Dark Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 [quote name='Canadian' timestamp='1295757074' post='4953524'] 250$ is okay IMO. Games I'm going to get: - The Legend of Zelda : Ocarina of Time - Paper Mario - Mario Kart (Don't be sh** like Wii was) - Kid Icarus - Ridge Racer - Street Fighter - Star Fox [/quote] Eh, no good games on release, so I've made a tentative list of what I want. LoZ: OoT Paper Mario Mario Kart Pilotwings Resort Kid Icarus (?) Also, Mario Kart Wii wasn't horrible. I mean, if you want me to be honest, MK64 and SMK were infinitely worse with their horrid controls. Maybe MKWii is too item-based, sure, but eh. It's tough to call. Just get rid of Blue Shell and get rid of POW Block and I think we'll be okay. Also, anyone know what the starting list of GB/GBA Virtual Console games are? I know Super Mario Land is one, but I have no idea about any others. I used to own Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories for the GBA but I'm retarded and lost it. And I hate GBA emulators. So I really hope they have Chain of Memories as a Virtual Console game. So much nostalgia... <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Roxas Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 I assume that they'll add some eventually. The Wii VC covers NES, SNES, and N64, which are the three generations of consoles that it's otherwise incompatible with, so I think the 3DS eShop will add GBA games eventually. http://kotaku.com/5740777/gamestop-listings-peg-3ds-titles-at-40-to-50-in-us I'd take this with a grain of salt, but if Ocarina of Time, Star Fox, [i]and[/i] Uprising all come out on the same day, I'll be very happy.

Larxene Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 OoT not being released til June makes me rage. I was hoping it'd be a launch title so I could actually play something on it when I get it on release date, but that's just irritating. Oh well, at least I'll have Duodecim.

It's too bad, now I'm gonna even more of a reason not to spend money on these games, dang over priced nonsense. Ah well, guess you can't have everything cheap. Whatever, only games I really want now are Zelda and Starfox, maybe Mario Kart, although I didn't play the last two Mario Kart games nearly as much as I would like.

If it IS June 2, though, then Nintendo will have hit the jackpot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 Guys, you know whats funny? I bet after 6 months they'll have the Nintendo 3DS Lite out (or they've already made it). It's going to be fun playing these games first, but knowing that the 3DS will be outdated shortly gets me upset. Hell, I have the very first DS that came out than they did this: DS Lite, DSi, DSi Lite, DSi XL. And for the Gameboy: Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Gameboy Advanced, Gameboy Advanced SP, Gameboy Micro. I just don't want to have to spend another $300.00 in 6 months. : / Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB, GBC and GBA were merely different systems with reverse compatability that followed the same naming scheme, and the Game Boy Micro sucked. As for the DS, the DS Lite was only a necessary upgrade if your DS was already broken, and there was no DSi Lite. Also, the space between the DS and DS Lite was a good 2 years.

Phantom Roxas Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 The only thing bad about the DSi was that you couldn't use the Pal Park in Pokemon. Sure, the battery life was a little bit less, but it was still better than the original DS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larxene Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 They all play the same games. Who the hell cares? Just get whatever one's cheapest. The only potential problem is the low battery life, but as long as you keep it fully charged before going out with it, that shouldn't be a problem.
