3DS extra slide-pad + Monster Hunter 3G confirmed!

[gerben838665]

Nintendo if you add this put a battery pack in it so we can play longer with our 3ds !!!!

If we ambassadors don't get the expansion pad for free, I'll probably never buy any Nintendo hardware ever again. Full stop.

Spoiler

Nintendo, that was an ass of a decision. Way to make a pocket console even more pocket friendly (-.-)

Also, lol Meowthemouse

Idk about others but after going through the last few pages, I'm also convinced that a new 3DS revision is just around the corner. But it won't hurt me at all considering I own every DS revision out there....might as well continue with the trend and buy 3DS XP (Xtra Pad LOL) to increase my evergreen DS family

Yeah I'm sorta in the same boat. I will probably end up getting it too. I just wish they would have delayed the original in order to add things they clearly wanted in it but left out to meet their deadline.

Well they didn't want to add the extra C-Pad as far as I'm aware, I read that Iwata (I think it was him, or Reggie) saying that "Our Gyro sensor makes up for the lack of 2nd C-Pad". Well good going Nintendo. Next I expect to see an even bigger cradle like plastic that adds L2 and R2 buttons lol. And then next year even more bigger plastic that eventually covers the whole of the top screen thus eliminating the sweet spot problem (3D from every angle!! Rejoice!!).

Let's look at the brightside. Nintendo seems to be looking at the complaints and trying to fix it (Price, NES games, second analog nub) maybe they'll improve their crappy online!

Haha, this probably won't fit on 3ds's with extended capacity batteries

Can't wait for monster hunter though

For the love of anything, please make it so that I can play Monster Hunter Tri without that ugly mess jutting out its butt every time I play.

Well if there was a new 3DS i would rush out to buy a 3DS.
Because people will be selling their 3 week old 3DSs in great condition but cheap price.
It's genius!
Anyway this thing looks comfortable to hold.
Who actually brings their 3DS out anyway?
If i did then who cares if i don't get to use a 2nd analog for a few hours...

 

[chris888222]

I won't mind if it comes with an extra battery.

I also want hands on experience.

Gosh, TGS is going to be soooooo fun.

To everyone else wondering about MH: the game will only UTILIZE the second slidepad. There should be other control options. Besides, the second pad is optional and Nintendo isn't even forcing you to buy it.

Me. I average about two streetpasses a day so I figure i'll bring it out wherever I go.

Did you read the whole thing? This already adds a second set of shoulder buttons.

That sounds better, an extra C-Pad, extra battery + the ability to use this thing as a charging cradle too. Problem solved. Lol.

TGS is gonna be fun, but I'm mostly looking forward to Heroes Of Ruin and KH Dream Drop.

@chartube - Nothing has been confirmed...yet. Nintendo UK did confirm that an extra C-Pad is coming but not anytime soon. Thus I still don't believe that picture until it's confirmed by Nintendo themselves that, the leaked picture is the REAL C-Pad Peripheral.

Are you gonna be there, you were at the E3, right?

How did you get invited by the way?

I got in as a news staff. Lucky me I turned 21 then. Able to enter.

Nah, I'll only be going to Tokyo at the end of this year.

 

[chartube12]

I bet the XSP is going to cost 80 bucks. 50 bucks for a large battery (I have very little doubt, that it won't have one) and 30 bucks for the rest of the plastic inside. Has I said before. Til a revision is released, this will probably replace the charge dock in the current 3DS box, but add the price back up to 249.99. The price drop was no doubtfully to get rid of the old dock stations from nintendo warehouses/plants.

I'm looking only for KH3D on this tgs

I could probably get into E3 myself as part of the celebrity/media but I can't afford the plane ticket to LA

I bet:
If it comes with battery - $35.99
No battery - $19.99
