I like how no one is talking about the Nintendo 3DS Price drop

[GrimmJeel]

If they decide too actually make a new super smash bros for it, then I might get it, but the PsVita offers so much more

[Marth]

The price drop now made the pricing reasonable. After a full weeks pay I should have enough for one, meaning my Christmas shopping for my brother is done already besides getting him a game or two to go with it. This thread actually just made my day, because now I know I'll be able to get him a gift this soon and affordable.

[Garamonde]

Well the price drop would be good news for me if/when I decided to get one, but it likely won't be this year.

I feel happy that I got mine four months ago. I'll be kept busy for quite some time with the 20 free games.

I'm pretty freaking happy that they'll be putting Gba games on the Virtual Console. Now all I want is the ability to shoot 3D videos with the camera and I'll be set.

Iwata and other Nintendo execs are willingly taking a pay cut for the 3DS's rocky start, rather than lay off members of their staff.

And that, my friends, is what we call "responsibility." Give Iwata a medal.

[Phantom Killah]

Mad respect for Iwata. It's sad that more companies don't have that kind of honour.

"Nintendo: Not quite as dickish as the other companies"

[ZaeTelapo!]

With this price drop im on the edge of just going ahead and buying it lmao

Oh man, I really wish that more people had this kind of work ethic.

"Yeah, I'm losing a million dollars a year, I'm still making a paycheck that people would die for and that keeps me content enough"

Seriously, I respected Nintendo before, but it was never because of their ethics. I just never considered that. But now? Jesus, I love them even more now.

[Kosheh]

i've seriously got the money sitting on my desk for this and it's ready to go the morning of august 12


the only thing is, despite the fact it's affordable and comes in two colors I actually like...




I still can't see myself purchasing any games for it. But that's OK because I still have DSiWare <_<
(GBA is out of the question, I have 3 incarnations of the GBA and 3 GBCs lying around. Flashcarts for the GBA and GBC. I'm pretty set in terms of games unless they allow seamless multiplayer on them.....then I'll reconsider. Wifi multiplay and I'll friggin sell my old GBA games lol)

Unless nintendo isn't going to be lazy then I can only see this feature being avaible through Fire red and Leaf green.

If they're ever released on the 3ds anyways.

[Shawn]

very earliest i'd get a 3ds is at devil survivor remakes release

i'd rather wait till animal crossing though

Level-5 International gauged interest in which Japan-only game of theirs should be localized

http://www.facebook.com/LEVEL5IA/posts/134026613352672

the Layton/Wright crossover won by a landslide (by that I of course mean half of the 13,000 votes cast)

and since the game is only getting localized if there's a massive amount of interest in it (which the poll showed it does), then that means I just might finally get that reason to buy a 3DS

[RandomRedMage]

Interesting, Though personally I wish more games would get localized. There are a lot of good games out there that would sell nicely, but since the idea of "hardcore gamer" seems to mean, first person shooter fan... we lose out on a LOT of stuff.

the question shouldn't be 'which' Level-5 title should be brought to the US, but 'how many'

and the answer would be 'all of them'
