You don't need a 3DS

Sarcastic Gamer takes a step back from the 3DS hype and concludes that it is highly unlikely that you will ever need a 3DS or use it to it's fullest extent.

From the article: "I picked up the original DS at launch. I had incredibly high hopes for a console that had such a unique selling point. This was a game system that you could interact with by touching. The DS seemed to have some revolutionary properties with amazing potential. Sure, the launch games were either a re-hash of an existing product or a poorly executed, but we’re used to that. Developers needed time to get their act together, to implement the control scheme into the gameplay.

This never happened.

This isn’t a hippy-cosmic “material possessions don’t make you truly happy” kind of statement. I literally mean you don’t need a 3DS; plus, I’m happy to tell you exactly why."

Originally, the article was going to end with, "but you do need an NGP."

I don't evaluate systems when I want a new gaming system, I evaluate games. In that sense, he's right. I don't need any of the 3DS games that are out.

Maybe in a year or so, I will want some of them. But not now.

I just picked up a DS yesterday lol. Im years late but I am having great fun with all the games out for it. Plus it was about 5 times cheaper than the 3DS

I bought a 3DS because i've never owned a DS. I don't have any interest in the launch games but there are alot of great looking games coming out this year. Right now im catching up on DS games and having a great time doing so.

I'll be the judge on what I need.

2 out of 5 people think you don't have a choice in what you need.

I guess they're the judges on what I need.

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.

MeteorPanda3157d ago

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

Antnee5343157d ago

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

MeteorPanda3157d ago

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

Antnee5343156d 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.

Every time I see 'released on Steam' my heart sinks. Why don't these guys release on GOG instead?
