Poll Big 3DS Day: What all did you pick up today? (102 votes)

NEW Nintendo 3DS/NEW Nintendo 3DS XL 24%
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D 35%
Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate 22%
Nothing 48%

Today's a big day for 3DS owners and fans, as a whole lot of goodies- long anticipated games, new models, themes, and more- finally go on sale. With two big AAA games launching for the system on the same day, alongside an all new mid cycle hardware refresh line, there's a lot to pick up.

But what all did you end up getting?

Personally, me, I got The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. Originally had the New 3DS XL on reserve, but canceled that last week and diverted the money into finally buying some PS4 games instead. Hopefully I get around to getting the New XL in April or so, when Xenoblade launches.

Bonus: I also got some of the toughest superglue on the market to fix my busted analog stick on my launch day original 3DS model because **** you Nintendo, I am not going to stop using this unit until it is literally impossible to use, do you hear me?

I'm sure this topic has been beaten to death, but I'm still a bit torn on getting the New 3DS XL. I own the original 3DS and got it in May 2011 so I've had it for awhile and it would be a "huge" upgrade in power and just about everything, but I'm afraid that before you know it, the next successor for the 3DS might pop up two or three years down the line. Probably not, but who knows. Would you guys still recommend getting it? Tried it out in GameStop yesterday, was cool, thought the C-stick would move around though instead of being locked into place though lol.

I got a red N3dsxl and a copy of Majora's Mask 3D. Pretty satisfied with both. And Majora's Mask is still my all time favorite game.

Am I the only one who can't find a North American New 3DS XL anywhere? I go on Amazon and all they list is the super expensive MM version, the Japanese, and PAL version. It's sold out in stores near me too.

I didn't get anything. I'm not interested in the new 3DS and I don't like RPGs (especially Zelda and MH).

Just copped Majora mask today now too. Monster Hunter is sweet so far and I've never played Majora so that's cool Zelda is almost always a sure shot. That dam Majora Mask edition N3dsxl is so sick Nintengod delivers again!

From what I understand, the C stick is literally that, a stick, with no movement, and it just responds to pressure on its sides, right?

I managed to snag one from Walmart, but had to pay more for shipping to get it this Friday. Probably not the wisest idea, but went ahead and paid more anyways.

It works great for MH4. You won't be disappointed.

As for my haul.

@charizard1605: Majoras Mask, in my opinion, was the last really innovative Zelda game. It's so miserable and dark. But I find it stressful as **** and don't really like playing it! haha. I'm glad I was able to get the MM console. But Mohun 4 is pretty spot on. I think the reviewers calling it the most realized Mohun yet were absolutely correct.

Generally I agree with you, but yeah, MH4U ate up into all of my time for MM3D haha

@charizard1605: I really appreciate them turning it into a quest this time, not just "Here is a central hub with a quest board and you never leave this town"

Yep. Plus they made the action faster, and more immediately gratifying, which helped so much.
