    Why not?  The system appears to surpass the PSP graphically, and the new analogue slider should make controlling it far easier.

    No one knows what it looks like on hte 3DS and Chinatown of GTA was actually really great. So I'd reserve judgment until later if I were you.

    Lol. Yeah, why would you want to play it on the more powerful system with better inputs in 3D?

     I don't see how you can say that the game will be bad now, all we've seen is a logo.
    Atleast it was pretty funny when people laughed when they showed the Saints Row logo.

    Pfft, the first half way boring, Crazy Reggie Rapist face when he went to touch the 3Ds was amazing. I wish I could get a screen shot of that, I laughed hysterically. But, Kid Icarus is back, who coulda guessed? No one.

    As someone who hasn't bought anything Nintendo since the Gamecube, I can safely say that I'm still not going to become a Nintendo customer anytime soon. Nothing shown interested me, I'm obviously not the target audience. I have no interest in played games on the wii and the 3DS is just, meh. I want to hear people's opinions before passing judgement. 
     
    I'd be much more interested in a PSP 2 or whatever, but I don't think that we will see that this year.

    I've been very critical of the PSP over the years, and still think it's an absolute failure of a portable gaming device that did nothing to capitalize on the idea of mobility whatsoever. However, that Kid Icarus gameplay footage only looked marginally better than the current DS unless I was not perceiving it as you were.

    Nope I agree with you, I looked at that, initially I thought it was a Wii game ( I was playing a game whilst watching) my initial comment to myself was "That looks horrible".
    Then I realised and as a 3DS game I'll give it some slack, but really, that never looked that good.

    Nope, Kid Icarus is on the 3DS. Reggie explicitly said that you can't get a true feel for the Kid Icarus graphics on stage because it's they can't show it in 3D on stage. And every major news site is reporting it as a 3DS game.
     
    As for how good the graphics looked, compared to the PSP, I'd have to look at it in more detail to judge properly. It's clearly a big step up from the original DS, and is probably somewhere around the quality of the PSP.

    I've never liked Saint's Row, so I guess I won't like it for the 3DS either. Also, it was the only game (logo, I might add) that had the audience laughing instead of clapping.

    It's not a Wii game, plus people have been begging Nintendo for a sequel(Not me as I've never played the original) I would say beyond a decade. Them and the Mother 3 crowd are the most ignored game fanboys I've heard about.

    Considering the 3DS has better hardware than the PSP (barring any PSP 2 announcement upcoming), I'd say fuck yes. Not enough crazy M-rated games for Nintendo's consoles. People take Nintendo Handhelds seriously.

    I agree. For me it's been Nintendo, EA, Ubisoft and Microsoft in descending order. Ubisoft win out over Microsoft purely because of their insane host.

    This.  That analog slider can't be worse than the PSP's nub and the system is clearly more powerful.  Hell, between the apparent graphical horsepower of the 3DS and the small screens to make everything look sharp it's very likely that Saints Row on 3DS will look better than Saints Row 2 did on 360 or PS3.

    If you saw the little gameplay/demo of  Snake eater it looks fucking great graphically and you listened to the recent bombcast brad was saying how it surpassed the PSP.

    The fact that it's on the 3DS isn't the part that concerns me, that would be the fact that the subtitle is "Drive-By", which suggests to me that the game may be a rail shooter, and thus a gigantic waste of time.
