Dead or Alive: Dimensions, if you're looking for a fighting game.

Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars, if you're looking for a game that plays like Advance Wars.

Should've waited and got a red one....

that feel when you wouldn't mind a 3DS but the 3D effect makes your eyes hurt

oh well, i've always hated glossy plastics

>>105965646
Then he wouldn't get the 20 free games.

>>105965646

I got a black one. Walmart had them for cheap, and I wanted the 20 free games.

>>105965655
Just turn off the 3D.

>>105965645
>Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars, if you're looking for a game that plays like X-COM

Fixed that for you

>>105965756
Should've got the red one that's releasing next month.

>>105965887
Good point.

Still, it's one of the few games worth getting so far. A highly overlooked launch title.

>>105965974

Friend of mine got a 3DS and Ghost Recon yesterday. He said he'd let me borrow GR when he's done, so I don't think I'm gonna buy it.

By the way, my friend code is 2363-5794-1346 for anyone who would like to add me. Post yours and I'll add you.

Unless you already have it on DSi, you should get Shantae: Risky's Revenge.

>>105966133
Cool, cool.

A lot of people don't seem to like RE Mercenaries, but I think the co-op missions are great with a friend.

There's also this game coming this month. I'm not interested, but a lot of people are anticipated it;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shin_Megami_Tensei:_Devil_Survivor

>>105966433
*are anticipating

I'll add you, anon.

>>105966354
Are these games any good?

Why would you just now get a 3DS? They're dropping to $170 MSRP in a week or so.

>>105965645

Wait, does Shadow Wars play like Advance wars? I ignored it purely on being a Ghost Recon game

>look for a $169 3DS
>sold out everywhere in the matter of a day

stay classy poorfags

>>105966547
Check out a gameplay vid. It's not an exact replica, but the gameplay is more-or-less the same.

>>105966645

Huh, okay will do.

>>105966544

walmarts are selling them at 170 now.

>>105966544
20 free games

that you could easily pirate

DID ANYONE GO TO WALMART LOOKING FOR THE PRICE DROP AND IT WASN'T CHANGED YET?

or is it confirmed that they all dropped the price?

Also do you need to buy some bullshit point card to get stuff from the eshop or can I just do it with my credit card?

Added you, Scott.

Does anybody know if Amazon carries prepaid cards? I'd really like to use this credit on Link's Awakening and Shantae.

>August 12th price drop
>Walmart is selling it at it's dropped price
>Get 20 games and price drop

I want to get this, but I'm not sure if I should get insurance on it and how much it is/what it covers.

Any help if you already have one?

>>105966897

You have to scan it apparently.

>>105966897
I personally haven't checked Wal-Mart myself, but I heard a lot of people are buying them from there at $170 yesterday.

Also, you can use your credit card for the eShop, as long as it's Visa or Mastercard.

>>105966897

I can confirmed the price has changed. Two of my local Walmarts changed the price. And you don't need point cards anymore, Nintendo's new payment system works like Steam and PSN.

add me as well
3995-6669-9730

>>105967023
My birthday is on the 16th and my mommy was going to buy me one. I guess I will tell her to check wal mart on her way home then.

how is the piracy on the 3ds

>>105967055
Adding you.

>>105967112 My birthday is on the 16th and my mommy was going to buy me one.

That's some elaborated trolling you got there.

You'll get a couple of idiots to rage at that.

>>105967055

Added you.

>>105967121

Some flashcarts run on it limitedly.

>Nintendo has told MTV Multiplayer that Super Mario 3D Land will be launching November 13th and Mario Kart 7 will be launching December 4th. The website has taken down the dates presumably because Nintendo wanted to announce them personally.

http://mynintendonews.com/2011/08/10/nintendo-mtv-reveals-super-mario-3d-land-and-mario-kart-7-relea
se-dates/My body is ready.

Now, what about my Skyward Sword release date

>70 friends

>>105966847
I enjoy playing them legitimately. For some reason I just can't get into a game if I'm playing it on my computer or even my PSP. Which is fine with me because I have money to spare. I can understand poorfags not caring one way or another.

>>105967055
>>105967156
What's the point of adding random stangers? Especially if you don't own any multiplayer games.

>>105967398
Derp... I never pressed enter on the hyperlink part...

>>105967398
Good shit, gotta lay down pre-orders for those. Everyone's going to clamor for those two titles once the holidays draw near.

>>105967595

Adding you.

>>105967592

It's nice to have people to play against that you can play with frequently. Much more depth than random matchmaking, even if they are strangers.

>>105967487

>my computer or even my PSP

Do people are not aware you can actually emulate games on DS, Lite, DSi, and DSi XL?

