Anyway, anyone remember the kid who gave his 'humble' opinion on the 3DS? Oh you know, the one where he said the 3DS took ideas from the PSP or something... :-"

I wonder if they are related...? :| xP

Judging by most of the posts I guess I was right in assuming Geoff Keighley (if that's how it's spelled) is the one reviewing the 3DS.
lol what the fuck are you talking about? Try watching the video before forecasting your biases. You really hate keighly that much that you assume its him every time there is a claim of a "bad review?"
Actually I was joking, I watched the video before I posted.

And yes, I do hate him that much.

Yes it's a bad review and he is pretty stupid but you hate the review that bad you want to kill him?
Nobody is forcing you to watch it.

Go home Nintendo fanboys and girls, not everybody likes the 3DS.

I'm surprised this is news. It's just a guy giving his opinions on the 3DS.

He might hate it. It's your opinion that counts to you and you only.

Ahh well.
He said cartridges haven't been seen since the last Gameboy device (he's counting the DS as a gameboy I think) which is technically true BUT its been surviving for years with cartridges. They're as good a way of transporting content as any. A lot more convenient than 2GB digital downloads in my opinion.
Stylus. Yeah maybe it should have a capacitive touchscreen but how would you play ANY of the games without a stylus. Your thumb is good for quick taps but for games like Phantom Hourglass its needed, capacitive or not.
He's entitled to his opinion and he never actually says that the iPhone is better than the 3DS, he just has that damned hook title on his video. He poses the question at the end: Will it do as well as older consoles? Its twice as expensive as the DS, more expensive than a Wii and the games are 30x the price of iPhone games. With everyone and their mother having an iPhone these days it is a legitimate threat to Ninty. They'll go "Why buy a dedicated console? I can play games on my phone." Course the 3DS does games better but people are stupid. I do call bullshit on him saying the iPod and iPhone are "technically cheaper". They're not. They're just not.

And to think that NGP is also going to use cartridges o.o.
The way he said it.. well he made it sound like cartridges are EXTINCT.

Is he seriously comparing the 3DS to the iPhone? I would understand if it was the iPod touch, but that's pushing it a little bit.

after reading all the comments, i just like the zeroG news above it
martin posted an anti-3ds review on gbatemp... nice work man

whats the size of the biggest ipod/iphone game to date? 500MB? i think the 3ds deserves some more respect with games being larger due to the 3d. I agree that N64 games were smaller but the features in the 3ds justify the big size, the DS also has smaller sized games but with more features (sometimes much much more) than the iphone.

Personally i like the iphone/pod but i feel the attention it gets is not worth it. Its just a dynamic (also touch) and cheap (apps) to upgrade hence the great liking towards it. Plus its multipurpose and maybe a fad for attracting people. Dont get me wrong, its good.

"the i phone does more" well lets see........its a damn phone made by apple what else do u expect.second its a handheld 3D system what else do you want it to do?? i just hate critics like that.. your probably in your 20s or 30s bro of course you gunna prefer a phone over a childrens handheld system. if you havent "grown up" with it then dont expect to be all happy over it...go back to halo and let the real 3DS fans have some fun...
