Cant wait to buy this system for 300 bucks. You get what you pay for...3D technology costs money, the cheapos need not reply to this thread.

Live IS better than PSN...but it doesnt mean I will pay for Live. I own a PS3 btw. PSN is good for free...

It looks like an anime show... Not a game. Basically a anime show turned into a game. Me dont get, I guess the culture of nintendo people is vastly different.

For those complaining about the price, it's gonna be 200-250 elsewhere. And even if it did hit 300, you guys have SOMETHING to trade in to knock it down or so. I mean for me the DSi XL will knock it down greatly to 150 or so. And you know how famous Gamestop and EB Games are with their boost up trade ins.

To me I was already wanting the 3DS. Then this game and Megaman Legends 3 made it a NEED.

1. $250 is as high as it will cost in the states. Period.

2. People said the DS would flop because of its price (that it wasn't that much cheaper than the PSP).

DS launched @ $150 and PSP launched @ $180....;) $30 is a significant amount

Maybe in the current economy. But I don't think people would have thought much of it half a decade ago.

Besides, look at the whole issue with the PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube. The Gamecube was consistantly the cheapest, and yet it ended in third. Cost is a factor, but it's hardly the sole one for consumers.

The Wii is the cheapest this gen, and its in first place...also i said significant amount, that doesnt mean its a lot

Well yeah... $250 vs the $500-600 that the PS3 launched at.

PS3 and Xbox both launched at $300. Gamecube launched at $200. $100 > $30.

Still doesnt change the fact that cheapest consoles have high chances of selling the most

i'm getting it. it's better than wii already

that's my reaction to your post.

professor layton is heavy on cutscenes, and phoenix wright simply isn't because the GBA would never handle them properly.

both games still offer a huge amount of story-heavy gameplay. this is the announcement trailer, they don't want to spoil the surprise of "how the hell will this work".

nintendo really should make the system as cheap as possible (I know, easy for us to say). Most people only buy one system and stick with it, so they definitely want to push out the psp2, whatever it will be. If sony releases a more powerful system for the same money then the 3DS might be in trouble. The 3D gimmick is a powerful one but nintendo might not want to put too much faith in it. GunSmith1_basic

Why must everything new be called "gimmick"

If you happen to have a Wii though, the cheapest way to play the original PW trilogy is via Wiiware (the first game is also on iPhone).

I actually didn't expect SW to be hyping this up much -- none of the 5 Ace Attorney games have made AAA, and only 1 of the 3 Layton games did. I guess in this case, fan excitement trumps scores.

The Ace Attorney games are quite popular and for good reason.

Phoenix Wright is everyone's favourite lawyer.

This game has sealed the contract for me. Purchasing a 3DS for sure.

So while they're both story-heavy games, from what I gather (never played a Layton game before), Layton seems more about doing stuff. Solving lots of puzzles which aren't necessarily relevant to your character's situation and story.

Oh yeah it's worth it, at least when you buy the system your getting load's of 3DS content

unlike sony with there extremely poor attempt to push 3D on us, why aren't we playing all the new released game's in 3D is it so hard for the Dev's to do it.

Castlvania, Enslaved, Medal of Honor, Vanquish and Fallout NV should have 3D support

Layton and Ace Attorney series are THE reason I have my DS aside from Nintendo and other third parties. They define my handheld, and Ironically although I love and still own my PSP, it can't beat these two series following.

And to be honest I am not so inclined to buy PSP2. This game alone compels me not to and I am looking forward to Megaman Legends 3.

[QUOTE="slvrraven9"][QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"] They're story-driven adventure/puzzle games with great writing, at least in the first few games. The mechanics are simple, but the combination of the funny dialog and the feeling of being smart when you figure out how to prove something in court makes them really entertaining. crippled_ram

I'm not really interested in either, though I am considering picking up a Professor Layton title (probably won't). This game could be interesting.

That Prof Layton vs Phoenix Wright game looks so awesome. :)

[QUOTE="King_Dodongo"][QUOTE="crippled_ram"] Bu the 3DS IS backward compatible :|windsquid9000

I would. UMD format flopped badly that Sony scrapped it save for games. PSP2 might use flash media or another sony made format.

[QUOTE="SakusEnvoy"]

[QUOTE="slvrraven9"] hmm...that sounds interesting. i may actually have to try that out one day. its a shame the 3ds isnt backwards compaiable. i dont wanna miss out on current ds games but id hate to buy one now and another in a year or so...slvrraven9

Yes.

Of course it's worth it, but for many other reasons too ;)

Awesome, yet another great reason to get a 3DS. :3