But if you want to be an idiot and pay for roms, then go ahead and be my guest.

>>105967592
I have a few multi-player titles.

>>105967749

legal roms.

Anybody know why it keeps telling me I'm offline, even though the top screen says I'm connected to the internet?

>>105967887

i get this too.

whenever i got to the friend list im offline for awhile.

then i get online.

>>105967727
Cool. I added you as well

>>105967824

10 year old legal roms to be exact.

>>105967749
The emphasis on PSP was that it's not what I play it on, it's the fact that I don't have it legally. It's a dumb hang up but it doesn't hinder me financially. It doesn't make me an idiot, either. My low intelligence does.

>>105967887

Yeah it's kinda glitchy..

Tap the bottom screen, your little mii a couple of times and you should sign in.


Also add me people

1676 3724 0151

Besides Zelda, there's not really any game that's worth owning until November 13th when Super Mario 3D Land comes out. :(

>>105968088
Just added you.

So guys i need help, i could buy either:

Street Fighter 4

RE: Mercenaries

A PS2 (i already had one but gave it to my cousin, and i already have a 360/PS3/Wii)

>>105968136
Starfox 64 3D
Shinobi

Out of curiosity, how do you get these 20 games?

I'm considering going to Walmart and getting the 170 ds, but I'm still confused about the 20 games?

Do you download them?

>>105968297
You have too much shit, stop worrying about what to buy, and go play something you already own.

>>105968080

> it's the fact that I don't have it legally

You mean you never owned any of those original games back when they were brand new?

Are you underage or something?

I'm adding everyone in this thread, don't forget to add me

>>105968334
Like I said, nothing worth owning until November.

>>105967290
I read it as he was joking because /v/ looks down on people who get gifts from their parents still because they're jelly.

>>105968348
You have to log into the eShop before the 12th. Only then are you valid for the Ambassador program.

The NES games come to us September 1st, the GBA games either November or December.

>mfw i try to add someone but i already have them on my list

>>105965645
Add me?

>>105968501
>log into the eShop

How do I do that? Do I get a certain code or something?

Thank you for helping btw.

>>105968636
Just log-in to the e-shop, like you would buy something.

ALL nintendo have to do.. ALL they have to do is let us fucking message people on your friends list.

And maybe some pictochat software with online chatting between friends

But it nintendo so NOPE

>>105968501
WHAT?!? We have to wait until fall/winter for the GBA games??? WTF?

>>105968369
Actually, no on both accounts, I'm 22, I just played them when I was at my grandparents. I never actually owned the games and nor do I own them now. My first system was an N64 and I play my Project 64 quite a bit. It helps that I have DS3 Tool.

Like i said in my 3ds thread,
Only the TRUE early ambassadors have these :)

>>105968634
Sure.
>>105968636
If you've updated your 3DS, it should be on the home menu. It's an orange shopping bag.

>>105968696
And they automatically register you?

>>105967887
>>105967055
Added

>>105968634
I added you

>>105968636

Just update the 3DS and you should have the eshop installed.

Then literally just open it with a working wireless connection and that's you sorted

>>105968756
I'm really glad they made preview videos less annoying to watch.

>>105968703
The lack of pictochat on the 3DS has always baffled me.
>>105968709
I don't think it was ever confirmed that it would be that late, I personally hope they don't release them all at once because I don't want to be flooded with games, since some of the GBA games I've actually never played before.

>>105968703
They're giving 3DS users an updated version of DSi's "Flipnote" for free. I'm sure a new Pictochat is on the way.

>Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars, if you're looking for a game that plays like Advance Wars.
>like Advance motherfucking Wars
REALLY?

I've already added some of you fellows. Lemme know if you add me.

>>105969031

Hmm... Not really.

It's grid/turn based.

YouTube it.

>>105968756
And free Excite Bike, true ambassadors got 21 free games.

>>105969031
See for yourself!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2flL0u3ylE

That's also a review, btw. He pretty much hits the nail on the head, talking about the game.

so how many rows do you have with your home menu and how do you organize your stuff.

i put all my stuff horizontally

1st row : games (includes virtual console and DSi ware)
2nd row : system stuff (system settings, nintendo sound/music and mii stuff)
last row: etc (pokedex 3D, netflix, Nintendo video,etc)

>>105969070

1676-3724-0151

>>105969221
Looks more like fire emblem with guns

Add me, Chris - 4596-9614-4769

>>105969246
I have it zoomed out 3x5

I have the cartridge window in the center and games surrounding it. The other two rows on the ends of the window are media (3DS sound, Netflix, Nintendo video, etc.)

I think I'm going to change this, though.

