Fuck yes, I'd buy it.

>don't want to play another Icarus

Are you fucking kidding me? There have been two Kid Icarus games. Twenty years ago. This is nothing like those.

This is their new IP.


Still don't want to play it. I want RPG's. A deep and immersive story with characterization for all the main players. So far there has been a serious dearth of those in Nintendo's lineup.

So, the games available on the 3DS and lined up for release within the next year don't interest you?

You could have just said that, instead of spouting "3DS HAS NOGAEMS LOL." Also, accusing Nintendo of propaganda is fucking ridiculous.

I'm probably going to get a 3DS now. I don't know if I'll have much time for gaming once school starts, but maybe I'll have more free time than the previous two years. If I were to get a 3DS, I would definitely buy one of those third-party battery packs so that I could play unplugged for more than 4 hours.

Lined up for next year. Yeah, that's the key word. The 3DS has next to nothing right NOW. That's the key to when I purchase a system after I got burned with the Wii. And I was trying to say the term "rabid fanboy" without actually saying it. Propaganda doesn't work though so eh fuck it, rabid fanboyism.

I am actually interested in some of the upcoming games, but they're a long ways to go. When they come out I will reconsider at that time whether a 3DS is worth it.

Why would you be interested in them when they're clearly all rehashes

I only bought a 3DS for the improved router compatibility - I don't have any 3DS games, because there currently aren't any that interest me.

I did think about getting SFIV but I haven't really been into fighting games for a while.

In the US and every other country, they're making a profit.

And if I understood a thing about world currency

I would assume that they're still making a profit, just less of one in Japan.

Because they're not? Some are existing IP's, but their stories, settings, and characters are vastly different in each one as is the gameplay, like Digital Devil Saga and Persona 3. Etrian Odyssey (Can you tell I like Atlus?) is brand new, as is Fantasy Life (Done by Level-5).

Digital Devil Saga? Isn't that like Shin Megami Tensai or Persona? Slap more games like that on the 3DS and I might buy it.
Also advertisement for it sucks butthole, game wise at least.

Made by the same company yeah. Full name is Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga. Different premise though. I haven't played it, but I've seen videos and gazed longingly at the case when I had no cheddar. And now that I have some I can't find it or Devil Survivor.

Why not buy it off the internet?
Pre-paid visa cards work.

That's generally my last resort in a hunt. I'm not actively looking for them right now with six Fall classes coming up, but they're on my radar.

This biggest think for me is the better Wi-Fi compatibility.

I might get OoT just for the Master Quest. But I'm still mad at Nintendo for making me buy that game again. T_T

Also, I might Street Fighter...

You know, they're porting/remaking Devil Survivor for the 3DS, so don't worry about not finding it.

If you seriously have to ask why it's an argument then you're too indoctrinated in Nintendo's propaganda.

And yes I'm serious. So far all I've seen are rehashes and existing IP's I care nothing about. I don't want to play another Mario/Star Fox/Icarus/etc game to the tune of $170 + however much the game is.

I think they're talking about the stupid backlash that's occurred because of this announcement... that a dramatic price drop and rewards for early adopters isn't good or at the very least neutral news (If a person doesn't care about the 3DS, this really isn't going to affect them). I'm kinda mindfucked by the fact that even with this, people are crying foul at Nintendo about how "the past 4 months have just been pure milking", that "this is just a new scheme to get people to buy and then drop game support", and whatever other insane troll logic they can come up with.

And none of what I've seen has been early adopters upset at the offer or the game choice they're getting, which would reasonably be the only group that frankly could have a semi-credible argument about the detrimental effect of this announcement (and maybe the people who want the price cut and want the option to purchase the GBA games, but it's still an option open for Nintendo and they could potentially be convinced to release them if people display a desire to purchase them).

If the price cut or the ambassador program doesn't appeal enough to someone to convince them to buy a 3DS (currently, Vita doesn't appeal to me, doesn't mean it's a terrible console though) then that's their prerogative, and their entitled to it. However, I don't see how this news can be taken negatively by anyone except the early adopters, and even then, caveat emptor is always in effect.
