1 cheapie 3DS case


This is sad. I've used and abused every Game Boy SP/NDS I've owned to the fullest and each has been a trooper. The 3DS is three months old and it already has a crack in the outer case and one of those scratches on the upper screen from closing the lid. So far this thing is a pile!

Fuck wires.

Also they let you control the Live chat volume separate from the game audio, which is the best shit ever.

Was eyeing these.

Bought these and the Clicky MvC3 Pad. The pad is nearly perfect other than some sponginess in the "joystick" that throws off some moves. If it was a touch more rigid I don't know how I could make it better.

I've never had a gaming headset before, but these seem quite nice.

It was worth the trip to me for Rabbids at the least.

Or so I thought.

Levels are overly long and uninteresting. Collectible tracking is laughably bad or nonexistent. The backgrounds don't scroll smoothly and the whole game looks washed out.

In short, definitely not worth $40, and $16 is a stretch.

That was the one game i was sort of interested on. Im glad Toys R Us did me the favor of being out of it. I thought of price matching at Best Buy but then said screw it. These launch games will all be <$20 soon anyway.

They sound pretty great to me.

Only problem I've had so far is that really low, isolated rumbly noises in certain games were crackling like a motherfucker, not sure if it's an interference issue or what, but I know that could be a problem for living in a city with lots of wireless signals all over the place.

I've only used it with MvC3 so far. I'll report back any irregularities with other games.

It's a Street Fighter kind of day:

Street Fighter IV: Volt (iOS) - $0.99
Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition (PC) - $22.79 from Steam

Lemme know when you wanna get some rounds in once that downloads!

Purchased X Men since it was 400 points this week on XBLA

You might want to contact Nintendo, people have been getting 3ds's replaced because of the screen issue.
