I don't have this game yet, but I played it on my friend's 3DS yesterday. Want. Do want. It was incredibly fun, although hard to get used to.
I do have to say, though, that I think the main reason the 3DS sales aren't going well is because of Nintendo's reaction to the fact that the 3DS isn't selling well. Because it initially didn't sell as well as they hoped, they're reluctant to release new titles onto it (as we've seen with 2 (technically 3) new Pokemon games being developed for DS instead), and thus the 3DS suffers further because people have no incentive to buy one. I hope this game does something to improve that.
