it is a hard decision for me, i currently have a DS lite gold version, i wanted to upgrade to the DSi XL at some point, then nintendo announces the 3DS so i am stuck between the two. i have to keep the DS lite because i have a old cyclo DS that can't be used anywhere else, but i was thinking of buying a DSi XL and getting a flashcart for that but only problem is i cannot afford BOTH the XL and the 3DS it has to be one or the other, either i buy the DSi XL and a flashcart or buy a 3DS and play DS games on my old lite, that is my predicament right now

any advice?

on top of that 3DS games are 100% going to be £40 here in the UK, just look at how expensive DS games were when they first came out!

I'll be getting one on day one. May be tempted to import one if it has an English option too.

I'd hope to get one early too; if it's possible for me to get one on day one then I would. However, I'd rather buy one that was destined for Europe/UK, and not import.

Every time I buy a console, I make sure I can pirate games on it first. This console will be the only console I will actually buy games for.

Uh... You appear to have a PSN sig.

It's my brother's console and a game I got for free

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
