    I hope Dunban is also an assist trophy.

    Seriously.

    Kirby in a Mario Kart game.

    Who wouldn't want that.

    I don't expect that a game having amibo-related features means that every character with an amibo will be useable in that game

    Actually wait, that's probably true.

    Damnit.

    I'm not as sure if they will be entirely present, but instead have impact. like Samus might give you a kart in mario kart or something, but i would gladly be wrong.

    I don't think it is possible for me to be more hyped than I am for Shulk as a character, both thematically and mechanically. All his different stances are shit hot, and he's actually a huge bad-ass in the context of his own game, and that trailer is great, and and and
    Also the way they reveal Metal Face is almost exactly the same way they revealed Dark Pit, you guys

    Hmm. Gonna have to wait and see if developers treat the N3DS like the Gameboy Color or like the DSi.

    Xenoblade - if you go after Xenogears you end up with something entirely else

    And yeah, you should

    Xenoblade is rad

    Well xenogears may be useful to play as the fifth in an unfinished series in which xenoblade is the second

    Look this is already too complicated I'm going back to the LoZ boards to argue about which timeline is correct.

    I'm an idiot for being surprised that Mega Man isn't going to be one of the figures. Guess it's just that I've been considering him one of the biggest things I am excited for in Smash, and Smash being kind of the thing pushing them.

    And now I am worried that I'm gonna start just searching for Mega Man figures.

    I think the price went down recently. And even if it didn't, there's going to be a port for the upcoming 3DS revision with dual sticks.

    Rumor is that Nintendo are going to make an Amiibo figure for every character in the Smash Bros. lineup. But that's just a rumor so far.

    Eeeeh

    It's a Wii Game

    Like there are 3DS Games that kinda come close to that power already. Resident Evil looked really, really nice.

    The only real issue is with how massive it is, not how gorgeous it is

    Xenoblade is about the art style not the tech

    Playing Bravely Default / P4G / Fire Emblem in the past year or so on handhelds has solidified for me that the platform is surprisingly well-suited to long-ass RPGs. Being able to play a 15 minute chunk of the game and then just put the system into sleep mode makes the whole experience a lot more palatable to me.

    The barrier with Xenoblade 3DS, for me, is that I do not want to buy a system for that game when I have a Wii just sitting here, and I remain unconvinced that that version of the system is going to have a broad base of exclusive software.

    also having to buy the new 3ds model for it kind of makes it more expensive then just getting the game off amazon

    If you have somehow avoided buying a 3DS, though, then waiting for the New 3DS and playing it there is a pretty great option.

    Xenoblade is about the art style not the tech

    there are hard limitations to how much detail the 3ds screen can show, it's only 400x240

    3ds games can design themselves around that, but xenoblade was already having clarity issues at 480p and now it's on a tiny baby screen

    it's just a very odd choice, why not something like super mario galaxy which would probably scale down better

    Japan tends to hate 3D mario games and Nintendo still considers them a primary market unlike literally every other company in the industry not making phone games

    Wouldn't be the first time. Although maybe Roy would be a more direct comparison?

    Couldn't they fix a lot of issues with Xenoblades clutter by moving the omnipresent menu shit to the lower screen?

    You can transfer all your licenses over to a new 3DS, but you have to keep the old one until you have the new one

    I got a 3DS when it came out in March 2011, sold it in like, September 2011, then got a 3DS XL in October 2013. I called Nintendo and said "I got a new 3DS but don't have my old one can I get my old purchases back?" and 10 minutes later had access to all my Ambassador Program games.

    I was shocked at it, though. I've heard that other people had trouble with that sort of situation. They didn't even really question me. The girl on the phone was like "Oh, you have a lot of games on that account. I can see why you want them transferred."