>>105969461

the lack of partners is worrying.

anybody else lookin forward to spiderman, edge of time and sonic generations?

I've added everyone in this thread.

>>105969411
Maybe it was a premature statement. I apologize, but it's still a pretty good game.
>>105969373
>>105969461
Adding you two.

Add me bros. I want to have a large friend count when Kid Icarus comes out for some multiplayer action.

Already added everyone from this thread.

Interested in samurai warriors...

But the AI look so fucking stupid and it looks kinda repetitive..

But I keep... Wanting... It...

>>105969540
I'm actually more interested in Sonic Generations on 3DS than the console versions, but that's mainly because they stated the 3DS version will have completely different zones.

Hey guys please watch this, i just uploaded it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsJRxETpkA8

>>105969675
that's not always a good thing. hopefully they'll put some effort into it.

I'm also hoping that edge of time is a direct console port.

>>105969653
Same

>>105969221
Looks cool, thanks
I'll add you when I get my 3DS back from a friend

>>105969813
That's true. If anything, I'll wait for some gameplay vids and reviews.

>>105969596
>>105969070
>>105969461
Adding

>>105969785

I've had that happen while testing out Netfix. I don't think it's a serious concern.

>>105969540

Yes yes YES!

Apparently the spiderman game will be identical to the wii version!

This can go 1 of 2 ways..

Bad way.. Green lantern 3DS/Wii which was an abomination

Good way... If the game is just like web of shadows and shattered dimensions was on wii

No footage at ALL yet so I'm getting kinda worried

>>105969920
Me either, happened to me with netflix as well. Dosent do it anymore though.

>>105969070
Added you.

So im looking at picking one of these up. What are the "must have" games so far?

Aww yeah, late again.

>>105970135
OOT
dead or alive: dimensions

>>105970135
At full price? Zelda. That's it. Under $20, Ghost Recon, Samurai Warriors, Street Fighter.

>>105970249
Is Street Fighter that much worse than DoA?

>>105970196
What in god's name is that thing

>>105970383
DoA has a lot more content and (IMO) is overall more fun.

>>105970383
I find DoA SOOO much better

>>105970401

>doesn't know the motherfucking radish spirit

what are you, seven?

>>105970401

Well it's a scene from spirited away and...

wait you aren't familiar with it are you?

>>105970135

Must have?

Ocarina.

Quite a number of other games but it all depends on your personal taste.

The whole "lolilo no games" isn't totally bullshit

There are a LOT in development and will all be released next year.

But as of right now? It's slim pickings..

>>105970571
Well put.

>>105970135
A lot of people dislike it but I fucking love RE: Mercs. It's my most played 3DS game (60 hours) and it's so much more than just a port of Mercs from RE4&5. I seriously recommend it.

I need to get over to Target and get GR, it's on sale for $17 and the only other decent game next to OOT that's out currently. Not much into fighters.

>>105969675
>>105969813
The developers already stated it's nowhere near as goood or polished as the console version. ;-;

mfw Joe Scott and Jaxun are in this thread and it's exactly like it was last night

Keili
Chris
Aku
Jaxun
Scott

Add me back, thanks.

>>105970746
GR?

>>105970905
Lol yeah

>>105970905
>>105970906
Add me
>>105970908
Ghost Recon

>be happy that 3DS sold shit cud the games in uk seriously nosedived in price

>DOA and Samurai still a bit too pricey I'll wait a while more

>suddenly shot starts picking up steam and prices are rising again

Oh fuck oh fuck

>>105970790
yea but they're fixing it.

>>105970905

well...


yeah.

i highly recommend getting some DSi ware if you never had a DSi before. especially if you arent pleased with the current library

>>105970905
did you ever find out if you know me or not

Also CHIRS I added you

>>105970906
Added :)

>>105971124
I decided to get Dark Void Zero last night.

It's not bad, especially for $5.

Is it just me or was DSi made like crap.

>Why can't I do anything with all these friends?

Fucking nintendo

>>105971298
You can play dead or alive with them

>>105971282
I've honestly only held one twice, and both times were just to fuck around with flipnotes.

They're officially on sale at Target now too, if you feel gross about going to Wally World

>>105971298

Hoping that'll be fixed by some developers. The lack of online Star Fox pisses me off, but surely Mario Kart and Smash Bros. will make use of it.

I might get RE Mercs if it's cheap. Does it have any kind of chat/communication or are you stuck being mute?

>>105971298
You can play Dead or Alive, Street Fighter, or Mercenaries with them.

>>105971298
lol that's pretty much what I was thinking.

>>105971133

Oh, you're practically on the opposite side of the country, So I did not in fact know you.

