personally i like the program cuz back when the GBA was popular, i missed out on like 75% of the games that came out; however i wish they had a few of the other games i don't have but wanna play; n if emulators weren't illegal, i'd just go that way
@PikadudeN64 Actually, emulators aren't illegal, as long as you own the games and system you're emulating. Besides that, the way I see it, GBA games aren't being sold anymore (and hence are making no money for Nintendo or the other developers), so i feel no shame downloading and playing them on my supercard dstwo. just my opinion.
You know what who gives a shit. If your not a ambassador and want to play GBA games then go to game stop. They still sell the original cartriges. Don't forget to buy a ds lite too.
@goombapuffstool88 probably no, nintendo said something about improve the nes titles on 3d and that they will be on eshop and free for ambassadors, but also said that they has no intention of release gba titles on eshop,,,still 3ds is doing pretty well now, so who knows
@brokenranger1 That sucks. I hope they release them. Is Nintendo going to make these ambassadors more special than everyone else? I'm guessing they think that we are not as loyal because we spent less. :(
@goombapuffstool88 i hope that ambassadors got more special, coz i win, but probably that will not happen, remember the ambassador program was a quick solution so we, who payed more dont get angry >.<, the loyalty to nintendo is rewarded by the clubnintendo with coins/stars (and now US players can trade coins for some few games download code)
HELP! hey all (; I bought a 3ds price before sinking. but when I go into the menu online at eShop, and so my downloads, I can not find the 10 gba games. is there anything I should do to be able to find them? Can anyone help me? if I do not answer must be happy to send an email! please help me (;
@lasse7900 did u go online B4 it dropped down? the program closed the day of the price drop i was lucky i got mine off ebay ($150) n i had no idea of the price drop OR the program
I have Mario Kart Super Circuit and it is still good but it dont have Ghost Data or Multiplayer D: But it dont really matter to me so im still happy :D
Okay I paid $250 for a system that is awesome... BUT HAS VERY FEW games that im intrested in at the moment, seeing as theres a price drop, and a shiny fancy new zelda themed one out now, I REALLY NEED THIS TO HAPPEN like tomarrow. I know I shouldve saved that money on a car, fking gamestop persuadors.
The GBA games not having save states/ restore points is no big deal since N64 and NeoGeo games lack this feature on the Wii's VC. however I hope it supports local multiplayer via Wi-Fi, 3DS Dowmload, or StreetPass and I would love to have the sleep mode feature intact as well.
Fun fact: the ambassador program is actually a well-intentioned test program to get Gameboy Advance and NES games on the 3DS Virtual Console. They're basically using you guys in a form of beta testing(a good thing).
1.- mario & luigi superstar saga 2.-fire emblem 3.-super mario bros 3 4.-kirby's amazing mirror 5.-yoshi's island 6.-mario vs donkey kong 7.-golden sun 8.-metroid fusion 9.-zelda minish cap 10.-mario kart super circuit that would be my list :( i really doubt it, but it would be awsome
@poppie714 Go to the eShop, then go to Setting, scroll down until you see the tab Your Downloads, click it then a list of previous download files should appear. Pretty much every past downloads you had should be here and if you're a 3DS Ambassador, GBA games like Minish Cap, F-Zero Max Velocity, MK Super Circuit, and Wario Land 4 should appear somewhere on the list, click the Re-download tab to download them for free. If you don't see any then you're not really an Ambassador are you?
How's throwing a fuckload of money down the hole for something you could've paid half-as-much for several months later after making your sorry-ass wallet starve to death, kid?
@TeamBelmont91 Asshat? Oh you want to make fun of my name now? Fucking pathetic little bitch. Enjoy your piece of shit 170$ 3ds. Come holiday season, Nintendo's giving me 10 free GBA games. Games that were worth 40$ each in the past. Thats 400$ if you don't know math.
Seems like you're getting mad over nothin' anyways, so you got trolled so EASILY as soon as your username was written in the PROPER way, which simply describes what you really are, you asshat.
@Analrapist883 "Asshat? Oh you want to make fun of my shitty name which can instantly spin me into a flurry or hilarious rage? I'm a fucking pathetic little queef. I enjoy burning money left right and center as if my mortgage was not paid off, which it isn't. Come holiday season, I'll be begging to have my whiny ass kicked for $40 a kick. That'll be another $400 not properly invested, since my credit rate is utter shit."
