I think the crappy launch has to do with 0 advertising. I haven't seen anything on TV, and I watch a LOT of TV. If I didn't check this thread I wouldn't know when the thing was launching.

The release date is a bit bewildering. The first real push for this thing will be for the holidays, around Thanksgiving. The first AAA title will be out in time and they'll have new colors and possibly a sell-in bundle.
My friend code is 0216-0795-3553.
Played some SF4. As a surprise to no one, it's an excellent conversion hampered by the controls. The D pad actually works well for fighters but the awkward placement makes playing uncomfortable. The analog slider works reasonably well, but I have a hard time with the dragon punch motion.

The bad part-nothing new here, aside from the addition of some muscle cars. It is pretty much PSP Ridge Racer 3, at a slightly lower resolution. Still, PSP RR is my favorite portable game ever, so...
Yeah see that's my issue. It doesn't look as good as the PSP one...and it runs at 30 FPS, right??
You should come try Burnout Paradise and Hot Pursuit some time. But Ridge Racer is Ridge Racer, and Ridge Racer in 3D just has to be awesome.Quote:

Agreed, I'm glued to this. A few things:Quote:

Now how about F-Zero GX with wi-fi ya bastards?
A port of F-Zero GX on this would be absolutely amazing. Still my favorite racing game of all time.
