchasing quite a few gems from the Virtual Console! I guess that rules out the possibility of a DSi Virtual Console, though. The internet browser was obvious considering the DSi had one. I probably won't be using it.
I'm going to be purchasing the 'Cosmos Black' 3DS. I might not purchase it at launch, though. It all depends on what the NA price turns out to be. If the NA price is ~$200 I'll be purchasing it. If it's $200+, I'll have to wait a few months. The 3DS can play games from every handheld Nintendo has released in the past 20 years (correct me if I'm wrong)! 3DS, DSi, DS, GBA, GBC and GB games! This handheld is awesome!
This is really disappointing. A late release and it's freaking expensive?
Piracy will be the deciding factor in whether or not I'll get one.

It's not really late as they never officially said it would even be released this year. Expensive? It's probably only going to be $250 or even less in the US (not even that much considering it's a luxury item/hobby). You've probably already pirated that much anyway. And I don't know about you, but I usually buy something because it's a good product not because it's piracy enabled. Piracy does seem like a plus sometimes, but really, the deciding factor? What if all games for the 3DS were shit and torturous to play?DeMoN said:This is really disappointing. A late release and it's freaking expensive?

Slightly disappointed it's not released earlier though...
For those who are saying it will be the same price has the psp-go need to check out walmart's website. The psp-go from walmart.com is now 199.99 same price has the 3002 model. Except walmart's offering the 3002 model with two games. Crap games but still games. Than there's the peace walker deal for 199.
If the 199 becomes a new price for the psp-go than the 3ds is more expensive than it.
At any rate I could care less. I'll gladdly buy a 3ds for 250

It's probably already been mentioned in the thread, but those bitching about the price (most likely a large portion of U.S./European posters)--always complain more than the Aussies. Poor them--bitching about $300USD, try a lot, lot more.

I agree with you on that one.. but, I might get it once KH 3D comes out.. I totally love it despite any price.. but until then I might as well wait for free games.. any1?
But considering it's 3D I would agree with the price, however, 300$ is a bit rough for me atleast coz I am poor lol but anyway, it's either KH or Piracy will get me into it..

Well, this is how it's going to play out for me:BlueStar said:The only difference the price will make to me is how alert I am when playing it on public transport just after release
*buys 3DS*
*buys epic games*
*buys pistol*
*conceals pistol*
*plays in public*
*guy grabs*
*i shoot in leg*
*takes back*
*dramatically takes off glasses*
*DAS WAT U GIT*
Well a late release would be okay for me to give time for developers to hone and improve their games more.Who would want a crappy rushed game as a launch title.Plus the release date gives more time for us to save more money for the con and games plus a later date means more games to chose from so it's okay.Though to be honest I was really hoping for it to be released this holiday.Oh well, that's life.
