1. if i had the money by the time the 3ds comes out here i would get ssf4, nintendogs and try out the prof. layton game, since I hear it is just like the ace attorney series.

2. I thought they said that the 3ds would have more launch titles than the DS did? Or maybe, those are just the ones that are near or finished with development and are being manufactured.

I know right? I was watching thinking "are they gonna show new footage now?", "how about now", nothing

Yeah this is a really lame line-up. Not saying that these games are all bad, but we were all expecting much more, most notably Kid Icarus (which was the first 3DS game revealed I believe), and Zelda Ocarina of Time.
Of course, this could change when the 3DS is released in the States, or at least I hope so.

 

[Forstride]

Wow, that line-up is seriously shit. Let's just hope that the US launch lineup won't suck that bad. The only thing that really looks like something I'd get is MAYBE Nintendogs, and MAYBE SSF4. Also, Ocarina of Time 3DS as a non-launch title is just stupid.

 

[Bladexdsl]

japan can have that shit if they want my $$$ they better have a damn good better lineup when it hits the states!

Everyone is looking at the prices of the 3ds and games and the launch list and are like.
OH NO THIS IS GAY.
Remember it's just for Japan so we can't take the japanese info as if it's officially happening to us.

That maybe true, but if March 1 is the supposed release date for the 3DS in Europe, that could also mean that the US release isn't too far away from it. And, if that is the case, the line up may still be the same.

 

[Vigilante]

The only great game in the lineup is Professor Layton and the Mask of Miracle the others are pretty much badasses

yes but alot of people may have made it for english but not translated to japanese yet and the other way around.

The 3DS will probably be about $250 to match the price of the Wii (as the prices match in Japan). Would match the whole "same price as when the Wii launched" thing. I highly doubt it's gonna hit $300. Nintendo knows what technology they're using, but they still want it to sell.

Anyways, as I said, the release line up has a little something for everybody for Japan, but expect the English launch list to be a little lacking. Not all of those games will have been translated yet (ie: Layton which has no international release date yet), so we can't expect launch lists to be the same.

They....really should have gotten this in developer's hands earlier...

I mean 8 games...

2 are known to be bad-to-lukewarm (Samurai Warriors + Combat of Giants)

1 overly-made game that wouldn't really benefit from 3D, and is free online...a lot...(Puzzle Bobble)

1 Sports game that won't resonate with American audiences (and probably won't be released here - so minus one...3DSoccer)

2 Franchises that have been dying since the '90s (Ridge Racer + SSF - please don't get all whiny on me, I don't like the death of the 2D fighter either, but it's happening)

1 "game" that, frankly, isn't that fun, don't care what you say (Nintendogs)

And then, Professor Layton, which (I'm assuming) will be one of the worst in the series due to time constraints, lack of inspiration (it was said in an interview that the only theme they had working at the time was that it has 3D), and dealing with new hardware. Not to mention that it won't be released as a launch title overseas, seeing how long it takes to localize those things...

 

[Fear Zoa]

I preordered the 3ds and you know what...I don't like any of the launch games

Cave story and Pokemon white being the only thing I play on 3DS for a month or two ftw?

 

[ShadowSoldier]

Ew. What a horrible lineup. Totally not spending the cash on the system for this. There's no Mario or anything? Instead we get fucking Nintendogs? AGAIN?!

 

[rockstar99]

If winning11 isnt released in NA, im importing.forget everything else