@TeamBelmont91 Insult? More like forgiving, the 3DS should be $170 to begin with. $250 is just too much and it's forgiving that Nintendo reward the early 3DS buyers for buying it at that cost. Besides Nintendo already mention about the Ambassador Program before the price dropped so why complain? It's not like Nintendo surprise us by saying yeah the 3DS price had dropped but we will only give the 20 free games to ppl who bought it at $250.
@blueswan1984 Well lah-dee-fuckin'-dah. It's still a slap to the face to the people who can ACTUALLY afford a 3DS that got left out in the dark, pal. The economy of today is of no exception, because for the working man like myself, we would have to pay BOTH arms and legs for a just-released 3DS in Q1 if we want all the new games and whatnot, which due to the fairly sparse library of games that one would truly WANT on the 3DS, aint nowhere as easy as one would hope. :/
@TeamBelmont91 I don't see that as a slap in the face though as the free games are to make up for the expensive launch. If you only bought the 3DS just to get the system then I don't see that as a complain. The 3DS should had launch with a reasonable price and besides all those 20 games that were given to the Ambassador are probably gonna be available sometime in the future anyways. It's not like Nintendo is saying if you want 20 free games buy the 3DS before the price dropped.
@TeamBelmont91 This is an argument???? It won't be available anytime soon doesn't mean it won't be available ever which is why I said in the future (oh I don't maybe next year, the year after that, when the PS7 came out, who knows), not in the present (like now) and I'm not your pal.
Well, looks like someone of a certain Ambassador status spends far, far too much time looking down on people with 3DS systems that EVERYONE WITH A DECENT PAYCHECK CAN FUCKIN' AFFORD, hm?
Hate to deflate your ego (Heh, yeah right.), kiddo, I'm not the only person whom has the same views on the whole Ambassador Snafu that Nintendo's caused accidentally, which Nintendo's somewhat making up for in the meanwhile, so tough shit, kid.
If you have a decent paycheck and you want to play GBA games then why not buy a DS lite instead? It could play GBA games, it could play DS games, it pay imports of both, and like 3DS now, it's freaking affordable. Makes for nice Christmas gift too. The Ambassador deal is just for ppl who bought the thing at launch so that the extra $80 they lay down on the thing is worth it. If you didn't lay down the extra $80, then why do you care if you got them games or not?
@blueswan1984 Oh, so you come off your white horse to come and tell someone whom you have NO clue about since you've never met them in real life what to do and what not to do, don'tcha, you pompous 1%-ing clod.
The DS/DS Lite/DSi didn't have Gameboy/GBC support, which is one of the main reasons why I waited for the 3DS to drop in price, but apparently that wasn't good enough for you to gloat about to other 3DS owners, isn't it?
@TeamBelmont91 Says the man-child riding around on his white horse, pumped up on his own sense of victimhood.
The ironic tears of an angry troll are always delicious.
Rage
Curse
Let the butthurt flow through you.
Wallow in your victimization by cursing Nintendo, curse them even though you would probably have pirated the games anyway if you really wanted to play them but couldn't afford them.
U Mad? Prove it emo fag. Respond, curse me and prove your worthlessness.
Seems like the only person getting more pissy than a schoolgirl with a blood-belching taint is you, kiddo. While I'm just laughing my ass off at how much money you could've saved for a device that I bet you've put off too many damn payments on your mortgage just to play a shitty port of Street Fighter IV, am I right, you fat-assed nig-nug?
Listen, how's about you be a good little fuckwit and go back to your half-assed burger flipping job you got to pay off your creditors, eh, nig?
@LethalDracO if they do it would be part of gameboy not advance ambassadors. if anything i think it would be epic if they get fr/lg or emerald and then maybe have some wireless functions
you know i thought yoshi was gonna suck but i love it now so smb2 being gone over yoshi isnt bad. BUT nes tourniment golf over smb3 a BAD mistake. LEGEND OF ZELDA 2????? WHY NINTENDO? I CAN BARELY BEAT THE FIRST ONE LET ALONE THE SECOND! i was expecting kirby
@EnzoKmL nah ill stick to my 3ds and play me some super mario 3d land, mario kart 3ds, paper mario, lugiis mansion and more... have fun playing your ds lol
So, there has been news that if you want your GBA ambassador games, you must be on club nintendo by OCTOBER 27TH.
