Is your 3DS worth it?

[Mr. Omega]

Mostly been using it for the DS backlog, but i have played Mario 3D Land and Kid Icarus Uprising. There's also been a bunch of surprisingly good downloadable games like Mighty Switch Force, Sakura Samurai and Pushmo.

I do wish Nintendo would start releasing GBA games for the virtual console, but so far I've had enough content for it to be worth it. Plus there's all the games coming out for it like Luigi's Mansion and Fire Emblem. Plus the sequel to 999.

I found it considerably more worth it than the PlayStation Vita. It has several awesome games AND the entirety of the DS library to back it up.

But I ended up getting mine after the price cut. The irony? I paid the same price I would've paid before the price cut.

Why?

My friend got that one too, he traded in his original to get it. Also

OT: I'd say it's worth it. My favourites so far are Tales of the Abyss and Kingdom Hearts. I got it before the price drop (got it on release) so I got 10 free NES games and 10 free GBA games. The game library is still growing, but it's already become quite good. I am looking forward to see Paper Mario come.

Starfox 64 on the 3DS is very fun, thank you.

It's alright not the best console ever but thats becouse pokemon and smash bros isn't out yet I only have 3 games for it SM3DL Zelda and Kid Icarus they are all really good the only thing wrong with it is the battery life the e-shop has fewer games than I would hope and they are overpriced here in New Zealand $10 for a NES game is too much for me other than regional difficultys (no netfilx or huluplus) it is fine I just wish they would make a YouTube app for it so I can watch Yogscast and old zero punctuation on it.

I got mine as a gift, Ive only bothered to buy one game for it (ocarina of time) which I havent got around to completing yet (finished it on the 64 years ago) I suppose if I had payed for it i'd be slightly disappointed by the selection of games available for it at this point.

I never turn the 3D on for longer than a few seconds because it makes me feel like my eyeballs are melting.. its usually: 'I wonder what that looks like in 3D' (on) 'cool..' (off)

Theres not really any games out for it that appeal to me yet, At some point I'll probably buy pokemon black/white but it kinda sucks that the only game that I've been meaning to buy for it is a DS title.

Im waiting for them to make a proper 3DS Pokemon game that has some significant improvements to the same game they've been remaking for the past 15 years



Captcha: too bad

So I got mine the DAY before the price drop (which I was super upset about, cuz the same day the red one came out in the states) And I got to thinking if it was worth my money.

For whatever reason, Target had applied the price drop the day before it was supposed to. So I not only got my blue 3DS for the reduced price but I got it as an Ambassador. Sorry you couldn't grab one for less *pat pat*

Anyway: I've been using my 3DS a bit more than my home consoles. I've clocked about 95 hours on Theatrythm and have beaten the two Mario titles that don't involve go-karts (although I think I did beat MK7...). I got my hands on Kingdom Hearts 3DS but I'm having trouble sticking with it like Birth by Sleep or the original (ie: the only other two I've played). Other than the Mario and Final Fantasy games I mentioned before, I got a lot of mileage out of Samurai Warrior Chronicals. The 3D was kind of wasted but it looks fantastic for a launch title on a handheld (especially considering I got it new for under $13)

I can't speak for everyone obviously but my 3DS is definitely worth the money I paid for it. I'm planning on importing a Japanese XL for the Hatsune game, Love Plus and, the River City Ransom anniversary they've got over there...also Monster Hunter and whatever else they have that we won't be getting.

Same here my 360 is gathering dust while I haven't turned off my 3DS in like months. Since TotA came out at least.

NO, that's why I traded it in after transferring my ambassador status.

My 3DS XL though? F*** YES! I love it so much I am even replaying my old DS games again.