>>105971267
where do you get the prepaid cards? all i can find is wii points

>>105971282
It's a fucking grease magnet.

>>105971371
They were way too easily broken. I went through 4.

Anyone know what the limit on friends is? Is there even a limit? I'm at 82 right now (almost all from /v/) and I'm wondering how long this will go.

>>105971462
DS phat master race here

>>105971452

I found them at Best buy.

and at target.

>>105971446
Do you live in CA?

>>105971267
Funny, the handheld game Capcom made on the side for Dark Void is better then the actual console game. How often does that happen?

And just a quick survey, what 3D setting do you all use? I use max cause I'M HARDCORE OH YEAH BURN THOSE EYE BALLS.

>>105971547

100 I believe?

>>105971547

100?

>>105971547

100 I read, but nintendo might change it in a firmware update.

magnets
as many magnets as you can afford

>>105971427

Dunno about the other but street fighter is absolutely terrible.

Can't invite the other person to even let them know you are waitin in a lobby.

Shame.

>>105971267
I tried to watch the trailer for dark void zero
>Letterboxing due to dsi app

The only other time I can remember this happening is the Astro Boy game.

The PS2 version sucked, but the GBA version was really good.

Can I still buy a 3ds at walmart and get the 20 free games today?

>>105971772
Ah.

>>105971547

Not sure, but I added you.

>>105971745

>>105971758
some states apparantly charge tax on both, but you can at least change your zip code on the store to get out of paying the tax for the download.

yessir

>>105971745
Adding you now

>>105971861
Yes, before friday

Hey Kolby, I added you...

Add me Kolby and Alec.

Adding

Alex
Kolby

Add me back, thanks.

OP's pic- IS THAT A BLACK CIRCLE PAD
SMELLS LIKE PROTOTYPE LOL

They really need to make it so you're alerted when someone adds you, and can just accept it.

>>105971899
yea i know that. I was just hoping to use that loophole to get out of paying tax for the card.

>>105972458
Yes. Just, yes.

Waiting in a lobby for someone to kick my ass in DOA here.

>>105972446

You seen those little rubber add ones you can buy?

They look awesome.

You can get gamecube analogue ribbed...

I bought a 3DS that has a dead pixel on the touch screen and absolutely refuses to connect online.

Luckily the dead pixel is outside of the range of DS games played in the original aspect ratio and is in a generally unnoticible area. But the internet thing is a bigger problem because I want my free 20 games.

First time in my 20 years as a gamer that I have ever bought a Nintendo product that was defective in any way.

Don't ever buy any systems from Gamestop, even if they're new. Always shop at Wal-mart, Target, or Best Buy. They won't shuffle around the old launch products and keep the new ones for employees like Gameshit will.

Wooo up to 20 friends. And I just got this fucker yesterday.

>>105972660
Here i come

>>105972660
Gimmie a minute and I'll play. I'm not very good either so don't worry about getting your ass kicked.

>>105972699

That really sucks? Will gamestop let you go in an exchange it?

>>105972787

Damn you!

I can't figure out how to get past the boss level in the 2nd world of Mighty Milky Way

>>105972660
this is great

Sort of relevant, the mail just came in and my Mario Party playing cards from Nintendo Club came in.

I've been meaning to get playing cards for general use, what better set than a free one?

It's weird, the cards all make one big picture when put together.

>top played game

>NOT spongebob squarepants

Come on guys

I missed out on the ds, and was wanting a pokeymans game. Which should I get?

>>105973195
Launch the first enemy into the barrier of enemies then make your way to and destroy the next planet. Pass through the gap and be careful not to land on one of the enemies.

>>105973414
oh that's fucking awesome, brb ordering right now

>>105973569
probably black or white

best graphics
most pokemon

>>105973569

This isn't really nostalgia speaking, but Black and White feel almost boring.

>>105973712

HG/SS is top tier, and the Ruby/Sapphire remakes will be phenominal.

>>105973622
It costs like 500 coins, I think? I'm saving up for those classy Hanadufa cards (or whatever they're called).

But now? Gonna play serious card games like a pro.

My dick gets hard thinking about the future in homebrew and hacking...

All dem emulators as channels.

All the way from nes and snes to mame, neo geo...

Free 3DS games.. hopefully being able to have the equivalent of wads for shop titles.

And the homebrew. Oh god the homebrew!

>>105973599

but there's my problem. jumping from the second planet alone can't get me onto where that huge one is so i have to use a candy up.

so then when im on that planet i make another one then jump off of it when the big one is destroyed. but i always hit the wall instead of landing on the planet with the two enemies on it.