I did a little reasearch, and on OCTOBER 27TH Is when there is 10 weeks left in the 2011 year! Get it? 10 weeks, 10 games. Hmm... Looks like Nintendo will release them weekly! If you do enough internet reasearch, you will see that my theory is correct.
hopefully there is pokemon emerald on this list or this will be a dissapointment. I mean emerald was like what number three on the top selling gba games in its lifespan. no wait. i know what people are gonna say it was beaten by ruby and s but its a better game and also it will give u s a preview of the hoenn remakes if they decide to make one. im sre this is possible since you know gamefreak only makes for nintendo i believe
My ideas for the GBA ones: Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga Donkey Kong Country Super Mario Advance 2: Super Mario World Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros 3 Can't think of anything else (If they'll do non-nintendo games:) Super Monkey Ball Jr. Sonic Battle That's it. :D
i want a larger bottom part. my pinky fingers cramp the fuck up from holding it up while playing. (i have my middle 3 fingers on the back of the system, with my pinkies on the bottom, near the headphone jack, giving stability.) after about 10 mins, my pinkies KILL. so, yeah, a more ergonomic design would be cool. anyone else get this problem?
also, on the zelda remakes, i think a Majora's Mask remake is in order. there were 2 n64 zeldas, yet ony 1 on 3ds? maybe i just like evenness and symmetry
I wish there was a Nintendo 3DS Lite, after all... Iwata did mention something about 3G... Amazon?... Whispernet?... Do you guys know anything that maybe you can't tell us? There are a few items that can be improved in the 3DS. For starters, the might include a SLOT-2 in the "3DS Lite". Amazon did free 3G with their Kindle so I'm sure they could do a trick where every game bought through 3G could be bought for like $2.00/£1.99. Cummon' Nintendo. Make US happy!
@MuzzaHukka I believe they are going to do something about the GBA games and making them compatible with the DS's wireless capability. Maybe even online play for some. Because alot of these games have multiplayer and even ghost data switching that was on the original GBA, street pass could even be used, but its still too soon to see. 3DS, It just wouldnt feel right knowing I cant use the multiplayer features on GBA games and having a hole under it, along with non GB friendly, while having eShop.
As a huge NES fan, the Ambassador list is a disappointment. Nintendo seemingly doesn't care enough to put in better games. Some of the included games are bad, have better alternatives or just aren't fun/accessible by today's standards. Better choices: Dr. Mario, Kid Icarus, Kirby's Adventure, R.C. Pro Am, Ice Hockey, Punch-Out. And where are SMB2/SMB3? Will probably show up on the Ambassador list of 10 GBA games, taking up valuable slots that could've gone to excellent original GBA titles.
@megalon84 Well, someone gives you a Skittle. Do you complain and rant about the Skittle not being your favorite color? No, you take the skittle, enjoy it, and be thankful that you got a skittle instead of nothing at all. Just saying.
Straw man argument. No one is getting free Skittles and complaining. 3DS owners spent $250+, the device dropped $80, the game library is still extremely lacking, and compensation is about $5 dollars' worth of old games, most of which are obsolete and boring for modern audiences. They should give away a big recent title for free or highly reduced, to show fans they care and to admit they messed up in a major way with the 3DS and want to make things right.
Nintendo is generous for giving a few dollars' worth of old games after a massive price dropped that screwed early buyers? If they gave nothing at all, they would've been labeled one of the year's worst companies in gaming. The Ambassador program exists because buyers feel disappointed and ripped off. Generous? Nintendo is just doing the bare minimum to avoid a PR nightmare. Average 3DS owner didn't spend $250 for free NES and GBA games. Only die-hard fans are happy about any of this.
That's a short side quest game. It doesn't make up for the poor 3DS library and the general widespread disappointment among buyers. Do any of you use Steam? Because that service constantly has free games, discounts, daily, mid-week, weekend deals, and special bundle offers that put Nintendo's terrible and meager appeasement offers to shame. And unlike Nintendo, Steam didn't do anything wrong in the first place.
@megalon84 Well Nintendo can't give you every game for free. some you have to buy like Mario Kart 7 and if you want disappointing go buy a PSP GO....!
Who said anything about giving away every game for free? I said Nintendo should offer a recent title for free or offer several impressive concessions to make up for the sudden huge price drop and ongoing lackluster library. Right now, the 3DS has failed in several ways and is almost as disappointing as PSP Go. If things don't improve drastically, the 3DS will likely fail altogether, especially with aggressive new competitors in the world of portable devices.
@megalon84 We also got excite bike and the Pokedex app for free and also in November there's going to be an update that lets us record video in 3D. which will make the 3DS the cheapest 3D video camcorder on the market...!
