If you have a 3Ds and even remotely like soccer games get Pro evolution soccer by konami

It utilizes the 3d better than any other game I've played yet, simply brilliant!

Did anyone get Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars? I'm pleasantly surprised by the impressions and reviews I've read about it.

It may very well be my next 3DS purchase. Sadly, I'm not really enjoying Samurai Warriors all that much -- there's tons of potential there (the dynamic mission structure is quite good, with objectives changing as you make your way through a battle), but the combat is remarkably flat. Ghost Recon looks pretty great, just about the perfect game for the system.

Even though I really enjoyed Street Fighter and Ridge Racer my eyes and head really hurt after each play.

I ended up selling mine to a friend and bought another first gen iPad.

well, that was fast. What was it, just a single day? Your eyes must have really hurt something awful...

EDIT: Also, any word on Steel Diver? That game actually sounds sorta cool..!

I agree, it looks fun, but it apparently only has 7 missions, plus some time trials and stuff. Pretty ridiculous after all the flak Nintendo was firing at the app store. I'm going with Pilotwings and Samurai Warriors.

I'm playing it right now! There's a surprising amount of content for a launch game. And i agree, the 3D is fantastic in the game, I think it's the first ever football game where one of the best moments is a goal kick, seeing the pitch stretch out for miles is an amazing moment.

And the point that I made stands.

What hyperbole? Your point is silly, of course it matters that the 3DS is easily available. When has there ever not been a mad rush in recent years to buy the newest Nintendo product?

Well looking in the direction manual there is a TON of different passes and fakes, so to master this game is gonna take sometime.

The 2 greatest things with this game is the analog joystick, it works beautifully and the 3D, so far for most games the 3D is just an effect, but the way the camera pans around your player it actually helps when shooting on the net as you can actually see the line of you shot. The 3D is WAY more than a gimmick in this game and actually makes the game 1000x more immersive.

Check out a new Resident Evil Mercenaries trailer:

Visually, it looks pretty incredible. Capcom sure knows how to show the capabilities of the machine. Game comes out in June.



And in other news, the 3DS had the biggest first-day sales of any handheld in Nintendo's history:
