The no-3DS-zone.

Yeah, so it's a couple of days after 3DS launch here in Norway, I've put my hands on it a couple of times, and I'm thoroughly unimpressed. The 3d works, sure. The slide pad or whatever it's called is nice. The retractable stylus is functional. But it just looks like a disaster! Why are the screens not the same size? Why is the slide pad a listless grey color? Why does it look like a DS fat when it's closed? And why does the battery suck so bad, when an iPad holds its charge for fifteen goddamned hours on normal use? I think that more than anything I'm disappointed that the rest of the console doesn't match the 3d screen. If the updated version adresses these issues, I'll get on the hype train at the first station. Until then there's a buuuuuuunch of DS games I want to get to.

That thing does not look like a DS Phat when it is closed. I am still using a DS Phat. Unless Scandinavian DS Phats were different, you are mistaken on that part anyway.  
 
Also, this post seems Troll-ish.

The screens aren't the same size because now they are making more efficient use of the top panel. 
 
If the colour of the slide pad really annoys you that much then me typing in bold italic should really piss you off, because you really shouldn't give a shit. 
 
It doesn't look like a DS fat when folded up. 
 
The Battery sucks because there are essentially 3 screens, one at the bottom and one for both eyes.  
 
I think the more pressing issue is the fact there are no games anyone wants.

Did not mean to troll. Really didn't. And your other arguments are good, the point about the screens especially. Type in italic all you want, dude, that doesn't irk me in the least. I just wanted to convey my disappointment in the look of the thing, when the 3d screen is so clearly entirely magical. Have a nice day, sir.

Man, I'm screwing up here. Sorry, probably replied to you about some other dude, partly.
