Maybe not at first day but I'll not wait long, suprisingly the Zelda remake interest me the most atm

" In an era where cell phones don't even last a full day without charging, the battery life on a game system isn't a big deal to me. But I'm really having my doubts that all of those games will make it out by June. Really Nintendo? I've been burnt by your "launch line up" before.  "

After reading the launch line up I was all set to go pick up DOA and Street fighter 4 3D along with the 3DS. But after seeing what will be coming out soon after I think I'll skip DOA for now.

Pre-ordered mine today, doesn't take a lot to convince me it will be worth the purchase in the long run, hell I'm trilled with my DSi XL (though I skipped the DSi). Crush 3D is a nice surprise announcement, loved that game on PSP.

I will skip this , I rather save that cash for something better ,  the games lineup seems lackluster and a bunch of rehash titles  , not worthy  it IMO , but props to the people who will buy it just tell us if it was worthy

" so kid Icarus == space harrier   "

I was just waiting to see how the price would be at launch. Since it's $249 and not $300, I'm definitely going for it =) 
 
Can't wait to try out the new Kid Icarus, Resident Evil, Pilotwings, Paper Mario... That list could go on forever =) Looks like a great lineup either way <3

I just pre-ordered mine from Amazon.

$250 
 
 
i'll pass

That's what I got out of that trailer too... "

Videogame gods be praised. Price is irrelevant for this amazing machine!

No Layton VS Wright in the UK means I might wait for the 3DS lite. Screw the possible 3DSi the DSi sucked anyway.

Mmmm, maybe I'll wait for the next version.... Not that I have $250+ right now, this year is going to be too loaded with great games to drop that much on hardware.

No mention of MGS3DS though? So sad...

That line-up is beyond delicious. 
 
Nintendo is fucking back.

And no Resident Evil: Revelations?! 
 
It blows!

Jeff called it 250$ he can see in the future. I still want to see what that kid icarus game is like.

" I just pre-ordered mine from Amazon. "

Meh I'm gonna buy a DSi instead. That battery is too much hassle and I'll only be playing a DS on the bus/train/plane where I doubt I can keep it steady enough for the 3D effect to work well...

Paper Mario and Pit are the two titles which interest me for the system, though if they put out a Donkey Kong Land Returns I would have to get one solely for that.

Waiting for more info on Mario Kart before buying one.

It's about $50 too much for my personal tastes.  I want one, and I'll get one but not until there is a price reduction.  I don't need one immediately anyway since I play primarily JRPGs on my current DS and my past GBA.  I'll wait a year or two and by then it will be better priced and will have a good selection of RPGs to choose from.

They're going to need to massively reduce production costs... $250 is way too much... If they're choosing to run it that high while still making a profit on the console, then Nintendo is run by mean, mean people.

" And no Resident Evil: Revelations?!  It blows! "

Looks good but I just don't have the money right now.

I'm was thinking the same thing.  Oh well.  It takes time to make a good game. "

The Mercenaries will be making the launch window, if that helps. "

A lot of those "launch widow" games are going to be pushed back. There's no way Nintendo is dumb enough to release 7-ish first part games within the first few months.

I always think about how wise I looked when I took the "wait and see" approach with the DS Phat.
 
I'm getting those same kind of vibes with this one too. Battery life alone has me thinking I'd be better off waiting on a hardware iteration. Let the soccer moms pay for Nintendo's production cost.

I'll probably wait a bit, either for some interesting bundle or for another model. I already got stuck with my DS tank since the beginning... Way too much expensive to upgrade machines :p

i will most likely buy it on released, it ocrina of time is a release title
 
im waiting for more information on the psp2 though

I don't even use my NDS or PSP anymore because of iPod Touch and my netbook. Doubt I'll buy this. A stand alone portable console just doesn't cut it in the world of portable all-in-one solutions like the iPhone.

I wanna see what the PSP deuce has in store.

" its amazing how they just keep finding new ways to shaft their customers and charge them for the same shit they already have... re-releasing tons of old games that have been on other systems is basically all theyre doing here. they can get away with it and they know they can.. if they can get away with the wii they can get away with anything.. "

Just seen there was Rayman 3D on that list.  Any word on what that game is?  I don't see it in the Giant Bomb database.

Man, all the good ones aren't out at launch! I guess that's a good reason to not buy one straight at launch though. 

So it costs more than a home console? 
No thanks.

That is a lot of money. Although it does look nice. Will certainly consider it.

I've already pre-ordered it from amazon. I want the remake of Zelda so bad I want to make sure I have that in my hands when it comes out.
Yes I'm a part of the problem.

When it gets a longer battery life and the price drop about $80, then I'll get one. It also doesn't influence my decision any more favourably by not putting out any original games at launch.

I like how everyone's screaming that $249 is a lot of money for a handheld when in Australia it's pretty cheap. Seriously guys, over here this thing's going to be priced at $350 or more!

As always, here's a bunch of people going "I WON'T BUY IT" who then get the slightest wiff of a good game or something neat about the system and run out of their house to buy one.
