How?

Graphically speaking 3ds is closer to psp than psvita yet they're the same price. 3ds should be at the most $200 but even that's pushing it.

Bought one at launch. Dead or Alive, BlazBlue, Rayman, Pilotwings, Ghost Recon, and Ridge Racer have kept me happy thus far. Also like the free games Nintendo has given me (Excitebike 3D, FaceRaiders, AR Games). Can't wait for Zelda next week.

Because if they didn't then I still have no interest in the 3DS.:D

well yes and no. i am getting a 3DS...i knew that the moment it was announced. but im waiting for the 3DSLite. i was burned by the DSfat and the current 3DS has a few too many problems for me. but E3 didnt convince me to suck it up and get the current model. lots of cracin games there that i will get when i do get a 3DS. but im holding out. its going to be bloody tough mind...lots of good games :S.

I don't need "convincing." I need some good reasons to. And E3 gave me several. Unfortunately, I don't have the money for one, with the games coming out this year, and the Wii U the next.

Well, I was 3DS-curious before, but when they announced a new Smash Brothers for 3DS, all my money is now going towards it.

No, my point is if you think this:

congratulations on going completely off topic. The PSV is way stronger than the 3ds, thats to be expected. Mario kart 3ds looks leagues better than mario kart DS, thats the point I was trying to make

That's to be expected? Both systems will be released in a 7 month span at the same price point. :? Leagues better lol It's looks like they're upresing the same exact assets and refused to use some AA. Nintendo can't even confirm if it'll have 8 players online instead of the ds's four.

Absolutely not pseudo 3d aside the 250 price tag is not what I see me paying for a portable system with portable games.

The games that are exclusive to the 3DS.

That is the most important aspect to a system.

Although I plan on getting both systems anyway.

"Better games" is entirely opinion. Also, didn't the PSP have better specs than the DS? Yea, see how that turned out in terms of games?

mario kart wii took that to a new extreme. It's the main thing that ruined the games. Cluster**** of players + blue shells = almost completely lucked based game.

The fact that Retro is helping the development of this game is also reason to get hyped.

Read the thread title and then my original post. I thought we got past writing imo after every post so fanboys don't go berserk.
