[QUOTE="gomakyle25"]

Just thought I would post this seeing what people would do when they first get it. Depending if I get a game or not, I will probably just fiddle around with the camera and other stuff and wait for the first firmware update in May. I will also have Pokemon Black to play.

But what will you guys be doing first?

The first thing to do is download the Spider Man trilogy & watch spidey in 3D!

Uh... gl with that...

I can't tell if you're trolling, but on the chance that you're not, you should know that it hasn't been announced that you will be able to download movies to the 3DS.

You may as well preorder a 3DS now instead of waiting because if Japan is any indication and looking at the Wii life cycle, it's going to be damn hard to find for the first year.

That's why I ordered mine from PlayAsia.com:

http://www.play-asia.com/Protection_Filter_for_3DS/paOS-13-71-18w-49-en-70-434h.html

I should have it long before the 3DS is released here in the US.

Pretty much what I'm going to do. :P You ordered the 3ds+screen from amazon? Theres an option to group your items, if you picked that option then you should be getting both items in on package. Unfortunately I pre-ordered mine at GS(3DS) and Amazon(screen protectors) hopefully it doesn't take too long to arrive.

Does it matter? The Spiderman trilogy is not in 3D... so unless they're reshooting/re-editing the movie or something.... gl with that.

I want to order one from this site so I'll have it on launch day, but the site says "Preorder" still, and if you look at the release date it was yesterday. I'm guessing they just haven't updated it but I don't want to pay for them if they're not being shipped out yet. Dzimm, did you get any kind of shipping confirmation yet?

Well I pre-ordered my 3DS on January 19th(first day amazon took 3DS pre-orders) and pre-ordered the Hori screen protectors and hardcase a little less then a week ago. I don't want to screw around with my 3DS pre-order so I'm just hoping i get two packages on the same day(29th I think), what a glorious day that is going to be. I'm also kind of glad of the fact that the 3DS will release and I will get it a a few days later, that way I can check out reviews and such and maybe change the one 3DS game I'm getting.

Definitely, I am really looking forward to trying out the Graffiti AR game, looks pretty fun, and I also will be getting back to playing Pokemon Black, as that will be the only game I will have for the 3DS until OOT...

I'm pretty much in the same boat as for waiting untill OoT is released. Unless, you know, something like Star Fox comes along beforehand; I'd jump right on that.

Oh yeah, I would say after the first 2 months is when the really good long awaited games will come out. And then after that we will have more games like that as well, seeing how the graphics capabilities are so much better that the other DS'.

Yeah, I got an email today saying that the release date had been pushed back. We're still a month out from the NA launch, so I expect I'll receive them before then.

Carefully unpack it. Turn the shower on hot to make some steam, go in the bathroom with the 3ds and put a Hori screen protector (already ordered from play-asia) on it. The steam helps knock down airborne dust. I am scratch anal.

Well since their is settings you have to do when you start up the system I will probably be doing that, I will be opening at a friends house, so it will be set up, Mii, Augmented Reality, and then Face Raiders before I jump to either Pilotwings or Madden, Street Fighter IV 3D is coming the following Wednesday.

I just get a shipment notice today, so it should be here in a week or two, so happily, I'll have the screen protector already in hand when I pick up my 3DS on the 27th. :)

I'm only going to be getting it in April or May sadly... but once I do I'll strap some protective screens on it, start charging it, and check out Super Street Fighter IV. Can't wait to see what the 3D looks like. Might try taking a few 3D pics too.

I'm pretty sure that it is a smart idea, just to see how it plays out (based on the Japan launch though, its EPIC). You will probably have a 96-4% chance of regretting not getting it at launch man, I am sorry. :P

The only thing that makes me kind of okay with not getting it on launch is that there's no BIG titles I really want yet. Sure it'll be fun as hell to play SSFIV, and possibly Monkey Ball, but nothing I could see myself becoming addicted to... just yet haha. Mario Kart 3DS, Harvest Moon, or some big RPG type adventure game. Plus no one I know will have one, so I won't be jealous haha.

Samurai Warrior Chronicles is looking pretty epic, and from what I can gather, player choice actually matters, so it could have a good bit of replayability as well. I'm curious how the reviews are going to shake out because it's a very Japanese-centric title, but it's worth keeping an eye on.

[QUOTE="silver_kyle"]...some big RPG type adventure game.dzimm

Samurai Warrior Chronicles is looking pretty epic, and from what I can gather, player choice actually matters, so it could have a good bit of replayability as well. I'm curious how the reviews are going to shake out because it's a very Japanese-centric title, but it's worth keeping an eye on.

Heh I was actually thinking of maybe picking that up instead of Monkey Ball. I've played one of them on the ps2 at one point and really enjoyed the battles. I'll just wait for a few reviews and maybe some gameplay vids.

I may be getting a job soon, so I'm trying to figure out what launch game I'd get if I would get one. I'm thinking SSFIV3D.
