Live blog: Nintendo 3DS New York event- Destructoid

Go there, go now.

30 games set to launch between March and by E3 in June alone O.o

Friend codes are no longer software dependant, one code that's universal. In other words, Nintendo got with the times in Friend codes.

Launching at $249.99 (called it) on March 27th in the US.

heh......I will believe it when I see it ;p

I want Nintendo to get their online right with the 3DS, but I am not keeping my hopes up.

Well, this is all coming from Reggie, so I don't think you need much more confirmation than that.

The friend codes can be shared wirelessly if the friend is local. Most game will have options for friending people within them as well. There will also still be the manual input method for people you don't meet locally or in-game.

And you can check to see if you're friends are online and what they're playing. Happy now, kids? Now people can call you and pester you to play something else.

Sadly, it doesn't seem the Nintendo E-Store will be hosting GBA titles at launch, though Game Boy and Game Boy Color games will be available.

Here's the launch titles:

* Pilotwings Resort
* Nintendogs + Cats
* Steeldiver
* Dead or Alive
* Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 3D
* Madden NFL
* Super Street Fighter IV 3D
* Asphalt 3D
* Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs 3D
* Ridge Racer 3D
* Resident Evil: The Mercenaries
* LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars

Think I'll go for SSFVI3D, Pilotwings Resort and maybe DoA (for the lulz of 3D jiggle).

Also TGM, if you could, merge this with the other 3DS thread, it was silly of my to me to make this separate.

* Resident Evil: The Mercenaries

Well there's at least 1 game I'm interested in. Still going to wait for a price drop though.

Maybe when MML3 comes out I'll grab it idk. Kinda need a job first >_<

Re: 3DS NY live event blog - gogogo

I'm pretty sure the GB GBC stuff will be Nintendo and dominant third party kinda stuff. GBA might be a bit more tricky for now since there's been so many company mergers and shifts since the GBA and there were soooo many games for that. Even more so for the Game Boy/Color

Re: 3DS NY live event blog - gogogo

What's funny is, the thing I'm looking forward to the most is Nintendo's Game Boy backcatalog. There are quite a few games for that system that I never got to try back in the day.

Also, only one friend code per system = WIN.

Re: 3DS NY live event blog - gogogo

OK, I know I was half joking about getting DoA Dimensions elsewhere, but this was cute

Ryu falls to Kasumi, Ridley approves! Fatality!

And then Samus shows up.

I may have to check it out now.

Re: 3DS NY live event blog - gogogo

wait..... what did I just watch?, and is it fake or do I need to throw a "WTF" out there?

[Omgwtfbbqkitten]

Re: 3DS NY live event blog - gogogo

Why do you question everything as fake or "I'll believe it when I see it" today?

This is a fighting level for DoA Dimensions. Team Ninja did help make Metroid Other M, so it would kinda make sense for them to have access to some Other M assets to build a level out of and Nintendo stuck Ridley and Samus in the game since DoA:D is an exclusive.

And keeping with DoA games the level is being destroyed by Ridley as they fight.

ITs not strange to have guest characters in fighters these days. Hell, it was Nintendo and Namco that started that stuff with Soulcalibur 2 and Link, now Kratos has been in that series and will be in Mortal Kombat as well.[COLOR="Silver"]

Re: 3DS NY live event blog - gogogo

Region locked. <_<

Although I may get a DS lite for Kanji sono mama and and some other games people have recomended me, plus its cheap now.







Good bye 3DS, can't say I'm sad I didn't meet you.

Wait, the DSi XL is not region locked for DS games right? I could get that one instead since it's bigger. But it depends on pricing since I'm really not willing to spend much on it.

One of the DOAs also features a female Spartan from Halo.

Actually, its been confirmed that certain games are region locked while others aren't. Games that are deeply internet-enabled may not be region locked as that would interfere with the concept of playing globally with others.

So region locking is a developer choice this time out, software can be region-locked but the hardware doesn't appear to be. I wait to see the lists of which are and aren't post launch.

Though really, it might just help to drop the JP fetish you have. You strike me as the creepy guy that stalks asian girls in the manga section of Borders. Meanwhile the geeks in the graphic novel section shake their heads at you in disgust

Wait, the DSi XL is not region locked for DS games right? I could get that one instead since it's bigger. But it depends on pricing since I'm really not willing to spend much on it.

Both DSi and DSi XL are region-locked, DS Lites are not.

One of the DOAs also features a female Spartan from Halo.

So I heard. Probably one of the two that died in Halo Legends, right?

Re: 3DS NY live event blog - gogogo

So DSi wont play DS games from other regions even if the games are supposedly region free? Bleh.

So (a very cheap) DS lite it is.

Unless by some miracle most Japanese 3DS games aren't region locked if it's optional and doesn't region lock DS games which are supposed to be region free.



PS > It would be much easier for me to get rid of my NA fetish.

Not to mention stalking US girls can't be fun.

well when I first watched the video it looked spliced to me, but after watching it a second time, I know it's not, and thats pretty cool, might get this version of DOA.
