I bought a 3DS Today

I feel horrible about posting this, or even admitting it, but I bought a 3DS Today. We get a bonus on our next paycheck at work so to be honest, I saw no harm. Still got $250+ in the bank. Price drop really helped, as did the employee discount I get.

I feel like a bit of a Hippocrate cause I did bash it quite a bit when it first came out, but to be honest. It's a pretty good system, I bought one in Cosmo Black and bought Zelda to go with it. So far I've been loving it, and I only have one issue. My DSTwo doesnt currently work on it, but I'm workin on that, 3DS is still on Menu version 1.00-01U

I actually think I'm looking forward to some of the huge releases, like Starfox, Mario Kart. Hell, the thought of decent 3DSWare tickles me pink. Hoping we get some Blazblue and at least some decent rpgs.

Sorry for such a short blog, but it seems significant enough for me to warrant posting.

More/stronger depth and 3D plz. :lol:[/quote]

No dev will seriously focus any game on 3D considering how imperfect the technology is and the fact that it's not accessible to a good deal of people (either they can't see it at all, it looks bad to them, or it gives them headaches).

....Dude ... they already put 3d in games pretty well (other words they already have) and about those "not accessible to a good deal" , those people can
adjust the slider if the initial level of 3D is to much. So crazy amount of depth and 3d isn't far fetch.


"How imperfect the technology" there is only one "problem" and that viewing angle(or what ever you call it).

Plus ,come on man, let me have my moment.

What he meant was that there won't be a game that is BASED on 3D technology. It can have it, but it can't be the key feature for several reasons.

Which is true, but (apparently) the ratio of people who are deaf to people who are "3D blind" is rather large, for different reasons.

It's a difficult thing to tread on, as 3D is still considered "new" technology. People are wary, no thanks to idiots like The Sun.

You should have waited for the red 3DS. ;)[/quote]

I actually hate the Red 3DS. It's too bright for me to be honest, my DSLite's in a red case and it kinda drives me nuts too.

Cosmo Black was a Neutral color and I like it, so I went with it.

Besides with our sales coming up at work, it's likely I wouldn't be able to find one by next week, or for weeks after.
