From the viewing angle to the lack of original games and from the likely price to the late release, 411's Chris Lansdell counts down the 8 worst things about the Nintendo 3DS in the latest edition of Elimin8.
This image basically confirms that in Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon we will be seeing an alternate story. While it has been stated by Nintendo multiple times that this was the case, they were never really clear on it.
Why in fucks name did the designs for the mc make it through the planing stages of development? They are by far the worse thing pokemon have produced.
but...you customize your own characters now? l dont like that boys neck. holy shit it's about as strong as a twig
oh for sure. The franchise just shits on the male version more and more per new entry, lol
It's so weird being that the player base is 70/30 male you know. You would think that they would give the males a better choice selection.
Hey! Pikmin is brand new adventure set on the Nintendo 3DS as Captain Olimar's ship crash lands on a mysterious alien planet.
Every time I see 'released on Steam' my heart sinks. Why don't these guys release on GOG instead?
Beware Space Pirates. Beware Metroids. Samus Aran is back and she is locked & loaded.
Im left handed and Ive never used or needed a left handed treatment. The only thing I cant do with my right hand is wright(not well anyways).
I throw, mouse, surf, use scissors and game just like a right handed person. Maybe thats why I dont understand the whole lefthanded thing. I think Im pretty much right handed, but chose to wright with my left when I was little.
Left handed people have always had to play videogames designed for rightys, so he should be used to it.
Not sure, but Im getting a 3ds for sure. If there is a game that makes you use the analogue and stylus at the same time, I guess i would have to put my right hand to the test. I probably wouldnt like that game anyways.
edit- you know the 3ds is looking sweet when his list is full of crappy reasons. Also, there were some new games like kid Icarus and the new RE game. Im sure there will be a bunch of other games that are not just remakes.
Also, how does he know the price and release date of this thing. Or even the complete specs? he doesnt, yet he complains about them?? FAIL.
8. Complaining about the lineup? Seriously? They just announced the damned thing, and they announced several new games. Not to mention the 'old' stuff that most can't wait to play again with upgraded graphics, and in 3D.
7. It's not the most powerful everz? Oh well. You don't hear anyone saying it looks bad, so what's the problem?
6. Ah... Here is the problem. The writer is left handed. It does suck, but for one, lefties may still be accommodated in some way. Two, it isn't as if you can't play with your other thumb, it just isn't ideal.
5. No Nintendo handheld has ever had an analog stick. This one gets one, and immediately people complain that there aren't two. Well guess what? First person shooters aren't going to be the bread and butter for this thing, and most gamers are fine with one. Not to mention that there is still the touch pad...
4. Everyone does want to know the price of this thing. But how can you complain about the price before the price is even released? Also, most people are high balling the price at around $250. We'll see.
3. Yeah. We don't know when it will be released yet. That and the fact that we don't yet know the price probably should have been the #1 and 2. ..
2. Not many were complaining about this at E3. Even so, if you get tired of the 3D effect, guess what? You can turn it off! Imagine that!
1. The entire premise of this one is off. The DS was made for everyone. And the 3DS has a recommendation that very young children as in the under 7 crowd not play it. At least not in 3D.
Almost every one of these was contrived, and bitter sounding. I honestly hope that Nintendo accommodates lefties so you can enjoy this thing to the fullest and don't feel you have to try and contrive reasons people shouldn't be happy about it.
this article should have been titled"the eight reasons i suck as a writer" or "why fanboys should never be allowed to become journalist"
I don't agree with the guy, but I'll approve. I didn't approve earlier because it's not my cup of tea, but he's being hit hard with the reports. I'm not going to blackball his article just because I don't agree with it...
