I have been looking into buying a japanese 3DS for about a year now (too bad I haven't really been working all that heard on you know, learning japanese. Anyways. Being that Japan gets all the coolest stuff, especially if you are a weeaboo like emigre and I are, you really appreciate that kinda stuff. I have never really been one for the special edition 3DSs, because frankly there havent been any games that I care about THAT much to have a special emblem branded on my console. So I kinda decided on getting just a plain ice white 3DS.
My plan is to get one when I am ready with enough japanese language knowledge to buy a 3DS and confidently play games. Now, probably not something like Devil Survivor or anything SUPER text heavy, but maybe lighter text games and the obvious, DQ games. But I am also kinda crossing my fingers for smea's 3DS CFW to get a release something soon. That way I can obliterate the region lock and have the 3DS I want, as well as playing the japanese exclusives I want.
Then after a little while the special edition Terry's Wonderland 3DS really started to grow on me. Which is mostly ok. But that means I would have two copies of terrys wonderland (long story). Also, since its release about a year and a half ago, it would still definitely have a FW that is <4.5. So if smea's CFW only works on <4.5 i would still be in the clear for my plan.
BUT NOW.
YESTERDAY.
I found this.
HOW CAN I NOT. SERIOUSLY.
This stupid special edition causes so many problems with my theory and plan.
It fixes the problem of having two copies of terrys wonderland. But I messes up everything else.
Since I cant ever get one until February, there is no way it will have a low firmware.
I dont really like the XLs for a load of reasons, I love the gloss look of the regular 3DSs, the DS lite size, the tighter display and pixel density etc.
But the very compelling argument arises again, "how can I not." I think i'm just going to have to do it guys.
Foxis raises a good point though. "but bortz, no gaems." Well even if he is right, the only game(s) I need I A)already have and B) come with the console
I HATE THIS
