Nintendo, as everyone knows by now, don’t play the same game as Microsoft and Sony. Nintendo are happy to live in their own unique little world and carry on cranking out games and hardware that no-one else would. It’s why many gamers love them.
We all know how dangerous 3D is to little ‘uns, so it’s about time Nintendo did something to save our kids! Lord knows we can’t do it by taking responsibility of what our children play.
You also expect parents to be aware of the fact there’s a slider on every version of the 3DS that can be turned all the way down so that the 3D effect is off. It would be the act of a negligent parent to NOT buy a 2DS is what some might say.
Castlevania’s twilight years were some of its best, but they were not enough to avert the dramatic end of the series as we knew and loved it.
Someone should fire to the lowest pit the guy on Konami that thought mobile gaming was the future and destroyed MGS, Castlevania and other franchises in the way.
Dan Rizzo says "So this is where we’re at with Nintendo and their continuous colloquy of tedious arguments against emulation. It’s funny how a company that’s so against open-source emulation, uses it to sell commercial products such as the NES and SNES Classic Mini, but release a minimal quantity to drum-up all the hype behind it, only to leave a majority of its fanbase disappointed when struggling to acquire the now collector’s piece."
someone made a good point that older music, movies, and books are far more easier to get access to than games. I think the industry needs to make a change. It's crazy that so much is gone now and I'm willing to pay for the games, but there's literally no way to get them now.
I can't speak to music as I don't collect it, and books are still quite accessible through paperbacks & hardcover releases. But movies & tv shows are starting to have a problem with accessibility now, with all these streaming-exclusives. Before everything would get a DVD or Blu-ray release, but now if content is pulled from a streamer, like happened with some HBO Max stuff recently, there's often no physical disc option or even a digital download through a service like iTunes. They're just lost media, same as delisted digital-only games.
As of late March 2023, it will no longer be possible to make purchases in Nintendo eShop for the Wii U system and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. It will also no longer be possible to download free content, including game demos.
No surprise, but a sad day for gaming with hundreds of exclusive titles to be lost forever
it's sad that no one is actually outraged by that piece of news ut it's even worse to Sony because Nintendo acknowledges that going forward they would only release classic content thru the Nintendo online membership.
Basically, they are killing the store to create value for Switch and the Nintendo membership.
Still I don't know what functions 3DS do o.O
It's for young children who can't view 3D.
Hey you! Yeah you, the person reading this comment; It's not for you!
Reggie already stated that it is for 6 year old kids. So that's that right?
Idiots. It's for idiots.
You can spend a very similar amount of money for an original 3DS these days with a bit of searching. Just turn the slider down...
As much as I hate the design, I might get one eventually if I can get it on sale for $99 or under. I really just want it for Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Zelda and SMT. My Vita will still be my main handheld as it much better suits my needs as a gamer.
