[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"]The NGP supports all digital copies of PSP games.PurpleMan5000

I didn't know this. Are most of the PSP games available digitally? Specifically, is Valkyria Chronicles 2 available digitally?

yes it is, though I hope they lowered the price

the only thing thats scary for them is the price if the "rumors" and stuff is true

its kinda like a PS3 vs Super Nintendo with a $50 price difference

Nintendo_Ownes7

No that isn't true because the 3DS is more powerful then the Wii and the NGP is less powerful then the 360 and PS3.

So it is closer then you think.

i ment graphics lol. isnt the 3ds just going to be a 3d ds?

You do know there is more than just 3d added to the 3DS? Myself there been a large number of games I want. Example: Pilot Wings, KidI, MegaMan Legends 3, PL vs PW, Starfox 64, Rabbits 3d and so on.HarlockJC

That and Backwards compatability with DS games

PLUS the Virtual console of GB/GBC/GBA games.

Future looks good here...

What is this? Hate on Nintendo hour? The GC, DS, and Wii all have some really awesome games, many of which were developed internally by Nintendo, its safe to say that thhis will happen with the 3DS as well.

With the only decent game announced being a 10 year old Zelda remake its hard to really understand what Nintendo is doing behind closed doors.

On top of the crap first party Nintendo is bringing to the table, the tech inside the 3DS is already dated. Most games look like a glorified PSP game. I'm not asking for 1080P and 60 FPS, i just think their really hurting themselves and us as gamers by not incorporating decent hardware into their systems considering this thing will be on the market going against the likes of a quad core NGP.

I dont see much good coming from the 3DS besides the fact that its "3D".

What side of the table are you on with the 3DS? Will you be the guy that buys this thing with no games riding soley on hope? Or are you just skipping out altogether?

Don't worry dude, i'm sure the NGP will sell too :)

Sony fans: So ya'll heard about that next generation handheld that Sony is going to release in NA in March 2005? Damn.. ya'll not gonna believe this, but it's 8 times more powerful then the DS. 8 TIMES! Hah, 32MB of RAM, wile the petty DS only has 4MB.

****, it's clear as day for nintendo fanboys & sony fanboys alike... PSP gonna anihilate the DS in terms of both popularity and games... Get mad.. nothing you can do about it..

Nintendo fans:

---------------------*fast foward to 2011*------------------>

Nintendo fans:Remember 2005? Happening all over again.

Sony fans:Nah, i don't think so, this time it's way different. Just you wait.

The original DS launched with Super Mario 64. Didn't stop the DS from becoming the best sold handheld of all time. When has "dated" tech ever affected Nintendo handheld sales? Every Nintendo handheld ever released has had inferior graphics to the competition at some point during the lifecycle. Game Gear, Neo Geo Pocket, N-Gage, etc all had better graphics but sold poorly.

Ds is the most successful system ever made, that ALONE will ensure its success and i don't know how you can look at that lineup and only think Zelda is the only decent game.

No it's future looks great, it is Nintendo after all.

I'll be getting it because I want the new Mega man, the OOT remaster, Kid Icarus, MK and the new Pokemon of course, plus it is a Nintento handheld, they are always top notch. Won't be getting it on launch or anything, it's LL looks pretty uninteresting besides Zelda

Seems like the TC is implying that spin-offs of console IPs make for the best handheld games. Couldn't be futher from the truth.I'll takeProf. Layton or Ace Attorney over a handheld version of Resistance or Killzone every time.

The 4DS definately looks alot hotter than the DS did at this point. I was looking at an E3 2004 mag i have and looking at the DS' lineup, no way could you expect the system to sell 140million with hundreds of great games.

No that isn't true because the 3DS is more powerful then the Wii and the NGP is less powerful then the 360 and PS3.

So it is closer then you think.

No it isn't. 3DS's capabilities put it roughly within sixth gen home consoles (ie. DC, PS2, GCN, and Xbox), except with the ability to reproduce some seventh [current] gen shader effects. And even if it was just a "DS 3D", you would be massively overestimating the SNES's capabilities if you think the original DS was comparable to it. DS is in-between a PS1 and N64.

Also while the PSP2 will certainly have the more powerful hardware, it won't by any means be a PS3.

It's 2004 all over again. From the DS to 3DS is a big jump in the tech department. The games look fantasic visually for me and im pleased. Just because Nintendo is porting a 10 year old game with upadted graphics and 3D doesn't mean Nintendo isn't going to make new games like Kid Icarus. Your concerns is just like it was when the DS and PSP were announced and look how it turned out for the DS over the PSP. Big sales and a lot of great games for the DS and I see the same thing happening to the 3DS, try harder.

No, its a brand new system with far superior hardware to the current DS line

Think of what the Game Boy Advance was to the Game Boy and Game Boy Color. The Game Boy Advance was superior to those system because its hardware was upgraded.

The 3DS is the same thing when compared to the DS, DS Lite, and DSi. It boasts superior graphics, hardware, and can do things that none of the current DS systems can do.

Everything about 3DS looks promising and the gap between 3DS and NGP is the less than the gap between DS and PSP power wise the only thing which I'm worried about is the price I guess $250 is too much for casual customers to swallow.

3DS aint stronger than a Wii or Xbox. just produces better shader effects than those 2. 3DS is like Super Gamecube. The NGP is like a Super Xbox Original.

If you think Ocarina of Time is the only "good" game the 3DS is offering, then you have some really discriminating tastes in games.

This.

I may not be sold on the 3DS as of yet but saying OoT3DS is the only good looking game on the system as of now is just flat out ridiculous.

With the NGP giving me more questions than the 3DS and already some games on the 3DS making me want the system already, despite it's "terrible" launch, not to mention that E3 is undoubtedly going to have lots of 3DS games there. I'm not worried. I'm only not picking one up at launch because I won't have the money, but when I get it. I'm sure it will be a great system. Nintendo has yet to let me down with any handheld. Even the DS had a bad launch and first year, but it picked up steam quickly and began to just become a unstoppable juggernaut IMO. I'll gladly put that same faith in the 3DS considering the GBA, GBC and GB before the DS had many great games too.
