I preordered this on Amazon literally minutes after the product pages were updated. I'm so absurdly excited for this technology. The launch titles are pretty underwhelming, but I've always had a soft spot for PilotWings, and I never finished SMT: Devil Survivor, so I think I'll probably pick those two up, and maaaaybe either Ridge Racer or one of the fighters, depending on what my cashflow is like.

It is going to be a difficult wait for this to land though. At least I have Radiant Historia and possibly Pokemon Black to look forward to in the meantime.

Whut. Look at the pathetic history of console launch titles then look at the 3DS launch titles.

Oh, I'm well aware. I remember when I got my original DS a few weeks after launch and the only game worth buying was Super Mario 64. I also got Feel The Magic XX/XY, which was incredibly bizarre. This launch seems about on par with that one though, nothing really stands out.

One of the best launch lineups I can recall was actually the ill-fated PSP: It hade Wipeout Pure, Lumines, Metal Gear Acid, Darkstalkers, Twisted Metal, THUG 2 and Ape Escape. Of course after that not a single title worth owning came out for over a year, but it had a damn good launch lineup.

The launch titles are irrelevant to me. Sadly, I am a new tech whore. With the noticeable exception of the iPad, which will never find its way into my home.

I've bought the NDS on multiple occassions, the PSP, two generations of the iPhone, two generations of the iPod Touch, the Ps3, which I've since sold, the 360, the Wii, the Gamecube, the Ps2, the Psone, the Dreamcast, the Saturn, the N64, the Sega Genesis, the Super Ninendo, the NES, the Gameboy, the Gameboy Color, the Gameboy Advance, the Atari 2800, the Atari 2600, at least 3 generations of PC and now 3 generations of laptop, the last one of which costs $1200.

This system could launch with only one title, Tiddlywinks 3D, and I'd still probably buy it.

Amazon are getting strict on exporting gaming-related goods, I dunno how reliable they'd be.

Amazing how it has taken this long for any company to implement this.

pretty cool, i have a box of ds games i was given im assuming this be backwards compatible i may have to buy one ( was just gonna get the regular DS LX, but my Mame arcade cab keeps robbing my money.. but im almost done with it so i see a DS in the future. im getting bored with my ipod ). and man the blond at 7:30 ish has some really really tight butt jeans on... probably to help her stay standing all day man.. i do not see how she could sit in them.

i have a feeling the 3ds is gonna be a hit, regardless if i think 3d is a trend right now.. i bought a new tv and they tried so hard to get me to buy a 3d tv... i told the sales man, nope maybe in 10 years ill check into them.
