Anyone worried about the lack of mention of a messaging service? This coupled with the starfix news imreally beginning to lose faith that nintendo are going to rectify their disastrous mistakes.

Absolutely baffling that this wasn't an official thing by Nintendo.

Well, I ended up buying more than I anticipated.  I picked up the Fire Emblem games because I only have the special edition with everything on the one cart. I figured I would snap up the sep

You're using the term disastrous a bit loosely. Not including a message service is not disastrous.

 

Wait until E3 and Nintendo's conference, then start bitching

I'm hoping they put up the E3 3DS game demos up for download.

 

I could actually see that happening.

 

Reggie: 'American NINTENDO 3DS owners got their hands on the eShop yesterday, with original content AND classics from third parties and first parties alike. However, we intend to do more, by bringing E3 2011 to your NINTENDO 3DS!

You will all be able to download demos for the following games......., and videos for these......'

As Serebii stated; we shall see what NINTENDO's new strategy is during their press conference.

If it is not to our liking, we shall unleash GIFs:p

Going to be disappointed.

 

I expect E3 to have a lot of extremely ambiguous "Coming 2012" in it.

Would be good and, quite honestly, I can't think why they wouldn't. It'd be great to have the videos on our 3DS like the "nature" video we got for updating it.

I'm hoping for some good news at E3. Right now, I'm selling my 3DS until convinced otherwise. Frankly I've got better things to play and better things to spend my money on.

I think we'll get it eventually, no chance of sending invites to people on your friend list to join you in a game though, its not the Nintendo way.

 

Plus:

 

Still no mention of possible voice chat in future games, Street Fighter 4 would have been a good game to show it off. If they do release Monster Hunter 3DS it will need voice chat, I aint writing messages with the touch screen while hunting... :nono:

 

Still no DLC in Nintendo Games (Yes, theres only been 3 games) but Pilotwings definitely needs it with extra missions, vehicles, islands etc

 

I have a bad feeling Mario Kart 3DS will have an identical online system to the Wii version, fixed lobby messages, no proper DLC and no voice chat, oh and 8 players online instead of 12.

or else you will DIE Newbie

Thing is, I don't even know which game I would get. There is still no single standout must-have title. So I would drop £180, get a game I wasn't even sure I wanted and when I was finished with it be left with a big hole in my pocket, set to get bigger when OoT arrives (only game I'm actually interested in).

 

So really I think that would be my loss.

If GAME and GameStation have lowered their prices, they haven't changed the labels yet (which is quite possibly the case). The only sort of deal I saw in town today was at HMV - £180 with a game.

 

Anyway, Nintendo have really mucked this up - holding back 1st-party software to let 3rd-parties shine, not setting a sensible RRP... I'm happy with the price I paid for mine, I just don't want the machine to flop.

Yep same here, local stores aren't lowering their prices

 

And i agree they have made too much of a shift for 3rd party games and its hindering sales, and bumping up the RRP because of E3 speculation last year and Hype was a mistake

I want the system to do well, but those prices are painful to look at now, holding my launch model... :red:

Grainger Games, as mentioned above, is the confirmed source for a £149 3DS - and that's in store only I believe.

 

Sounds like GAME and Gamestation are simply price matching Grainger Games again like with the launch price.

Did anyone else have the blue spotpass light on today? I just saw it a few minutes ago and was really excited. As I checked to see what it was, I saw the title "Recommended Update" and was filled with joy. Could this be the browser and shop come early, or was it some kind of other update, like a messaging feature? The text itself said that the update included a 3D video, which made me a bit skeptical, seeing as we already had that in the very first update. I went to the settings to check for an update, and alas nothing was found.

 

So for some reason, I now got the message that I should update my system with an update that I already got notified about and installed more than a month ago. I'm almost certain I got the exact message before, so I'm really confused why I got it again.

 

Did this happen to anyone else?

I wish.

 

Nope, I didn't get any SP yesterday. I did get that Recommended Update message before though... well after I'd already updated. :indeed:

 

Anyway, would be cool if you could post any SpotPass related stuff in this thread:

 

http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30339

 

Make it easier to keep tabs on it and have all SP updates (or lack of them ;)) in one place.

: peace:

 

I just reverted to Moderator mode there for a second, sorry about that. :laughing:
