Can't wait for Animal Crossing and Luigi's Mansion 2!

Also, I am disappointed by the battery life. Thing lasted me about 2:40 while playing MGS 3D and a bit of the Resident Evil Demo. I was using Headphones and even played a while without Sound. Wifi was of course on and the brightness was at maximum level because I got the 3D slider at max too. Sure, I am using a lot of battery eating stuff BUT 3D is one of the selling points, and if I turn down the brightness while using 3D it just gets too dark.

dear god man.

Are your eyes made of steel? I can barely handle it at 10%ish.

Wifi is such a battery hog, I've learned. I was getting around 6 - 7 hours with my nyko battery with it turned on, brightness at a minimum, volume on, 3d at max. With wi-fi off I get like 2 hours more of battery life.

Am I honestly the only one who enjoyed Super Paper Mario?

But I will definitely lose hours into Animal Crossing

I enjoyed it, but in comparison to the other two, I didn't care for it much. No replay value. I must've played through the other two at least 7 times each, but I haven't even thought twice about playing through Super Paper Mario a 2nd time.

super paper mario was fun as fuck, seriously

i wouldn't mind seeing another paper mario in the same vein personally

**supersocko** · 12th March 2012

I didn't like Super Paper Mario as a Paper Mario game, but I did enjoy it as it's own little thing.

**~Myst** · 12th March 2012

PM:TTYD Was the best RPG on the Gamecube IMO, so fun. Really good and long story, too.

**Nidhogg** · 13th March 2012

Despite the Circle Pad Pro having its own battery supply, I fucking swear using the CPP actually drains your 3DS battery faster. Can't play Snake Eater 3D no more than 3 hours before it dying while I can play it much much longer without the CPP on. Maybe the wireless data transferring between the 3DS and CPP via the infrared port takes up more power?

PotatoArmada · 13th March 2012

Am I the only one with a CPP that won't react til the stick is all the way to the edge? It makes it really difficult to aim if I just want to turn slowly.

Get it replaced where you bought it, it shouldn't be doing that I don't think.

Well, it would. Not sure if it should be making such a big dent, though.

yeah, that sounds very broken. Mine acts just like the regular pad on the 3DS.

**Wotalt** · 13th March 2012

Is there a way to calibrate the Circle Pad Pro perhaps? I know the left analogue can be calibrated in the system settings.

There is, but I can't rememeber how to get to it...

Some games do it automatically if you turn the cpp on in-game.

**BlkDucky** · 13th March 2012

You can't use these points for the 3DS stuff, can you? Because if not, I might as well just leave my stars (I have uh... 1550 at the moment) until I get enough for something good. Not that there's even anything in there I want but you know.

Did you even read the thread? It's like 4 posts above you.

**Dragoshi1** · 14th March 2012

I have Kid Icarus preordered, gonna pick up the Control Pad Pro thing with it.

Looks amazing, and Multiplayer looks like a blast, too.

Haha, when I first bought the 3ds I thought "hell, this is insane, my eyes keep shifting the focus" but nowadays I just start the console and it's like I am looking at my phone, just that it's in 3D and kickass.

Also, I hate how MGS implemented the Circle Pad Pro. I can't remember if it was like this in the PS2 version, but after you center the Circle Pad again it still moves a little bit and I find it very hard to aim at enemys.

Flem · 14th March 2012

So I got my 3ds on monday, got drunk and tried to play it in full 3D.

Would not recommend the immense mind fuck that took place.

RIPBILLYMAYS · 14th March 2012

Just bought my first eShop card.

Any recommendations? I'm going to buy Colors 3D when it comes out so I'll have $12 leftover.

**Dragoshi1** · 14th March 2012

The Rolling Western game with the Armadillo.

KnightRider25 · 14th March 2012

Well great, looks like the Kid Icarus AR Card are gonna be quire rare: http://www.zeldainformer.com/2012/03...find-some.html

RIPBILLYMAYS · 14th March 2012

I went to Target to get the points card.

Apparently I met Target from United States in Mii Plaza. His favorite game is Mario Kart 7 (Demo Version).

Seems like a pretty cool guy.

**NINTENDUDECT** · 14th March 2012

I got a Kid Icarus card in the recent issue of Game Informer.

**BlkDucky** · 14th March 2012

I can't wait for someone to scan all the cards so I can just print them.

Oh yes.

I just hope it's more like RCT2 and less like RCT3

**ashxu** · 15th March 2012

If it's very similar to RCT2 then I might pick it up. I have a wishlist of 3DS games I want but none of them are really worth buying. (I guess Steam has spoiled me in terms of value for money)

Jund · 15th March 2012

It's probably going to be closer to RCT3 in order to be "kid friendly" though

**ashxu** · 15th March 2012

Explain? I never played RCT3 but from watching friends play it and the general opinion It didn't seem to appeal to me.

I'm pretty sure tons of us played RCT2 successfully as a kid so idk about being kid friendly.

Jund · 15th March 2012

Guest can't die, and it lost its isometric charm to go for low poly models and simple interfaces

Pretty much a given that the interface will be simple for the 3DS, and the isometric part is just my opinion anyway

RCT3 also went for more "realistic" expansion packs, which was a little boring compared to dinosaur rollercoasters
