Price recently went down to $169, but I still don't plan on buying one soon, at least until the crappy battery is fixed. I had enough of those issues with my Droid 2. >.<' Also, I want a new Zelda game released on it.

As long as it's not a main game.

Well, it doesn't have to be another Ganondorf story like the consoles usually are, but I do want a Zelda game that's not a port/remake.

Looks like we might have a second circle pad on 3DS.

Agreed. Launch buyers got screwed over with a lot of initial remakes, bad pricing and incomplete 3DS overall. I mean we got a major price drop and new games will be coming out for it and this second circle pad.

You'd think they'd make stopping the headaches, dizziness and torpedo vomiting a priority, but alas, I'm sure people on the fence and the people who got sick will consider (re)buying this now.

Yeah, they should have made it a priority. My eyes weren't hurt from 3DS but I witnessed people who's did.

There may be some good competition when the Vita comes out.

3DS has to really step up their game as far as games go or else Vita will obliterate it still.

Looking at that design, I'm going to say, fuck this and wait until it actually becomes a part of the console itself instead of this God-awful design.

Yeah, way to lop side the system, Nintendo.

Thanks for the old news Prince :3

3DS users can use this to hang out with other 3DS owners and meet new people. I wonder how small gamestop stores will handle this.

That's actually really awesome. They should be doing this with PS3 games lol.

I don't know what you would call small but the Gamestop in my town is smaller than the two bedrooms in my house combined. Hell I think it might just be a bedroom and a half....

New color unveiled

Not bad. I wish they would do a blue rendition like the original GBA SP.

Same. The GBA SP had the best colors. The blue was so awesome and the red was amazing too. The DS downgraded in terms of color (minus the Triforce special DS).

It'll probably be a limited edition like the DS Lite.

For anyone who actually cares these are the 10 free GBA games that I and many others got for buying a 3DS early

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
F-Zero Maximum Velocity
Kirby & The Amazing Mirror
Mario Kart: Super Circuit
Mario vs. Donkey Kong
Metroid Fusion
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Wario Land 4
WarioWare, Inc.: Minigame Mania
Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3

Pretty nice, especially Sacred Stones.

Of course. It's an underrated Fire Emblem as well.
