Posted March 1, 2011 ..what bit of his thumb is he brutalizing that D-Pad with..? I also noticed from that video how the cosmos black 3DS seems to have more of a matt finish on the interior, unlike the glossy aqua blue.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 1, 2011 ..what bit of his thumb is he brutalizing that D-Pad with..? I also don't understand people who play with the knuckle of their thumb, I mean it makes so much more sense to use the tip of your thumb, not to mention that you can probably control it more precisely. I suppose it is all a matter of person preference, and since the d-pad is lower down on the 3DS perhaps it is uncomfortable to do it otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 1, 2011 Amazing. *Imagines an AR card the size of a football pitch* I'm curious if mini ones also work. I can't wait to mess around with them myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 1, 2011 I played on one today at Game, got to say I was very impressed. Didn't play games just messed around with the AR cards, camera etc. I was really impressed with the 3D effect, it's just like a 3D except no glass are needed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 1, 2011 Ridge Racer review http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-03-01-ridge-racer-3d-review?page=1 Not a bad start. That is quite encouraging The early Ridge Racer games were pretty good, particularly Ridge Racer 64 and Ridge Racer Type 4 but I haven't played one since Ridge Racer V which was, to say the least, a little disappointing I'd quite like to try Ridge Racer 3D at some point, but probably not to first gmae on my 3DS 'to buy' list Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 1, 2011 Screw Ridge Racer, give reviews on games we care about. How ever little amount of games that may be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 1, 2011 Don't know if this one's been posted yet, but Computer & Video Games has reviewed Street Fighter IV 3D. Sorry, can't post links yet. Post count, y'know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 1, 2011 Ridger Racer and Pilotwings are my two launch picks. Ridge Racer was always a good series. If this is up to standard, it'll be great fun to play in bed, zooming round the circuits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 1, 2011 I hope these are not pity reviews now. I want these games to "play" great as well as look great. We all love a game to show off the new functionality but it's gotta last a while too. I remember yoshi's touch and go getting good reviews but in the original Ds' time.... Despite the game lasting about 5 minutes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 1, 2011 I loved yoshi touch and go It was short but I liked score attacking on it so it lasted for me. If that isn't your thing then yeah, 5 minutes and it's over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 2, 2011 No mention of GBA, NES or SNES games on 3DS = Why TurboGraphx and GameGear over GBA? Can't say much for GameGear as I didn't play/own many games for it (although the Lion King was ace on it as was Streets of Rage 2) but the TurboGraphx-16 has some of the best Shmups on any console so I'm all for them coming to the 3DS. Shmups would look great in 3D and while I doubt the VC games will be redone for 3D, they'll still look and play great with the circle pad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 2, 2011 Despite being a Sega fan, I never liked the Game Gear, as the motion was too blurry. It might just have been the quality of the LCD screen at the time though. Pretty strange that there's no GBA though. If the Wii can do the N64, surely the 3DS can do GBA? I want Ninja Five-O! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
