Aside from a 39.99 price tag this game was well worth it for me.
Classic pacman + 2 other remakes and the same goes for Galaga.
If you are not a fan of retro then I could see how you might not enjoy the nostalgia trip.
Looks great but 39.99 for the prettier version of a game I already own and love is a bit steep.
29.99 or less works better.
I agree with the article on just about every count. Games really need to NOT be shovelware especially this early in the lifecycle of the 3DS. Shinobi I could not agree more, looks like it belongs on a DS. If a game looks like it could run and look just as good on a DS then why would I buy it for the far superior 3DS?
Games I have
Rayman 3D, looks good but ther was beter and more coloful rayman titles that could have been ported.
Rabbids Travel in Time - ...
That is a huge sales leap and I am glad they realized the more appropriate price point. The sales leap could be more of just an temporary price jump due to the lower price, I hope not.
I have myself and 3 kids that play the 3ds. The kids love the 3d effect (yes they are older than 6). I can take only so much of the 3d, thats due to my eyes and not the system. It is neat to know that 3d option is there and I can use it as I wish. My hope is that they concentrate on new 3DS titles that really take advantage of the systems potential. I would also prefer to pay much less for the ancient GB titles on Eshop. They would get more of my money of they did.
if they re...
underwhelming but at least it is not another downloadable GB game.
They are trying to make up for a huge, HUG,E FREAKIN HUGE mistake of trying to sell this system for 250!
They are still not out of rough waters until they get there mascot Mario up and running.
169 is a great step in the right direction, now if they would stop trying to resell 20+ year old gameboy monochrome games and get more GBA/N64 downloable stuff and fresh new games to take advantage of the 3DS this is when they will be on the right track!
I am looking forward to this. Looks like and upgrade to an already excellent game.
I am enjoying
LEGO Star Wars Clone Wars
if you are into retro
Pacman & Galaga Dimensions (Galaga 3d rail shooter is aneat twiest.
I know it is ancient but Wing Commander III was pretty awesome at the time....
The System seller would be
Star Wars Rogue Leader!
Super Mario Sunshine would be fun as well
You make it sound like the games are really selling and that is just incorrect. The games are too expensive, even the old monochrome gameboy games are way overpriced. They should not be over a dollar for any of them and the gba titles maybe 2 or so. Nintendo better get with the program or the 3ds will be ultimately doomed!
Bring X-Wing and something like X-Wing Alliance back, heck even a updated rogue leader would be awesome!
I think you have the game you chose over the runners up IE
Gears of War III?? Much MUCH bigger than the game you listed...
WTF! Nintendo? You buy a 3ds to play monochrome games?
How about the real arcade version of pacman?
How about an Ultimate Pacman pack that includes every arcade version and sequel ever made for pacman? That hasn't been done, they have made pacman collections but even they was missing many great versions of the game!
I would only download this game if it was free and then I would most likely never play it.
Forget slpit screen, how about 2 hdmi so you can do local multiplayer on 2 seperate tvs
10 gigs at least of ram
CPU/GPU factor of 10x more powerful
500 gig minimum hdd
make it quiet
make it economical
Lame speculation.... of course it is due to the impending price drop. To theorize or speculate anything else is just plain silly.
Tell me why would the sales stay anywhere near the same or increase when everybody knows the huge price drop is just around the corner.
This article is useless until after that time.
Even as far back as ET for the Atari 2600. The game looked good for 2600 standards but had incredibly horrid gameplay for the most part. If the game is not fun you won't play it just for the eye candy effect.
I know it was a gamecube game but Rogue Leader in 3DS would sell some systems, I would buy it day one!
Rogue Leader for the 3ds