@megalon84 Do you understand that Nintendo is NOT, by any means at all, obligated to give early buyers of the 3DS, people who consciously and knowingly payed the full price, any sort of compensation? I agree that they certainly could have put in better games (GBA game lineup isn't even anywhere near bad, from what I've seen) in the program, but to get ANYTHING at all is already doing more than what Nintendo needs to do. Receiving such a gift as 20 free games is nothing to complain about.
I'm fully aware Nintendo isn't obligated to give away anything, that buyers are entitled to nothing. But that's not why I said they must give big incentives for people to stick around & you're wrong to say they're doing more than enough. Disappointment in the hardware, weak demand/sales, recent huge losses, powerful/wealthy juggernauts entering the casual market. Look at the big picture. It's about more than just a few NES games. Nintendo is failing at the worst time possible.
@megalon84 Certainly they are not doing enough to save their reputation with many of their customers, but I didn't say they were doing "more than enough" to do so; I was talking strictly about what they were required to do, i.e. nothing. Regardless, it's true that this sort of stunt doesn't provide incentive to stick around (after all, it's only available to early adopters), but I believe that they are relying on low prices and games FINALLY coming out for that.
Library is still very weak and prices aren't low at all. $170 single-purpose device and $35-40 games are no longer "low." A hardcore gamer may see handheld and mobile games as two very different beasts that aren't comparable, but the general population (in the millions) is voting that it is the same thing and overwhelmingly choosing the (often cheaper) smartphone and $2 games. People want to carry around one device that does everything well, which happens to not be the 3DS.
@megalon84 Either way, I was only addressing your point about the games, themselves. Besides that, I agree that Nintendo isn't doing much, but what exactly do you suggest they do?
3DS feels like a 2005 gadget. Handhelds are becoming obsolete/niche, like p/s cameras, e-readers and mp3 players. Nintendo needs to create the next great do-everything device a person wants to carry when going out. Pushy stores have made physical media overstay their welcome. No one wants to buy/carry discs game carts anymore. Go fully digital, multimedia and online in a big way, like Steam or iOS. iPad, Nook Color and Kindle Fire are great examples of what needs to be done.
@megalon84 I never liked the idea of fully digital. You can never really own what you pay for if there is no physical thing for it to be, if that sentence makes any sense. Also, I can't say that I see the potential in bigger and better games if Nintendo releases a non-game-dedicated device. Certainly there are good games on the App Store for the iPhone and iTouch (and whatever else there is), but I haven't heard of nor seen anything that can come across as anything more than arcade style games.
@megalon84 More on the physical copies topic: the fact that Nintendo basically has control over our 3DSs means that if they can even loosely justify shutting down my system (obviously they wouldn't without good reason, or else that would be HORRIBLE for their PR), I can no longer play games I downloaded onto it. Granted, I wouldn't be able to play my physical games, but that's more or less beside point. With game industry businesses looking for more and more control of the players, it's worrying
@megalon84 nintendo probably didnt want to give us kirby and kid icarus because theyre remaking those in 3d for eshop, kid icarus was only annoced in japan so far -_-
As a huge NES fan, the Ambassador list is a disappointment. Nintendo seemingly doesn't care enough to put in better games. Some of the included games are bad, have better alternatives or just aren't fun/accessible by today's standards. Better choices: Dr. Mario, Kid Icarus, Kirby's Adventure, R.C. Pro Am, Ice Hockey, Punch-Out. And where are SMB2/SMB3? Will probably show up on the Ambassador list of 10 GBA games, taking up valuable slots that could've gone to excellent original GBA titles.
If they're going to update the NES games with new features at a later date, I'm sure they'll do that for the GBA games, which could include suspended save states and multiplayer.
Personally, I hope they make the NES games 3D Classics at a later date.
@ACCFfriend You shouldn't have to buy a product with the understanding that extra peripherals(such as external batteries) will be needed. The device should be good as is, without any 3rd party anything. Nintendo screwed up, and that's that.
@RLbitClassica its not bad to me 3 hours takes a long time to pass after all I didnt have much trouble playing BIS and thats a rpg game I play games alot but who plays the 3ds 12 hours straight ? supposing the life was tht long
@sonicadx I never said it needed to be a full 12 hours(though that would be nice lol) but 3-5 hours is just too short for me. You see, i play a dsi xl and that thing will last me a day of heavy usage with some change left over, now THAT'S good battery life. But If your fine with the battery on the 3ds as it is already, more power to ya then.
Metal Gear Solid 3 was one of the games I was looking forward to getting on the 3DS but since I decided to give it a miss when I found out about the MGS HD collection for the PS3.
