Sweet. Haha I used to be into RC cars when I was little and you always had to discharge them completely to get a maximum charge.
It was already charged enough for one hour of play time right outta the box. ^.^
The system is really awesome. Great hardware design. Very beautiful.
They should have incorporated bluetooth and ditched the FC system (I want to rip the balls off which ever nintendo employee decided to keep it). Also, the battery life is a little bit low. I would have preferred a larger system with extra battery life.
For the people who argue that 4 hours is enough they are retarded. I'm a full grown adult with a job and college and the Nintendo 3DS should be able to last me for long car trips and flights. I take my portables with me places because I usually have nothing constructive to do for quite a while.
Also, the only good game is SSIV which I picked up. They need some more titles.
