I'm still unsure if I want a 3DS, some great games on it, but at the same time I owned a DS lite and only bothered to buy 2 games for it: The World Ends With You, which is admittedly a fantastic game, and Kirby Super Star Ultra.
I probably won't buy Vita until after a Monster Hunter game comes out on it. Though a Ratchet & Clank always helps with that to (and since both are so likely as to be affirmative, I suppose it's just a matter of time.) Using the touch panel for attacks in monster hunter would be nice. Swipe to left or right to swing a sword either way, up and down for different special moves probably. Aiming a bow or gun should become easy if we can quickly move through a cross-haired mode and normal camera view. Could get more complex to, like moving a finger in a circle motion to launch the spinning hammer attack when charged. Putting the touch panel in the back just sounds smart to me in so many ways.

Beating the extra content story after the main one is such a punch in the face. The final boss, ouph. Then again, just about every boss in that game felt like a sucker punch to the face in difficulty when I fought them for the first time. The main difference that set it apart from other RPGs is that I actually liked the gameplay enough that I didn't mind the grinding.
Oh man, if they released a second TWEWY for 3DS, that would drastically raise the priority of getting that system for me. Though I honestly would hope for more of a spiritual successor than a straight sequel. The characters and story were good, but I would just rather it be left concluded and a whole entirely new story and world written with similar game mechanics.
From this Sankei article, it sounds like the price drop is to try to pull Nintendo out of the 37,700,000,000 yen red stain the 3DS left on the company's books. I think that's about 377 million dollars, probably more, with the exchange rate.
At this point if you buy a DS just grab a good flash kart...
Theres a lot of shovelware on that thing, but a LOT of good games.
Flashcarts save you from having to gamble. 8D
Everythings 3DS now anyway.
AYY. All you nillas days is numbered.
I've considered getting one on several occasions, but always decided against it, because, well, there aren't a whole lot of games I even want to try on the DS to begin with. Mine has a tiny library because I just didn't care for its games, not because of money or anything. If I did get a cart, I'd probably use it more for playing games I would have to otherwise import.
Great.. I had finally convinced myself I didn't need any more handhelds and could live without the 3DS. Then this happens.
Well, good on Nintendo for doing what they needed to do to stay competitive with this thing.
