I found this article I whole-heatedly agree with. From what I've seen of the 3DS (borrowing it from friends like a true bum) and other 3D movies and TV shows- I'm of the same mindset- the 3D effect sucks. It's a worthless gimmick. Now that Nintendo is ready to go back to square one with the 3DS, it seems like they're realizing the mistake.

If only they could have seen it with the Virtual Boy.

Bring back the Game Boy!

Nintendo needs to stop being the guinea pig for gimmicks and push on with making a console that supports their exclusive franchises for what they are.

All of their exclusives are remakes of their old games though. If that was the case, I'd just buy myself an old N64 and see if my SNES still works. I cant stand the whole "[insert game here] 64 3D" bull that they are pulling. I tried one of the 3DS and it doesnt appeal to me the way the Gameboy systems did. I miss my Gameboy Advance SP.

That's what I'm saying though. You wouldn't be getting just 3D remakes if they hadn't made a platform centered around the 3D gimmick.

It's going to be a good day when the 3DS shits out. Then maybe people will realize, your feeding the troll when you buy a game for $40, that's 15 years old, that's no better now than it was back then.

I'll be glad to add the 3DS to my collection once the price drops to $50 (we all know it will.)

i used to buy a game boy juts for the pokemon games then when i beat it or got tired of it i sold it
did that 3 times...if i got a 3DS then history would just repeat itself for me

its true the 3d gimmick is dying out faster than a grandpa banging a without viagra
i think only certain games are worth the 3D feature

to be honest im really surprised nintendo lasted this long
but dont get me wrong i have much respect for them

Nintendo is to release a new color for the 3DS. Like that's going to help them sell those things. Nice try Nintendo. You're time's up.

I would agree with you.

But i do have faith hat Nintendo will learn from mistakes. Hopefully in the near future.

They've repeated many mistakes. First motion gaming with the Power Glove... FLOP. Then 3D with the Virtual Boy... FLOP.

Lets look ahead, rather than behind, shall we? Im not going to give up on them just yet.

I WILL, however jump off the Nintendo bandwagon, if the Wii U's controllers are over 100$, and it becomes a FLOP...

First motion gaming with the Power Glove = Flop.

The revenge of motion gamign with the Wii = major success.

Who says history won't repeat itself ?

Debatable.

From a cash standpoint- WIN
From a pissed off fan standpoint- FAIL.

Almost like the Call Of Duty map packs, come to think of it.

Nintendo's 'Golden Age' is over. It's Sony and Microsoft that are still on their game. However, there will probably be another console player in the near future, I believe. *couch* Apple *cough*

Pissed of fans = 30%~ of Nintendo fans.
Happy fans = The rest.

Also, anyway you look at it, cash standpoint is the one that matters.

And Apple will probably never step unto the game business, they are more interested in selling their Macs and iStuff, releasing new versions every 6 months.

New version every 6 months? That's familiar.......
