I Don't even like handhelds but I want one. The hype is through the roof. Not only is the technology behind it incredible it also has some fantastic games coming for it. Miyamoto has a mario in the works but chose not to show it at this years e3.

I want it and preordering it as soon as available.

It's a handheld

And it's made by Nintendo

I'd be out of my mind not to get one.

Looks like it'll be great. 3rd party support seems like it's already through the roof, not like it wasn't with the DS, but it's got the support of some big names as of so far. And as I mentioned it being a Nintendo product it'll definitely have some high quality software from their end as well.

I got a functional GBA SP for $1 last month. Thrift stores are great.

Make sure you get there first.

Of all the hundreds of hours my friends and I have used our DS systems, the wear and tear does not compare to a DS sitting in a demo station for a day at a retail store.

I might get it once the 2nd version comes out, or else you will just be screwed over by nintendo. The phat DS was pretty much garbage once the ds lite came out, i was embarrassed to play it in public, looked like a kids toy compared to ds lite.

The only DS that I own is the Phat DS from launch day. I shall get the 3DS because it is a purchase worth my money rather than the Lite or i.

I'm more then ready!

... But i'm patient, if a 3DS light is on the cards it'll be the one I buy. Although the 3DS looks small enough as it is ...

As far as I know it's as big as a standard DSi (which I actually like. Feels perfect in my hands compared to my DS Lite)

And that shine. The glossy, blue 3DS just looks way too good to pass up.

I can't wait for 3DS. Until I heard about it I was perfectly content with my trusty ole DS Lite.

I will buy 20 of them then sell 19 for high prices on ebay.

Then I will use the extra money to buy 3DS games.

I'm very excited about the 3DS! I was going to buy a DSi a few months ago, but decided to wait until after E3 and see if the successor was going to be soon. I don't play games much in the summer, so I'm going to wait for the 3DS now.

But I'll also be keeping my PSP.

I'll wait until I see what the PSP2 offers. If one developer's claims are to be believed (dual analog, graphics like a late late Xbox title or nearly 360-launchish, probably BC with PSN games), I'll get the PSP2. But thus far the 3DS does look promising.
