This just goes to show how a competative market is always good for consumers - whereas tight control results in stagnation and artificially inflated prices.
Personally I don't think the 10 game limit or even the price is the problem for SKY3DS - its the fact that its unproven as of yet.
The big question is what is Nintendo's next move and how will than affect the card?
Sinking $90~120 (+microSD) on a card that guarantees the use of 10 games - Better than nothing if you don't have a 4.x device.
Yet if next week/month Gateway or one of the others manages to get it working aswell you're gonna feel silly.
If Nintendo puts out a patch that breaks it? You're gonna regret spending your money on this.
So its a safe bet to wait for now and let others 'take the risk' if you will.
That all said - I do think its an interesting question: "If you could only pick 10 games, which ones would you choose?"
My own current top 3 if I could only buy a SINGLE game would be one of these:
- Fantasy Life
- Fire Emblem: Awakening
- Bravely Default
The remaining slots would be more difficult as there are a number of titles that I'd like to try but don't know if I would enjoy them enough to lock them in.
