When I get it (late november, probably)
I'll open the box slowly, then take the stuffz out, and politely grab the 3DS.
Then I'll stare at it for a while with my eyes full of love. Then I'll turn it on and configure it.

Once I'm done, I'll take some pictures and open some games I'll get with it (one of them, of course, Ocarina of Time)

Nobutsrsly, I'll probably play around with the AR cards and such since I won't have a 3DS game until u.talk.back gives me some more surveys. Unless GameStop does a free game or $50 gift card deal. I find the likelihood of that happening to be low though since they would have announced it by now.

First I'll make sure I put a screen protector on the touch screen (I don't play without protection ;D) then fire up Ouendan (A time honored system test I started with EBA when I got my lite and continued with Ouendan DSi) and jam out to Ready Steady Go. After that I'll fire up the Mii maker and put myself in it and then bust out them AR cards. Might also snap a few 3D pics of the dogs. Hopefully the whole Dead or Alive thing will be figured out by then (and it'll be a launch title like I'm hoping, haven't found a definitive answer yet) and be in my hands. If not then I'll make the most of what comes with it till the games I have pre-ordered finally catch up.

1) Do a unboxing video on launch day

2) Fiddle around with it, play around with camera, settings, entire 3ds etc...

3) Do a review on launch day too

Unboxing, taking stuff out from least important to most. When I hold the 3DS in my hands I will have an insta-orgasm. Then I will open my Hori protection filters and apply them on the screens, charge the 3DS until fully charged (careful not to power it on at all until this is complete), and pop in SSFIV3D and play for 4 hours straight on maximum 3D!

Oh my God do I LOVE Ouendan. One of my all time favorite rhythm games....

I hope they make a 3... IN THREE DEE. It could be really amusing and be pretty fun. And with the 3DS cart size they could fit a lot of songs...

Isn't Ouendan played on the touch screen? How would taht work when only the top screen can display IN THREE DEE?

The actual gameplay is on the touch, but the story they throw in with the song is on the top. I think they could have fun with that. Remember the Dodgeball story they had in the first one? Or what about the whole alien invasion in EBA? Picture lasers shooting off all over the place! It wouldn't change the gameplay at all, but it could be used for a little extra fun with the stories. I'm just hoping for a third one to come out at all, and that the developers play it smart and disable region locking for that game. (If it's true that the locking is on the card.) Or at least give me that EBA2 I was promised. :/

I will open it in the store, check for damage and after that (if is in good state) putting it in my bag and return to home, then I will leave it on for the first discharge of the battery, last, I will plug the energy in.

My check will be:
360° look at the console for damage.
Control for dead pixel, my original DS and DSi was both hit by dead pixel.....NEVERMORE!!!
