    The sad part is, I probably will buy one, even though I know I won't play it. It says Nintendo on it, and will have some form of a Zelda game on it. Hopefully a new one, after the Ocarina of Time remake. But even with the Ocarina of Time remake, it's very tempting...

    ... oh God I'm a sad person...

    Most likely when I feel that enough quality titles come out to justify it's price and I have enough to spend. I may also end up waiting for a flashcart though since I just can't see myself paying more than $30 for a handheld game even if it has n64 to gc graphics. Most Gc games cost 5 to $10 and n64 VC titles cost 12 last I looked. I am also waiting for a battery that lasts more than 3 hours to show up so the system actually becomes portable instead of tethered. MML3 I hope is awesome since I will get it for that mostly.

    Three more days until Party time!

    Why can`t it be in Canada?! I would gladly trade in my (broken) DS Lite for 100$ off. Mind you it`s only the shoulder buttons that are broken, but still.
    I can't believe I got the admins to give me a Sesame Street username.

    I love it. Got it this morning. It can get a little dizzying and yes, the AceKard doesn't work. I didn't know it updated. Unless they updated before shipping? Hope there's an update soon and then you can use it. But, I definitely love it. The battery doesn't bother me cos I never go out of my house with a handheld.

    I hope to get one this year if not next year, I saw some of the games they were going to make for it and I was like "AUNT JEMIMA I NEED THAT!" I mostly said that about the splinter cell game. Looks awesome.

    Picked mine up this morning, grabbed Super Street Fighter 4 and Rayman, gotta say I'm enjoying it. Although I feel like the 3DS is somewhat small, though that could just be because I went from a DSi XL to 3DS, feels sorta like going from a Hummer to a Mini Cooper.

    Can anyone tell me why some features aren't available yet? I think it's kinda dumb. You can't access the Internet Browser or eShop, and wont be able to until a firmware update later this year. What the fuck? That doesn't make any sense. Did I miss anything?

    They said those features and some more would not be available until May, supposedly, the eShop was going to be improved, that's why it was delayed.

    Oh okay. Not something I read up on. Not a deal breaker. Luckily I didn't trade in my DS Lite. Especially since the AceKard 2i was disabled out-of-box. I guess it was pre-updated or something. I ended up updating it anyway manually.
