There are moments when I can't tell if Nintendo makes things in short supply to build up hype or if they're just being stupid. Case and point the New 3ds Face plates, since scalpers bought all of them and some of them go for 300 dollars ebay.Semi-DemiFiend said:Neat I guess.
All I can say is that they should've made this thing way earlier and gone with the non "XL" sizing so it would be somewhat cheaper and be compatible with those cover plates they seem so reluctant to produce.
If its like the gameboy mirco it dropped the backwards compatibility with the DS.altnameJag said:I mean, I've been wanting a new3ds, but while the 3D is a neat gimmick I can live without it, so win for me?
Accoding to Gamespot, DS compatibility is still in.kilenem said:If its like the gameboy mirco it dropped the backwards compatibility with the DS.altnameJag said:I mean, I've been wanting a new3ds, but while the 3D is a neat gimmick I can live without it, so win for me?
Don't be silly, they were already in the 2D > 3D camp to start with.American Fox said:How are kids supposed to enjoy Senran Kagura without the 3D?
Over in the UK, Game says ?133. This is about ?40-?50 cheaper than the New 3DS XL, which appears to be the only production model of the 3DS left.008Zulu said:My local retailer has preordering available. Only $200AU. $40 cheaper than the 3DS.
With how many people ridicule the decision for the 2DS design, I don't see it weird that they go back to the clamshell.Elvis Starburst said:Now we're just back to it again. Weird
As long as it's getting it's own games, it's not sabotaging itself. Of course the line up of games for the switch is still limited, but as long as I can't play Switch games on my 3DS, this will not sabotage the Switch or 3DS.Johnny Novgorod said:Stop sabotaging your own products.
I don't see Pokemon on the Switch, at least not in its current iteration - a small, pixely, top-down mobile game. If they finally went with a "proper" 3D world ala Breath of the Wild, sure. That looks good if you blow it up on TV. But considering Nintendo's baby-step stance on the evolution of the Pokemon franchise (they've done little but throw in more colors and animations since Gold/Silver), I don't think the next Pokemon game would look good on a TV, therefore it probably would crop up in a handheld-only system.Kaimax said:The only titles that will really break the status quo is a Monster Hunter and pokemon Title finally released for the Switch.
Funny thing is that there are some 3DS games that don't even HAVE 3D as a feature.ShoobieDoobie said:So it's just a 3DSXL with the 3D turned off?
