Nintedo needs to release a new battery that doesn't make the 3DS look like it's carrying extra weight.

technologymob4818d ago

I imagine if this product does well they will consider it... It really needed something to boost the battery life, either as standard or as an add-on.

Well its doing very well so far. I think the preorders out did the DS's(or wii, I forget)

kesvalk4817d ago

the preorders outdid everything...

not that this counts too much, prolly next gen consoles pre-orders will outdo the 3DS and so on ad infinitum...

Masterchef20074818d ago

We all know Nintendo they are just going to create a 3DS lite that will bring better battery life to the table.

technologymob4818d ago

It's a good price. I'd get add-on at $29 too!

offdawall4818d ago

really dont see the point in buying 3ds ... seems the same as ds just with gimmicky 3d and psp graphics ..... no flame bait but does anyone agree ??

Michael-Jackson4818d ago

It's about the games, I don't really care for 3d so it's a bonus.

heroicjanitor4818d ago

Would you have preferred if they just kept the ds then?

Masterchef20074818d ago

@heroicjanitor

No. But i would have liked it if it was priced the same as the DS at launch which was 150€. Paying 100€ more for a feature that i dont really want doesnt seem worth it to me.

difference between ds and 3ds:
better game
3d
girometer
augmet reality
slide pad
street pass
sweet spot
better online
better gfx
motion control

difference between the psp and psp2
better gfx
no umd
better games
better online
2 touch screen
2 joy stick
girometer
compas
augmented reality

you see its pretty much tie and no the 3ds is no only about 3d if you think so well you missing the point
its like saying psp2 only has 2 joystick!

and yes psp2 has better tech(horsepower and all that)

found a picture of it, it would look good with the black one but the blue one would look off in it.

Never played any of these versions, but if they're as good as everyone says, I will have to pick them up for 3DS.

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.

MeteorPanda2431d ago

but...you customize your own characters now? l dont like that boys neck. holy shit it's about as strong as a twig

Antnee5342431d ago

I understand that, but if you pick a boy you get the worse choices.

MeteorPanda2431d ago

oh for sure. The franchise just shits on the male version more and more per new entry, lol

Antnee5342430d ago

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.