>3DS thread
>minimal trolling
>summer
>daytime

huh

>>105973712
I've heard good things about b&w, but I almost just wanna get heart gold soul silver, just because it has recognizable pokemon that aren't... Stupid.

>>105973820

Pokemon Black and White are so much better than Pearl and Diamond.

Probably my favorite pokemon games. i personally find G/S/C to be overrated.

>>105973134
AHAHA THIS IS AWESOME

>>105973959
I know right? Normally we can't have one until late at night.

>>105973993

b&w has the most mature story of any game i've played in a LONG, LONG time

its true

>>105973993

But wotter!?

>>105973959
Miracles.

Since we're on the subject of pokemon.

How about a battle?

>>105974160
How's the online play work in black and white?

The storyline is more mature, but it feels so forced.

Team Plasma just feels so.... lame

>>105974450

You want lame teams? Look at team galatic.

I don't even remember what they were trying to accomplish.

>>105974073
EFFING LAG I CANT EVEN MOVE

>>105974384

Like all the others so far to have online.

friend codes.

My names eo.. Does it show what I'm playing? Software in use?

>>105974605
DoA is amazing, but the online lag is heart-breaking.

Hopefully whatever Pokemon comes to 3DS is good. I want it to be like Pokemon Stadium combined with the normal RPG elements.

>>105974705
Yeah, it shows what you're playing/using when you're online.

So is the red 3DS coming to 'Murrika or Yurop?

>>105974747
So, like pokemon xd gale of darkness?

Adding everyone in this thread, add me if you want 0946-2402-4331

>>105974122
Funny thing about B&W is that it's so much more focused on story than previous games that I was hooked throughout the whole thing. And as soon as I finished the story, I messed around for maybe 2 weeks with the rest of the map, the subway, and dream world. But the game suddenly felt empty without the plot. Haven't touched it since April/May.

At the same time, I definitely feel that it's the best pokemon gen yet. Maybe if I finished building my team and got more into wifi battles, or if I was back in the dorms with a bunch of other players, I'd get back into it.

>>105974073
>>105974605

Yeah I stopped because of the lag. That + 3D effect was kinda bugging the eyes a bit.

Good fight, though.

http://youtu.be/XJ53VeEJikE

here. You're welcome.

If you dont want a DS at the end of this video you are a wanker.

>>105973899
After you get destroy the first barrier you should have two candies launch northeast of the first medium planet and make a small planet northwest of the big one. As soo as you land on the small planet run to the other side and jump to the big planet. When you land on the big planet STOP and wait until it is about to explode. Just before is explodes, jump northwest and make a small planet in in your path as close as possible (make sure you have room between planet and walls). Quickly run around the planet and jump south-southeast to the last planet.

>>105974841

Right, but with more of a classic feeling. Top down camera.

provided you're alive at the end, that is long as shit

If you live in the UK and want a 3DS this picture might be of help. £15 cheaper than what Game and the like are going to.

You get the 10 nes games strarting September 1st, they include mairo bros, legend of zelda, ice climbers, ballon fighter, and shit like that. You will get 10 gameboy games before the end of the year. Those include kirby amazing mirror, yoshi's island, mario 3, wario micro games etc.

What I liked the most about pokemon B/W was that it wanted to break from the norm.

From having multiple rivals to Team Plasma actually being like a team and not just the bad guys. And actually having a story for once too.

>>105975714
Yep, it's £230 here in the UK. Over £100 more expensive...

With any luck Sony will drop the price a bit here since it's over an equivalent $100 more expensive in the UK and Europe.

That's what we get for buying launch consoles. Though I did get mine for £175 and a 2 free games (won one from an independent shop in an SSF4 tournament). If you bought one yesterday I feel for you.

>>105975838

Maybe someday I'll be able to finish it.

Not likely with the 3DS though, every time I try to pause I shut the damn thing off.

I need a power button cover.

Street Fighter 4 is same as any other console except that the backgrounds are static,
RE: Mercenaries is great until you notice the horrible sound quality, but online is fun
PS2 is great if you are staying home more than going out, which you are on /v/ so i assume its not the latter

Scott did you figure that shit out yet?

It's going to bother me if you don't.

>>105975002

hmm ok.

so i had the right idea then

so to summarize.

1. Jump back and forth to destroy the barrier of enemies.
2. Make a planet near the huge one and land on the big planet.

3. Wait and make another close to where you can land on the planet with two enemies.

>I have $25 in Amazon credit. I just got a 3DS yesterday and Ocarina of Time 3D. Is there anything else I should get?

Dragon Quest V. You can get it for $20 on Amazon right now.

It used to be $40-$50 used.
