It's good to know they're rewarding the real ballers of society. Glad I got mine day one.

Can't say I didn't expect it. Nintendo keeps launching the same DS with some gimmick for MORE money ...DS, DS lite, DSXL, 3DS, DS with cheese...O_o...and the suckers lick it up.

" Nintendo 3DS is getting a massive price cut "...

What this is telling the world is we understand our 3DS is a massive fail and PLEASE buy it. Usually, you would see this kind of price cut going into the holidays but things are so bad for the Japanese giant that it's not waiting. I expect another price drop before the holidays.

People are tired of Nintendo and there suspect advertising...they are finally catching on. The Wii was a great success but I fear they will never recover from their shortsightedness. The Wii-U is basically starting from zero while 360 and PS3 take over their demographic.
The biggest losers in all this are the guys that bought it day one, tho Niny is trying to stop any revolt by giving them 20 old games nobody wants...0_o...Even Ubisoft has cancelled their game...sad really.

I have high hopes for Sony and it's REAL gaming handheld, PS Vita with glorious dual analogs.

PS Vita doesn't exactly have the best looking line-up of games, either. Hell, the only games (announced) for it that I'd be at all interested in playing... I already can on my PS3.

U.S. patent examiner rejects Nintendo’s summoning characters patent as obvious: non-final ruling

The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).

Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.

PRIMORDUS52d ago (Edited 52d ago )

Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.

Well dayum lol. Old agent orange pissing off every industry and nation.

0hMyGandhi77d ago

The fact that you have ANY disagrees will forever baffle me. And to the (apparent) MAGA contingent that exists on this website, enjoy your 8-9 dollar gas.

AuraAbjure77d ago (Edited 77d ago )

Yes, they had better be pissed after Trump told them the way they rip off the USA is over.

EveryPlatformGamer78d ago

LOL I read this on gaff, will they refund the money back to the gamers? highly unlikely. Didn't they just raise prices and pass it onto the gamers? Only Nintendo would send out the Ninjas to the US government.

-Foxtrot78d ago

That’s what I was thinking, imagine them winning hypothetically, getting a s**t load of money back which they would have lost if they hadn’t raised their prices and it’s business as normal.

It would just mean people paid more for no reason since they got the money back anyway.

Outside_ofthe_Box77d ago (Edited 77d ago )

A lot of companies partially passed the cost to consumers instead of all of it. They would still have to at least pay that back to gamers, but we know that won't happen. What's also sad is that prices won't come back down after the initial hike caused by tariffs.

People didn't understand the full repercussions of tariffs. That alone should have cost him the presidency if people knew it was a permanent price hike for consumers

Inverno78d ago

The people should sue these companies for having to over pay cause of these tariffs.

Eonjay78d ago

Naw they should sue the government for forcing the tax to begin with. No one reasonably expects these companies to absorb the taxes. Many smaller companies tried and were shut down or faced to increase prices to try to maintain their business. The tariffs effect everyone.

Inverno76d ago

I meant it mostly as a joke cause we all know the costs of these tariffs were passed onto the consumer. But it's seems no matter how vocal we are here in the states our "representatives" don't seem to care enough to represent us. And things are about to get worse.

Killer2020UK77d ago

The companies were doing what the law required then to do, the tariffs however were illegally implemented. Usually it's criminals we punish, you seem to have different ideas 🤷‍♂️
