Nintendo Announces Kid Icarus: Uprising Will Be Bundled With... A Stand?

[QUOTE="LastRambo341"][QUOTE="lightleggy"] gyroscope/touch screen will NEVER replace analogues...not even slightly close.DJ-Lafleur

No it won't. A good amount DS games and probably 3DS games will still use Dpad/analog/buttons mainly,with maybe some secondary touch control. SuperMario 3D land still used the analog nub and buttons.

But you do lose the effect when you press buttons, it only takes a tiny movement to ruin the 3D effect and even my 7 year old has taken to just turning it off now (she does however love that console regardless).

Pricing: Bought the original price, worth it since I have 20 free games

Analogue: Seriously? A second one isn't NEEDED. A gyroscope or touch screen can EASILY replace it

Software: 3 AAA games 8 AA games 15 A games

Nothing to do with fanboyism :lol: its not even an insult. If I see a mistake, I mention it. For example, the 3DS launch line-up was lackluster with the exception of a game or two, but now its irrelevant. According to your logic, you're an attention-seeking troll. Sucks to be a troll and bash everything a company does. But I guess providing valid arguments in Nintendo's defense is "fanboyism", right? ;)

No, because its actually very disfunctional...do you really preffer to use your finger to move the camera instead of using an analogue? there is no opinion here, its inferior, you are blocking visibilty on the screen and you have to move your finger like 3 times to do a 180 spin. the sensibility is worse, it will NEVER replace it.

That's in line with my experience. I do loose it too in MK7, but only during competetive play online. And SF is a competetive game so that makes sense.

Basically when you're mashing like crazy the system itself will move, in my case I move the slide pad with big force to quickly turn or when I am avoiding items.

[QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"][QUOTE="LastRambo341"] LMAO, just being honest and laughing at redundant excuses that always try to bash nintendo and desperately look for their bad quality. Don't you ever get tired of always being against Nintendo no matter what?LastRambo341

Still riding this touch screen and gyro is superior to analog sticks train, eh? Forget about the countless previews of upcoming games(mgs3 and re:revelations) that all say playing with the 2nd analog stick was a much better experience. It's funny to see sheep ridicule ios platforms for touch screen/gyro controls then claim they match or in your case exceed analog sticks in useability.

"the 3DS launch line-up was lackluster with the exception of a game or two, but now its irrelevant."

That's what i just said... Nintendo dropped the price of a underpowered system to something reasonable, fixed the gaping hole in their control set-up and saw 3 AA games release in the latter part of 2011. Attention seeking troll? I'm not the guy trying to argue gyro and touch based control can replace sticks here.;)

[QUOTE="Haziqonfire"]Kid Icarus: Uprising has an uncomfortable control scheme, thus the stand to make it easier to play it. lol @ people saying it's because its so you don't lose the 3D effect. Smh.SapSacPrime

[QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"]Unfortunately for you nintendo has been addressing most of the things I've criticized them about regarding 3DS. pricing 2nd analog stick software I'm sure battery life and hardware build quality will be addressed once the revision comes along. Now all nintendo needs to do is invest in their online infrastructure and make a account based system. Sucks to be a fanboy and praise everything a company does. But I guess only a fanboy would call valid complaints bashing. MFDOOM1983

Yes, people who have used both control setups are saying that dual analog control scheme is simply better. Hell, you can't even strafe around enemies in revelations unless you hold down a modifying button without the additional circle pad. Using the touch screen or gyro controls for camera control on 3ds is exactly the same as ios.

You've been on this touch screen superiority crusade since the 3ds was announced. Instead of making concessions when the circle pad was announced you parade around like a toddler damage controlling. It's not needed yet nintnedo and other devs felt the need for it to exist. Saying its optional for 3d based games is no different than a controller or wheel being optional for PC racers. Sure you play with a keyboard but the experience is infinitely better with the other OPTIONS.

[QUOTE="LastRambo341"][QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"]*Sigh* Most people seemed to have preferred $80 in savings(huge increase in sales) that can be used towards games they actually want. The NES games in particular was filled with garbage long past their prime. GBA games were much better.

Leave it to gamers to b*tch about getting something for free. :lol:

Well one could argue that all these extra peripherals are a sign of poor choice making on Nintendo's part. It's difficult to use both the stylus for the screen and buttons at the same time.

I think its the combination of stylus, L-button, D-pad/Analog and 3D.

I certainly have. It's quite a detracting experience fumbling for the stylus because the developers decided to add some gimmicky touchscreen minigame.

Preference has nothing to do with it when lacking the 2nd analog stick makes doing natural motions like strafing in a shooter more complex. Also please explain how controlling the camera via touch or gyro on ios platforms is any different than 3ds?

Forcing myself to dislike 3DS? Luckily, I don't feel the need to buy a bunch of shovelware trying to convince myself that they're anything but. Hey there's nothing to play on this 3ds, so let me pick up re mercenaries. I can admit something I spent money on was not delivering. No need to try and justify my purchase.

it's an attractive stand, does there have to be any other reason?

[QUOTE="LastRambo341"][QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"] I was referring to other games(Wrecking Crew, Balloon Fight, Yoshi, Ice Climber, Donkey Kong Jr.and NES Open Tournament Golf) although the best version of metroid is zero mission.

for the gamers who like to play at Starbucks or in the library...

I dig it, nothing wrong with FREE.

[QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"]

[QUOTE="LastRambo341"] 1) "Though the best version of metroid is Zero Mission" Thank you for your irrelevant opinion. 2) DUH, they've been playing dual analogue for so long, so ofcourse they'll say its better. Same if you give them KB/M vs Dual analogue, they'll say DA because they PREFER IT. No, its not the same as IoS because the 3DS has two screens along with a circle pad. 3) Actually, ever since I've had a DS, I've seen the superiority ;). Not as embarassing as acting like a manchild forcing everyone to dislike the 3DS :lol: Just because its optional, doesn't mean its superior,. Touch screen is more precise, DA is dated.LastRambo341

" Its not the same as IoS because with 3DS, you have one slider and buttons"

Maybe its your comprehension but I specifically asked about camera control. The d-pad, circle pad and face buttons do not impact camera control in a traditional shooter( fps and tps) or 3d based games similar to ninja gaiden. So explain to me how exactly is MOVING the CAMERA different on ios platforms in comparison to 3ds. On paper and in practice they behave the same.

Actually, I was referring to you a few months back desperately trying to convince people resident evil mercs was anything but crap. BTW 3ds doesn't have any AAA games last time I checked. Maybe you're using GR or MC?

[QUOTE="LastRambo341"][QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"]I take it you agree with me about the nes titles being less than stellar? After all, you can't seem to stop bringing up metroid when I've already stated that I was never referring to that game.

That looks pretty stupid.

But free,so whatevs.

is it backwards compatible? ShuichiChamp24

from the looks of that thing you could pretty much put any hendheld system on it