Bring out Megaman Battle Network 3 on the marketplace with an Online Netbattle mode and we'll talk.

@TeamBelmont91 Insult? More like forgiving, the 3DS should be $170 to begin with. $250 is just too much and it's forgiving that Nintendo reward the early 3DS buyers for buying it at that cost. Besides Nintendo already mention about the Ambassador Program before the price dropped so why complain? It's not like Nintendo surprise us by saying yeah the 3DS price had dropped but we will only give the 20 free games to ppl who bought it at $250.
blueswan1984 2 months ago
@blueswan1984 Well lah-dee-fuckin'-dah. It's still a slap to the face to the people who can ACTUALLY afford a 3DS that got left out in the dark, pal. The economy of today is of no exception, because for the working man like myself, we would have to pay BOTH arms and legs for a just-released 3DS in Q1 if we want all the new games and whatnot, which due to the fairly sparse library of games that one would truly WANT on the 3DS, aint nowhere as easy as one would hope. :/
TeamBelmont91 2 months ago
@TeamBelmont91 I don't see that as a slap in the face though as the free games are to make up for the expensive launch. If you only bought the 3DS just to get the system then I don't see that as a complain. The 3DS should had launch with a reasonable price and besides all those 20 games that were given to the Ambassador are probably gonna be available sometime in the future anyways. It's not like Nintendo is saying if you want 20 free games buy the 3DS before the price dropped.
blueswan1984 2 months ago
@blueswan1984 (Sees the Wikipedia page that clearly states that the 20 games won't be available to the general public any time soon.)
Oh, I'm sorry, did I blow a gaping hole through your arguement, pal?
TeamBelmont91 2 months ago
@TeamBelmont91 This is an argument???? It won't be available anytime soon doesn't mean it won't be available ever which is why I said in the future (oh I don't maybe next year, the year after that, when the PS7 came out, who knows), not in the present (like now) and I'm not your pal.

Hate to deflate your ego (Heh, yeah right.), kiddo, I'm not the only person whom has the same views on the whole Ambassador Snafu that Nintendo's caused accidentally, which Nintendo's somewhat making up for in the meanwhile, so tough shit, kid.
TeamBelmont91 2 months ago
If you have a decent paycheck and you want to play GBA games then why not buy a DS lite instead? It could play GBA games, it could play DS games, it pay imports of both, and like 3DS now, it's freaking affordable. Makes for nice Christmas gift too. The Ambassador deal is just for ppl who bought the thing at launch so that the extra $80 they lay down on the thing is worth it. If you didn't lay down the extra $80, then why do you care if you got them games or not?

@blueswan1984 Oh, so you come off your white horse to come and tell someone whom you have NO clue about since you've never met them in real life what to do and what not to do, don'tcha, you pompous 1%-ing clod.
The DS/DS Lite/DSi didn't have Gameboy/GBC support, which is one of the main reasons why I waited for the 3DS to drop in price, but apparently that wasn't good enough for you to gloat about to other 3DS owners, isn't it?
You make me sick, you insufferable egotist.

So, there has been news that if you want your GBA ambassador games, you must be on club nintendo by OCTOBER 27TH.
I did a little reasearch, and on OCTOBER 27TH Is when there is 10 weeks left in the 2011 year! Get it? 10 weeks, 10 games. Hmm... Looks like Nintendo will release them weekly! If you do enough internet reasearch, you will see that my theory is correct.

As a huge NES fan, the Ambassador list is a disappointment. Nintendo seemingly doesn't care enough to put in better games. Some of the included games are bad, have better alternatives or just aren't fun/accessible by today's standards. Better choices: Dr. Mario, Kid Icarus, Kirby's Adventure, R.C. Pro Am, Ice Hockey, Punch-Out. And where are SMB2/SMB3? Will probably show up on the Ambassador list of 10 GBA games, taking up valuable slots that could've gone to excellent original GBA titles.

