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

[SamAsh07]

Did you guys even read my post of the update on C-Pad?? It's confirmed but it'll be awhile till it's revealed, thus that picture is fake.

Seriously, why are some people just so crazy over one analog when there's a decent touchscreen?

Because people want the features of the Vita without owning a Vita.
e.g. people who claim to hate Sony

Not really. I love both Sony and 3DS, but i really prefer not to play using touchscreen. I really hate touchscreen playing unless all the button is touchscreen mapped(like the iPad etc...) And i guess the only reason for getting the 3DS was because of those nintendo only tittles etc... The layton series. Im not even playing with 3D on just so the battery will live longer.

Honestly, this looks like garbage. Nintendo has made a few questionable design choices through the years and this one is by far one of the worst. It not only looks ugly, it will inevitably be added into 3DS revision 2 which is bound to piss a ton of people off. Really, this just makes me feel like the 3DS was a rushed mess and so now they're shipping out accessories that should have been included as features in the first place.
I really suggest that we wait for more info to be released before saying bad about the product.

Yes, the 3DS was rushed, but why is everyone so sure that there will be a revision with 2 analog sticks?

As for the design, it may have its pros and cons.

I don't think its fake. It comes with MH Tri 3G news.

Is this a Capcom or a Nintendo device? If it's just for a game I don't care about like Monster Hunter, fine, but I don't want a glut of lazy home-console style games. Sony already made that mistake by incorporating dual nubs on the Vita.

To get slightly off the subject of the second analog and focus on the second part of this topic, i found more scans of Monster Hunter Tri G-
http://www.gamekyo.com/newsfr43022_monster...iers-scans.html

It looks really nice too! Check out the third pic for the clearest look of the game we've got. Scans suck, but at least we've got our first peek at the game.

It is obvious they'll be adding an analog stick and R/L2 buttons on their next revision. I suppose it's for monster hunter and kid icarus and that game has a horrible control. I suppose it'll be optional you have the choice of using the touch screen or just use the 2nd analog stick. I don't think it'll be compulsory.

Holy crap, the game looks brilliant!

wow amazing....

I also noticed about MH Tri G- looks like the graphics may be slightly IMPROVED in the 3DS version. It's too early to tell if this is overall better, but the characters now cast REALTIME shadows. The Wii version just supported simple round blob shadows. Can't wait to see clean screens and video of the game.

Compare yourself to this footage taken in Dolphin (ignore the obvious resolution bump, just want you to focus on the shadows)-

The analog isn't a compulsory add on in the first place!

Even if the next 3DS has duo analogs, at least present owners won't feel 'left out' (but maybe Ninty will sorta lose sales this way - taking risks huh?)

Back to game - It looks marvelous, confirmed purchase from me.

The game looks cool, but still not thinking of buying a 3DS.. They honestly need to get a better lineup of games out (OoT 3D isn't enough to make me buy a new console). As for the slide-pad, has there actually been any confirmation that it would work as a battery pack? The design doesn't really show if it has any attachments for the charger unit?

Screw this....i'm binning my 3DS as soon as i get a chance. I've already lost £100 (yup, convert that to USD....) on it due to price drops (NOT redeemed by some NES and GBA games) and as time goes on this is looking more and more like Nintendo have lost the plot.

 

[NiGHtS]

That's absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Range-TE]

that is ugly, i am so holding off buying one until they release a redesign with the new buttons built in, even if they have to make it heavier/larger

 

[Mr Slug]

i am now glad i didnt rush out and buy one on the first day, i am now glad i decided to wait even though i could get a new 3ds for £105, i will now wait till a 3ds XL comes out with big screens and extra stick incoperated into portable, this is a perfect chance for nintendo to upgrade the 3ds to a 3dsXL with extra stick built in, as the add on will make the 3ds owners happy and a new revision to XL i hope for built in stick 3ds.

i will wait and wait till a 3dsXL big screens and buit in 2nd stick comes, if it dont come i wontbuy as easy as that, as i do plan on getting a PS Vita 100% this just makes the Vita look better and better to me and it has games..... unlike the 3ds at moment

dont get me wrong i love nintendo but it just feels like they made a mess of things unless a 3dsXL comes out.

 

[chris888222]

Gosh, the way everyone is saying it is like the end of the world if you have that analog add on. It's not compulsory, we don't know more about it's exact specs besides that photo, and also, there has been NO solid evidence that the redesigned 3DS will have two analogs.

Eh, the games that are going to be released in the future seem really good actually. Kid Icarus, Super Mario 3D Land, Monster Hunter Tri G, Star Fox this Friday, Animal Crossing, Paper Mario and several others.

But right now, I agree. The game library looks so dry.

The fuck people, you're not forced to use it. Think of it just a cradle with an extra control that's optional.