METALMAN4Wii 4 months ago
@pntjr
Straw man argument. No one is getting free Skittles and complaining. 3DS owners spent $250+, the device dropped $80, the game library is still extremely lacking, and compensation is about $5 dollars' worth of old games, most of which are obsolete and boring for modern audiences. They should give away a big recent title for free or highly reduced, to show fans they care and to admit they messed up in a major way with the 3DS and want to make things right.
megalon84 4 months ago
@megalon84 But Nintendo could've gave us nothing at all. We're lucky Nintendo is very generous. Would you rather have 20 free games, or lose $80?
pntjr 4 months ago
@pntjr
Nintendo is generous for giving a few dollars' worth of old games after a massive price dropped that screwed early buyers? If they gave nothing at all, they would've been labeled one of the year's worst companies in gaming. The Ambassador program exists because buyers feel disappointed and ripped off. Generous? Nintendo is just doing the bare minimum to avoid a PR nightmare. Average 3DS owner didn't spend $250 for free NES and GBA games. Only die-hard fans are happy about any of this.

That's a short side quest game. It doesn't make up for the poor 3DS library and the general widespread disappointment among buyers. Do any of you use Steam? Because that service constantly has free games, discounts, daily, mid-week, weekend deals, and special bundle offers that put Nintendo's terrible and meager appeasement offers to shame. And unlike Nintendo, Steam didn't do anything wrong in the first place.

@METALMAN4Wii
Who said anything about giving away every game for free? I said Nintendo should offer a recent title for free or offer several impressive concessions to make up for the sudden huge price drop and ongoing lackluster library. Right now, the 3DS has failed in several ways and is almost as disappointing as PSP Go. If things don't improve drastically, the 3DS will likely fail altogether, especially with aggressive new competitors in the world of portable devices.

@megalon84 Do you understand that Nintendo is NOT, by any means at all, obligated to give early buyers of the 3DS, people who consciously and knowingly payed the full price, any sort of compensation? I agree that they certainly could have put in better games (GBA game lineup isn't even anywhere near bad, from what I've seen) in the program, but to get ANYTHING at all is already doing more than what Nintendo needs to do. Receiving such a gift as 20 free games is nothing to complain about.
TehMountainMan 4 months ago
@TehMountainMan
I'm fully aware Nintendo isn't obligated to give away anything, that buyers are entitled to nothing. But that's not why I said they must give big incentives for people to stick around & you're wrong to say they're doing more than enough. Disappointment in the hardware, weak demand/sales, recent huge losses, powerful/wealthy juggernauts entering the casual market. Look at the big picture. It's about more than just a few NES games. Nintendo is failing at the worst time possible.
megalon84 4 months ago
@megalon84 Certainly they are not doing enough to save their reputation with many of their customers, but I didn't say they were doing "more than enough" to do so; I was talking strictly about what they were required to do, i.e. nothing. Regardless, it's true that this sort of stunt doesn't provide incentive to stick around (after all, it's only available to early adopters), but I believe that they are relying on low prices and games FINALLY coming out for that.
TehMountainMan 4 months ago
@TehMountainMan
Library is still very weak and prices aren't low at all. $170 single-purpose device and $35-40 games are no longer "low." A hardcore gamer may see handheld and mobile games as two very different beasts that aren't comparable, but the general population (in the millions) is voting that it is the same thing and overwhelmingly choosing the (often cheaper) smartphone and $2 games. People want to carry around one device that does everything well, which happens to not be the 3DS.
megalon84 3 months ago
@megalon84 Either way, I was only addressing your point about the games, themselves. Besides that, I agree that Nintendo isn't doing much, but what exactly do you suggest they do?
TehMountainMan 4 months ago
@TehMountainMan
3DS feels like a 2005 gadget. Handhelds are becoming obsolete/niche, like p/s cameras, e-readers and mp3 players. Nintendo needs to create the next great do-everything device a person wants to carry when going out. Pushy stores have made physical media overstay their welcome. No one wants to buy/carry discs game carts anymore. Go fully digital, multimedia and online in a big way, like Steam or iOS. iPad, Nook Color and Kindle Fire are great examples of what needs to be done.
megalon84 3 months ago
@megalon84 I never liked the idea of fully digital. You can never really own what you pay for if there is no physical thing for it to be, if that sentence makes any sense. Also, I can't say that I see the potential in bigger and better games if Nintendo releases a non-game-dedicated device. Certainly there are good games on the App Store for the iPhone and iTouch (and whatever else there is), but I haven't heard of nor seen anything that can come across as anything more than arcade style games.
TehMountainMan 3 months ago
@megalon84 More on the physical copies topic: the fact that Nintendo basically has control over our 3DSs means that if they can even loosely justify shutting down my system (obviously they wouldn't without good reason, or else that would be HORRIBLE for their PR), I can no longer play games I downloaded onto it. Granted, I wouldn't be able to play my physical games, but that's more or less beside point. With game industry businesses looking for more and more control of the players, it's worrying
